2 Bedroom Cottage in Longborough, Lower Swell

Driving through the Cotswolds to your holiday destination you will pass by popular destinations like Stow-on-the-Wold, Upper and Lower Swell and Bourton-on-the-Water. When you arrive at Pineapple Spa Cottage the breathtaking carved stone façade is a reflection of the beauty you will find within. It is debated that the property was designed by Samuel Pepys Cockerell, the architect behind Sezincote House. The front door opens into the living room with a large ornate mirror, wood burner in a detailed surround and a luxurious sparkling chandelier in the high ceiling above. A comfortable sofa and armchair gather around the fire providing a comfortable place to enjoy an evening drink. An open stone wall showcases the pineapple font through an archway as you pass through to the rest of the cottage.
The well-equipped kitchen has an electric AGA, a Belfast sink and plenty of space to prepare delicious meals to be enjoyed around the four-seater dining table. Doors open from here to the lawned garden which you can climb to enjoy beautiful Cotswold country views. From the living room a number of steps lead you to the lavish bedrooms which have been furnished with a high attention to detail. The bathroom at Pineapple Spa Cottage is a fantastic addition where you will find yourself spending many hours. The freestanding reclaimed copper bath makes you feel like royalty as you soak away your worries.
With off-road parking for two cars and unmissable sights such as Sezincote House and Gardens, Chastleton House and the towns and villages of Chipping Norton, Broadway and Cheltenham a bit further afield this is the perfect Cotswold getaway.
Ground Floor
Sitting Room:
Full of unique features and eye-catching décor the first thing that takes your eye is the pineapple water fountain at the end of the room. No longer connected to the spa supply, many women over the years have visited this tiny spa for the health benefits of the waters here. A glass panel in the corner of the room shows the spa below and if you listen carefully you can hear the water trickling. There is comfortable seating for four, a wood burner, artwork showing the spa exterior and an upcycled dresser which used to house chickens. Full of character this sitting room is a beautiful space to spend your evenings.
Kitchen/Diner:
Two steps from the living room take you down to the kitchen/diner passing a handy WC on the left. The kitchen has enough space to prepare meals with an electric AGA and all the modern conveniences you could need. The dining table seats four in front of patio doors which open to the garden and patio.
First Floor
In front of the pineapple spa font, stairs curve around to the first bedroom.
Bedroom One:
The only room on this floor, this first bedroom is a king-size double with an elegant gold bedframe and luxuriously plump bedding. Built-in wardrobes hiding a pull-out TV and a dressing table with carved pineapple details around the mirror is perfect for getting ready for a meal out. There are mirrored bedside tables and wall lights to each side of the bed. Overlooking the garden this quiet room is a peaceful retreat.
Second Floor
More stairs take you up to the second-floor landing with a small bench, before there are three steps down to the second bedroom and the bathroom.
Bedroom Two:
In the eaves at the front of the cottage, this king-size double room has an open stone wall, exposed beams and a wooden floor. Decorated in a tranquil blue with a selection of books you can relax on the armchair with a cup of coffee. A bedside table and built-in dress offer storage and there is a lamp and TV. The ornate framed mirror adds a touch of luxury to this room.
Bathroom:
Completing this cottage is a stunning bathroom with a freestanding copper bath, separate shower, bowl sink unit and WC. The reclaimed bath holds its heat so you can spend hours here away from the real world. An old fireplace surround and open stone wall add a grandeur to this room.
Outside
A patio outside the kitchen has a dining table for four and leads up to a sloped lawn which looks out across surrounding countryside and a lake, above which the sunsets are spectacular. Opposite the cottage there is private parking for two cars.

Summary: My husband and I booked this cottage for my 30th birthday, and it exceeded all our expectations. The cottage is absolutely charming and beautifully decorated with thoughtful attention to detail throughout. It was spotlessly clean and fully stocked with all the essentials, making our stay incredibly comfortable. The beds were especially cozy, and every room reflected a tasteful, cozy aesthetic that made it feel like a true home away from home. The location is just a short drive from the lovely shops and cafes in Stow-on-the-Wold, which made exploring the area easy and enjoyable. Do note that the road leading to the cottage gets quite dark at night, so having a car is essential as there are no amenities within walking distance. Overall, a wonderful experience - we would definitely return!

Summary: Excellent property in all respects other than fronting directly onto a busy main road at peak times (60 mph speed limit). This was such a shame and detracted from our enjoyment of the incredible lounge. The property is described as nestling in the village which sadly is not really the case. Highly recommend the cottage itself if prepared to tolerate the road outside.

Summary: This place is unbelievable! Furnished with grace and style and with so many thoughtful details. Best vacation rental we've ever stayed in! I just wish they'd sent the code to access the property rather than making us take the initiative and have to try several times to reach the owner to get the code when we were ready to occupy the home. We never had to do that with other VRBO rentals. Minor flaw in an otherwise perfect vacation experience!

Summary: We were very impressed with this beautiful Cotswolds retreat. A pleasant walk into the centre of Stow and to a local friendly pub. Perfectly situated to visit other famous towns in the area by car. A very warm welcome was experienced on arrival. Just very slight difficulty finding it in the dark and I would encourage the owner to give the street name along with the Postcode. Other than that it was perfect in every way. Thank you

Summary: I recently stayed at this charming cottage, which was well appointed, clean, and very comfortable. The wood-burning stove and copper bathtub were both highlights. The owner was wonderful and highly responsive. A lovely welcome basket was provided, and soap was in each bathroom, but you should bring your own toiletries. One slight downside, which is of no fault of the owner, is that cars do speed down the road quite quickly and can be heard inside the retreat. This is only during the day and at bedtime it is quite quiet. One of the bedrooms does not face the street and is quieter than the other. Otherwise, cottage is in the perfect location to see most of the sites in the northern Cotswolds. I would stay here again.
