Woodside Cottage - sleeps 8 guests in 4 bedrooms

Set slightly back on the pretty high street in Mickleton, Woodside Cottage is an elegant, detached family home with beautiful, rural views to the rear. Built from the local honey-coloured limestone, this spacious cottage is surrounded by mature planting and during the summer months, white roses clamber around the front door.

The interior is stylish and thoughtfully laid out with plenty of space to be both sociable but also offer a little peace and quiet when needed. The generously proportioned living room has a cosy open fire, the dining room seats eight comfortably and there's a superb kitchen. The former garage has been converted into a games/utility room with a pool table and a dartboard, the door to the kitchen can be closed if the competition gets animated! Upstairs are three spacious bedrooms; the fourth room can be used as a snug or the double sofa bed can be made up for use as a bedroom, perfect for children or teenagers.

The private gravel drive provides parking for up to three cars, whilst to the rear, the enclosed garden has a lawned area, a patio with a square dining table and rattan-style seating for eight. It's a peaceful spot to spend lazy afternoons before enjoying an evening of alfresco dining with treats rustled up on the gas barbecue. Younger guests can enjoy games of hide and seek in the sandbag-built army bunker in the rear garden.
