Description

Description

The Bothy is an intriguing character cottage situated within Westonbirt Estate Yard, located just a short walk from the Hare & Hounds hotel and restaurant, and the world famous Westonbirt Arboretum. The Estate Yard is a former mid-19th Century model farm originally belonging to Robert Holford's Westonbirt Estate and later was converted in 2006 by architects Edward Blake into nine luxury period bespoke homes. The Bothy is Grade II Listed and filled with all of the charm of a period home whilst being an easy to manage property, making it an ideal holiday home or lock up and leave. 
 
Extending to around to 1,241 sq.ft, the cottage is arranged over two floors and set amongst front and rear courtyard gardens. The ground floor is warmed by underfloor heating and comprises an entrance hall with a WC off, a front fitted kitchen and a reception room at the rear with a fireplace and double doors connecting to the rear courtyard. The spacious first floor includes three double bedrooms, a utility/laundry room, bathroom, dressing rooms to both the main and second bedrooms, and an en-suite shower room serving the main bedroom. 
 
The private courtyard gardens are easy to maintain. The rear courtyard is bound by Cotswold stone walling providing a good degree of seclusion and is a delightful area to dine outside. There are two allocated parking spaces, one of which is located within a carport. There is also allocated visitor parking and private external storage opposite the cottage.
