....a beautiful country house set within stunning grounds

Originally conceived in the 14th century as a medieval manor, Dauntsey Manor was extensively remodelled in the 18th century into the beautifully proportioned house, with the elegant Georgian elevations, that you see today. Dauntsey Park House is well situated between the historic city of Bath and Cirencester and within easy reach of the pretty Cotswold towns of Tetbury and Malmesbury. 

 
Giovanni and Emma moved into the house with their four children Cosimo, Alberto, Francesco and Cecilia in 2007. Having been sold five times since 1987, major renovations were needed to make the house suitable for a young family and to create rooms for guests and functions. Lengthy and extensive works to the house itself were finally completed in 2010, as was the installation of a water turbine to make the house carbon neutral. Further plans for winter 2011/2012 include the creation of a knot garden outside the church entrance.

Accommodation

There are two stylish and spacious bedrooms available for bed and breakfast use. As both rooms are west-facing with two windows each, they are filled with evening light and have striking views out over the river and park beyond.

The large double room has an ensuite bathroom with separate shower and a super king-size Italian bed complete with Egyptian cotton sheets. There is also a comfortable sofa to relax on.

The elegant twin bedroom, with generously sized single beds, is also ensuite. The bathroom has a traditional roll top bath and boasts an original thunder box loo! Both rooms have wifi and their own TV. For larger parties, further bedrooms are available.

BREAKFAST

At Dauntsey, generous continental breakfasts are served during the week in school term times, whilst cooked breakfasts are on offer at weekends and over the school holidays. All our ingredients are sourced locally where possible, including ‘Malmesbury King’ champion sausages and bacon from Malmesbury’s award winning butcher, Thomas of Malmesbury. Breakfast is served in the dining room and in the summer months guests are also given access to the drawing room.

We are delighted to be part of Alastair Sawday's Special Places.

TESTIMONIALS

“.... Initially, I thought I’d arrived at the wrong address, access through a large stone arch up a gravel drive leads to a very grand country house. To refer to this as a B&B massively undersells it, this is a B&B like no other; a beautiful country house set within stunning grounds in the heart of the Cotswolds. The rooms are huge and wonderfully dressed, utilising the multitude of period features. From the warm welcome by Emma on our arrival, to the comfortable bed and amazing breakfast the following day, everything about our stay was perfect. I would definitely stay again and anyone looking to stay in this part of the country need look no further than Dauntsey Park House; this is a wonderful country retreat that won’t disappoint.”
Richard Pearce, London.

Bruern Cottages in the Heart of the Cotswolds (Sleeping 2 to 10)

History

The 12 cottages were converted from the Victorian stable yard and outbuildings of Bruern Abbey, a handsome 18th century Baroque country house. Bruern Abbey was bought in 1945 by the late Michael Astor, a writer and Member of Parliament. Judy Astor, Michael's widow, began converting the cottages in 1992, bringing to the task thoughtfulness, imagination and a passion for design. In the interiors, in the gardens and in the very way Bruern is run, nothing has been done without the guest’s experience and point of view in mind.

The properties

Bruern Holiday Cottages have been national winner of the English Tourism Council's Excellence in England Gold and Silver Awards for Self-Catering Holidays. They are luxurious, stylish and well equipped, with open fires and four poster beds as well as state-of-the-art bathrooms and kitchens. They sleep two to ten. The cottage all have private enclosed terraces and many have their own secluded gardens.
In the beautifully landscaped communal gardens and grounds, facilities include tennis, croquet, swimming, gym and the Stables Spa offering all sorts of treatments and pampering , including massages, facials, manicures and pedicures. Our spa has been featured on Tatler’s 101 Best Spas in the world.
There is also a special play area for children with a mini-playground, two-storey Wendy house and a heated play cabin with dressing up clothes, toys, art materials and fantastic retro pedal cars and tractors.

Location

Bruern's central location makes it an excellent base for exploring The Cotswolds - Oxford is half an hour away, Stratford-upon-Avon and the Shakespeare National Theatre under an hour, and Cheltenham (racing and the annual Literary Festival) much the same. There are lovely wildlife walks in the neighbouring Nature Reserve at Foxholes and along the Oxfordshire Way, which runs through Bruern.

Bruern is also easy to get to by both train and car - Central London is just an hour and a half by either, and there are direct trains from there to Kingham station which is just 5 minutes drive away. It is also about the same distance from Birmingham and Bristol.

Tariff

Price depends on season and cottage - range from £798 - £6,711 per week.
