À propos de cet hébergement

Charmant cottage Cotswold du 17ème siècle dans le magnifique village de Bretforton

3/5 nuits de courts séjours disponibles s'il vous plaît demander aux propriétaires pour plus de détails.

Le pittoresque village de Bretforton est situé à la lisière des Cotswolds, ce qui en fait une base idéale pour explorer les villes et villages pittoresques des North Cotswolds et les villes historiques de Stratford upon Avon, Warwick, Cheltenham et Worcester. Bretforton a récemment participé à la série télévisée Channel 4 du «Village de l'année» en janvier 2018.

Le Bear's Cottage est un charmant cottage Cotswold du XVIIe siècle, construit à l'origine en 1605 et faisant autrefois partie du presbytère du Domaine de Bretforton. Situé dans l'aire de conservation de Bretforton et à côté du manoir de Bretforton, le gîte peint une image tranquille qui surplombe la magnifique église de St. Leonards.

Récemment rénové et fini à un niveau élevé, le chalet propose un hébergement de charme comprenant: deux chambres doubles avec chacune un lit double confortable et un matelas Millbrook, une superbe salle de douche avec grande douche, chauffage au sol et sèche-serviettes, un puits - une cuisine équipée (y compris un seul four électrique avec grill et plaques chauffantes, une hotte électrique, un four micro-ondes, un lave-vaisselle et un lave-linge / sèche-linge), un espace salle à manger menant à un salon confortable avec télévision / lecteur DVD et dvd et très haut débit en fibre. Le chalet a le bénéfice du chauffage central au gaz et d'une cuisinière à gaz pour les soirées fraîches. Le chalet se niche dans un joli jardin avec des parterres de fleurs et une pelouse à l'avant et un patio avec mobilier de jardin pour profiter de la vie en plein air sur ces longues journées chaudes.

Bretforton est célèbre pour '' The Fleece Inn '' (lauréat du Daily Telegraph / Sawdays Pub de l'année 2019), un pub chargé d'histoire, construit à l'origine au début du XVe siècle et légué au National Trust en 1977. Une partie vibrante de la communauté et populaire pour la bonne nourriture et les vraies bières, le pub attire les habitants fidèles et les visiteurs de partout dans le monde. Bretforton Community Shop est à seulement une minute à pied du chalet et un fournisseur de produits locaux et locaux fayre.

Profitez de votre visite - pourquoi ne pas planifier une journée à Cheltenham Races (à seulement 20 minutes), profiter d'une soirée au Royal Shakespeare Theatre, visiter l'une des propriétés de Shakespeare ou déambuler dans les anciens remparts du château de Warwick. Pour les têtes d'essence parmi vous, le British Motor Museum à Gaydon est un must absolu. Pour ceux qui veulent juste un moment de détente, il ya des propriétés et des jardins locaux du National Trust et de beaux villages Cotswold à la porte, ce qui en fait la retraite idéale pour des vacances agréables à tout moment de l'année.

Bear Cottage is a meticulously renovated historic cottage. Absolutely spotlessly clean and generously supplied with everything you need. Phil is quick to respond to any queries and provide help if needed. Excellent kitchen and bathroom and comfortable beds.The village shop is just across the road and six nights a week you can get delicious Turkish meals at a very reasonable price. So handy when you don't feel like cooking.Bretforton is a gorgeous old village with beautiful historic houses and buildings. The church next door is fabulous. I should add the bells do continue throughout the night on the hour, but don't let this put you off if you're a light sleeper, just take some ear plugs and you can't help falling in love with Bear Cottage.

Wonderful stay in a beautiful period cottage

Beautiful cottage fully equipped with everything we could have needed for a week away. Lovely, quiet country village with close access to lots of National Trust properties and other places to visit - of which we took full advantage! The only things I would note for future visitors is to take an eyemask if you like to sleep in the pitch black (like me) as there is a very bright light outside the front bedroom which shines all night long. Also, for anyone with sound sensitivities, the church next door does chime the hour, every hour, including through the night, and in the nice weather with the windows open it was quite loud at the dead of night. This isn't a problem if you don't have sound sensitivity issues though. We did have a wonderful stay and Phil and Susan couldn't have been more helpful and kind. I'd definitely stay again in the future

Dear Lorraine Thank you very much for your lovely review which was really helpful to us, and we very much appreciate you taking time to do. Phil & I are delighted that you enjoyed your stay at Bear's Cottage with everything the village and the beautiful Cotswolds have to offer. We would also like to say how beautifully clean and tidy you left our cottage, so thank you for taking care of it so well for us during your stay. We haven't had comments about the light in the street before, but I will be looking at renewing the bedroom curtains shortly, and I think it would be good idea this time in light of what you have said, to make them with blackout lining to eliminate any potential light. It's very important to us that our guests have a comfortable and restful night's sleep. As the cottage is next to the church though, unfortunately I can't do anything about the bell, I suppose it's just one of those things in the village that people who live there don't notice. Really pleased this didn't spoil you holiday and that you would like to stay again in the future - you will be very welcome! Thank you once again Susan & Phil

Perfection!

The ultimate family vacation! This beautiful cottage was perfect for our family of four (including two boys ages 11 and 13)The cottage was tastefully decorated and very clean. It offered all the amenities that our family required. The beds were very comfortable and the kitchen was well-equipped. Susan and Phil were perfect hosts from start to finish. Susan was very responsive to all of our planning questions and Phil checked on us several times during our stay. The village... Oh the darling village! We fell in love with Bretforton. The village people are so friendly and welcoming. By the end of our short stay many of the towns people knew our children by name and greeted us during our daily walks. The village is very safe and has plenty of parking. The community store was a great asset, in the mornings our children would walk across the street and get delicious pastries for breakfast and other snacks for our day trips. The location is absolutely perfect for exploring all of the other villages in the Cotswolds. The town pub, the Fleece Inn was unforgettable. The food was delicious and reasonably priced. It was delightful to enjoy a pint and talk with the locals. One evening we enjoy live traditional English music performed by local musicians. Reservations are recommended. Overall this was a trip of a lifetime. We can’t wait to stay at the Bears Cottage again. Five star service and accommodations that our family will never forget.

A great time in a wonderfull house

Es war ein wunderschöner Urlaub, den wir in den Cotswolds erlebt haben. Das Haus hat uns sehr gefallen. Gemütlich, sauber, alles da, was man für den Aufenthalt braucht. Da ich auch im Urlaub viel selbst koche (das Einkaufen im Ausland macht Spaß) bin ich immer sehr kritisch, was die Küchenausstattung anbelangt. Doch hier waren wir sehr zufrieden. Ein weiterer wichtiger Punkt ist die Nähe des Bretforton Community Shop, ein kleiner Laden, der aber über das Notwendigste verfügt: Nahrungsmittel, Getränke, etc. Das örtliche Pub „Fleece Inn“ hat uns mit vielen unterhaltsamen musikalischen Abenden und gutem Essen ebenfalls begeistert. Ein kommunikativer Ort. Die Umgebung rund um Bretforton ist sehr malerisch, die vielfältigen Begegnungen mit Briten allesamt sehr herzlich, freundlich und hilfsbereit. Wir kommen gerne wieder. Susan und Phil sind ausgesprochen herzliche Gastgeber. Danke für die schöne Zeit!

A home from home.

Truely marvelous. The cottage was out of this world. Everything functioned to perfection and the “instruction folder” made life very easy. The “welcome gift” upon arrival is a lovely gesture, especially after a long, tiring car journey to reach Bretforton. The recipe for the fruit cake was a thoughtful touch and the actual cake was delicious. The cottage had a fantastic atmosphere and we could feel that Susan and Phil have put their hearts and souls into the renovation process. The villagers were extremely friendly and the community shop was a lifesaver. A large range of items including gifts and at a competitive price. We’ve rented a number of holiday cottages over the years and Bear’s Cottage is now at the top of our list as far as value for money, location and holiday satisfaction are concerned. Fondest regards, Ian, Anette and Justine (the danish family)

Wonderful stay at Bears Cottage

We had the pleasure of staying here the last week in May. The cottage was lovely, spotlessly clean and finished to such a high standard! You can really tell the love Phil and Sue have for the cottage. We had a mixed bag with the weather, so when it was sunny and warm we made the most of sitting in the beautiful garden, and when it was raining we had lovely cosy nights in! The village itself was everything you would imagine a Cotswolds village to be! The Fleece Inn pub was a big hit with us, good ale selection, wonderful food, and a real community feel. We had such a lovely stay here, and we would definitely come back again!

Happy Days!

Bears Cottage was the perfect 'roost' for us. We had dreadful weather during our stay so our accommodation was even more important. The comfort, immaculate and beautifully restored and well furnished rooms (very comfy, large sofa and a great armchair) the attractively quaint character of the building (unusual spaces cleverly turned into cupboards) and the whole ambience of the village location compensated for the lack of intended exploration of the Cotswolds. The pretty and private garden is a real bonus, as is the friendly village shop across the road. The church is beside the cottage and we knew in advance that the bell tolled the hour on the hour, but it didn't bother us at all, in fact we were delighted when the bell ringers had a day time practice session - it was a real treat while the rain fell outside. The wonderful Fleece pub is something else! Its ancient walls could tell many tales. Although we did not eat there, we sampled the beers and saw some of meals being served - they looked delicious. Phil and Susan are model hosts. Phil came to welcome us and talked us through aspects of the cottage although the instruction manuals and guide notes were comprehensive and we had no problems at all. Susan left us a welcoming (and much appreciated) cake, milk and tea, so we were able to feel at home immediately. Lastly, the decor of the cottage, not least the bedrooms and beautifully tiled contemporary shower room, is tasteful, clever and relaxing. We loved it! (We should have asked why it is called Bears Cottage but forgot) Thank you, Phil and Susan.

Quiet comfort in a lovely village

Bear's cottage is an attractive and beautifully restored property in a quiet village. Though of a compact size, it is comfortably furnished and the kitchen and bathroom facilities are spotless and up-to-date. The small, beautiful garden gets the sun in the morning, and is a delightful place to sit. Parking is on the road, which is generally quiet and was not a problem. The proximity of the friendly village shop and The Fleece gastro-pub (each a two-minute walk) add further convenience to this cosy property. We found the owners welcoming and approachable.

Welcoming hosts, lovely, warm and comfortable characterful cottage with great facilities. Historical local pub. Easy access to lovely Cotswolds, Warwickshire and Gloucester locations, including villages like Broadway and Chipping Campden. Evesham is lovely with great museum and pretty historical buildings. Towns like Stratford on Avon, Tewkesbury, Gloucester are worth visiting. We also visited the British Motor Museum which is well worth a visit. All in all, a fantastic stay.

Delightful cottage. Great hosts and fantastic stay

Very good impression from the off. Fast last minute booking. Handled very well... cottage perfectly clean with all mod cons. Perfectly situated in the heart of the small village. Directly opposite a village shop (rare in small Cotswold villages), and less than a minutes walk to a cracking free house (the fleece). Cottage was spotless and very much an arrive and relax environment. Credit to the owners for renovating the cottage in such good taste.

25 Days of Great Experience in a Well Designed and Perfectly Manage Cottage

My wife and I stayed at the cottage for 25 days. We found the cottage to perfectly reflect the written descriptions and the beauty of the village. Our hosts did everything possible to make us comfortable and went well beyond what we had expected. For instance, the cottage was nicely decorated for Christmas and there was holiday bread baked in the kitchen. The fresh flowers and immaculate cleanliness made us smile. The appliances and tidy kitchen made it easy to prepare meals. The bathroom reflects the amenities in a nice hotel with a great shower. The beds were comfortable with nice quality sheets, pillows and duvets. The furnishings are simple but perfectly comfortable. The wifi is super fast and the television has cable stations. We also loved the little village store with fresh backed breads and necessaries. We were also invited to functions of the Bretforton Social Club across the street. We spent our days hiking and exploring the nearby towns and villages. We also went to the Shakespeare Theater in nearby Stratford-upon-Avon. There is also football (soccer) played at every level in nearby cities. We also visited the British Motoring Museum which was a plus. Recommend having a car for this visit ( very easy parking) and enthusiasm to explore. The people of the Midlands are friendly and eager to meet you. The history of the area will overwhelm you. We loved the nearby of Evesham as a place of great history, and many great places to explore.

Voici pourquoi l’hôte a choisi cet hébergement

Bear's Cottage has been a restoration project where we have tried to retain as many of the original features and recycle as much as possible. No surface has managed to escape the wallpaper stripper, the sander and the paint brush! From the moment we stepped into the decaying half glazed porch and entered the cottage through the old front door we fell in love with it's charm and knew we could transform Bear's Cottage into a desirable holiday cottage providing a tranquil and relaxing haven.

Voici ce qui rend cet hébergement unique

Bear's Cottage typifies the architectural type ''Cotswold Cottage'' sitting in a fantastic location in the Conservation area of Bretforton, a village bustling with activity and a vibrant pub ''The Fleece Inn''. There is always something happening in the village with the pub at the centre of everything, we have our own Silver Band (the only one left in Worcestershire) and frequently have dancing from visiting Morris Dancers. The annual musical festival 'Bret Fest' is an occasion not to miss and is free for everyone to enjoy - holiday makers included!
