Accommodation overview: Fine cottages and facilities – just a mile from one of England’s finest Regency towns . . . Occupying a superb position with wonderful rural views, yet within a mile or so of Cheltenham’s elegant town centre, these delightful holiday cottages have been created from a range of 19th-century barns and are furnished and equipped to high standards. All cottages enjoy a good choice of shared facilities including a covered heated swimming pool, an all-weather tennis court and a croquet lawn. The cottages are well equipped, with an automatic washing machine, microwave oven and dishwasher, and each cottage has its own sitting out area with patio and furniture.
All the fascinating corners of the beautiful Regency spa town of Cheltenham are immediately to hand: there is an art gallery, a museum, tempting boutiques, antique shops, plentiful restaurants and inns. Only a short walk away is Cheltenham’s racecourse, famous as the home of National Hunt Racing, which stages the Cheltenham Festival in March, as well as several other top quality race meetings between October and the end of April. The Pittville Pump Room, a magnificent Grade I listed building opened in 1830, has a museum on its top floor. In the ballroom it is possible to taste spa water from the original pump. Historic illustrations, photographs and small displays tell the story of Cheltenham from its beginnings in Anglo-Saxon times. The building is surrounded by attractive parkland with a lake and children’s playground, public tennis courts and golf course. Number 4 Clarence Road, built in 1832 by James Creed, is the house in which Gustav Holst was born on 21 September 1874, and where he spent the first seven years of his childhood. The Holst Birthplace Museum is a memorial to the composer and a rare treat for lovers of music. On the summit of nearby Leckhampton Hill above the Devil’s Chimney, a teetering rock column, is the site of an Iron Age fort; keen walkers can follow the Cotswold Way.
Hunting Butts Cottages provide a perfect base to explore the beautiful countryside and villages of the Cotswolds as well as the attractions of the Heart of England. The Cotswolds cast their spell on artists, naturalists, walkers and everyone with a love for rural peace and tranquillity: Broadway – the ‘Venice’ of the Cotswolds; delightful Chipping Campden; Blockley, described as the most beautiful village in England, and Stow-on-the-Wold boasting England’s oldest pub, are all within half an hour’s drive. The variety of attractions is almost endless. Exploring this region at any time of year is a rewarding experience, each season throwing a different light on the changing scene. Heritage attractions in the area include Sudeley Castle (7 miles), once home of Catherine Parr, containing Europe’s largest collection of toys, arms and armour. Forest of Dean 23 miles. Birmingham, Bath, Oxford and Stratford-upon-Avon are all within one hour by car. Sailing and wind-surfing on 15,000 acres of lakes near the ancient Roman town of Cirencester are available within 30 minutes’ drive. Shops ½ mile.

Weekly prices from £1300
Self catering accommodation in Cheltenham sleeps 8.
Features include: • Short Breaks • Pets allowed • Golf nearby • Detached • Garden • Sleeps 8
Accommodation overview: This late 18th-century detached barn conversion is situated in 2½-acre grounds complete with lake. Beautifully appointed and furnished to an exceptional standard and with an attractive garden. Situated off the A436 between Cheltenham and Bourton-on-the-Water, the location is ideal for exploration of this stunning region. With its picturesque villages such as Stow-on-the-Wold and magnificent churches built as the result of the medieval wool trade, the Cotswolds today are largely designated as an Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty, where long walks over the rolling hills can be enjoyed in comparative peace. With excellent restaurants (some with the coveted Michelin star award), pubs with delicious food and, in some cases, locally brewed beer, cafés and tea shops, the area abounds in things to do and see. Beautiful gardens such as Hidcote Manor and Kiftsgate Court, fascinating historic houses including Sudeley Castle and the exotic Sezincote House (forerunner of the Brighton Pavilion), Batsford Arboretum, Cotswold Wildlife Safari Park and the Cotswold Farm Park, home of rare breed sheep and cattle, leave little opportunity for wondering what to do. Slightly further afield, Stratford-upon-Avon is just 31 miles away and Oxford, 34 miles away. With the 18-hole Naunton Downs Golf Course only 3 miles away and country pubs from 2 miles, this is an ideal holiday base. Shop and P.O. 3 miles. Grand entrance hall extending to full height of barn with seating for eight, glazed barn doors overlooking the gardens, vaulted ceiling and galleried landing.
