Wellinghill Cottage rests on the outskirts of Charlton Kings, Gloucestershire, surrounded by rolling countryside and offering a serene retreat for families or friends in search of a special getaway. Situated on a 90 acre horse livery farm with views to Leckhampton Hill and footpaths to Cleeve Hill and Dowdeswell woods. Styled with care and bespoke touches, this inviting cottage exudes warmth throughout, while its private garden is adjacent to the owners’ alpacas, adding a delightful and distinctive feature to your stay. Inside, the open-plan living area is designed for easy, sociable moments, whether you’re preparing meals in the well-equipped kitchen, gathering around the dining table, or relaxing on the sofa with a favourite film. For quieter evenings, the snug provides an additional space to unwind, complete with a woodburning stove that brings a cosy glow on cooler days. A utility room with a washing machine and tumble dryer, along with a convenient cloakroom, ensures practicality for longer breaks. Upstairs, two elegant double bedrooms promise restful nights after days of exploring, served by a bathroom with a bath and shower over for leisurely soaks or quick refreshes. Step outside to savour the private garden, where morning coffees and evening drinks feel extra special with alpacas grazing just beyond the fence. Charlton Kings offers everyday essentials close by, with a shop and welcoming pub a short stroll away, while nearby lakes and rivers provide scenic walking routes, the footpath starts halfway down the drive and runs along the river Chelt and over the bridge to the horse and alpacas fields. Wander through Pitville Park or just less than a mile from the Cottage visit Dunkerton Park for a casual drink or lunch and in the evening enjoy one of the many music events that they have. For days out, head to Cheltenham to admire its Regency architecture, browse boutique shops, and wander through Pittville Park. In Gloucester, discover the magnificent cathedral, the National Waterways Museum, and the lively Gloucester Quays. Further afield, Bourton-on-the-Water charms with riverside walks, Birdland Park and Gardens, and the famous Model Village. However you choose to spend your time, Wellinghill Cottage makes a memorable base in a beautiful corner of Gloucestershire.
