About Woodbine Cottage

Woodbine Cottage lies in the idyllic Cotswold hamlet of Donnington, beautifully set in the glorious countryside of an 'Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty' and within a conservation region. Totally unspoilt and peaceful, Donnington retains the charm of English village life, and is one mile from the famous market town of Stow-on-the-Wold, and close to the quintessential English villages of Bourton-On-the-Water, the Slaughters and the Swells.
Woodbine Cottage is a Grade II listed building, being of historical and architectural interest. Built of local stone, with a traditional stone-tiled roof, parts of the cottage date from the 17th century and the rest from the 19th century. Accommodating up to 4 people (plus cot), Woodbine Cottage is a cosy hideaway, nestling down a quiet lane. There is a pretty garden to the rear, fully enclosed, with roses, honeysuckle and herbs.
Accommodation is on two floors.
Lower level - A welcoming lounge, with exposed beams and a Cotswold stone fireplace. Comfortable seating and a dining table and chairs. The kitchen is excellently equipped, with hand-made, antiqued pine units, and Belfast sink.
Upper level - Double bedroom, with a beautiful iron bedstead. Views over the garden and countryside beyond. The twin bedroom is delightfully light and fresh, with two single wooden beds. The bathroom has a bath, over-bath electric shower and shower screen, W.C. and wash basin.
We provide a dishwasher; washing machine/dryer; electric double oven (one fan assisted), with ceramic hob.; microwave; television and DVD player; radio/casette/CD player; larder fridge. A high chair and travel cot can also be supplied - please specify when booking, as for hygiene reasons we do not leave these permanently at the cottage.
We also supply a range of books, board games and DVDs, along with an Information Pack with details of places to eat, drink and visit.
