The Organic Cotswolds Cowshed

The Organic Cotswolds Cowshed Set in the heart of The Cotswolds, one of the most beautiful areas in the UK, we are offering the most organic and toxic free environment that we can for our guests which may be important to you if you are allergic or intolerant to such things as added fragrance to laundry soap or the chemicals used in non-bio cleaning chemicals and sprays. I also have a shepherds hut on the property that sleeps two. See my other listing 1 DOG welcome. No other pets The space Our cowshed is an idyllic place off the beaten track to get some peace and quiet but not too far from pubs, restaurant shops. It is separate from the house by about 50'/15metres. The airbnb has its own outdoor garden area, right outside the front door, with an outside dining table and four chairs plus two out door arm chairs , a small sofa and coffee table. Close to the cowshed on my neighbour's side is a big hay barn, so no BBQ in the outside space unfortunately - but you are welcome to BBQ in the orchard. We are right next to a working farm that has horses and the farmer's son operates his road sweeping trucks from it, but there are large amounts of time when there is no one around. Buckholt Rd, which we are are quite well set back from, is not a busy road at all - no constant traffic noise. It's also a very beautiful road. Mostly it feels peaceful here - we feel lucky to live here. There is a footpath that goes through our property (not close to the cowshed though) that leads directly to the famous Cotswolds Way, the 102-mile long-distance footpath that attracts a lot of tourists from all over the world every year. So you can leave the cowshed and walk straight to the Cotswold Way without going near a road. A car is an ideal way to get there. Buses are sparse and nearest bus stop is about half a mile away. Taxis are available but pricey and Uber doesn't operate much here. Mobile phone coverage is not great here but if you have wifi calling you'll be fine. We have pretty great fibre optic internet service here. In the cowshed it is 75mbps up and down. Guest access We have plenty of parking in the farmyard here plus an electric gate for extra security. Other things to note I ONLY ALLOW DOGS IN THE COWSHED….sorry. I charge £5/night extra for the dog. This can't be paid for at the time of booking for some reason. I have to submit a request for payment through airbnb separately. Great dog walking around here without having to drive anywhere - but it can be (and more often than not, unless there’s a drought!) over muddy. There is a hose in the Airbnb garden to wash your dog off. Please bring towels and blankets/basket/bed/crate to ensure the wooden floors are protected from a wet/damp dog. And please keep the dogs off the furniture/bed. Boardgames - we so far have Monopoly, Pass The Pigs, Dobble, Ludo, Yahtzee, Junior Pictionary, Touring England, Scattergories, Chess, Backgammon and Scrabble. Plus playing cards. Watch this space!
