Emma Dent Cottage at Sudeley Castle

Sleeps 6

Local Pub
Named after Emma Dent, who was responsible for the restoration of Sudeley Castle in the 19th century, as well as providing the town of Winchcombe with its first piped water supply in celebration of Queen Victoria’s Golden Jubilee in 1887. It is to Emma Dent that we owe the splendour of Sudeley Castle as it stands today and for almost half a century, she dedicated her life to the castle including laying out the gardens and the planting of the magnificent yew hedges. This is a rambling-rose-covered cottage tucked into the corner of the Sudeley Castle Cottage complex. It’s the perfect base from which to explore the elegant town of Winchcombe, the splendour of Sudeley Castle and its magical gardens as well as the beautiful landscapes of the surrounding Cotswolds. With two bedrooms, two bathrooms and a sofa bed, there is plenty of space to relax, whilst outside is a private courtyard.

During your stay, you are entitled to free admission to Sudeley Castle and Gardens during the Castle’s open season (except for separately ticketed events).
Full Description

Emma Dent cottage forms part of the Sudeley Castle Cottage complex, which is just a short walk from the centre of Winchcombe. Everything you need is on the doorstep and with Winchcombe being a ‘walker’s welcome’ town, there is much to explore on foot.

On the ground floor, you’ll find an open-plan dining and well-appointed kitchen area, with a door to the courtyard. The living area is a light, bright and airy space with plenty of seating and French doors to the courtyard. There is also a useful ground floor cloakroom. Upstairs are two bedrooms with en-suite bathrooms.

The private courtyard behind the cottage has seating for alfresco dining and a charcoal barbecue. The cottage complex benefits from large car parking with plenty of spaces.

Ground Floor

The ground floor of Emma Dent Cottage features a bright and light open-plan area, furnished with English country cottage fabrics and light oak furniture.

Dining Area:
The centrepiece of the dining area is an oak dining table and chairs to comfortably seat 6.

To the left of the dining area is an understairs cupboard housing a travel cot, stair gate, highchair, iron, ironing board, airer, and bedding for the sofa bed. A spacious W.C. with sink featuring sage-grey Shaker-style panelling is next to the understair cupboard - a handy facility for guests using the sofa bed.

Kitchen:
The fully equipped kitchen has a country-cottage feel, with fresh off-white coloured cabinets and wooden work surfaces. The kitchen has all the appliances, cookware, crockery and glassware you need for a self-catering holiday, including a Neff cooker, fridge/freezer, microwave, dishwasher, toaster, kettle and Nespresso coffee machine.

Living Area:
Down a couple of steps from the kitchen, the triple-aspect living area is wonderfully light yet cosy and features two large, sink-in sofas (one is a sofa bed) and a comfy armchair, plus a coffee table, and a large Samsung Smart TV. French doors lead out to the courtyard with seating and chairs and a charcoal barbecue, the perfect spot for an evening drink after a day exploring the estate or wider Cotswolds.


First Floor

Carpeted stairs with a handrail lead upstairs to the two en-suite bedrooms:

Bedroom One:

Along the landing and down a couple of steps you’ll find the king-size double bedroom with a very spacious en-suite. The bedroom windows look out down the length of the main Sudeley courtyard, providing a great view of all the cottages. The bedroom is furnished with a small built-in hanging cupboard, a full-length mirror, bedside tables and handy overbed lights with reading and room lighting.

En-Suite Bathroom:
A single step leads up into the spacious en-suite, featuring a walk-in shower, heated towel rail, a large sink with a mirror, shaver powerpoint, a storage cupboard (ideal for luggage) and a vanity storage unit for bathroom accessories.

Bedroom Two:
Cross the landing and down a couple of steps as you enter the pretty en-suite twin bedroom, featuring two oak frame beds and a lovely view out over woodland. The bedroom is furnished with a large built-in hanging cupboard, a central bedside table and individual overbed lights with reading and room lighting.

En-Suite Bathroom:
This en-suite bathroom features a large, walk-in shower (with overhead and hand-held shower), dual flush W.C., a large sink and a heated towel rail.

Outside

There is a private courtyard with seating and a charcoal barbecue (please bring your own charcoal) to the rear of the cottage. There is ample parking in the cottage complex car park.

Supermarkets and Shopping:

The town itself benefits from several small supermarkets, including The Co-Operative Food, which is well-stocked with fresh produce and store cupboard essentials. Vale & Hills Family Butchers offers fantastic, local meat on the town’s high street, with a host of delicious goodies available at North’s Bakery for those in search of a fresh morning loaf.

  • White Hart Inn (200 metres)
  • North Street (300 metres)

Walks:

The Winchcombe Way, a 42-mile figure-of-eight trail centred around the town, offers walkers a great way of discovering the surrounding Cotswold towns and villages section-by-section over the course of a stay, whilst there are plenty of options for those looking for a more casual, leisurely pace within a close radius of the cottage. We recommend the Sudeley Castle Circular walk for a relaxing stroll; a 2-mile loop setting off straight from the cottage’s front door, taking you into the grounds of historic Sudeley Castle - a must-visit for any guest. The 2.5 mile walk to Belas Knap, a Neolithic chambered long barrow sat atop Cleeve Hill, is also a great walk to try from the doorstep, providing you don’t mind the incline.

During your stay at Sudeley Castle Country Cottages you are entitled to free admission to Sudeley Castle and Gardens during the Castle’s open season (except for separately ticketed events). Steeped in a thousand years of history, Sudeley Castle makes for a fascinating day out, not to mention the vast number of events also taking place throughout the year.

We stayed in Emma Dent at Sudeley Castle Cottages for a week in September. The cottage was lovely and clean, the kitchen was very well appointed and there was a lot of space. We would absolutely recommend the Sudeley Castle Cottages, although cannot comment on the shared buildings since Emma Dent is an individual stand-alone cottage. Looking forward to returning to Winchcombe and the Cotswolds someday!

We last stayed in a Sudeley Castle cottage over thirty years ago and were very happy to be back. This time we took two cottages so that we could house a total of nine people. It all worked out perfectly. The location is within easy walking distance of the centre of Winchcombe but very quiet, being well back from the road. The cottages are equipped and furnished to a high standard. The castle is accessible from the lane at the back of the cottages, as well as by various public footpaths. The free access that comes with the cottage is a nice bonus.

The cottage was very well equipped and furnished, a lot of thought had obviously gone into the interior design. The kitchen had all the things necessary for simple or complex meal prep and having the cleaning kit was really helpful. Location was great, a short walk to the lovely village of Winchcome and also to Sudeley Castle. It was a lovely bonus to have free access to the castle which is definitely worth a visit. It was a great break and is definitely on my list to re-visit.

The house was clean and tidy with good size tv, a couple of games, books and plenty of kitchen equipment. The outside area had a BBQ with a picnic bench. Upstairs bedrooms and en suite bathrooms were lovely and the beds were comfortable. Plenty of towels and complimentary toiletries. The lounge was a good size for a family as used the sofa bed and there was plenty of room.

Location

Winchcombe is an elegant and timeless Cotswold town. Venture down the narrow side streets to find a mix of Cotswold stone cottages and black and white half-timbered buildings. The town is a famous centre for walkers, yet also boasts a number of traditional pubs and delicious cafes, galleries, boutique clothing, interior design, and antique shops to browse. With Winchcombe on your doorstep and the Cotswolds’ many market towns and villages just a short car ride away, you’re somewhat spoiled for choice when it comes to places to eat.
