Vendors' thoughts: "The cottage, the former derelict wash houses, is special to us due to its location in the heart of village but offering very private space, and so close to the Norman Church to hear the Bells on Sunday morning and the proximity to the Swan and Catherine Wheel for lunch or dinner. When we took it on over 12 years ago the attraction was to convert the old derelict wash houses into a wonderful country home with as many of the original features as possible. It is future proofed with complete renovations allowing the next owner to enjoy its location and make the property their own."

In a nutshell: A quaint and perfectly positioned Cotswold cottage.
