Area - Aldbourne, nestled in the Wiltshire countryside, is a quintessential English village offering a wealth of historic charm and natural beauty. The village centre of this vibrant community is known as The Square, and features a pond that has been a landmark since at least the 18th century, adding to the scenic beauty of the village.

The Green is the heart of the village and is a common gathering place for many of the Aldbourne community events, and is graced by the beautiful 11th century church St Michael’s, which overlooks the picturesque village green.

Aldbourne boasts incredible amenities, including an Ofsted rated outstanding primary school, two excellent pubs The Blue Boar and The Crown, a post office with delicatessen and café, a small Co-Op supermarket, a sports and social club and a Memorial Hall. There are also many clubs for all ages.

The Owners Love - “We absolutely loved our time living in our cottage, which offered a great combination of countryside living whilst only a stones throw from bigger places such as Swindon, Marlborough and Newbury. Our favourite times were al fresco dining in the courtyard area on a warm summer's evening and cosying up to the log burner in the winter. The village has a great selection of amenities such as the deli, post office, tea rooms, pubs and a Co Op all in one village and an active community with multiple events such as funfairs and music on the green throughout the year, which made it a joy to live there.”

Kim Loves - "The current owners have done an amazing job in restoring this cottage to offer modern features, yet still with much charm. I adore the view of St Michael's Church from the lounge and bedroom; it's a very special view."
