An elegantly-styled cottage, ideal for a couple looking for a luxury break in the Cotswolds countryside, surrounded by beautiful gardens and with a host of facilities on-hand including a spa and an indoor swimming pool.
Carroll Cottage is one of twelve luxury holiday cottages set within the peaceful grounds of an historic country estate near Chipping Norton in the Cotswolds. The property was converted from the mill house that was part of the original manor house estate at the site, but its origins date back centuries. Nowadays, it’s perfect for two to enjoy spacious, elegant surroundings where typical English country house luxury meets a touch of Chateau style. With a cosy fireplace, a romantic bedroom and a delightful terrace that’s a real sun trap, you will soon feel relaxed. There’s also access to shared facilities in the grounds including stunning estate gardens, an indoor swimming pool, spa and gym, plus there are play areas for kids.

Exceptional Service

Our award-winning Guest Services team will not only help you find your dream holiday but will support you through every step of your stay.

The heart of the cottage is the 30ft-long drawing room/dining room that has a pitched ceiling and a Gothic-style stone fireplace. It’s an inviting space with lots of bookcases filled with interesting reads, while the decor is elegant with beautiful fabrics and objects including antique furniture and an ornate mirror. Behind the sofa and seating area, where there is also a Smart TV, there’s a dining table where you can enjoy dinner a deux.

If you have friends and family staying at other cottages, there’s the option to rearrange the drawing room and set it up for lunch or dinner for up to 30 guests.* It’s ideal if you’d like to mark a special occasion with a celebratory meal.

Off the drawing room is the kitchen, which features a Cotswold stone floor and is very well equipped with a range cooker with six burners and two ovens, an American-style fridge/freezer, a microwave and two dishwashers, as well as a washing machine/dryer.

Meanwhile, the large bedroom is very impressive with its pitched ceiling, the 6-ft bed framed by fabric drapes, pretty, French armoires and details like the antique mirror. In the en-suite bathroom, there’s a bath with a shower over, a basin and a WC.

From the bedroom, a door leads out to the secluded terrace that’s furnished with a table and chairs and surrounded by clematis, lavender, roses and shrubs. It’s the ideal spot to enjoy morning coffee, a lunchtime barbecue or evening drinks in peace.

You’ll also have access to the estate’s stunning gardens which feature a mix of formal and informal elements, the perfect place for a quiet stroll. There’s also access to shared facilities including an indoor swimming pool, spa and gym.

You will have access to a host of on-site leisure facilities that are shared by guests of all cottages.

Glorious gardens

Visit England has awarded the estate gardens top marks and it’s not hard to see why. A real labour of love, with a mix of formal and informal elements, highlights of the gardens include topiary, box hedges, lawns, an old walled garden, gazebos, orchards, statues, a wisteria tunnel, vast borders, an arched column of yews and a stream… the list goes on. This is English country garden style at its very best.

Swimming pool, spa and gym

The indoor, heated swimming pool is great for a refreshing dip and is edged with poolside loungers so you can relax afterwards. Doors open onto an Italian-style garden and a sun terrace with more loungers, which is a blissful spot to enjoy a drink or lunch on a summer’s day. Children under 16 years old must be accompanied by an adult, while floats and swim nappies are available for little ones. Why not make it a full day of indulgence and book a facial or a massage with an expert therapist? The spa treatment rooms here are calming spaces filled with soothing scents and relaxing music.

However, if you’re keen to keep up with your fitness routine, head to the gym which is equipped with a running machine, power plate, exercise balls, rowing machine, cross trainer, free weights and an exercise bike.

Children’s facilities

Children will love it here. There are three playgrounds, a two-storey Wendy house, bikes and a play cabin with dressing up clothes, art materials, toys and even child-sized croquet sets. Meanwhile, teenagers will like the games room which features a pool table, table tennis and table football, as well as a 75-inch TV with a PS4 and an Xbox 360. It’s the perfect place for a friendly competition with siblings, parents or new friends.

Complimentary Welcome Basket: Upon arrival, you will get two bottles of champagne, one large loaf of bread, two pints of milk, one large butter, half a dozen eggs, one large cake, six sausages, 12 rashers of bacon, one wheel of cheese, a selection of preserves and cereals and bottled water.
Spa Treatments: Two treatment rooms offering a selection of facials, massage and reflexology are bookable via the Estate office.
Bicycle Hire: bicycles are available to rent for the day, by the main office. Standard bicycles are free of charge and E-bikes are £30 per bike, per day.
EV Charging: There is an electric car charging point available to use on-site and it is free of charge. Please enquire at the Estate office.

A member of staff from the cottage estate will greet you on arrival and show you to your cottage. The estate grounds and gardens, the swimming pool, spa area, gym and play areas are shared facilities available to guests of all the cottages at the site.

Welcome hampers provided to guests include essentials and treats mostly sourced from neighbouring farms and local suppliers. Meanwhile, the all-natural toiletries supplied for you to use during your stay are from 100 Acres that donates a percentage of its profits to a rewilding Britain scheme. In addition, the estate gardens are a haven for wildlife. Shrubs and flowers have been planted to attract bees and butterflies, while flowers from the cutting garden are used in pretty arrangements in the cottages to welcome guests.
