Westerleigh Cottage, Cowley, Cotswolds | Hütte in Cheltenham

As you approach Westerleigh Cottage, set down a paved garden path away from the lane, overlooking nothing but sweeping green fields filled with grazing livestock and woodland, you may feel as though you have reached a Cotswold paradise. Constructed of the iconic honey-coloured Cotswold stone for which this area is so well-known, Westerleigh Cottage is the perfect blend of mod-con luxury and unique country-cottage features.
From the gated gravel driveway with secure parking for up to four cars, you can admire the stunning views. With a secure fenced garden stretching around the house, there is plenty of space to enjoy the fresh country air and relax. A paved patio area wraps its way around the front door and sitting room, with additional sets of two patio doors providing further access straight from the sitting room to the patio. On the patio you will find a beautiful large glass-topped outdoor dining table with seating for up to eight guests and retractable parasol, as well as lovely comfy corner seating with a coffee table - perfect for a drink as the sun sets.
Westerleigh Cottage has featured in several glossy magazines. Once you step inside, you'll see why. Decorated throughout in complimentary Farrow & Ball earth tones, with unique contemporary twists on traditional country home grandeur, with a sensory emphasis on raw materials, from the exposed Cotswold stone walls and brick fireplaces, original timber beams, copper furnishings throughout the kitchen and velvet adorned sitting room furniture. Guests have full use of the house with its spacious sitting room, slick kitchen/dining area, luxurious master bedroom with en-suite, cosy twin bedroom, charming child's bedroom and opulent family bathroom with perhaps the biggest free-standing bathtub in the Cotswolds!
Ground Floor
Entrance Hall:
Step through the front door into the welcoming Entrance Hall, decorated in soft slate grey tones. Slip off your shoes and immediately feel a sense of homely warmth thanks to the underfloor heating throughout the ground floor. There's plenty of hooks to hang your coats and space to leave shoes.
Downstairs WC:
A convenient downstairs toilet and washbasin, perfect for a guest sleeping on the pull-down wall bed in the sitting room. Filled with an array of interesting and quirky artwork, this WC proves that even the smallest of spaces can be stylish!
Sitting Room:
The main feature of this bright spacious room is the large Cotswold stone fireplace which houses a cosy woodburner for guest use. Painted in neutral shades, the quirky country features set the tone in this room, with thick brushed cotton tweed-effect blinds, a gingham inspired feature wall and antler themed decorative pieces. Get cosy around the fireplace on the sumptuous velvet sofa and foot stool and high-backed armchairs and be sure to make use of the soft blankets and throws. Tune into the Smart TV, settle down for a movie night using the DVD player, or even get the competitive spirit going with a boardgame from the vast selection in the sideboard to the right of the fireplace. The sitting room makes for the perfect relaxing environment to lose yourself in a book, and there's plenty of lighting, including a lovely retractable overhead reading lamp.
Towards the back of the room is a separate area containing a rocking chair and the pull-down double wall bed. This area can be separated from the rest of the room with a thick partition curtain, allowing privacy - the perfect hide-out for younger guests. There are two sets of patio doors in the sitting room from which the patio can be accessed.
Kitchen-Dining Room:
A breath-taking space, perfect for cooking and dining. This room is part of the original house, as illustrated by the beautiful exposed Cotswold stone wall, large disused fireplace and original beams. With two cushioned window seats, a dining table that seats 8 comfortably and 3 bar stools, you won't be short of places to sit and relax in this room. Decorated in cool neutral tones with warm touches of copper and slate-inspired work surfaces, the kitchen effortlessly conceals all the mod-cons you will need around the central island unit, including two fridges with a freezer compartment, Rangemaster 5-ring conduction hob double oven with remote controlled extractor fan, double Belfast sink, and a built-in wine cooler to name but a few. In the pantry next to the fireplace you will find a microwave and toaster (the toaster can be removed and used on the worksurfaces) as well as placemats and a few kitchen basics.

Master Bedroom:
The first thing that will strike you about the master bedroom is its lofty ceiling and ornate original beam structure. The second thing is the enormous, comfy super king size bed!
