The Manor at Temple Guiting has been a privately owned house since the 15th century and is, for the first time being offered as a unique short term weekend or holiday let. The Manor is steeped in history and it has been reported as being “one of the finest of the smaller Tudor Manor Houses”.

The core of the house is believed to date back to the 14th century and may well have been associated with the Knights Templars.  It was thoroughly overhauled c.1580, when it apparently became a summer residence of the Bishops of Oxford.

According to the archives at Kew, the house was in the Beale family from 1469 to 1774 and the letter 'B' for Beale is depicted in one of the stained glass windows. The house is also mentioned in the Domesday book.

Temple Guiting is a quintessential Cotswolds village, quietly tucked away but with Stow-on-the-Wold, Broadway and Bourton-the-Water all in close proximity.   There are many local historical interests and Temple Guiting is said to be linked to the Knights Templar.

The accommodation consists of 3 double bedrooms  (inc one four poster) all with their own bathroom, plus an additional shower room.  All have top quality fittings, beautiful soft towels and bath robes.   There are two further bedrooms in the attic space comprising a double room and a twin room (one bathroom) and a TV area.    Ground floor comprises deluxe kitchen (including warming oven so great for catering), exceptionally large oven, dishwasher etc.  Utility room, one dining hall (not large but is classed as a hall), two drawing rooms, and a TV/snug room.   There are two staircases and a further one which is closed off but is a great original ornamental feature now.    There are two dovecots not currently used due to planning restraints but we do have some plans for one of the rooms which should not need any planning consent.

The gardens are extensive and designed by Jinny Blom who designed a garden with HRH Prince of Wales.  The gardens are set in 14.5 acres and include a lake and a very fine astro turfed tennis court.  There is also a table tennis area.

You are offered assistance with booking of theatres, horse riding, golf etc and the possible service of outside caterers/chef as required or requested. The aim is not to turn anyone away who would like additional facilities.
