Tucked away behind high gates in the pretty village of Cold Aston, the Coach House is a gorgeous Cotswold hideaway for four. Classically styled and elegant, the generous proportions of this 18th-century, Grade II listed building ensure space and comfort in abundance. Original floors, beams and exposed stone walls add character and a timeless appeal, whilst underfloor heating and a wood-burning stove keep things cosy. The ground floor flows through a simple, but well-equipped kitchen and a beautiful living and dining space. Upstairs are two delightful bedrooms, one with a fabulous free-standing bath, and a shower room. With the friendly village pub just a meander away and Bourton-on-the-Water, regarded as the Venice of the Cotswolds, within a 5-minute drive, the Coach House is the perfect Cotswold escape.
Full Description
Quietly located in the village of Cold Aston, just a stone’s throw from Bourton-on-the-Water, the Coach House offers space and tranquillity in a lovely setting. The countryside lanes that weave through the Cotswolds bringing you to the village, set the scene for your stay perfectly.

Throughout the coach house, original features take centre stage revealing exposed stone walls, aged timbers, and old beams. There’s detail in the little touches too, with brace and latch doors, antique light switches and a wooden settle. Enjoy lazy breakfasts and relaxed suppers at the eight-seater dining table, then retire to the comfy sofas set around the welcoming glow of the wood-burning stove. During the summer months, you can throw open the doors to the courtyard and soak up the late afternoon sunshine. The two bedrooms are equally enchanting with beamed, vaulted ceilings, village views and lots of space to relax. The free-standing bathtub in bedroom one just invites you to fill it with bubbles, lay back and let the worries of the world simply drift away.

The Coach House enjoys a courtyard area with parking for two cars. The cobbles to the front of the property are the perfect spot for the dining table and chairs, where you can relax in the fresh air. There are footpaths from the door and the village pub is just a short walk away.

Ground Floor

Kitchen:
The old entrance door leads into a well-equipped kitchen, the simple design fits perfectly with the style that you will find throughout the Coach House. There is a full oven, hob, and dishwasher and behind the red-framed doors to the pantry there is a fridge (no freezer), and washing machine along with all your crockery and glasses. There is also a ground-floor cloakroom tucked away in here too. The impressive settle is actually made from old oak coffin wood, and a good place to sit to remove outdoor gear.

Living Room/Dining Area:
Take a moment to appreciate the detail on the old door, with its wooden acorn weight, as you walk through to the main living space. There’s an eight-seater refectory dining table with chairs and a Georgian settle along one side, and two plump sofas are placed at right angles around the stone fireplace which is now home to a wood-burning stove. Behind the timber doors on the left of the chimney breast, you’ll find the Smart TV. Double doors lead into the courtyard.

First Floor


Bedroom One:
This fabulous bedroom is filled with character boasting exposed stone walls, timber floors and old beams. Soak the cares of the day away in the free-standing bathtub before drifting off to sleep in the comfortable super-king bed. This is a romantic and peaceful space with charm by the bucket load. There is plenty of storage so you can unpack, a thoughtfully placed desk and chair, and a cosy armchair, where you can relax with a coffee as the day begins.

Shower Room:
Between the two bedrooms is the bathroom with a shower cubicle with a rainfall showerhead, handbasin and WC.

Bedroom Two:
This equally delightful bedroom is up two steps from the main staircase and can be arranged as a twin, or king. Deep-set windows to the side and front, wooden beams and original floorboards add warmth and charm whilst the neutral colour scheme enhances the beautiful sense of calm. There is an antique chest of drawers and hooks with wooden hangers for unpacking.

Outside


The high gates lead into the courtyard which is only for the use of the Coach House guests. There is parking for two cars and a cobbled patio with a wooden table and chairs and a parasol. A wooden bench placed along one stone wall catches the late afternoon sunshine.

The Coach House is a beautiful place to spend time, whether exploring the area or relaxing with a book. Cold Aston is lovely and it's easy to drive to other villages and towns. We didn't want to leave!

I cannot recommend The Cotswold Coach House enough! I had the absolute pleasure of staying here for two nights, including the morning of my wedding, and it was truly perfect from start to finish. From the moment I first met Peter, the owner, I knew I was in good hands. He kindly showed me around beforehand, and I was completely blown away by how stunning the coach house is. The original detailing is absolutely to die for, and the whole place just oozes charm and character. What really stood out was how spacious the rooms were; they were so much bigger than they look in the pictures! Peter was incredibly accommodating, not only in welcoming me and my bridal party as we got ready but also in offering fantastic local recommendations. He suggested dinner at The Wheatsheaf Inn, and let me tell you, it was banging! His excitement about me being the first bride to get ready at The Coach House made everything feel even more special, and his kindness and understanding meant the world. The master bedroom bed was ridiculously comfortable, I had the best sleep! And the surrounding village? Pure Cotswold heaven. The location is perfect, offering both tranquillity and convenience. If you’re looking for somewhere truly special to stay, whether for a getaway or a special occasion, this is it. Thank you, Peter, for making such a magical place available to guests!

A lovely cottage in a quiet village, central to most visited places in the Cotswolds. The cottage was homely and warm.

Our family of four stayed for four nights and it was the perfect base for our Cotswolds adventures. The cottage is located in a gorgeous little village with easy access to everything the Cotswolds offer. The pictures don’t do the cottage justice - it was an absolute dream - like something out of ‘The Holiday’ movie. We will definitely return.

Amazing stay in the beautiful Coach House in Cold Aston. Everything is top-end and no expense spared. Owner on hand if anything is required. Would definitely recommend it as a place for total relaxation.

We had a thoroughly enjoyable stay at The Coach House and would love to return one day. The house was spotlessly clean on arrival and very comfortable for a family of four. The owner was very communicative and offered some great tips. We loved the small village of Cold Aston and all the surrounding villages. Highly recommended.

Location

The historic village of Cold Aston has a friendly local pub with good food, a medieval church and the Coach House forms part of the Old Vicarage, which is one of the oldest buildings in the village. Located in the heart of the Cotswolds means there are myriad attractions within easy reach. Bouton-on-the-Water is 2.5 miles away and Stow-on-the-Wold and the Cotswold Farm Park are within 10 miles. Within a 30-minute drive, you can be in beautiful Burford, browsing the farm shop and homewares of the Daylesford empire or exploring the historical charms of Sudeley Castle.
