The unspoilt village of Naunton is tucked peacefully away in the heart of a valley though just off the main tourist trail. Well served with a traditional village pub, a historic dovecote situated in a beautiful spot by the river Windrush, along with a wealth of walking, golfing, cycling and horse riding that makes its way through the breath-taking countryside and picturesque hamlets. Offering easy access to a host of attractions The Cotswold Farm Park, Daylesford organic farm shop, numerous National Trust properties and gardens. Further afield Cheltenham and Stratford upon Avon are both great for a day at the races. With many local festivals throughout the year including both the food and literature.

Step into this breath taking property, a spectacular vaulted barn with beautiful exposed beams. Enter the property into the open-plan lounge/kitchen/diner which offers the perfect space for a romantic get away. Tastefully finished with a clever mix of both old and new, on a chilly evening why not light the wood burner and relax with a good book or a movie on the comfy sofa with TV/DVD. The kitchen area, contemporary in style has an electric oven and hob, microwave, fridge/freezer and dishwasher and is perfect for preparing a romantic supper for two. There is also a shower room with shower and WC on this floor. When the day is done, climb the wooden stairs onto the mezzanine with vaulted ceilings and exposed beams to a king-size bedroom with garden views.

Thank you for a lovely stay. The Old Cart House is a lovely cosy place in a beautiful part of the world. Our dog loved the paddock for running around in. Great local pub with a good menu and brilliant with dogs.. Shame about the weather! But we can not control that. Plenty of places to visit nearby and very helpful owners next door
