Otters View

Otters View suits families and larger groups after a comfortable base in the Cotswolds. The whole house is yours, with five bedrooms spread across two floors and four bathrooms to match. Two super-king suites have ensuite baths and walk-in showers; bedrooms three and four offer alternatives for children or additional guests, with one accessible via a glass walkway. Travel cots, a highchair and stairgate are available if needed.

The ground floor centres on an open-plan living area with a woodburner, 50-inch television and patio doors onto decking. The kitchen is fully equipped for cooking, with electric oven and hob, dishwasher, wine cooler and coffee machine. There is a second living room without a television, and a utility room with washing machine. Upstairs, multiple bedrooms have patio doors onto balconies. Essentials are covered—heating, electricity, wi-fi, bed linen and towels are included, along with logs for the woodburner.

The property sits within a 450-acre estate shared with eight other houses, where guests can use an indoor swimming pool, sauna, steam room and gym. An outdoor pool (20m by 5m, open April to November) is also shared. The grounds offer a tennis court, children's play area, nature trails and cycle tracks. Parking for four cars is provided. No smoking inside.
