Setting the Scene

Woolley is a charming and historic hamlet, with roots dating back to Saxon times, set just north of the World Heritage City of Bath. Tucked within Woolley Valley, part of the Cotswolds Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty and designated Green Belt land, it offers an idyllic blend of rural tranquillity and easy access to city life. Surrounded by rolling countryside and far-reaching views, Woolley provides a peaceful escape and warm community, while being just an approximate 10 minute drive from the vibrant centre of Bath and its array of shops, cafes, cultural and sporting attractions, and amenities.

This sought-after location is ideal for those looking to enjoy a slower pace of life without compromising on convenience. The area is well served by both state and independent schools, including Swainswick Primary (within walking distance), St Stephen’s, St Saviour’s, St Mark’s, The Royal High School, and Kingswood. Excellent transport links to the M4 motorway approximately 10 miles to the north, easy access to nearby villages and Bristol some 15 miles to the west make it a practical choice for commuters. Additionally Bath Spa Railway Station provides a direct link to London, Bristol and South Wales.

Please note, there are no direct public transport links from Woolley itself, so it’s best suited to buyers with their own transport, whilst local amenities in neighbouring Larkhall Village and Lansdown ensure convenience. If your dream is to wake up to birdsong, soak in breath-taking views, and enjoy life away from the hustle and bustle, then welcome home.

The Property

Gable Cottage is an idyllic and spacious 3-bedroom stone built cottage with south facing garden and presents a rare opportunity to acquire a property without a chain. Situated on a no through road and boasting stunning views of the Woolley and Swainswick Valleys, the location provides a picturesque backdrop for a quintessential village lifestyle with walks through the valley straight out of the front door. Enter the warm and inviting interior to discover a wood burner for cosy fires, newly fitted windows and doors within the last few years, a new boiler installed just a year ago, and a new roof in January 2025, ensuring comfort and peace of mind for the future. The property benefits from a boarded loft with loft ladder providing ample storage space. The property features a large garage with plumbing and electrics, perfect for storage or a workshop.

Stepping outside, the south facing garden of this property invites you to unleash your creativity and transform this outdoor space into a personal oasis. Accessible from both the property and via side access, the garden features a raised decked area leading out from the reception room, offering a prime vantage point to soak in the open vistas. Although the decking requires attention and potential replacement, it offers a captivating elevated seating spot where one can enjoy the tranquil setting.

I am Melissa Anderson, Founder and Director of Camella. For the past 13 years I have worked as a Director at Rightmove, consulting estate agents and developers on how to market their properties to accelerate property sales and achieve the best possible asking price. I have developed a real passion for property with a desire to modernise the way for buyers and sellers to purchase their homes. Using traditional estate agent methods coupled with technology, Camella is on a mission to improve the home moving journey and take the stress away from one of the biggest investments in people’s lives. I am a proud Bathonian and fortunate to have lived and raised my family in the beautiful city of Bath for over 40 years. I attended St Gregory’s Catholic school in Bath, St Brendan’s Sixth form college and graduated from University of South Wales with a BA Hons in Advertising and Media. My local knowledge of the city, suburbs, and surrounding villages allows me to offer advice on schools, amenities, community hubs and dog walks, which I often take with my cockapoo Molly. There are many reasons for moving home and sometimes the journey is an emotional challenge. During my property career sellers have shared stories about a lack of service, empathy, and communication, causing unnecessary stress. At Camella whatever your circumstance we will work with you to make your property sell or purchase an enjoyable experience. Camella was born on International Woman’s Day bringing kindness and happiness into the property buying and selling process, putting people at the heart of moving home.
