The Experience

The view from your charming one-storey cottage is a knockout: rows of marching vines and then the rippling Cotswolds unravelling beyond, tempting you out for long walks. You’re on the Cotswold Way and it’s a 20-minute stroll to NT Crickley Hill for an Iron Age hillfort and panoramic views. If the weather is tempestuous, it’s just as nice to snuggle in front of the wood-burner, open a book from the shelf and cook a meal in the smart oak and glass kitchen.

The owners have thought of everything – tuck into your generous welcome pack, swing in the hammock, bubble in the hot tub or join a tour and tasting at the vineyard to sample their English bubbles, grown from vines on limestone terraces carved out by the Romans. On warm evenings it’ll be fun to fire up the barbecue and dine on the sunny patio.

Delightful Cotswold towns Stow-on-the-Wold, Bourton, Moreton and Cheltenham are close. If you have extra guests, book the annexe too.

  • The feeling of peace and tranquillity yet having so much to do on-site and off
  • Sampling a glass of English bubbles while you bubble in the hot tub
  • That the space works perfectly for couples, and just as well for families and groups when you book the annexe

Reviews

Wow! We have just returned from Dryhill Cottage and are so happy to have stumbled across a DOGGY HEAVEN gem! Our spaniel absolutely loved the grounds and vineyard walks, we felt so secure with the fenced garden - and Nigel & Lesley were so warm and welcoming. We enjoyed a wine tasting in the Roman Cellar - what an experience. I could not recommend Dryhill Cottage enough - we will be back!

Kate, Yorkshire

Dryhill Cottage is the most unique cottage experience I have had the pleasure of visiting. The place could not be any more peaceful, with beautiful panoramic views, calm isolated surroundings and beautiful walks. We had an amazing stay and cannot wait to visit again! The sparkling wine was AMAZING, we've ordered an extra case already!

Marjorie, Pembrokeshire

Dryhill Estate is an exceptional place with absolutely stunning views that you will not find anywhere else in the Cotswolds. The cottage is done up to the highest standard, and the hosts are delightful, making sure you have all you need. You can go for a hike on the neighbouring Crickley Hill and later relax, have a glass of bubbles in the jacuzzi, and simply enjoy the view.
