Tucked behind a private gate in the heart of Minchinhampton, this former coach house and stables have been imaginatively restored to offer comfort and relaxation. Consisting of two independent cottages (connected by a covered, cobblestoned cart shed), you’ll find elegant rooms, original features and plenty of socialising space – both inside and out. Child-friendly amenities are available on request, plus guests can enjoy access to a private garden and a hard surface tennis court. It’s also extremely well located with the nearest pub just a short walk away and easy access to beautiful walking trails.
