Description

The Court House ETC 4 Star, is a charming Grade I listed Stuart garden building from circa 1620. It has been imaginatively converted to provide a chic little cottage for two to four adults in the heart of the beautiful Gloucestershire Cotswolds. Originally, it was a banqueting house or gazebo, but more recently it has become known as the Manor's 'Court House', because here the successive Lords of the Manor of Owlpen would have held their Court Leet or 'Hamilton' - the "trying of their servants and tenants for petty offences"! ACCOMMODATION: Downstairs is the Kitchen and Bathroom, with a little loggia restored as an attractive Dining Room. The glass doors, divided by a simple Tuscan column, frame a view of the East Wing of Owlpen's Manor House.First Floor Please note: reached via a steep, narrow spiral staircase, leading to a Sitting Room in the old Justice Room. Main Bedroom with double bed (and a basin) beyond.Second floor (via steep narrow staircase.)Bedroom Two, with a four foot double bed. From this bedroom there is 'The Oval Birds Eye Window' which enjoys a delightful view towards Uley, whose church spire can just be seen among the trees below the summit of Uley Bury.In addition there are also twin beds under the eaves which are suitable for small/young children.Central heating and electricity included all year around. Ample parking at cottage.Please note: Friday or Monday changeover The property is screened to the east by some beautiful yew trees, known affectionately and locally as 'the ballroom'. The Court House enjoys its own sun terrace and garden to the west - complete with its unique baroque sundial on the wall.
