Our Week at Owls Roost
This is a lovely property in a great location. Really close to Bourton on the water and other places to visit and yet on a working farm with beautiful countryside all around and horses roaming in fields nearby - including a new-born baby foal. The family living in the neighbouring property manage the house and so are available if needed and included the little boy we had with us with their children including riding the horses. We visited the local Cotswold Farm Park, Bourton, Stow on the Wold and also a wine tasting and vineyards tour at Larkhill vineyard in Tetbury. Some of our party played golf at Naunton Downs which was good and nearby but for several days we just relaxed in the gardens and soaked up the sun and enjoyed the views and hot tub.
