The Experience
This 16th-century house is as all homes should be: loved and lived-in. Find three-foot-thick walls, Persian rugs on flagstoned floors, sit-in fireplaces, stone-mullioned windows and masses of fresh flowers. The garden, enclosed by old stone walls, is full of birdsong and roses and you’re welcome to have tea and cake out here when you arrive, or settle in front of a roaring fire on fresher days.
Unbend in the book-filled sitting room, breakfast by a vast fireplace: home-baked bread, Gloucester Old Spot sausages and bacon from the butcher, smoked salmon and scrambled eggs, mushrooms on toast, just ask! Karin looks after you beautifully. Bedrooms, both upstairs, have bowls of Cadbury’s Roses and a packet of biscuits along with very comfortable beds and garden views.
Cotswold walks and hilly cycles await – The Monarch’s Way passes the back gate – but first explore what is said to be the smallest church in the Cotswolds, St James.

In this wonderful historic house Karin and James have created a homely Bed and Breakfast. Quiet rooms and comfy beds to sleep in. Log fire and homemade cake on arrival. Great breakfast with many things homemade. Sausage and bacon locally sourced. Recommended without hesitation.

Location
The neighbourhood
You're in a tiny, quiet hamlet on a hill with no light pollution and very little traffic. You can walk to Bourton-on-the-Water in half an hour but it's all uphill on the way back. 10 minutes in the car for Stow-on-the-Wold, very touristy with nice tea shops, clothes shops and good food. Guests recommend The Wheatsheaf Inn in Northleach; Burford is good for antiques and Daylesford for food.

Introducing
Karin & James Bolton
Karin and her husband James together run a garden design business and Border Lines, the oldest garden tour company in England. They've brought up four children and many dogs here. Karin has done B&B for 28 years and, remarkably, she still loves it, genuinely enjoys meeting new people and is brilliant at making them feel at ease. As she puts it herself she 'does merriment very well'.
Best experience we've ever had in a b&b! Lovely room in a gorgeous house, excellent home made bread and preserves for a delicious breakfast; a walled garden all around, fresh eggs every morning and Karin who suggests you every day the best things to do.
