It is our family home - not a show home! - and we rent it occasionally when we are away. You will be close to everything as we are just a 5min walk to the beautiful centre of bibury village and the world recognised ANOB, our village church, the world famous Arlington Row, the river Coln which runs through the village all the way to Coln St Aldwyns, a lovely walk in spring and summer), the trout farm and Bibury’s water meadow (opposite the river and Arlington Row). The swan (hotel/bar/restaurant), twig (village shop) Catherine wheel (pub) and ice cream parlour are all less than a 10 minutes walk too! Upfront: this is our family home, not a show home, our kitchen is built from breeze blocks and scaffold boards that we sanded and varnished by hand ourselves!… the walls are a little uneven BUT all our bathrooms, heating electrics and plumbing are all brand new and all spaces other than the kitchen and hallway have been renovated in the past 2 years. XxxPlease check the photos as the house is as you see it on these images!xxxx The benefit: you get a lot of space and a great location for your money with lots of extras (did we mention the hot tub!?!)… and you can park easily with 2 parking spaces in the drive. Our house compromises a large lounge, separate kitchen with dining space, office/bed room, plus a bathroom and separate WC on the ground floor. Upstairs we have two good sized bedrooms with kingsize beds, plus a small child’s room with a bunk bed and the family bathroom with shower and bath. There is an extra double sofa bed in the ground floor office and in the second bedroom if needed. Outside there is a large private front and back garden with secure bike storage and a ninja gym, bbq, fire pit with stone seating, 2 story tree house plus outdoor seating and dining. We also have a hot tub which we provide free to guests but ask that they bring their own towels or pay an additional fee for the extra laundry that the hot tub creates! We have a tortoise called mikey who lives in the front garden - if guests are happy to feed him that is great otherwise we ask our lovely neighbours to help out! The rear garden backs on to a well established wood and the sound of birds in the morning and evening with the dappled sunlight setting through the trees can make the experience of sitting and eating a family breakfast or enjoying a cold glass of wine of an evening with family and friends a true joy! All areas other than attic and shed All remote access although we are always available If you need us! Bibury is a small but vibrant village in the centre of the Cotswolds, it is a world-famous AONB ( Area of outstanding national beauty) and it’s character is protected by conservation laws with Beautiful Arlington Row and it’s watermeadows at its centre.

Watermeadows are classified as a site of significant scientific interest Openhearted wildlife that can be seen in the Meadows and the surrounding river cone which taper through the village. The beautiful church and school in Bibury’s centre which You can walk around on a wet or warm day through the traditional rose covered Cotswold stone houses of the village; our Church is often open for tourists (and locals!) to look round and the roses in the church garden are tended to almost daily and are outstanding in summer to see. There is a lovely coffee shop with some great fresh cakes for sale daily (the twig) , 2 pubs (the Catherine wheel and The Swan) plus the trout farm shop in the village. The trout farm is also a tourist attraction where you can catch your own trout for dinner (or just buy one at the farm shop counter!).
