About the home
Shepherds Cottage, Foscot is a delightful and classic Cotswold cottage sitting in a quiet village just a few miles from Stow on the Wold. A typical 1700s detached Cotswold stone property the cottage has undergone complete renovation and extension and is today equipped to a very high standard.
Externally, there is a substantial lawned garden (with off-street parking) surrounded by stone walls/close boarded fence, while the Oxfordshire Way runs through the surrounding Foxcote Farm (within the same ownership). Internally many classic Cotswold features remain including exposed walls, beams and a wood burning stove, mixed with contemporary touches and modern conveniences. With an excellent pub nearby, this is an exceptional choice for customers wishing to enjoy fine self catering standards.
