Cockshutt Cottage - Self-catering in Gloucestershire
Westley Farm, Chalford, GL6 8HP, Gloucestershire
England,
Reino Unido
Tumble down the track to Westley Farm and break free. Families will love Dan and Ali’s 70 acres which you are encouraged to explore. Two friendly dogs, free-range chickens and ponies to ride add to the fun. Let the children make new friends - there are woods to explore (and make dens in), meadows to picnic in and wildlife to spot.
Your one-storey retreat is open plan and well-equipped with logs for the fire, books, games and a telly if the weather turns foul. You’ll also find a private view-filled walled garden – a serene spot for a sundowner.
A 15-minute walk will take you to Chalford and the Lavender Bake House for tea and cakes or hop in the car to explore Stroud and stock up at the farmers’ market (every Saturday) and The Brewery. You can also walk there along footpaths then get a taxi back. The Crown is an amble away across fields.

Local points of interest from Dan & Ali:
Puntos de interés sobre la región de
Dan & Ali:
- Saddle up... Get on your horse, bareback or on a saddle. The owners can take novices and more experienced riders on a trek through the woods on their three steady ponies, Sailor, Carrot and Rolo. You might even get as far as the pub. Please book ahead.
- Local flavours… Stroud, just 4 miles from the farm, boasts the nation’s premier farmers’ market, as well as a vibrant cultural scene, bars, a cinema and the truly fab Stroud Brewery, organic, local and serving pizza and music at weekends.
- Take a hike… the farm is set in an area of outstanding natural beauty, and there are several walks that start and finish on the property – many of them passing one of the many wonderful traditional Cotswold pubs.
- Swing a club… the neighbouring Minchinhampton Common, a remarkable hilltop site with Iron Age and Bronze Age features as well as roaming cattle, is also home to one of the wildest golf courses this side of Scotland. A uniquely challenging experience.
- Take a dip… indulge your inner adventurer at the Cotswold Water Park, offering an enormous array of activities, from wakeboarding to angling.
- Past pleasures… history comes alive at Berkeley Castle, where you can peek at the room where Edward II was reputedly murdered, or marvel at the sumptuous setting of Sudeley Castle, where Katherine Parr, Henry VIII's last wife, is buried.
