About this house rental

Nestled in a terrace of classic honey-coloured, Georgian townhouses, just a stone's throw from the town's centre, New Church Cottage is distinguished by its quintessential duck-egg green front door and pretty bay trees framing its front sash window; an elegant touch, setting the theme for the property as soon as you step inside. Tetbury is arguably one of the most stylish market towns in the Cotswolds, thanks to its independent boutiques, fantastic antique shops and royal connections.

Walking straight into the cosy living space of the cottage, you'll get a sense of its rich heritage, dating back to the 18th Century. An antique-surround wood burning stove is the centrepiece of the room, with tasteful historic artwork, Sanderson fabrics and antique furnishings giving the room a timeless, elegant feel. Through the living room sits a small but well-equipped kitchen, hand-painted and stocked with all that you'll need during your stay, with a handy dining space to the rear.

Up the winding staircase, lined with striking Lewis & Wood wallpaper, you'll find two individually designed double bedrooms. The first-floor bedroom has a beautiful, king-size double bed, painted antique furniture and views out to the street below. Up another winding staircase is the ensuite master bedroom, with show-stopping features radiating a feeling of historic luxury. In here, guests will find a vaulted ceiling with painted beams, a sparkling crystal chandelier, a sink-in king-size double bed and plenty of antiques. The cottage's main bathroom is between the ground floor and first floor.

Outside, there's a small courtyard with a table and four chairs where guests can enjoy alfresco dining and relax after a day exploring Tetbury and its surroundings.

Ground Floor

Entrance:
New Church Cottage is set in the middle of a classic Georgian terrace, just off Tetbury's historic High Street. Step through a classic, duck-egg blue front door, into the cottage's living room.

Living Room:
A true slice of Georgian elegance with just the right balance of mod-cons, New Church Cottage's living room manages to expertly blend classic, elegant interiors with plenty of cosy touches to make your stay as comfortable as possible. Decorated in an attractive, classic palette of Cotswold creams, in here you'll find sisal flooring, Georgian-era artwork, antique trinkets and a comfortable two-seater sofa and two armchairs. The centrepiece of the living room is the wood burning stove with its antique surround - the perfect spot to warm up in the cooler months after a busy day in the great Cotswold outdoors. Timeless, elegant and charming in equal measure, the living room offers a real home away from home feel for guests in search of a touch of luxury.

Kitchen/Dining Room:
Through the living room to the rear of the cottage sits the kitchen and dining area, a galley-style space with seating for up to four. In here, the refined feel of the rest of the property continues thanks to plenty of traditional touches, including hand-painted units, Iroko wood worktops and a deep Belfast-style sink. The thoughtful nods back to yester-year, unique seating and clever uses of cupboard space (hidden behind hand-made fabric doors) give the kitchen an authentic, homely yet very stylish feel. It is equipped with everything needed for a self-catering stay. The delightful dining area has a table and seating for four. Just off this area is a utility cupboard and a back door that opens to the cottage's enclosed courtyard.

First Floor

Head up a winding staircase, lined with beautiful, floral Lewis & Wood wallpaper, to the family bathroom, then and up three further steps to the first bedroom.

Family Bathroom:
Half-way up the staircase to the first floor is the family bathroom, complete with a full-size bath and overhead shower. The gorgeous bathroom has a bespoke, marble vanity cabinet, wood panelling and polished limestone tiles and is flooded with light thanks to a long skylight.

Bedroom One:
Sitting on the cottage's first floor, this double bedroom, with a king-size bed and bedside tables with reading lamps, is an homage to antique elegance that's sure to make any guest feel as though they've stumbled into a luxurious yet understated boudoir. Farrow & Ball-hued walls in classic grey tones give the room a feeling of relaxation, contrasted with the pinks and greys of the curtains and blinds, which frame the original, sash window. The bedroom is furnished with a wardrobe, dressing table and a small dresser, plus there's a wall-mounted, Freeview television tucked behind the bedroom's doorway.

Second Floor

Head along the landing and through a glass-paned door to a winding staircase, with a handrail, up to the ensuite master bedroom.

Bedroom Two:
This hidden gem of a bedroom will certainly surprise you, with its impressive, vaulted ceilings and beautiful exposed beams. A luxury, king-size bed is the centrepiece, with an elegant chandelier above, giving the room a luxurious mood. The room is furnished with bedside tables and reading lamps, a chest of drawers, dressing table, full-length mirror and a luggage rack, plus all the refined touches of the rest of the home, with a pretty window overlooking the roof tops opposite.

Ensuite Shower Room:
The stylish, spa-like en-suite shower room features limestone flooring and tiling with a cubicle shower, a toilet, washbasin with a mirror over it and a heated towel rail.

Outside

A real bonus of this townhouse is its compact courtyard, located through the kitchen to the rear of the property. The courtyard is south-west facing and so receives a good amount of sunlight. It is completely private thanks to the pretty Cotswold stone walls that frame it. Guests will find a bistro dining set for four and a charcoal BBQ, making the space ideal for relaxed al fresco dining. Entirely enclosed, little ones and dogs are perfectly safe.

A very comfortable cottage conveniently situated in the centre of Tetbury so easily within walking distance of restaurants & shops. Cottage beautifully furnished. Parking was sometimes a challenge but luckily secured a space outside both on arrival & departure which was good. The owner thoughtfully delivered two fans during our stay which were much appreciated in the very warm weather. The road the cottage is on is busy so there was always traffic noise but that is to be expected in a busy town like Tetbury. A washing up bowl in the kitchen sink would be useful as would a tray for placing/draining washed pots. There was no washing up liquid in the kitchen & we did not feel it necessary to use the dishwasher as we didn’t cook at all during our stay,

We thoroughly enjoyed our stay at New Church cottage. The cottage was spotlessly clean, and well equipped. We really appreciated the lovely touches of flowers, milk and an apple pie. The cottage was warm and cosy, the beds were very comfortable. We enjoyed the location in the centre of Tetbury.

Traveling from Chicago, the main reason I chose New Church Cottage for our visit to the Cotswolds was that it was in walking distance to restaurants and pubs. We didn't want to have a car because we aren't practiced at driving on the left, so walkability was important. The cottage was very convenient for exploring the charming village of Tetbury. We definitely needed to book transport in advance, but it worked out. We were able to get rides back and forth from Kemble train station for excursions to Bath and to and from Paddington. The cottage was very clean, furniture was comfortable, beds and bedding all great. Many thanks for a memorable stay.

Comfortable stay. comfortable beds, well decorated. Nice welcoming touches. Warm and cosy Some challenges with parking and noise outside. Would benefit from additional teatowel and a draining surface for dishes beside the sink. Gutter at back porch needs cleaning as it is leaking inside and dripping down kitchen wall.

When entering the cottage there is a damp musty smell - Bins outside were full so our waste is in bags on the floor in the garden - 1 dishcloth ? 3 dishwasher tablets? Most importantly no mention that the cottage is on a busy road I have not slept more than 2 hours each night due to heavy constant road noise!!!

Our family had a lovely stay at the New Church Cottage. It was a beautiful, traditionally decorated home that was in a great location to enjoy Tetbury and the Cotswold’s area. Shops, restaurants and grocery stores in very close walking distance so it was very convenient. We definitely highly recommend this property.

We received full details before we arrived, making it easy to gain access to the beautiful cottage and find our parking space. The cottage was beautifully decorated, furnished and spotless. Everything we needed was provided. Having a local co op nearby for us to purchase food. We sat in the court yard and played scrabble as a family. We had some lovely walks daily and some lovely meals out in Tetburys local restaurants. Everything was on our doorstep which was ideal. The locals were so friendly. We had such a lovely sumner break and we made some lasting memories, with the cottage being a big part of them.
