Cottons Farm Estate comprises four characterful cottages nestled around a peaceful working farm courtyard, set within 58 acres of Gloucestershire farmland beside the River Isbourne. This unique retreat offers breathtaking views across rolling ridge and furrow fields that epitomize the Cotswolds countryside. The cottages: Maple Cottage (sleeps 5): Historic converted stables featuring exposed beams and a spacious family kitchen. Three bedrooms: 1 king-size, 1 twin, and 1 single. Two bathrooms. Poplar Cottage (sleeps 3): Characterful detached barn conversion with authentic period features and a cosy sitting-room with beams and gas fire. Two bedrooms: 1 double (5ft bed) and 1 single. Garden and patio with furniture. Elm End Cottage (sleeps 4): Part of the farm's original dairy conversion, this well-appointed single-storey barn offers beautiful views of the hills above Broadway. Two bedrooms: 1 double and 1 twin room. Pretty beamed sitting/dining-room with log-effect gas fire and well-equipped farmhouse-style kitchen. Garden and patio with furniture. The Willows (sleeps 4): Converted from the farm's old dairy alongside Elm End, this comfortable single-storey cottage features an attractive beamed interior. Two bedrooms: 1 double and 1 twin. Cosy sitting/dining-room with gas log-effect fire, well-equipped farmhouse-style kitchen, and large bathroom with shower cubicle. Garden and patio with furniture. Each cottage features stunning farmhouse-style kitchens with original character features - perfect for morning coffee while watching the mist rise over the surrounding fields, planning your group's Cotswolds explorations, and those relaxed evening meals that naturally bring everyone together. The comfortable living and dining areas throughout the estate showcase heritage charm with exposed original features that speak to the farm's agricultural heritage, while warming gas fires create that quintessential Cotswolds atmosphere for cosy group evenings. The thoughtful layouts flow naturally between spaces, ideal for large families, celebrations, or group retreats seeking an authentic countryside escape. Across the four cottages, you'll find nine peaceful bedrooms offering a variety of sleeping arrangements - from restful doubles and king-size beds to flexible twin and single rooms that adapt perfectly to your group's needs. Five modern shower rooms and bathrooms provide contemporary comfort within each cottage's traditional framework. The tranquil farmland setting means you'll wake to the gentle sounds of working farm life rather than traffic noise. With easy walking access (just one small step at most cottages), guests are welcome to explore the surrounding fields and discover the many public footpaths that weave through this beautiful corner of the Cotswolds. The landscaped gardens, patios with furniture, and stunning scenery create an ever-changing backdrop that reminds you you're truly experiencing authentic rural England together. Perfect for groups of up to 16 guests, the cottages can be booked individually for intimate getaways or together for memorable family gatherings and celebrations. Dumbleton is one of those lovely unspoiled Cotswolds villages that feels genuinely authentic - no tourist crowds, just peaceful countryside and friendly locals. You're perfectly positioned here, with the chocolate-box village of Broadway (often called the 'capital of the Cotswolds') just a short drive away for browsing shops and enjoying a proper pub lunch. The cottages sit on working farmland, so you'll wake up to genuine country views and the gentle sounds of rural life. Public footpaths crisscross the area, making it easy to explore the rolling countryside on foot, and you're welcome to wander the farm's own fields down to the nearby River Isbourne. For bigger adventures, you're well-placed for day trips to historic Tewkesbury with its stunning medieval abbey, the regency spa town of Cheltenham, or charming Winchcombe with its beautiful abbey and walking trails. Stratford-upon-Avon is also within easy reach for a proper day out. But honestly, you might find the peace and beauty right here on the farm - whether you're gathering together in the courtyard or enjoying your own cottage's private garden - is exactly what you came for. The nearest shop and pub are about 3 miles away - far enough to feel properly remote, close enough for essentials when you need them. Just a few practical bits to help your group settle in smoothly: The WiFi across the cottages is on the slower side - perfect if you're hoping to properly switch off and enjoy the peace together, though it'll handle emails and basic browsing just fine. The cottages offer a mix of layouts - Elm End & The Willows are single-storey with everything on ground level (great for guests with heavy luggage or mobility considerations), while the other cottages have stairs to upper floor bedrooms. This variety means there's something suitable for everyone in your group. The estate sits within 58 acres of working farmland along the River Isbourne, so you might hear the gentle sounds of rural life - tractors during the day, sheep and cattle in the surrounding fields, that sort of thing. It's all part of the authentic countryside experience, and your group is welcome to explore the fields and footpaths that surround the property together.
