In addition there is a very well-appointed ground floor kitchen/dining room situated in the former mead cellar. Also on the ground floor are three bedroom suites. The apartment is a perfect country bolt hole; being secure, easily accessible and in a beautiful part of the Cotswolds. Outside there are beautifully maintained gardens with herbaceous borders, yew hedging, orchards and a rose garden. The orangery provides a lovely seating area.
