2 Bedroom Cottage in Alton Barnes, Marlborough

The Old Dairy is a relaxing and tranquil cottage in the heart of the rural Pewsey Vale, Wiltshire.
Renovated in mid 2021 the property is located on the edge of the small family run horse yard, part of the working farm, and about 100 yards around the corner from our small and exclusive caravan site limited to 5 campers or less (Perfect if you want to holiday with family who have a caravan). There is ample off road parking for several vehicles and is completely self contained.
Step into your holiday haven, where every detail is crafted to embrace you in warmth and comfort. As you open the door, the heart of the home beckons – a kitchen and dining space that whispers tales of joyous gatherings and delicious feasts.
In the kitchen, you'll find all the essentials for your culinary adventures – a microwave, toaster, kettle, and a sleek electric oven grill and hob combo. And because we believe in making your holiday truly carefree, there's even a dishwasher to tackle the cleanup, sparing you from any unnecessary toil. The kitchen sides gracefully unfold in an inviting L-shape, offering ample room for your creativity. On the opposite side, a dining table eagerly awaits, ready to host the delightful spread of your holiday treats.
As you venture further, the living room unfolds, a sanctuary of relaxation. Sink into the embrace of two sumptuous faux leather sofas, circling around an old well transformed into a captivating glass coffee table. Feel the warmth emanating from the faux wood fire, a comforting companion on cooler nights. The smart TV invites you to unwind with your favourite movies, completing the perfect evening in.
Ascend the stairs, and the cozy charm continues. The master bedroom, adorned with a king-size bed, invites the sun's gentle rays through its windows. A built-in wardrobe and chest of drawers stand ready to cradle your belongings, and for your convenience, a hairdryer and tower fan are at your disposal. The second bedroom, a versatile retreat, can be configured as a king-size bed or twin singles, accompanied by a chest of drawers.
At the end of the hallway, discover the family bathroom – a haven of modern aesthetics and relaxation. Immerse yourself in the spacious walk-in shower and revel in the pristine ambiance.
Outside, a small picket fence frames the idyllic spot for morning coffees, complete with a flowered planter and a welcoming garden bench. Overlooking grassy fields, it's a tranquil retreat. The picket fence ensures your furry friends remain close, while just opposite, a fully fenced grassed picnic area invites joyous moments for both children and dogs or a serene evening picnic.
Venture beyond the gate, and the world opens up. Offroad walking trails beckon, leading you to the nearby Kennet and Avon Canal towpath, a mere 2-minute stroll away and is great fro cycling. Your holiday escape awaits, blending the coziness of home with the wonders of the great outdoors.
Your furry friends are welcome on the ground floor of the property (a small additional cleaning fee applies). There are several dog friendly pub's / Cafe's within a few miles offering opportunities for a quick refreshment while walking!

Summary: We booked the cottage for two nights and the party included a small child of 18 months. She was enchanted with the horses nearby at the stable. Peaceful and relaxing setting with lovely views. The cottage had everything we needed including a thoughtful welcome pack. The property lies in a tranquil village in the Vale of Pewsey with lots of walks and the nearby Kennet and Avon Canal. In all, a comfortable, well-equipped cottage in an area of Outstanding Natural Beauty.
