Location
Masters Cottage occupies a set-back location on the edge of this well-regarded village, enjoying pleasant rural views towards Princethorpe College and beyond, and conveniently placed for access to not only the towns of Rugby, Warwick, Royal Leamington Spa and the City of Coventry but also the motorway networks of A45, A46 and M1 & M6.

Princethorpe is a small village at the confluence of the old Roman Fosse Way (B4455) and the Coventry to Banbury Road (A423), just to the north of the River Itchen. Other than being a pleasant environment in which to live, from the convenience factor, the location is ideal as, apart from direct road links to the former centres, the settlement is midway between Royal Leamington Spa and Rugby, both about seven miles distant, whilst the motorway network in the region, with the M45/M1, M6, M69 and M40, is easily accessible.

Close to hand is Draycote Water Country Park, the largest expanse of water in the County of Warwickshire, and especially popular for those who enjoy sailing, windsurfing and fly fishing, there also being wetlands, nature trails and bird hides.

Just outside the village and set in lovely grounds is Princethorpe College – a highly popular Roman Catholic co-educational independent day school accommodating pupils aged 11-18, and which welcomes members of all faiths. Also, located along Leamington Road and close to the subject property, is Our Lady’s Primary School having around 100 children between the ages of 4 -11.

Leamington, Rugby, Coventry and Warwick Parkway train stations offer brilliant direct services to London & Birmingham.
