About this cottage rental

Horsefair Cottage is a glorious example of a luxury Cotswold cottage, nestled within a charming terrace of Cotswold stone homes. With its elegant sash windows, this period cottage exudes all the character and charm you would expect from a quintessential Malmesbury cottage.

As you step inside, prepare to be surprised by the spaciousness that awaits. The cottage is thoughtfully designed to offer an airy, comfortable retreat, with two characterful double bedrooms. One of these, a beautiful attic room, offers breathtaking views toward the iconic Malmesbury Abbey, providing a serene setting to unwind after a day exploring. The cosy sitting room, with its large wood burner, invites you to sink into its warmth, creating the perfect spot for relaxing evenings. The heart of the home lies in the kitchen-dining area, a sun-drenched space that benefits from an impressive atrium ceiling, flooding the room with natural light. Every detail has been carefully considered to blend timeless character with contemporary convenience, making it the ideal holiday home for those who appreciate the finer things in life.

Horsefair Cottage is also dog friendly, ensuring that your four-legged companions can share in the joy of this remarkable cottage. For outdoor lovers, a private courtyard area provides a perfect retreat. The garden is adorned with pretty climbing rose trees, and the addition of a BBQ and rattan dining suite make this a wonderful space for alfresco dining or simply soaking in the Cotswold air.

Had a wonderful stay at Horsefair Cottage. The cottage is very homely, well equipped and clean. Sitting beside the log burner was wonderful. The location was great for walking into Malmesbury high street past the Abbey and The Old Bell Hotel, can highly recommend dining at Abbey Row restaurant there. Even able to get the parking space directly outside the cottage on the second day which was a bonus, and there’s long stay car park just around the corner. Only downside was steep staircase, however to be expected in a character cottage of this age.
