General Description of Property
*At the edge of Wellow, an unspoilt conservation village off main roads, in the Cotswold Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty. The two properties are on a side road with panoramic views to the south, over woodland and rolling hills. In a setting of perfect tranquillity, they are on opposite sides of a 3/4 acre garden, full of flowers, fruit trees and organic veggies, facing a burbling stream and mediaeval packhorse bridge. Each has its own independent garden space.
