About this property

5* Gorgeous Stone Cottage in an Idyllic Picture Postcard Village. Parking/Garden

  • Gorgeous 17th Century Cotswold Stone Cottage, in Blockley (a Picture Postcard Village, in the heart of the North Cotswolds) and perfectly situated to visit so many beautiful and historic villages and towns within a half hour / hour’s drive. Originally the property was the Old Coach House to a Manor House, which has been stunningly renovated and restored into what can now only be described as your very own Luxury Escape from the World of hustle and bustle.

    The Interior is both Contemporary and Classic, with that real Home from Home English Country Feel to it.

    The Cottage has had a complete Interior Makeover, which has been meticulously designed and planned out by the owner (also an Interior Designer) who has owned a couple of other Holiday Properties and is basing the Look and Feel of this little Gem, on many of her own travel experiences and selecting all the best ingredients to make your time at Lanterns as comfortable, relaxed and enjoyable as possible.

    The end result is like staying in your very own Private Boutique Hotel -( without the staff or the Restaurant in house ! ) with no other guests accept you and your friends or family to spend your time away with.

    Perfectly located right in the heart of the most gorgeous English Countryside (you can't really get much more quintessentially English than this Village, and it is still very much a Lived in Village with just a handful of Holiday Cottages, together with 1 Hotel, a thriving and sought after Pub (within a stones throw from the cottage), a delightful Village Shop and a great little Cafe, offering scurmptions breakfasts / lunches and occassional evening events, if you don't want to cook or travel too far.

    Blockley itself is a delight, and used to have 12 Mills back in the day, many of which can still be found, around the Babbling Blockley Brook . (a place to make great memories for Children and Adults alike). There are numerous walks from the gentle near by paths to the fabulous planned routes all across the stunning Cotswold Countryside. (Do bring your Wellingtons / Walking Boots if you can !)

    Detached Stone Cottage,
    Hand Made / Hand Painted Kitchen with all the main appliances you will need for your stay (Range Oven, Fridge, Freezer, Microwave, Washer/Dryer, Dishwasher, Kettle, Toaster, Nespresso Coffee Machine, Fully equipped with most of the items you would probably need for a Home from Home break away, and most equipment available too for any budding cooks out there).

    Private Walled Garden with 2 Patio Areas (one lower and one upper to catch the last rays of the evening sun, with a BBQ on upper level too).

    Parking for 2 Cars (if more parking needed there is free on street parking nearby).

    Walk to Pub (it's just over the road, couldn't get much more handy), Village centre a short walk away, Childrens Play Park just a stones throw away too, beautiful babbling brooks and surrounding countryside to take your breath away all around you.

    Blockley is one of the Cotswolds hidden Secrets, away from the busier Tourist Towns, but close enough to visit them all without being in the car for hours.

    Chipping Campden - 3 Miles
    Broadway - 5 Miles
    Moreton in Marsh - 4 Miles
    Stow on the Wold - 6 Miles
    Daylesford Organic Farm Shop - 9 Miles
    Soho Farmhouse and other places are slightly further afield but not too far away (all within around 1/2 hour to an hours drive) you will find Stratford upon Avon, Cheltenham, Oxford, Cotswold Water Park etc

    Minimum 3 Night Stay (however, please do enquire for 2 night rate out of season, as this may be possible if not booked back to back)

    Arrival anytime from 4pm, can arrange an earlier check in if not booked immediately before your start date. Please plan to vacate the Cottage by 11am on your day of Departure so that there is enough time to prepare it as you found it for the next Guests staying.

    Sorry No Pets (due to the high level of furnishings / standard of property).

    Lanterns is suitable for Babies, Toddlers and Children alike, and also suitable for anyone needing to avoid stairs / steps, as there is a lovely Bedroom on the Ground Floor Level, with Super King Size Bed (Harrison Pocket Sprung Zip & Link Bed, so this can be made up to Twin 3ft wide beds if preffered) with it's own private Stable Door out to the level Patio Garden Area (en-suite Shower Room too) and Lounge, Kitchen, Dining Area all on this Level Also.
    nb: Cot and High Chair available upon request.

    Two other Bedrooms and one large Bathroom with Roll Top Double Ended Bath and Seperate Large Shower / Wet Room are located on the First Floor - together with a lovely Snug / Relaxatio Area.
