  • Cosy character cottage set in the quiet, sleepy hamlet of Weston-on-Avon
  • Idyllic location on the River Avon with private fishing rights and a nearby golfing range at Welford Golf Club
  • Peaceful rural base, ideal for walkers and cyclists, in the heart of Shakespeare’s country
Property code: CC033

The property lies on working farmland complete with farm shop selling fresh produce. Just half a mile away you will find good local shops and pubs, in Welford-on-Avon. With the River Avon boarding the farmland, guests can benefit from private fishing rights or perhaps head to the nearby golfing range at Welford. For a relaxing day in the Cotswolds, the nearby beautiful Cotswold villages are waiting to be discovered. Maybe enjoy a leisurely walk or hop on a bicycle to Shakespeare’s riverside town of Stratford-upon-Avon and ride along the towpath, stopping off for a bite to eat or a refreshing drink in one the many riverside pubs or cafes along the way. Whatever your interest, this is a superb location.

Arriving at the property you are greeted with a farmhouse style door opening into an inviting entrance hall. Leading through to the elegant lounge with its exposed oak beams you can curl up on the luxurious sofa and lose yourself in a decent book or perhaps simply look out at the beautiful farmland views with a glass of wine. The lounge also has SkyTV and a DVD player. If staying in for the evening, there is a lovely country-style galley kitchen, excellently equipped including an electric oven with hob, microwave, fridge/freezer, washing machine and tumble dryer and a dishwasher to make light work of clearing up. The adjacent dining room has a large chunky oak dining table with chairs for six. Next to the dining room, you will find a utility room for wet and muddy coats and wellies, which comes in handy after a long walk in the country. On the same floor there is a double bedroom with TV and ensuite large wet room with shower, wash basin and WC. Heading upstairs to the first floor, you will find a large landing leading to a double bedroom (and an additional single bed) with TV and a seperate bathroom with bath, shower cubicle, wash basin and WC.

Stepping outside from the back door you will find a lovely enclosed courtyard with BBQ and furniture, so you can enjoy a warm evening outside or perhaps try your skills with a garden ball game.

What a great stay. We spent the Christmas holiday in this lovely property. It was perfect in location, incredibly well equipped and very comfortable.. had no problem preparing and cooking a full Christmas dinner for 5 adults and we had plenty of room to relax and socialise. We can highly recommend this property.

We had a wonderful week with friends, the cottage is well laid out and well equipped. 2 x en suites meant no squabbling over rooms! Farm Shop on site was an added bonus. Easy walking distance to Welham along the footpath by the river where there we had Sunday lunch at The Bell and right next door is a 2nd hand dress agency thats well worth a visit.Read more Cottage is central for so many things to do.

Beautifully appointed cottage with spacious dining room. Lounge seating is very comfortable. The kitchen is small but well appointed with plenty of tableware. The beds are very comfortable and the bathroom spacious with an excellent shower. The property is in a good position for easy access to the towns and villages in the area.

A good property for someone with limited mobility - a downstairs bedroom with a wet room. A step up into the cottage but no other steps inside if sleeping in the downstairs bedroom. No grab rails in the wetroom but the owners can provide a perch stool. Standard height loos. An additional downstairs loo.

This cottage was a real Godsend of a last minute booking as we were able to get our families together to support and celebrate the latest addition to our Stratford branch. The owners were very helpful and understanding, available but not intrusive. We would look here first should we consider a return visit.

We had a lovely peaceful stay at the cottage but the information on the website is misleading.. i) We found difficulty in finding the cottage because the cottage is called Hurnberry Cottage not Riverbank. Ii) The photo of a river and text saying idyllic location on River Avonis untrue. Iii) "...greeted with a farmhouse door" is incorrect. The farmhRead moreouse door is at the back of the cottage. Iv) ".. you will find a utility room" There wasn't one V) Local directions were useless. We came from Dorset. Hide
