Live the Cotswold dream in a picturesque village...
​​
Greystones Cottage is about as Cotswolds dream life as it gets. You’re in a quiet but picturesque village that most tourists have never heard of, so you can wander the village and into the fields with no one but a few locals to pass on your way.
And best of all, you’re staying in a 300 year old cottage, bursting with historic character from the exposed Cotswolds stone to the log burner in the fireplace. This is the place to escape to, and never want to leave.

Why I love this Cottage Gem
“Greystones Cottage is the place for a quiet life. You can potter around in the garden and hear only birdsong, or snuggle up front of the fire and forget the rest of the world exists. It’s not every day you get to stay in such an old building, and it really gives you a hug when you walk in.
Cold Aston as a village is hugely overlooked, and there are so many scenic walks right from the cottage front door. You won’t be isolated though, as the village pub is right next door for a quiet drink or something to eat.”

Location
​Cold Aston is a small, quiet village just a few minutes from Bourton on the Water. Bourton on the Water is one of the most iconic Cotswolds villages, with good reason. Quaint cottages cluster around the village centre where the river Windrush flows quietly through criss-crossed by little brides, earning Bourton its nickname of "the Venice of the Cotswolds". Here though the river runs clear and is shallow enough for paddling!
​
Bourton on the Water punches above its weight when it comes to amenities, with UK-leading restaurants and pubs, attractions like Birdland and the Cotswold Motoring Museum (home to Brum) as well as independent shops and cafes. You can also walk from the village to Hawkstone Brewery, where Jeremy Clarkson's beer is made, for a guided tour or drink at the bar.
​
The village also makes a great base for exploring the wider Cotswolds, with direct walks to villages like the Slaughters and the Rissingtons, and being no more than a 30 minute drive from popular towns like Stow on the Wold, Burford, Broadway and Cirencester.
