It is set in the Lockeridge Dene (a dry valley), and is surrounded by fields full of Sarcen stones. In pre-historic times some of these stones were dragged 3 miles to make World Heritage Site, Avebury Stone Circle.
There are many other Neolithic sites to see in the area; West Kennet Long Barrow and Silbury Hill are among the best known locally. Stonehenge is about 25 miles away and an easy drive.
There is a bluebell woods just up the hill which is amazing in late spring, but beautiful anytime of the year. We are on the North Wessex Downs so it's great walking country. There is the National Cycle Route 45 a mile away, as well as good off road cycling. If you're not feeling energetic the cottage is very cosy and a great place to sleep, relax and rejuvenate. It has a beautiful English country garden with an guest area for you too use.
Marlborough is our nearest town about 3.5 miles away. It is a market town with a Waitrose and Tesco supermarket as well as great shops and restaurants including Rick Stein's Fish Restaurant, Indian and Italian restaurants.

Summary: Lovely, cosy cottage. One bedroom and the spacious bathroom is on the ground floor so avoiding a steep narrow staircase leading to the remaining bedrooms.Very peaceful surroundings and beds and bedding of excellent quality so we all slept soundly

Summary: Our stay here was absolutely amazing. Communication with Jessica was fantastic and she is such a joy! The house is absolutely everything you would want from a Cotswold Cottage. The location is perfect for a base from which to make daily day trips all around the Cotswolds and surrounding areas. Just be sure to watch your head if you are like me, over 6 ft tall. I bumped mine a few times, but honestly, it just was all part of the charm of an amazing and historic property. Without question, I can recommend staying here, and it would sleep 6-adults very comfortably! Thank you Jessica, we LOVED our time in your cottage!!

Summary: A really lovely house in a beautiful peaceful location. Comfortable ( especially the beds) and cosy. So nice to be able to go for walks straight from the front door and an ideal spot for visiting Avebury and other ancient sites in the area. The owner was friendly and helpful. Would love to return.

Summary: The house was ideal for our family group, 2 couples and 2 little ones. Host was exceptionally friendly and kind. Had a cot for the baby and actually purchased a highchair for our convenience as well. The location is ideal for exploring the Cotswolds, Wiltshire, Stonehenge and Bath and all surrounds and close to easy access from London. Great local pubs and near a playground. Certainly recommend.
