Overview
Nestled in the quiet, picturesque village of Cold Aston just three miles from Bourton-on-the-Water, Greystones Cottage is a beautifully restored historic barn. Combining original Cotswold stone walls and 300-year-old beams with modern comforts, this pet-friendly retreat offers secure parking for two cars and serves as the ultimate base for exploring the rolling hills of the Cotswolds.
The heart of the home is an inviting open-plan living area featuring a traditional inglenook fireplace and wood-burner. Double doors lead from the dining space to a fragrant cottage garden filled with roses and lavender. The cottage offers flexible sleeping arrangements, including a garden-view double room on the ground floor and two upstairs bedrooms—a twin and a king-size ensuite—complemented by a family bathroom with a freestanding slipper bath.
Beyond your doorstep, scenic Roman pathways lead to the nearby village of Notgrove, home to the friendly pot-bellied pigs at The Nuttery. A five-minute drive brings you to the bustling "Little Venice" of Bourton-on-the-Water, where you can explore the famous model village, riverside pubs, and quirky boutiques. Whether you’re soaking in Cotswold Lavender bubbles or hiking the countryside, Greystones offers a perfect slice of English village life.
