The Vine - A Luxurious Cotswold Escape for Two.

Savour the stunning spring scapes of the Cotswolds with a last-minute escape to The Vine, a stylish 5★ hideaway for two in the heart of Winchcombe. This light, modern apartment offers the perfect base for exploring the Cotswolds’ charming villages, independent shops, and scenic walking trails.
Available this March and during Cheltenham Gold Cup Week.

Your host, Amanda, has been welcoming guests for over a decade, and it shows in the luxurious touches and thoughtful details throughout this beautifully appointed space.

The Vine is a bespoke 5★ apartment designed for two, with generous outdoor space and a charming breeze house where you can relax and take in the gorgeous views in complete peace. Located just 8 miles north of Cheltenham, Winchcombe is the perfect base for exploring the picturesque villages of the north Cotswolds. The property also includes a private parking space on our driveway.

If you’re a racing enthusiast, Prestbury Park—home of the famous Cheltenham Gold Cup—is only a short drive away. With so much to discover in the area, you can enjoy wonderful walks straight from the doorstep or experience one of Cheltenham’s many festivals.

We have availability from 7th March. This is a perfect time to experience the picturesque Cotswolds during the quieter winter months. Perfect for winter walks or cosy pubs lunches.

The blend of a warm, modern interior filled with natural light and generous outdoor garden space makes The Vine a true gem—one that guests have been returning to ever since it opened. Downstairs, underfloor heating creates a cosy atmosphere, while the sky lantern and wide patio doors flood the space with daylight. You can unwind on the large sofa and watch nature right outside your door, or—if you need to work during your stay—take advantage of the fast Wi-Fi and bright, airy setting, with the dining table doubling perfectly as a desk.

The charming village of Broadway is just 5 miles away, known for its elegant high street and year-round twinkling lights. You can even hop aboard the heritage GWR steam train to explore nearby villages in classic Cotswold style.

And after a day discovering the area’s beautiful towns and countryside, return to the peace and quiet of The Vine on Langley Road—your haven in the Cotswolds.

Enter through your own private entrance into the limestone-floored sitting room, slip off your shoes, and enjoy the comfort of underfloor heating as you relax on the handmade Heals of London sofa. A wall-mounted 50-inch TV is perfect for catching up on sport or unwinding after a day exploring.

Upstairs, the bedroom suite features an inviting John Lewis king-size bed dressed in luxurious, high-thread-count Egyptian cotton sheets and quilted covers. From the window, you can enjoy views towards Cleeve Hill, the highest point in the Cotswolds. The bathroom includes a slipper bath and separate shower, with underfloor-heated Travertine tiles to keep you cosy, and views out to Langley Hill.

Whether you’re cooking or ordering a takeaway, the granite-topped dining table—accented by Jasper Conran wall lighting—provides a stylish place to eat. A dishwasher makes tidying up effortless.

The landscaped terrace is yours to enjoy, whether you’re firing up the BBQ or relaxing with a chilled glass of wine from the fridge. Beyond the terrace, the lawn stretches out to open countryside and the rolling Cotswold hills.

Unlike many properties in Winchcombe, we offer a private parking space on our own driveway—a rare luxury in the town—and we’re only a short walk from the centre.

Why Winchcombe?
Often described as the hidden gem of the Cotswolds, Winchcombe truly has it all—even its own castle. Sudeley Castle, renowned for its 1,000 years of royal history and magnificent gardens, is just a short walk from the property.

Winchcombe is a paradise for walkers: the Cotswold Way, Gloucestershire Way, and Wychavon Way all pass through the town, while the Wardens Way and Windrush Way both start and finish here. For those seeking history and breathtaking scenery, Belas Knap, a Neolithic long barrow perched above Humblebee Wood, offers spectacular panoramic views. You can also discover the remains of a Roman villa hidden in a peaceful valley on lower ground.

The town proudly holds Walkers Are Welcome status and hosts an annual walking festival each May, as well as a growing music and arts festival. Despite being less well known than some of the classic Cotswold hotspots, Winchcombe enjoys a reputation as a truly fabulous destination, with more than 60 charming independent shops that draw in locals and visitors year-round.

Stroll among centuries-old buildings, including beautifully preserved medieval structures and several 15th-century coaching inns—now welcoming restaurants—all set against the backdrop of rolling countryside that stretches for miles.

So what are you waiting for? Come and discover Winchcombe.
The apartment is heated and features a kitchen and a patio, and there's space to spread out with a separate bedroom. Guests can expect to find free WiFi and a TV with a DVD player. Beds sport Egyptian cotton sheets and the bathroom offers a hair dryer. Other standard amenities include a fenced private yard, a coffee maker, and a dining table. Limited housekeeping is available.

Home from home in Winchcombe

Super comfy holiday home, super clean and all mod cons. Located in a lovely quiet secluded area but close enough to the towns amenities. Beautiful garden area for lazy evenings with a glass of wine taking in the open views! If you were to stay in November/December would highly recommend the Spectacle of Light at Sudeley Castle. The Vine is well placed for visiting many of the splendour’s of the Cotswolds. Highly recommend.

Lovely Stay

The Vine had everything and more that we required. The accommodation was very clean and well apportioned with quality all around. The garden was a lovely addition especially appreciated on two very hot days. Perfect location for exploring surrounding the area. There was no need to use the car as there is plenty of walking, history and places to eat in and around Winchcombe. We really enjoyed our holiday. Thank you.

Fantastic week long stay!

This was the 1st time we’d done a self catering holiday in the UK and everything was fantastic. The property is perfect for a week or even a 2 week stay. Everything has been done to a very high standard and it was lovely and clean, more important than ever in the current climate. The location is spot on, plenty of places to eat and drink in the village which is less than a 10 minute walk away. Amanda and Paul are great hosts, on hand if you need them but they respect your privacy. We will definitely return to this peaceful property in a lovely setting.

Excellent!

An excellent holiday home on the edge of Winchcombe with fabulous views. The property was of a high standard and obviously well looked after by Amanda and Paul. It had everything we needed for a great holiday - including the sunshine 🌞 The village is a short stroll away and has plenty of lovely places to eat most of them with outdoor gardens- which was ideal in the current climate. Winchcombe is a quaint Cotswold village without the usual crowds and ideally located for walking and exploring the rest of the Cotswolds.

Impeccable apartment

This was our first visit to the Cotswolds and The Vine was the perfect property from which to explore. The apartment itself was a joy to stay in, beautifully furnished in a lovely setting with great views. It is located in a quiet road yet only a short walk to the village centre, restaurants, pubs, shops, Sudeley castle & so many fantastic 'walks'. Amanda and Paul were also excellent hosts, always available if needed. 10 out of 10 in every respect!

Great base to explore the Cotswolds.

The Vine is just a short stroll away from Winchcombe, easy walk to dine in town. It is well situated to explore all the beautiful Cotswold towns and villages. The property is clean, comfortable and ideal for two people. The 'Breeze' is a lovely addition in the garden to enjoy a G & T even in the rain with the warm patio heater and comfy seats. We enjoyed our stay even though the weather was challenging at times.

Very comfortable, stylish accommodation

We spent 5 days at The Vine in early December. After sightseeing & walking in the cold & in heavy rain, The Vine was a lovely, warm, comfortable place to return to. The location is surprisingly quiet but also provides good access to Winchcombe which is just a short walk away. Loved the roof lantern, spacious bedroom & views from the living area. Many thanks to Amanda for all the goodies.
