Summary:
Nestled in a serene farmyard setting, this characterful two-bedroom hideaway boasts panoramic Gloucestershire countryside views.

Each bedroom offers distinctive charm, while the peaceful rural location and sweeping vistas provide an idyllic Cotswolds retreat.
The Space:
Elm End Cottage is a welcoming single-storey retreat where comfort meets authentic farm life. Set within 58 acres of working farmland and tucked peacefully beside the River Isbourne, this characterful hideaway offers breathtaking views across rolling ridge and furrow fields that epitomize the Gloucestershire countryside.
The heart of the cottage is the stunning farmhouse-style kitchen with original character features - perfect for morning coffee while watching the mist rise over the surrounding fields, planning your Cotswolds explorations, and those relaxed evening meals that naturally extend into the night.
Your comfortable living and dining room features heritage charm with exposed original features that speak to the cottage's agricultural heritage, while the warming gas fire creates that quintessential Cotswolds atmosphere for cozy evenings. The thoughtful layout flows naturally between spaces, ideal for couples or small families seeking an authentic countryside escape.
The two peaceful bedrooms each offer their own distinct charm - a restful double bedroom and a flexible twin room that adapts perfectly to your needs. The modern shower room provides contemporary comfort within the cottage's traditional framework.
The tranquil farmland setting means you'll wake to the gentle sounds of working farm life rather than traffic noise, while guests are welcome to explore the surrounding fields and discover the many public footpaths that weave through this beautiful corner of the Cotswolds. The landscaped plains and stunning scenery create an ever-changing backdrop that reminds you you're truly experiencing authentic rural England.
Guest Access:
We'll send you all the access details through our booking platform before your arrival, so you can settle in at your own pace. The cottage sits at the end of a peaceful tree-lined drive, so you'll know you've found your quiet escape the moment you arrive.
The Neighborhood:
Dumbleton is one of those lovely unspoiled Cotswolds villages that feels genuinely authentic - no tourist crowds, just peaceful countryside and friendly locals. You're perfectly positioned here, with the chocolate-box village of Broadway (often called the 'capital of the Cotswolds') just a short drive away for browsing shops and enjoying a proper pub lunch.
The cottage sits on working farmland, so you'll wake up to genuine country views and the gentle sounds of rural life. Public footpaths crisscross the area, making it easy to explore the rolling countryside on foot, and you're welcome to wander the farm's own fields down to the nearby River Isbourne.
For bigger adventures, you're well-placed for day trips to historic Tewkesbury with its stunning medieval abbey, the regency spa town of Cheltenham, or charming Winchcombe with its beautiful abbey and walking trails. Stratford-upon-Avon is also within easy reach for a proper day out.
But honestly, you might find the peace and beauty right here at the cottage is exactly what you came for.
The nearest shop and pub are about 3 miles away - far enough to feel properly remote, close enough for essentials when you need them.
Getting Around:
The cottage comes with ample off-road parking right outside, so your car is sorted from the moment you arrive. You'll definitely want to keep it handy - this is genuine countryside, so having your own transport opens up all the best bits of the Cotswolds.
Broadway is just a short drive away for your essential village browsing and pub lunches, while Winchcombe, Tewkesbury, and Cheltenham are all easily reachable for day trips. The roads around here are quintessentially English - narrow, winding, and absolutely beautiful, especially in spring and summer.
If you fancy exploring on foot, there are lovely public footpaths right from the cottage, and you're welcome to wander the farm's own fields. The walking here is gentle and rewarding, with those gorgeous Cotswold Hills views as your backdrop.
The nearest shop and pub are about 3 miles away, so it's worth stocking up on essentials when you're out and about. But that's all part of the charm - you're genuinely away from it all here.
Other Things to Note:
Just a few practical bits to help you settle in smoothly:
The WiFi here is on the slower side - perfect if you're hoping to properly switch off and enjoy the peace, though it'll handle emails and basic browsing just fine.
Elm End is a single-storey cottage, so everything is on ground level - no stairs to navigate, which makes it particularly comfortable for guests with heavy luggage or mobility considerations.
The cottage sits within 58 acres of working farmland along the River Isbourne, so you might hear the gentle sounds of rural life - tractors during the day, sheep and cattle in the surrounding fields, that sort of thing. It's all part of the authentic countryside experience, and you're welcome to explore the fields and footpaths that surround the property.
Pet Policy: One well behaved dog welcome at an additional fee but must not be left unattended in the property and are not permitted on beds. Please clean up after your dog at all times.
