Fairview Cottage

About this property

Please note: The first floor kingsize double with ensuite also contains two single beds, with the area being seperated by a curtain. Fairview provides a warm and high quality base from which to explore the Cotswolds. Situated in the heart of the Cotswolds, approximately 12 mins from Burford, Stow on the Wold and Chipping Norton, this delightful holiday cottage offers an excellent standard of self catering accommodation. The property sits on the edge of the village and overlooks fields to the rear and enjoys a good size garden for outdoor entertaining. There are three large bedrooms, (with a further fourth off one bedroom) plus three ensuite bathrooms. There is newly re-opened pub in the village The Hare in Milton (glowingly reviewed by Giles Coren in The Times Magazine), and other pubs nearby, walks from your front door PLUS the Daylesford Organic Farmshop nearby, this is an excellent holiday cottage option.

Burford is possibly one of, if not THE most famous of the Cotswolds' locations. With its medieval bridge, old stone houses and attractive Tudor and Georgian frontages, Burford is justifiably one of the most picturesque towns in England. Often referred to as the 'Gateway to the Cotswolds', the town was originally a fortified Anglo-Saxon ford which later grew to be an important regional crossroads and wealthy wool town. Located mid way between Oxford and Cheltenham (25 mins each away) it is a little haven of history and beauty that many come to fall in love with when they visit.

The 16th century Tolsey building, once the meeting place for medieval merchants, now houses The Tolsey Museum, a delightful local museum illustrating the town's social and industrial past. The church is stunning, a real gem architecturally with many interesting memorials charting some of Burford's great families. There is also the signature, on the baptisimal font, of Antony Sedley, one of the Levellers besieged in the church in 1649 - three of the ringleaders were executed by Oliver Cromwell's men in the churchyard. History awaits!

With little changing over the centuries, Burford is now very popular with visitors, both for its beauty and history but also for its shopping and antiques, and for the wide variety of places to eat, with restaurants, pubs and teashops. It is an ideal base for visiting The Cotswolds area as it is within easy driving distance of popular attractions such as Blenheim Palace, Sudley Castle, Warwick Castle and several National Trust Houses and Gardens. Bourton on the Water, Bibury, Cirencester and Stow on the Wold are all with 25 minutes from the property.
