Asphodel Cottage

About

Dating back to 1624 and immaculately restored this beautiful one bedroom designer cottage simply oozes character. Great care has been taken in creating a unique interior of great style. Original features have been retained with natural floors, beamed ceilings and inglenook fireplace. There are velvet sofas, oriental carpets, fine art and classic books. Lighting is discrete whilst a log stove provides a delightful atmosphere.

Upstairs the delightful and romantic bedroom with ensuite bathroom sits under the ancient beamed roof. With its own good sized garden and panoramic views it is located in the idyllic village of Tarlton whilst being close to chic Cirencester and historic Tetbury.

Create a meal in the hand-made kitchen before dining on the farmhouse table using vintage china and crystal glasses. There is a Nespresso machine and milk frother for coffees. The bathroom features a Venetian mirror, deep-pile towels, complimentary toiletries and a free-standing bath (heaps of hot water) with country views. 

The latest in LED televisions, with freeview and Apple TV is located upstairs in the bedroom (not available downstairs) together with a DVD player and varied films. There is unlimited free and upgraded high speed wi-fi. 

Private off street parking for two medium or one large car. Large private garden with outdoor sofa seating area with soft cushions (stored in box). The orchard area has a table and two chairs .

Tarlton is a pretty and sleepy hamlet, off the beaten track but within ten minutes of the historic market towns of Cirencester and Tetbury. A mile away via country path or dirt road is the local pub, the Tunnel House, originally built to house workers on the canal tunnel, whose 19th century classical entrance is adjacent. For excellent gastro-pubs The Bell at Sapperton, Wild Duck, Trouble House Inn, Potting Shed and Village Pub Barnsley are within 10 mins drive. For fine dining try Barnsley House, Calcot Manor or The Rectory.

Babes in arms and small well behaved pets possible upon request. There is a pet charge of £30 per pet per stay, payable upon confirmation and subject to acceptance.
