Home description
Barton Cottage is a 2 bedroom classic period cotswold stone semi-detached cottage situated on the edge of the Cotswold village of Bourton-on-the-Water. It's a 1 minute walk to the famous Mousetrap Inn (visited by Agatha Christie !). While many of the older cottages are quite cramped, Barton Cottage gives well appointed accommodation spread over 3 floors but still with all the charm of exposed beams, exposed stone walls and even a fully functioning wood burner.
The accommodation has been thoughtfully renovated to make a spacious and comfortable holiday cottage. The cottage was completely refurbished in 2008. The cottage comprises of an open plan ground floor with kitchen, dining area and lounge with open fire and real wood burner, original beams and Cotswold stone exposed walls. Barton cottage has a small patio area and there is off street parking for one small/medium car outside.

The Central England / Cotswolds / Cheltenham / Gloucester region
Probably the most popular village in the Cotswolds, and often referred to as the "Venice of the Cotswolds" because the River Windrush runs right through the centre. The combination of this clear sparkling water and the attractive low bridges crossing it create a charming scene, best enjoyed in the quieter times of day and quieter months of the year. Bourton-on-the-Water has many attractions, suitable for visitors of all ages.
The Model Village is a mini replica of the village itself, Birdland Park and Gardens offers woodland, river and gardens inhabited by over 500 birds, and the Cotswold Perfumery is a sensory experience with a difference! There is a good variety of shops, pubs, restaurants and tearooms.
Bourton on the Water area
Regularly voted one of the prettiest villages in England, Bourton-on-the-Water has more than its share of Cotswold houses and cottages, many of them three hundred years old, some dating back to Elizabethan times four hundred years ago.
Bourton-on-the-Water is only 4 miles from Stow-on-the-Wold and straddles the river Windrush with its series of elegant low bridges beside neat tree-shaded greens and tidy stone banks. Standing back from the river are traditional Cotswolds buildings, many of which are now tourist shops for the day-trippers and visitors.
Bourton-on-the-Water has been described as the 'Little Venice' of the Cotswolds and is one of the most popular tourist spots in the region being serviced by the many shops, cafe's, and attractions.
