It is just 0.3 miles from the centre of Winchcombe and sits slightly back off the Winchcombe to Broadway Road behind a tall hedge that provides a cossetted and private setting. An immaculate driveway, planted with country cottage flowers and shrubs, provides parking for up to five cars. The 102-mile-long Cotswold Way passes the front door and guests can walk across the fields to Sudeley Castle & Gardens. The owners of Kingfisher Cottage have created a very well-equipped holiday home with a spacious, interconnecting ground floor area that features a kitchen-breakfast room, a living room, and a large conservatory that's both an elegant dining area and games room, with a full-size pool table. Kingfisher is ideal for disabled guests as it has a ground-floor twin bedroom with a Craftmatic electric bed and a fully accessible wet room. On the first floor are four very well appointed ensuite bedrooms, four with standard double beds and one twin. Kingfisher Cottage has a wonderful garden. The owners love of gardening is immediately obvious as it is planted with a huge array of flowering annuals, perennials and bushes, as well as having mature trees, a delightful flower-covered pergola and a lovely expanse of lawn. Immediately outside the breakfast room and the conservatory is a long patio with a border full of flowering plants, and a wooden fence that backs onto the bank of the River Isbourne. Open fields lie beyond with the Cotswold countryside immediately accessible via a footpath to the side of the house. The patio has a beautiful, hand-built wooden table to seat 10 guests and two bistro tables with parasols. On the lawn are four sun loungers and a garden bench. Ground Floor The entire ground floor area features a beautiful, polished limestone floor with underfloor heating, rugs and has a pleasing and calming neutral palette of colours. Entrance Hall: At the front porch you'll be greeted by a delightful, mosaic kingfisher, handmade by the owner, which sets the welcoming tone of this holiday cottage. Step through the front door, which is surrounded by beautiful flowering plants, into the long entrance hall. Here you will find a handy bench to perch on, while taking shoes and boots off, hooks to hang up coats, umbrellas and a bureau to put maps, keys, phones and hats on. An open area under the stairs provides space to store a wheelchair. Living Room: The light and bright living room is at the heart of the home and is decorated in an attractive palette of country-cream with pops of purple. It is furnished with three comfy sofas, an armchair and footstool and features a gas-fired, wood burner effect fire, a 37" smart TV, occasional tables, and stunning lamps made by the owners. French windows open to the conservatory with a view through to the garden. Kitchen-Breakfast Room: The lovely light and bright country house-style kitchen is superbly equipped for every self-catering chef's need. The kitchen features a Rangemaster double oven and five-ring gas hob, double sink, a microwave, a full height fridge (a four-drawer freeze is in the utility room), and a long breakfast bar providing plenty of food prep space on one side and dining space with three bar stools to the far side. A tall, in-built dresser provides storage space for all the quality crockery, cutlery and serving plates, while glasses a plenty can be found in the cupboards to either side of the stove. At the far end of the kitchen, with French doors opening to the patio and garden, is a four-to-six-seater dining table and a breakfast bar with three bar stools - the perfect space for casual breakfasts, quick snacks or to seat younger members of the group should they prefer to dine separately. Utility Room: Just off the kitchen is a handy utility room where you will find a four-drawer freezer, sink, washing machine, tumble dryer, ironing board, cleaning equipment and a door that opens to the garden. Conservatory Dining-Games Room: Leading through from the living room on one side and the breakfast room to the other side is the conservatory, with its arching glass roof and fantastic countryside views. This fabulous room, with its 10-seater dining table, provides a wonderful dining space that's airy and bright in the summer and cosy in the winter - thanks to the underfloor heating. Beside the dining table is a long sofa and table with a sound bar and a full-size pool table. French doors lead directly from the conservatory into the garden, blending indoor-outdoor living perfectly when the weather allows. Bedroom One: The ground floor bedroom is furnished with twin single beds with bedside tables and reading lamps, a chest of drawers, wardrobe and a dressing table with a triple mirror and stool. Unique, homemade patchwork headboards and floral prints bring the room to life and, thanks to its wide doorway and accessible wet room and toilet just down the hall, the bedroom is perfect for wheelchair users, older guests or those with mobility issues. One of the beds is a Craftmatic electric bed with electric control. (Please request electric bed controls, entrance ramp and any other mobility amenities (see the ‘Facilities' list) on booking.)

There is a small smart TV, a wardrobe, an antique chest of drawers with a swing back mirror and a pretty, folding antique cane chair. Please note that this room has a low ceiling to one side as you walk in and would not be suitable for tall guests. Ensuite Shower Room: The largest of the ensuites, with a great view over the countryside, features a corner cubicle shower with a handset shower head, a WC, handbasin, a heated towel rail and mirror beside the window seat. Bedroom Four: This delightful, cosy double bedroom overlooks the fields to the rear of Kingfisher Cottage and features a beautiful, hand sewn patchwork quilt across the standard double bed.

Ensuite Bathroom: The ensuite features a P-shaped bath with an over bath handset shower, a WC, handbasin with a light, shaving mirror and shaver point, a vanity unit and a heated towel rail. Outside Kingfisher Cottage's private, enclosed garden is a dream for gardeners. It is a verdant, hedge-framed oasis filled with vibrant country flowers, lovingly nurtured by the owners. A large patio area, accessible via the cottage's conservatory and kitchen, offers a great spot for al fresco dining with its long dining table seating ten, bistro tables and charcoal BBQ. The well-sized lawn area has four sun loungers and a pergola, making it great for kids wanting some space to play in or for grownups to relax after a long day out walking and exploring the Cotswolds. Running alongside the garden is the River Isbourne, a gentle stream accessible via a public footpath to the rear, which provides a soothing soundtrack of running water during al fresco summer dinners. What's more, rolling fields as far as the eye can see offer a beautiful backdrop to the garden, making you feel well and truly in the heart of the country wherever you turn. ## Property amenities ### Internet - Available in the cottage: Free WiFi ### Parking and transport - Limited on-site parking (max 4 spaces) ### Kitchen - Dishwasher - Freezer - Hob - Microwave - Oven - Refrigerator - Toaster ### Dining - Dining table ### Bedrooms - 5 bedrooms - Bedsheets provided ### Bathroom - 5 bathrooms - Bathtub or shower - Hair dryer - Shower - Towels provided ### Living spaces - Dining table - Fireplace - Living room - Separate dining area ### Entertainment - DVD player - Games - Stereo - TV ### Outdoor areas - Balcony/patio - Barbecue grill - Garden ### Laundry - Laundry facilities - Washing machine ### Comfort - Heating ### Pets - No pets allowed ### Suitability/Accessibility - Smoke-free property ### Services and conveniences - Iron/ironing board ### Things to do - Arcade/game room - Billiards/pool table ### Safety features - Carbon monoxide detector (host has indicated there is a carbon monoxide detector on the property) - Smoke detector (host has indicated there is a smoke detector on the property) - First aid kit - Fire extinguisher ### General - Garden - Unit size: 2,239 square feet ## Similar properties ![Dining](https://images.trvl-media.com/lodging/75000000/74110000/74106400/74106366/55f41231.jpg?impolicy=fcrop&w=469&h=201&p=1&q=medium) ### Dog friendly holiday cottage with garden in the Cotswolds - Honeystone Cottage Withington, near Northleach - Kitchen - Washing machine - Dryer - Pet-friendly 9.4 Exceptional 22 reviews [](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Hotel-Search?startDate=2026-02-06&endDate=2026-02-07&selected=74106366&PinnedHotelID=74106366&HadPinnedHotel=true®ionId=-1&adults=2) ![Dining](https://images.trvl-media.com/lodging/111000000/110150000/110144400/110144397/088b364f.jpg?impolicy=fcrop&w=469&h=201&p=1&q=medium) ### Laurel Cottage - pet-friendly in Coln St Aldwyns Coln St Aldwyns - Kitchen - Washing machine - Dryer - Pet-friendly 9.6 Exceptional 7 reviews [](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Hotel-Search?startDate=2026-02-06&endDate=2026-02-07&selected=110144397&PinnedHotelID=110144397&HadPinnedHotel=true®ionId=-1&adults=2) ![Interior](https://images.trvl-media.com/lodging/97000000/96590000/96584500/96584461/3e248b37.jpg?impolicy=fcrop&w=469&h=201&p=1&q=medium) ### The Roost at Coln - Dog Friendly Romantic Retreat Coln St Aldwyns - Kitchen - Washing machine - Dryer - Pet-friendly 9.4 Exceptional 11 reviews [](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Hotel-Search?startDate=2026-02-06&endDate=2026-02-07&selected=96584461&PinnedHotelID=96584461&HadPinnedHotel=true®ionId=-1&adults=2) ![Exterior](https://images.trvl-media.com/lodging/88000000/87570000/87568700/87568604/006c9968.jpg?impolicy=fcrop&w=469&h=201&p=1&q=medium) ### Stable Cottage nr Cotswold Water Park/Cirencester Cirencester - Kitchen - Washing machine - Dryer - Free Wi-Fi [](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Hotel-Search?startDate=2026-02-06&endDate=2026-02-07&selected=87568604&PinnedHotelID=87568604&HadPinnedHotel=true®ionId=-1&adults=2) ![Exterior](https://images.trvl-media.com/lodging/89000000/88400000/88392400/88392311/31f79de5.jpg?impolicy=fcrop&w=469&h=201&p=1&q=medium) ### Tupenny Cottage, Old Mill Farm, Cotswold Water Park Cirencester - Kitchen - Washing machine - Dryer - Pet-friendly 10 Exceptional 2 reviews [](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Hotel-Search?startDate=2026-02-06&endDate=2026-02-07&selected=88392311&PinnedHotelID=88392311&HadPinnedHotel=true®ionId=-1&adults=2) ![Interior](https://images.trvl-media.com/lodging/88000000/87570000/87568900/87568871/w902h683x61y0-87eedb59.jpg?impolicy=fcrop&w=469&h=201&p=1&q=medium) ### Thames Cottage, nr Cotswold Water Park/Cirencester!

Location is excellent - you can walk to Winchcombe centre and to Sudley Castle. Diane, the owner, was very welcoming. The only minor observation was that the dining table chairs had lost their padding which made them uncomfortable to sit on We took up Diane's suggestion of a meal at The Corner Cupboard Inn in the village which we all enjoyed.. We would highly recommend Kingfisher Cottage ##### Clare C.

I would ideally recommend This review comes from a trusted partner site and has not been verified. ### 10/10 Excellent 7 Jan 2024 #### A comfortable property in an excellent location This very comfortable property was ideally suited for our extended family group, for our Christmas get together. The 3 spacious communal rooms were excellent, providing different relaxation opportunities for our party of varied ages ( 1 to 75 years ) & the pool table provided additional entertainment for the adults. The property is very well equipped, & was provided with a lovely Christmas tree & decorations. The house & garden are well positioned & have a lovely outlook to the rear. The property is only 10 minutes walk from the town centre, with a wide range of amenities. Winchcombe is a great base for local walks & visits to other Cotswold attractions. We particularly enjoyed our visit to the Spectacle of Light at Sudeley Castle. We were impressed with the service provided by Bolthole Retreats, & the property owners son was very responsive when we had a minor problem with the heating system. ### 10/10 Excellent #### Verified traveller 1 Sept 2025 Liked: Cleanliness, check-in, communication, location, listing accuracy We live nearby in Winchcombe and booked the house for a family get together as my daughter was over from Australia. It was a great success and enjoyed by everyone. ##### Verified traveller Stayed 6 nights in Aug 2025 This review comes from a trusted partner site and has not been verified. ### 10/10 Excellent #### malcolm s. 29 Sept 2025 #### Super stay in the Cotswolds Very professional in all areas. Owners live next door and will give helpful advice and help if required. Rooms comfortable and well equipped with tasteful design Nice homely touches like having binoculars available. I am looking for a negative and the only one I can give is the TV remote is difficult to master ! ##### malcolm s.

We understand that it was purpose built as a holiday let. The accommodation is good, the house is light, warm, well equipped and the owners were helpful. The house is close to a fairly busy main road and morning traffic noise combined with that of the boiler kept one of our number awake but there are sufficient bedrooms to move to somewhere quieter, unless full to capacity. ##### Catherine G.

Everything we needed was provided which was amazing considering we comprised a group aged 9 months to 90\. We appreciated having different seating areas that accommodated our large party - sitting room, conservatory and patio, and the kitchen/breakfast room was an ideal social area too. We appreciated the beautifully crafted touches of home decor and the love that had been put into the cottage to make it so welcoming. Many thanks to the owners in making our stay so memorable. ##### Julia D.

This home was absolutely perfect for our family's short stay in the Cheltenham area. The flower-filled garden allowed the kids to run around and play with yard games they discovered, we grilled out two of our three nights, and the home was so spacious that everyone was able to comfortably spread out. We adored the sunroom, and everyone played pool anytime we were home. The walk to shops was a quick 5-7 minutes, and the country walk to the castle was fantastic - just right out the back door! We would absolutely stay here again. ##### Amanda W.

All the rooms had fans which were really welcome as it was very warm. The house is in a lovely location so we didn’t need to go very far and had a very relaxing time ##### Julia H.

The comfort and convenience of the property are second to none, the younger members enjoy the snooker table in the conservatory and the proximity to the stream. Lovely garden, and well equipped with outside furniture, bbq etc. The town is within close walking distance, as is Sudeley Castle, and the helpful owners are on hand should anything need attention. The only slight downside can apparently be a miserable neighbour who complains about the slightest noise!

Good kitchen/dining/lounge space and the added benefit of a spacious conservatory with a pool table. The rooms were a good size even with a couple of low ceilings upstairs; having all upstairs rooms with en suite meant washing and changing for the various wedding events was so much easier. The views from the lovely garden were really good, backing onto a small stream and fields suitable for nice walks. Winchcombe itself is very quaint, typical of other towns in the area, with a couple of pubs and coffee spots to meet in for food or a quick cuppa. We also appreciated the flexibility from the agent in allowing us to check in a couple of hours ahead of schedule. ##### Colin H.

An abundance of kitchen utensils, we wanted for nothing and cooked in for two of our days, eating at the fabulous dining table in the beautiful conservatory. Beds are very comfortable and the bedrooms are excellent with each one having it’s own bathroom/shower. Great location too, we went to Cheltenham on the local steam train £8 each and walked to Sudeley Castle on another day, eating out in Winchcombe at The Corner Cupboard. No complaints from anyone in our party, we all loved it and rated it 5\*, thank you. ##### Melanie C. ### 10/10 Excellent #### Alison D. 10 Apr 2023 Liked: Cleanliness, check-in, communication, location, listing accuracy #### Super clean, relaxing family house We are a Canadian party of ten. We had such a lovely stay at Kingfisher cottage in Winchcombe. The village and surrounding countryside are charming. The house is right on a walking trail through fields and countryside to Sudeley Castle which was a hit for our entire family ages 4 to 50\. The house itself is very clean, very well equipped, thoughtfully decorated and comfortable. It had 5 bedrooms, 4 with ensuite. Perfect. I would definitely stay again. ##### Alison D.
