Sobre aquest allotjament

Swift Cottage, Blockley - sleeps 4 guests in 2 bedrooms

  • This terrace of golden Cotswold stone cottages was once home to the Blockley silk mill workers and forms a picturesque backdrop to the rolling hills around. Named after the swifts that nest in the eaves during summer, Swift Cottage is a Cotswold country getaway where the views will take your breath away each morning.

    Set over three floors you can enjoy the beautiful far-reaching views from the front and rear of the cottage. On the ground floor is an open-plan living and dining area with exposed Cotswold stone, oak beams and original elm floorboards. A traditional style open gas fire sits in a Cotswold stone fireplace, ready to warm your toes after a bracing winter walk. The dining table rests next to another original stone fireplace and looks out over the countryside scene beyond. Down the stairs is the kitchen with a breakfast area which opens out to the terraced garden. Up on the first floor are two charming king-size bedrooms, one of which has the flexibility to be a twin on request, making this cottage ideal for a romantic retreat or enjoying country walks with friends and family.

    The garden slopes gently and has three seating areas, starting with a bistro table outside the breakfast area French Windows and leading to a gravelled terrace with sunny and shady corners where you can sit and watch the birds bathe in the ornamental bird bath. From here you are drawn down to the end of the garden where a dining table seating four provides a captivating setting for lunch or evening meals with drinks below the parasol while the deer in the field beyond keep you company. From here you can look out over the rooftops nestled down in the valley, to the fields, hills, and horizon beyond; this is a truly wonderful location.

    Ground Floor

    Living/Dining Room
    This spacious, bright, quintessentially Cotswold, dual aspect living and dining room is full of original features which make this country cottage come to life. The original elm floor echoes the oak beams above and there is an exposed Cotswold stone wall and traditional gas-fired cast iron fire grate set in a large stone surround. Two sofas sit in front of the fire where you can warm yourselves after walking the hills. Enjoying the view through the window to the rear is a wooden dining table next to a decorative, original stone fireplace. Seating four, once the table is cleared after dinner you can play some restful music on the Bluetooth speaker and take advantage of the cottage board games or plan tomorrow's adventure with the guidebooks and maps provided for guests to borrow. Comfortably furnished with antiques, the room draws you in to relax on a window seat below each of the windows and find time to finish off that book or browse your favourite magazine.

    Lower Ground Floor

    From the ground floor, wooden stairs take you down to the lower ground floor. Mind your head here as taller members of the group may need to watch out for the beams.

    Kitchen:
    Opening via French Windows to the garden, the kitchen has a breakfast area and a separate utility area at the rear, behind a traditional glazed door. The Belfast sink sits in a hardwood worktop and affords views across the garden. The shaker-style cupboards and dual electric ovens and gas hob provide everything you'll need.

    When sitting at the breakfast table, open the doors to let in the birdsong and the country air, or step out beneath the rambling rose and enjoy a coffee at the bistro table immediately outside. In the utility area is a second fridge, a freezer, and the washer dryer. An integrated dishwasher sits adjacent the Butler sink.

    Shower Room:
    Tucked away off the utility area is a shower room which is the second in this cottage. With a shower, sink and WC it provides guests with a shower room for each bedroom.

    First Floor

    Bedroom One:
    Overlooking the garden, this king-size room is the larger of the two bedrooms. The window seat is a lovely place to stop and gaze across the valley. Furnished with an antique chest of drawers and large fitted wardrobes, you can make this room your own. The comfortable bed has Egyptian cotton bedding which you won't want to leave in the morning.

    Shower Room:
    This shower room has a step up to the power shower and there is also a sink and WC. It is easily accessible from each bedroom or you can make use of the shower room on the lower ground floor.

    Bedroom Two:
    With a second king-size bed which can be split to a twin on request, this room provides flexible sleeping. From the window seat, you can look over the hedge to become lost in the expansive Cotswold view with only fields, hedges, and trees (and the occasional tractor!) interrupting the view. By day, watch for kites soaring the thermals or listen out for owls by night. Or just gaze at the stunningly bright stars in a clear sky. This comfortable room has a rustic country charm with a painted chest of drawers, bedside table, and antique style hanging shelf.

    Outside

    The garden has three sitting areas; a table with four chairs at the bottom for meals beneath the parasol or leisurely evening drinks as you watch the sun go down over the valley. There is also a bistro set by the kitchen French Windows, and a cool, shady bench between the two areas. Planted with shrubbery and flowers along the sides it is a paradise for guests and birds alike. Down at the end you can watch the red and fallow deer who may make an appearance during your stay and if you stay quiet for long enough may come right up to the fence to investigate! On-street parking is available on the quiet road outside the cottage: it is unreserved and with no restrictions.

Superb Cotswolds stay

We used this delightful house as a base to explore the many villages and walks of the Northern Cotswolds . It had absolutely everything you could wish for in a holiday property - great location in a picture perfect village, gorgeous country views, great beds and linen, and cosy couches .

Blockley: Hidden Cotswolds Gem

Blockley is a beautiful little town in the Cotswolds not far from Chipping Camden. Blockley has a friendly and delicious cafe where my friends and I enjoyed a fabulous three course dinner. It’s right next to another treasure, a well stocked grocery store. Swift Cottage was perfect for our Cotswolds week. It was warm, snug, and cozy. We would stay again!

A New Favorite

I felt right at home as soon as I got to Swift Cottage! It is decorated in a comfortable and cozy style, and the view is captivating. I appreciated walking to the Great Western Arms for dinner, the Village Shop for breakfast, and the available parking right outside the cottage's door. Blockley is quiet and charming, and though I had never been there before booking this cottage, it's now one of my favorite villages in the Cotswolds!

A perfect place for a week in The Cotswolds

After searching for 'the perfect cottage' for our visit to the Cotswolds, we decided on Swift Cottage for our early family Christmas gathering (3 adults) and it did not disappoint. Situated in the gorgeous village of Blockley, we were able to walk to the local Cafe, village store and two pubs. The cottage was very comfortable, including lovely beds, well stocked kitchen, two bathrooms and a lovely gas fire. The Christmas tree and decorations were perfect! The cottage has lovely views from at the front and back and we had fun walking to the nearby village of Broad Campden. We hope we can visit again one day. Note: rent a car if you want to explore further afield, or use the local taxi company for short trips, eg. To the train station in Moreton-in-Marsh.

Swift Cottage

We had a lovely comfortable stay and Jo the housekeeper was very helpful. There were some issues with the gas and oven which Jo fixed for us on our arrival. Some items around the cottage would benefit from upgrading/replacing.

Swift Cottage in Blockley is charming, clean and very well-equipped. The view out the east windows, on each floor was enchanting. And different in every light. We took dozens of photos.It is an easy walk into the village, with plenty of on street parking, and Blockley is right in the middle of the Cotswolds. One caveat: the cottage is on three floors, with steep, narrow stairs. so unsuitable for people with limited mobility. Having said that, we hated to leave.

Lovely gem in the Cotswolds

This was such a great find! The photos do not do justice to the cottage or the outstanding views - probably the best I’d say - and great location. Jo, whose cleaning services are responsible for the upkeep, was prompt to respond and service any areas that needed it. She was also very helpful in providing suggestions for the area. Only downsides are: - No dedicated car parking spot, but we were able to find something out front everyday. - No air conditioning. This was not as much a problem for us as the weather was lovely when we visited. - A few of the seat cushions could use some refurbishing eg the dining area bench cushion and the sofa cushions.

Pure relaxation

Swift Cottage was immaculately presented, a calm and well appointed property. It is one of the best that we have stayed in along Park Road. It is amazing to see the deer grazing in the fields at the back of the property. A friendly cat came to visit on a few occasions, We would rent this cottage again.
