This apartment cottage is named in memory of King George III, who came to visit Sudeley Castle & Gardens on several occasions in the late 18th Century.
Entrance to the apartment is via one of two outdoor staircases (at each end of the Old Forge) and the shared decking area, which faces a pretty lawn and the footpath to Sudeley Castle.
The first floor has an open plan living area, dining area and fully equipped kitchen. A pretty divided staircase leads up to one double bedroom with dressing area (also ideal for a travel cot) to the left and the other double bedroom and bathroom to the right.
Contractors are undertaking building works near the property during 2022 from Monday to Friday, 8.00am to 4.00pm, and you may encounter some noise disturbance during your visit.
