3 Bedroom House in Ampney Crucis, Cirencester

Waterton Stables is an old house, full of character, having been the stable block/groom's cottage for the large manor house nearby, now converted into two dwellings - the 'cottage' for guests which is attached to the 'stables' end of the house where the owners live full-time. The interior is well furnished and comfortable, and has a unique character. Please note, it is not a 'modern' space, this would not reflect it's age or character, but we hope the photos provide an adequate reflection of this.
It is approached by a long drive, with fields on either side, leading to a large courtyard with ample space for parking.
Upstairs, the attached guest cottage has 1 double bedroom, 1 twin and a single bedroom. There is also a bathroom with shower and bath, and a separate wc. Downstairs is an entrance hall, sitting room with large flat screen TV, a dining area and kitchen overlooking the garden. There is also a utility room with washer, dryer, wc and shower.
Outside there are table and chairs, and 2 loungers for guests' use. There is also a swimming pool which can only be used at the owner's discretion; it is very close to the owner's end of the house, so we ask that guests use it for a short time, once or twice a day depending on weather and other use.
The local pub is a 5 minute walk away, and is perfect for an evening meal if you prefer to walk rather than drive. There are many wonderful pubs nearby, many with excellent food, and gardens with view for lovely summer suppers or cosy interiors with roaring fires. There are also many beautiful towns, villages and gardens to visit, and South Cerney, only 2 miles away, is great for swims, boating, etc.. It's a wonderful area for a break.
