Grand, spacious and surrounded by glorious Cotswold scenery, Spring House is a country manor with an edge of distinctive styling. Elegant dining spaces and living rooms with crackling fires set the scene for extravagant family dinners and spending time together in this unique setting. Around each corner is eye-catching art and the parkland views will stop you in your tracks each time. Spend days in regency Cheltenham Spa browsing the boutique shops or heading to the world-renowned races, visit the Cotswold Farm Park and the ancient Roman market town of Cirencester, or just enjoy a wander across the fields to the nearest country pub for a hearty meal and a couple of pints.
Full Description
Sitting amongst charming Cotswold villages, Spring House is at the centre of a picturesque landscape. From here you can enjoy the best of both worlds with local highlights easily reached from your doorstep and a fabulously curated home to call your own.

Sunlit rooms with garden views, displays of original artwork and bold fabric choices make this a getaway you’ll remember. Each space has something special from the open fire and oriental touches in the drawing room to floral influences found throughout the bedrooms. The spacious kitchen is perfect for home-cooked meals or treating yourselves by hiring a private chef and you have a choice of dining spaces. One is flooded with light with a garden view backdrop while the formal dining room creates a royal elegance with rich blue tones and highlights of gold. After dinner the sitting room awaits with its gallery walls and woodburning stove and in the atrium a multi-games table will keep younger guests entertained. With the bedrooms spread across the first floor and one downstairs, each has delicate artwork and splashes of personality.

Your time here will be split between the house and irresistible south-facing garden with a dining terrace and expansive lawns. In spring you’ll spot prancing lambs and blossoming bulbs, but it is no less beautiful in winter as you watch the skies change through the trees. Head out early to Elkstone Studios to bring back pastries and coffee for your group before pulling your walking boots on and getting immersed in the countryside.

Drawing Room
Sunlight streams into the drawing room awakening the quiet elegance of this reception room.

Sitting Room
Whether you would prefer to watch an old favourite film, read a novel or have a quiet drink beside the woodburner, the living room has it all. Artwork provides conversation starters while decadence is created in warming peach tones with highlights of green. Two garden view windows turn your setting into its own work of art.

Kitchen/Dining Area
The kitchen offers an abundance of space and a fabulous flow is created making preparing meals a dream.

Outside


Surrounded by lush lawns and mature trees, Spring House is immersed in the Cotswold countryside. Spot lambs in the distance as you wander the south-facing grounds between the majestic trees as flowers bloom and birds flit overhead. There is oodles of space for garden games and short walks with the dogs to let off steam and children will have a fantastic time having picnics and acting out their stories. Serve meals on the terrace, have a family BBQ, or sit here in the fresh mornings with a cup of coffee to start your day. Walks can start from your doorstep to explore your surroundings, heading to one of the nearby pubs or perhaps to join the Cotswold Way.
