Princess Elizabeth Cottage is a charmingly quaint retreat, perfect or those seeking a relaxed countryside stay. Named after Princess Elizabeth, who visited the castle on several occasions and who would later in her life become the infamous Queen Elizabeth I of England, this bolthole was originally part of a paper mill.

With exposed brick and wood beam features as well as a well-equipped open-plan kitchen and dining space, the cottage combines traditional décor with a contemporary elegance. Enjoy breakfast at the dining table whilst you plan how you wish to spend your day in this abundant location. This living room offers a cosy place to unwind in the evening with your loved ones.

Enjoy dining al-fresco at the outdoor seating area in the courtyard and soak up the tranquillity of rural life. Wander through the Cotswold stone lined village streets to Winchcombe, exploring an array of country pubs, restaurants, cafes and shops. Venture to nearby Cotswolds destinations such as Broadway, Cheltenham Spa or Bourton-on-the-Water for a lovely day out.
