Cotswold Valley Court Manor

The Stroud area sits at the heart of the Cotswolds, where rolling hills, stone villages and country walks draw visitors throughout the year. Cotswold Valley Court Manor is a substantial detached house in France Lynch, a quiet hilltop settlement within this landscape. The property sleeps 17 across six bedrooms and five bathrooms, making it suited to large family gatherings, celebrations or groups of friends wanting their own space.

Downstairs there are two living rooms (each with a smart TV and one with a woodburner), a dining room, a well-equipped kitchen with an electric oven, gas hob, range cooker and dishwasher, plus a utility room with washing and tumble-drying facilities. Bedrooms are distributed across the first and second floors; most have en-suite bathrooms with either a bath or shower, and several have smart TVs. One bedroom has a super kingsize and two single beds; another offers a zip-and-link kingsize that can be split into two singles. A travel cot and highchair are available. Central heating, electricity, bed linen, towels and Wi-Fi come as standard, along with initial fuel for the woodburner.

The enclosed garden includes a sitting area and gas barbecue, while a private hot tub accommodates six people. Parking is available for four cars. The grounds back onto countryside, and from here guests can reach footpaths through meadows and valleys, or drive to market towns like Cirencester and Painswick. One dog is welcome to stay free of charge. No smoking inside the property.
