Self catering accommodation in Castle Combe sleeps 6.
Features include: • Open Fire or Woodburning Stove • Pub near by • Easy Walking Access • Cottage Sleeps 6
Accommodation overview: The Gates details
Voted England's prettiest village, Castle Combe in the Cotswolds is the perfect destination should you wish to relax, walk and enjoy the slow pace of country life and yet it is only a short drive from the cosmopolitan cities of Bath and Bristol, each offering a fantastic array of shops, restaurants, theatres and bars.
This historic property, known as the Gates, is set in the very heart of the idyllic and popular village of Castle Combe. Little has changed since the 15th century with no street lights or TV aerials to detract from the village's ancient beauty. All the buildings are listed and nestled in the wooded Cotswold valley. The atmosphere is absolutely breathtaking.
The position of the Gates could not be better; opposite the centrepiece of the village, the Medieval Market Cross. The property is positioned on the edge of the village churchyard with its attractive clock tower. Indeed, the gable wall in the property features a Gothic window originally from the church. Some parts of the house date back to Medieval times and most of the roof timbers are over 400 years old. In 2003 this holiday retreat was sadly devastated by fire but the building has been beautifully and sympathetically restored retaining all the character of the original structure yet offering attractive accommodation with excellent facilities.

It has a wealth of interesting features including fabulous marble radiators and handsome oak doors reclaimed from a Cotswold Manor House. The large modern kitchen has a range cooker, dishwasher, etc and the dining table comfortably seats 8. An additional seating area means the kitchen is the sociable place to hang out whether cooking or relaxing and pouring the wine! South-facing triple bi-fold doors open onto the delightful enclosed garden bringing the outside indoors and making al fresco dining an easy option. All 3 en-suite bedrooms are equally well equipped so couples and families travelling together can all enjoy a master suite each. The additional cosy sitting room is well equipped with local maps and guidebooks for you to borrow during your stay. The cottage is heated with underfloor heating throughout the downstairs area & also in all the bathrooms so it is always warm underfoot. The bedrooms have central heating.
Little Maunditts Cottage is tucked into a quiet lane in the very centre of the historic village of Sherston. Sherston was voted by The Times newspaper as the 5th most desirable place to live in Britain! This delightful and friendly village hosts many traditional events and is especially renowned for the annual Boules Tournament weekend in July which attracts teams from all over the country - and even from France. Little Maunditts is within easy walking distance of the village centre where you will find the excellent Rattlebone Pub, a wine shop, Tucks Farm shop & florist, and the community run Post Office and Village Stores. There are plenty of wonderful scenic Cotswold walks both direct from the doorstep of the cottage or a short drive away.
There is easy access to nearby Tetbury, renowned for its wealth of antique shops, and also close to Prince Charles' residence at Highgrove (gardens open in summer, advance booking required). The National Arboretum at Westonbirt is only 5 miles away and a must-visit at any time of year but especially so when the autumn colours put on a fantastic show. Also 5 miles away is the historic town of Malmesbury, the oldest borough in England, with its' impressive semi-ruined Abbey and picturesque winding streets.
A short drive away are the Roman towns of Bath and Cirencester, the Stroud Valleys, the Marlborough Downs and the Cotswold villages of Lacock and Castle Combe. Castle Combe is frequently voted the prettiest village in England and Lacock is almost entirely owned by the National Trust and is home to the Fox Talbot Museum of Photography and Lacock Abbey. Lacock is often used as a film set for period dramas such as Pride and Prejudice and Cranham and was used in the Harry potter films. Castle Combe was the set for the original Dr Dolittle film and, more recently, Warhorse. It is an also a leisurely and scenic drive to the popular (but usually much busier) Cotswold destinations of Burford, Stow-In-the-Wold, Bourton-On-The-Water and Moreton-In-Marsh.
Little Maunditts is a perfect location for visiting the Badminton Horse Trials, Fairford Airshow or the Womad festival.
