The Dovecote - Self-catering in Gloucestershire
Upper Court, Kemerton, GL20 7HY, Gloucestershire
England,
Reino Unido
You park up then walk down a path alongside the Millstream to reach your hideaway over three floors sitting right next to a beautiful lake replete with swans and ducks. There are rowing boats to borrow so you can glide along feeling at one with nature. The sitting room/dining and kitchen space is on the ground floor, cosy with underfloor heating and an electric wood-burner. The kitchen is fairly basic but adequate for holiday cooking and you'll find homemade biscuits and a bottle of Prosecco waiting for you.
Upstairs to the super cosy and private-feeling bedroom with a four poster bed, a sofa, the original dove nesting area and a picture window overlooking the lake so you can drink your morning tea watching the light on the water and listening to birds. Right at the top find the bathroom and an extra bed, but this place is better for two.
Sign up for a pottery or printmaking course, book a slot in the swimming pool or hot tub. Relax.
