About this house rental
Butterrow Gate is a house resting in Stroud, sleeping two people in one bedroom.
Butterrow Gate is an eye-catching property which sleeps two guests, in one lovely bedroom, with a ground floor bathroom. This unique Grade II listed property was constructed in 1825 as the toll house to service the turnpike road linking Stroud to Cirencester, and is one of the few toll houses in the UK to still have the original wooden toll charges board fixed to the front of the building.
An early example of Gothic architectural revival built from Cotswold stone, Butterrow Gate retains many character features including stone mullion windows, exposed Cotswold stone walls, flagstone flooring and a Cotswold stone fireplace with a wood burning stove. Modern facilities such as wireless internet access, a Freesat TV with DVD player, and underfloor heating complement the traditional features, and there is an elevated patio garden with stunning views, and free on-street parking is readily available.
Butterrow Gate is located on the outskirts of the bustling market town of Stroud, famed for its independent shops, galleries and cafes. Stroud hosts an award-winning Farmers' Market every Saturday, and there is an organic farm shop just a short drive from the property. The town has a wide range of restaurants and pubs, the closest to Butterrow Gate being The Prince Albert Inn which is dog friendly and often has live music nights.
Surrounded by the Cotswolds Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty, there are many lovely cycle routes and walks on its doorstep, including those through Rodborough Common which has spectacular views across Woodchester Valley and to the River Seven on a clear day. The River Frome flows through Stroud itself and has a pleasant tow path which follows the course of the river, passing by the Stroud Brewery, just a half hour stroll from the property. Stroud is well placed for visiting the many historic towns of the South Cotswolds, including Painswick, Nailsworth, Minchinhampton and Cirencester. Further afield destinations such as Bath, Cheltenham and Oxford are within easy reach for day trips.
Amenities: The cottage retains many character features including stone mullion windows, exposed Cotswold stone walls, flagstone flooring and a Cotswold stone fireplace with a woodburning stove. Facilities include Wi-Fi, freesat TV with DVD player, gas central heating with underfloor heating.
Well equiped kitchen with electric oven with 4-ring induction hob, fridge with small freezer compartment, dishwasher, cafetiere, kettle and toaster.
Washing machine located in entrance hall. Electricity and gas included in rent.
An initial basket of logs is provided for the woodburning stove from September to April (further supplies can be purchased locally), outside these dates guests are welcome to purchase their own.
Bed linen and towels inc. in rent.
Patio, courtyard garden with furniture and chiminea (summer only). One dedicated parking space available. Sorry, no smoking and children under 8 not permitted. Shop 0.9 miles, variety of pubs 0.5 miles.
Region: Visitors to the Cotswolds have long treasured memories of charming towns and villages built from the famous honey-coloured stone, it now boasts a thriving community of contemporary artists working from studios and shops throughout the area.
Town: The town of Stroud is known as the less commercial corner of the Cotswolds, a somewhat bohemian collection of buildings, squares and lanes, tucked into the green hills which once housed countless sheep during the town’s time as the centre of the Cotswold’s woollen industry. Today, Stroud welcomes visitors to its friendly cafes, quaint bookshops, independent shops and tempting eateries. Described by Jasper Conran as the ‘Covent Garden of the Cotswolds’, Stroud has a regular farmers' market, year-round programmes of music and theatre, a thriving arts scene and a state-of-the-art cinema. For simply relaxing, Stratford Park on the edge of town offers lakeside walks, indoor and outdoor swimming pools, and a museum. Head out of town to explore the five sweeping valleys which surround it, with country lanes just made for walking or cycling.
