This one bedroom apartment is located in the village of Sherborne, just five miles from both Bourton on the Water and Burford.  You will find the nearest pub 3.5 miles away, where you can enjoy a pint of Donnington ale and locally caught fish, served by the River Windrush.  Sherborne itself is almost entirely owned by the National Trust and as such is very picturesque and unspoilt.  The National Trust property Lodge Park and Sherborne Estate run alongside Sherborne House, providing a variety of walks in 4,000 acres of rolling countryside and a unique deer course and park to explore.

Bourton-on-the-Water, known as the ‘Venice of the Cotswolds’ can be found five miles down picturesque rural roads.  Along with the teashops and gift shops that Bourton offers, you can also visit the Dragonfly Maze, Birdland Park and Gardens and the Cotswolds Motoring Musuem.   A short drive in the other direction lies the popular village of Bibury, often regarded as a classic Cotswold village.  Here you will find Bibury Trout Farm and Arlington Row, a row of weavers cottages built of the local Cotswold Stone next to the River Coln.

Windrush Apartment is well located for exploring the Cotswolds.  With The National Trust site Chedworth Roman Villa just 9 miles away you can view the remains of one of the largest Romano - British villas in the country.  Sudeley Castle, the previous home of King Henry VIII's wife Queen Katherine Parr, can also be found in the pretty town of Winchcombe a short drive away.  Here you can view the historic galleries and contemporary art, explore the magnificent gardens and visit the seasonal events.
