Green Pump Cottage, Blockley

Gloucestershire. Sleeps up to 6

Nestled in the charming village of Blockley, sits this stylish three-bedroom property, Green Pump Cottage; the perfect rural retreat for a family or group of friends surrounded by lovely English countryside. Be welcomed into the bright and open living/dining room, which provides a tranquil space for you and your loved ones to curl up on the inviting sofas whilst watching a film, surrounded by original features such as Cotswold stone flooring and an open fire with slabbed hearth and wooden surround, which keeps the whole room toasty. A unique Cotswold stone wall with a viewing window sits adjacent to two steps which lead you into the kitchen, where you can cook delicious meals using the contemporary facilities, before dining around the wooden table or enjoy your meal alfresco style in the lovely patio area in the garden which sits next to the green water pump – where the property gets its name! - with a charcoal barbecue available to make use of on warmer days. When night falls, delight in a relaxing soak amongst the bubbles in the bath before heading to one of the three well-presented and welcoming bedrooms; a double on the first-floor and a double and single on the second-floor. Green Pump Cottage is situated in the peaceful village of Blockley, a picturesque village with a country pub, The Great Western Arms, a historic Norman church, Church of St Peter and St Paul, and the popular community owned shop and café which serves delicious food during the day and hosts a couple of dinner evenings too. Surrounded by wonderful countryside, there are many walks and cycle routes on Blockley’s doorstep including footpaths to the nearby market towns of Chipping Campden and Moreton-in-Marsh; in Chipping Campden you can start your day with a delicious breakfast at Campden Coffee Co before heading over to Dover’s Hill to enjoy the stunning views over the Vale of Evesham where you can join the Cotswold Way, which is a 100-mile walking trail, taking you through picturesque villages, breath-taking countryside and famous ancient sites and finish off your day with a heart-warming meal at The Swan in Broadway – the second stop on Cotswold Way! Make your way over to the bustling market town of Stow-on-the-Wold where you can take a walk around the market square, which is the heart of the community and offers boutique shops, tea rooms, pubs and restaurants, as well as the Farmers’ Market which occurs every second Thursday of each month, featuring inviting local produce.
