Full Description
Nestled in a hidden corner of the Cotswolds, Coppice House is a real country escape. The house is hugged by woodland and open fields at the foot of Bredon Hill which is made for walkers and mountain bikers. On your way back home at the end of the day, pop into the village pub, The Star Inn. With everything on your doorstep you can hunker down with your family or friends and have a fantastic time in this beautifully rural part of the Cotswolds.
This grand home is warm and welcoming, and its history adds something special to your stay. Conversations are accompanied by roaring open fires in the timber framed drawing room and lunches in the dining room are drenched in sunlight. Traditional aspects in the kitchen fill it with character but rest assured, you still have all the mod cons and the sitting room has a smart TV. There is so much space at Coppice House you don’t need to worry about being on top of each other, and at the end of the day five bedrooms await. Two are on the ground floor which helps ensure all members of your group are comfortable.
From the garden you can really appreciate this black and white timber framed house. The mature grounds are a dream with lawns and flowering beds. Why not have a BBQ while the dogs and children let off steam? You will find some lovely secluded spots to lay a blanket and soak in the sun, listening to the horses in the neighbouring paddock. Surrounded by open fields with Bredon Hill and the Vale of Evesham on your doorstep you can get away from it all and almost forget the outside world exists.

We booked out Coppice House for a family get together. It was a great setting and a lovely space for our family to spend some quality time together. The setting offers fantastic opportunity for pictures and has a good amount of indoor and outdoor space. The host was very responsive. Thank you again for the great stay.
