A warm welcome awaits you at St Aldhelms in the bustling and historic market town of Malmesbury. On the edge of the Cotswolds you are well placed to visit Malmesbury Abbey and the Abbey House Gardens and further afield, Tetbury and Highgrove House. Pack your walking boots, as you can head out the door and explore the glorious surrounding countryside.

Stepping into this former coach house you are welcomed into an open plan living area, which has been tastefully furnished by the owners to create a delightful home-from-home. The modern kitchen has been well-equipped with all you need to concoct super meals to share. Take advantage of the local butchers and bakers to stock up on some delicious ingredients so you can cook up a storm. Curl up on the sofa with a book or browse the Smart TV to find a film to enjoy together after a relaxed dinner at the dining-table, perfect for just two!

On the first floor you will find a cosy and comfortable bedroom, ideal for lazy mornings savouring the slower pace of being on holiday. Dressed in luxurious linens, it is a welcome retreat after a busy day exploring. The well designed shower-room is ready for you to freshen up as your day begins.

One small/medium dog may be accepted on request, this is at the owner's discretion.

Parking is available in the nearby public long stay car park (350 yards distant) with the first night paid if you give the owners your vehicle registration and arrival time in advance.

Take some time to wander around the interesting streets and alleyways of Malmesbury, there is plenty to look at and explore - the Athelstan Museum has some interesting exhibits and is named after King Athelstan the first King of England who is buried in Malmesbury. Close by is Tetbury, a classic Cotswold town, which is well-known for its antique shops, alongside a choice of specialist food and clothing shops.

Not far from Tetbury you will find the private residence of King Charles - Highgrove, where you can enjoy a tour of the gardens, be sure to book ahead and check the website for available dates. For the adventure seekers among you, a visit to the Cotswold Water Park is a must, with 150 lakes, alongside fantastic walking and cycling routes.

Further afield but easily reachable, are the pretty Cotswold villages of Bourton-on-the-Water, Kingham and Lower Slaughter. The cosmopolitan city of Bath is 30 miles away, with a choice of independent retailers and an impressive array of museums and galleries to choose from. Let's not forget the ancient Roman Spa - a must see visit or why not spoil yourself in the luxurious facilities at the modern Thermae Spa.
