About this cottage rental
Surrounded by trees and the sound of birdsong, with gently rolling hills in the background, Chestnut Cottage offers a stylish place to stay within walking distance of Winchcombe. As you turn off the main road onto the tiny tree-lined country lane, the scene is set perfectly for your stay.
The entrance door leads into a long hallway, which runs in both directions, the wooden flooring creates a warm feel and multiple windows let in plenty of natural light. There are two spacious king-size bedrooms, with windows overlooking a green paddock to the rear, a beautiful bathroom with a double-ended bathtub, perfect for lazy bubble-filled soaks and a large, separate shower, plus a sunny kitchen-diner and a living room, with double doors out to a private patio.
Outside there is an enclosed private patio, with an access gate into the large paddock, surrounded by trees. Enjoy relaxed meals from the barbecue and soak up the rural landscape that surrounds you. The owners have rescue hens and lovely fresh eggs will often be available to purchase from an honesty box.
Ground Floor
Entrance Hall:
The long entrance hall runs in both directions from the front door with a wooden floor underfoot and plenty of windows letting in natural light. The natural lay of the land is sloping and the hall is multi-level, with two steps down towards the bathroom, two steps up to one of the bedrooms and two further steps up to the living areas. A long full-length mirror hangs at one end and the walls are lined with cupboards, providing useful storage.
Kitchen/Diner:
This bright, sunny room has a warm wooden floor, windows looking out to the courtyard at the front and paddock to the rear and has everything you need to prepare delicious meals. The well-equipped kitchen includes a range of built-in appliances with a washer-dryer, dishwasher and fridge with a small freezer box hidden neatly behind the smooth grey cupboard doors. A traditional butlers sink is set beneath the window looking out over the countryside beyond. The round wooden dining table seats four comfortably and is a cosy spot for sunny breakfasts and relaxed evening meals.
Living Room:
From the kitchen, there is a door into the living room, which is a light and airy space with windows on two sides and double doors out to the private patio. Bright pops of colour come from the two velvet sofas, one cobalt blue, the other moss green and a honey-hued rug covering the wooden floor. There's further seating with a mid-century leather chair set by the patio doors. Industrial style shelving highlights the rural, yet modern feel as does the stylish wall mirror, lighting, circular glass coffee table and wooden TV unit which houses the smart TV.
Bedroom One:
With a super-soft carpet on the floor and a comfortable king-size bed, strewn with woollen cushions and a William Morris design bedspread, this spacious room is warm and inviting. Beautiful rural views add to the feeling of calm and a glass pendant light adds a touch of glamour. Twin bedside tables stand on either side of the bed with reading lamps and storage comes in the form of a chest of drawers. There are also three hanging hooks on the wall and further storage can be found in the hallway cupboards.
Bedroom Two:
Boasting the same lovely rural views as bedroom one, this is a beautifully light and spacious room. The king-size bed has a William Morris bedspread and print cushions and two bedside tables with on-trend pineapple reading lamps sitting on either side. There's a chest of drawers, a dressing table and two hanging hooks, plus a wardrobe with hanging space can be found in the hall opposite the bedroom door.
Bathroom/Shower Room:
After a day tramping through the countryside retreat to this stylish and spacious bathroom, pour a glass of something chilled, fill the standalone bathtub with bubbles and relax. There's also a separate rainfall shower, WC, and a vanity unit with a handbasin and a well-lit mirror.
Outside
To the rear of the property, accessed through the double patio doors in the living room there is a private patio, enclosed by a picket fence and overlooking a grassy, tree-lined paddock. Guests are welcome to enjoy this space and there is an access gate from your patio. There's a wooden table and bench-style seating, perfect for alfresco meals or simply enjoying a drink as you soak up the countryside views around you. A charcoal barbecue is also provided and there is parking for two/three cars in the courtyard at the front of the cottage.

We loved Chestnut Cottage. We had a lovely 4 nights. The property is beautifully decorated, homely and in a great location. Great walks and a good field for our dog. We would definitely recommend and would really love to return. We can’t fault anything!

Met up with my friend for a week at Chesnut Cottage and we absolutely loved it. The house is very spacious and very well presented and had everything we needed. The location is fabulous - so quiet but equally so close to everything. The whole experience from booking to leaving at the end of the holiday was smooth and issue free. We will definitely be returning!

Chestnut Cottage was perfect in every way! We loved our stay and everything about it exceeded our expectations! It is lovely to have luxury dog friendly accommodation. With walks straight from the cottage, we hardly used our car for the whole week. We will definitely book with Bolthole Retreats again and recommend to friends and family.

Chestnut cottage was absolutely delightful. Was of a very high standard and very well equipped. We had booked for a long weekend to attend the Fantasy Forest Festival at Sudely Castle. The location of the cottage was excellent and very private. The cleanliness was first class. The kitchen was very well equipped. The bathroom was superb and made me have "bathroom envy". The furnishing were of top quality and the owners had put a lot of effort into even the smallest of details to make the cottage feel luxurious as well as cosy and welcoming. I would definitely stay at Chestnut Cottage again and would highly recommend.

The accommodation was in very good order, spacious and well appointed. As walkers the property was well located about 1 mile from the centre of Winchcombe. We wouldn't hesitate to recommend this property to friends .

Generally all round very accommodating. Lovely farm eggs, good parking. Lovely peaceful atmosphere. Only complaint is you need to update your TV software, Lots of channels weren't on the TV. It didn't spoil the holiday.

We had an excellent long weekend stay at Chestnut Cottage. The property was lovely, with no expense spared on the interior and the amenities there.
The location was also great, and within easy reach of nearby places such as Winchcombe and Cheltenham.
The hosts were also available when needed, with help given straight away when struggling with the entry code.
Would definitely recommend.

We enjoyed our stay in this cosy ,well equipped and peaceful cottage in the Cotswolds.The cottage is in a great location for walks,visiting Winchcombe,Sudeley castle and the local preserved railway.We would recommend it to anyone wanting a relaxing and peaceful holiday.

We had a lovely stay at the cottage. The only thing that could be improved is signage. We went down the wrong turning as we followed the satnav and it added about an hour on our drive! As it was all back roads, cows and sheep! No signage. If there was a sign at the entrance of the road it would have saved a lot of stress. The cottage is great, warm and cosy. Beautiful surroundings. The bathroom is amazing with underfloor heating. To eat you need to drive. So I wouldn't recommend it if you were hoping to travel there by train unless you didn't mind taxis to supermarkets or pubs, ect. We would stay again.

Would highly recommend. The property is finished to a high standard very clean and well maintained. Our only constructive feedback would be to have a hoover in the property, we have two young children so it would have been great to be able to clean up a bit more ourselves.

A gem in the Cotswolds
Chestnut Cottage is one of 3 cottages located within the grounds of Postlip House. The grounds are quintessential English country house and are beautifully maintained. This follows through to the cottages. Chestnut Cottage was decorated and furnished to a very high standard, with quality fixtures and fittings. The 2 bedrooms are very comfortably furnished, with the beds being super comfortable. The bathroom is gorgeous - a large shower and a wonderful freestanding bath. The kitchen has quality Siemens appliances and is well equipped for 4. Sitting room is very stylish in a mid century style. Outside is a substantial (heavy!) wooden table and chairs. The patio is paved and enclosed. Everything has been done to a high standard and I’d not hesitate to recommend it.
Winchcombe itself is a typical Cotswold market town with a good selection of shops and pubs. Recommend the White Hart Inn for food and service. It’s within walking distance but not on the main road as it’s quite busy. However, parking (in June) easy and cheap/free.

Chestnut Cottage
Newly refurbished property, finished to a high standard. Stylishly and comfortably furnished. Quiet and peaceful area. Overlooks a large, fenced grass area at the back which is great for the dog. Excellent location to explore the Cotswolds. Only a short walk from Winchcombe. Lovely place to relax and unwind.
