HOLLY COTTAGE (MIDDLE TYSOE), pet friendly, with open fire in Tysoe

Holly Cottage is a detached cottage resting in Middle Tysoe, sleeping six people in three bedrooms, laid out across three floors.

Holly Cottage is a beautiful holiday retreat in the picturesque village of Middle Tysoe, on the edge of the Cotswolds Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty. The property dates back to the 1860s, and is noticeable by its striking red brick façade. Holly Cottage is the perfect house for a gathering of friends or family who are seeking a stylish retreat from which to explore the glorious Cotswold countryside and beyond. The front door opens into a small entrance hall, where you can hang up your coats and kick off your shoes, before entering into the warm and inviting, dual aspect sitting room, where you can look forward to sinking into the three-seater sofa, loveseat or armchair later on in the evening as you watch a compelling film from the selection of DVDs on offer, as the woodburning stove crackles away in the background. Moving through the property, you will pass the handy utility room in the hallway, before entering into the bright dining room which has beautiful painted beams and an eye-catching decorative range oven, where you and your loved ones can tuck into your meals and toast to the start of your holiday. Enter into the stunning, contemporary kitchen that is flooded with natural light through the dual aspect patio doors and rustle up heart-warming meals for you and your loved ones making use of the state-of-the-art appliances, whilst listening to your favourite tunes on the DAB radio. Completing the ground floor is a useful cloakroom sat adjacent to the dining room, accessed via a rear lobby. When night falls, make your way up to the first-floor where you will find two stunning bedrooms; the master is the perfect place to lay your head for the night in the king-size bed, and wake up to the beautiful sight of the fields opposite through the dual aspect windows, and the second bedroom is perfect for children, containing twin beds. A light and airy bathroom rests on this floor, where you can indulge in a warming soak amongst the bubbles in the bath, or enjoy an invigorating rinse using the shower over or the hand-held shower. A second flight of stairs lead up directly into the third bedroom, which boasts uninterrupted rural views through its dual aspect windows, contains a king-size bed, and benefits from an en-suite with a walk-in shower. In the morning, make a hearty breakfast to be enjoyed at the breakfast bar and coffee table in the kitchen, as you arrange your itinerary for your holiday that has just begun! Catch the morning sun rays in the wrap-around patio and lawn garden and take a seat at the outdoor table to admire the views towards the church and beyond. Pick up groceries for your barbecue at the local supermarket and store them in the fridge and freezer, before heading back out to explore your local surroundings. The unspoilt village of Middle Tysoe is a peaceful village on the north-eastern edge of the Cotswolds, surrounded by countryside, and with many enjoyable walks on its doorstep, including the walk around Windmill Hill where you can walk right up to the windmill on the hill and enjoy views of Compton Wynates mansion house. Allow your four-legged friend to stretch their legs on the village green and then make your way to the Peacock Inn pub for a tipple where your furry friend is also welcome, and pick up a Chinese takeaway for a lovely meal and break from the kitchen!
