Dumbleton is a small village set on the edge of the Cotswolds in an area of Outstanding Natural Beauty. A beautifully situated Cricket Club is just up the lane with parkland and fields on either side. The Clubhouse bar is open most evenings and weekends in the cricket season. The property is ideal for walkers and dog owners and is on the route of The Winchcombe Way with Broadway and The Cotswold Way nearby. It is also ideally situated for visiting the North Cotswolds, Stratford and Cheltenham. The local village club is open every evening from 7pm and has a bar, full size snooker table, pool table, darts board and skittles alley. The village also has a beautiful church which is worth a visit. The village is close to the following villages and towns: - Broadway, Stanton & Winchcombe (10 minute drive). - Chipping Campden, Stratford-Upon-Avon, Stow on the Wold, Moreton in Marsh, Bourton on the Water, The Slaughters, and Cheltenham (20-30 minutes) Private parking on the shared drive in front of the property is available for a maximum of 2 cars, however on-road parking is also available free on charge. A car is essential as there are no daily bus services to/from the village. There are no street lights in the village so a torch is essential if walking out at night.
