Hillview Cottage is a period townhouse that has been refurbished to retain its original character. The cottage is in a quiet location with beautiful walks from the doorstep, yet it is just a stone’s throw from the vibrant town centre with its tempting antique shops, independent boutiques, restaurants and cafes. Hillview sleeps five guest across three bedrooms, with one family bathroom, and has a secure, terraced courtyard garden. Tetbury is surrounded by delightful Cotswold Countryside whilst being conveniently located less than 30 minutes from the M4 and M5, with Highgrove, Badminton, Gatcombe, Westonbirt, Cotswold Water Park and Malmesbury all close by. One, well-behaved dog is accepted for an additional fee (please request). Hillview Cottage has a long and narrow, courtyard garden set over three terraces, each with seating areas, providing plenty of opportunities to eat and drink al fresco, particularly on the top level which has a raised deck and catches the sun. • Book with us to get exclusive discounts to top attractions and experiences.
