PROPERTY DETAILS:

Blockley is a delightful village situated amongst the rolling hills of the North Cotswolds, between Chipping Campden and Moreton in Marsh in a designated Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty. It is only 3 miles from Moreton in Marsh which is on the main railway line from London Paddington. Buses regularly stop in the village on their way from Moreton to Chipping Campden, Broadway, Stratford upon Avon and beyond. There is a Post Office /General Store also selling newspapers and freshly baked bread and two pubs serving traditional and “restaurant” meals.

Silk Cottage was built in the 19th century and is Grade II Listed. Set in the grounds of the Old Silk Mill, it is neatly tucked away at the end of the row of cottages dating back to the 1800’s. The cottage offers a tranquil environment with the sound of water in the background coming from the original mill stream.

Silk cottage has been renovated to the highest standard and has kept many of the original features. The use of colour and natural light has created a balance to provide a cottage ideal for a relaxing and peaceful holiday. There is full gas central heating.

Entrance to the property is through a small cottage garden with patio area consisting of a bistro table and chairs. The front door leads into the kitchen.
