Self Catering Cottage/Home/Apartment Description

Near the old Cotswold market town of Stow on the Wold, hidden at the end of a private drive are two cosy self catering holiday cottages with far reaching and uninterrupted panoramic views. Set in a secluded, peaceful
location on a small working farm, they have been converted from
an original Cotswold stone barn. The open beams and exposed timbers retain rural character and charm, providing a sense of farming history. The accommodation has a private flower and lawned garden with seating, picnic tables and barbeque, ideal for summer breaks. Blackpitt is also charming in winter. Something we recommend is getting up early on a frosty morning when everything is still and quiet, when the roads are empty and the birds are singing in the hedgerows. As you tramp along the crispy ground you can see your breath in the cold air, it is these moments that capture the precious secrets of the Gloucestershire countryside.
The cottages are fully equipped with all essential appliances, bed linen and tea towels. We always welcome dogs, especially well behaved ones.
The washing machine and tumble dryer, both coin operated are in the tack room next to the cottages. An outside washing line and pegs are also available. There is a freezer in the tack room which guests are welcome to use.Stable Cottage is the larger of the two cottages at Blackpitt Farm comprising 2 bedrooms, one double and one single. Sleeping three to five people (there is sofa bed as well), this is just right for a family holiday or a country retreat with a group of friends. On the ground floor is the kitchen dining area, a stone arch leads through to the wonderful sitting room.
The kitchen embodies a typical farmhouse style with an electric oven
and hob, fridge with freezer compartment, microwave
and dishwasher. Well Cottage, the smaller of the two cottages at Blackpitt farm has a lovely warm and snug feeling to it. After a long and tiring drive, it is the type of place any weary traveler could wish to come home to. A wealth of wooden beams, cupboards and banisters is a prominent reminder of comfortable rural living. Featuring one double bedroom with an en-suite bathroom upstairs and an open plan kitchen and living accommodation down stairs, Well Cottage makes a great base for your holiday
