Set on the edge of this beautiful village, Elmes Barn (prounces 'elms') is a wonderful detached Cotswold country bolt hole that provides generous self catering accommodation, in a location that offers much more than meets the eye! For starters there is a highly recommended pub about 5 minutes walk down the lane & countless walks in every direction to build an appetite, while Royal Tetbury with all its treasure trove antique shops & gorgeous shops is only 5 mins drive away. The 'royal' bit is more to do with the fact that Prince Charles lives about a mile away! Add to these the many gorgeous villages just like Leighterton that pepper the area & you have plenty to help you soak up that Cotswolds' experience. Inside the barn is furnished simply but comfortably, with an open plan living area, well equipped kitchen - all very bright & airy with large windows looking towards the fields. The two bedrooms are similarly large & bright (even when we came & inspected on a miserable January day!) making this very much a clean cut, retreat that will be utterly gorgeous in the summer months & sunshine. A great choice for this hidden area of the Cotswolds.ACCOMMODATION (all on one level & underfloor heating throughout) Entrance into small lobby which leads to the living area. The Living Area has two large sofas, TV with Freeview plus DVD player. Kitchen Area is well equipped with electric hob, oven & grill, microwave, washing machine plus fridge with freezer compartment.
