Granary Cottage Overview

Set in the grounds of West Charleton Grange, this perfectly formed cottage sleeps up to two adults in total comfort, and there is also space for a cot in the bedroom for those bringing a baby.

Walking into the cottage on the ground floor there is a sumptuous king size bedroom and en suite bathroom. Upstairs you'll find an open plan area with well-equipped kitchen, dining and living area. With exposed beams and sash windows overlooking the luscious grounds, you will feel instantly relaxed on your holiday.

In the grounds, the indoor swimming pool will be a wonderful place for morning lengths, or if you're bringing a little one, they will love their first splashes in the water. The tennis court (also with basketball hoop) plus the outdoor table tennis table will be well-loved by couples who are into their sports.

Explore the grounds (try to find the secret garden) and enjoy the comfortable outside seating areas for evening drinks, or eating al fresco. For larger gatherings, The Folly is a gorgeous entertaining space and we can help suggest private chefs for special occasions (please note that use of the Folly is an additional £150). Or simply prepare the popcorn, and enjoy a Hollywood blockbuster on the big screen inside.


1 x well-behaved dog very welcome

No smoking inside the cottage.

Allergies: dogs have been inside the cottage.

?Please note that due to the pool being powered by solar panels, the pool temperature can fluctuate

We had a brilliant time, tranquil location with great family-oriented onsite facilities. Responded to queries very quickly and effectively. Thank you!
Mr James

Beautiful cottage with excellent facilities in a great location. Although the living space was small it was well presented. Beautiful bedroom on the ground floor. Superb recreational facilities. I would add that the tennis court, in excellent condition, was not full size but nevertheless useful for practicing our short-game.

It is traditionally given on a mat on the floor, but you can also request to use a massage chair if mobility or space is an issue. Qigong is a moving meditation but it is also a great physical workout, opening the body and stretching the muscles to encourage greater stability and strength and increasing vitality and balance.  Tasha can also offer tips on nutrition, movements and herbs that can support your specific requirements.
