Newport Meadows is a beautifully converted Cotswold barn, nestled on a working farm near the picturesque village of Chedworth. This charming home perfectly combines rustic character with modern comfort, creating a peaceful retreat ideal for families or friends seeking a countryside escape.
Upon entering, you are welcomed into a bright lobby leading to the dual-aspect living room. Featuring an exposed Cotswold stone wall and a cosy wood-burning stove, this inviting space offers a two-seater sofa, four armchairs, and a Smart TV. The room is perfect for relaxing with a book or enjoying board games by the fire.
Adjacent, the open-plan kitchen and dining area is filled with natural light, overlooking fruit trees on the drive. The contemporary kitchen is well-equipped with a double electric oven, induction hob, fridge/freezer, dishwasher, microwave, and coffee facilities. A wooden dining table for four provides an intimate setting for meals or socialising. Complementing the kitchen is a separate utility room, fitted with a washing machine and tumble dryer, providing practical additional storage and keeping day-to-day laundry neatly out of sight.
A peaceful study with a desk and chair overlooks the side garden, ideal for quiet reflection or remote working.
Upstairs, the cottage offers two bedrooms. The master bedroom features a double bed, and a built-in wardrobe, all complemented by far-reaching rural views. The second bedroom is cosy and restful, with two single beds, and a wardrobe. The family bathroom is flooded with natural light and includes a bath with handheld shower, walk-in shower, toilet, wash basin, and heated towel rail, with an additional cloakroom for convenience.
Outside, the garden is a true haven. A paved patio with seating for four and a summer charcoal barbecue overlooks lawns bordered by shrubs and trees, with stunning views over grazing farmland. The front of the property features a walled kitchen garden and greenhouse, maintained by the owner. Ample off-street parking is available on the gravel driveway.
Chedworth is a quintessential Cotswold village in Gloucestershire, set in a peaceful valley a few miles north of Cirencester, with honey-coloured stone houses, a welcoming local pub and a strong community feel. The historic Church of St Andrew dates back to the 12th century, adding to the village’s timeless atmosphere. Surrounded by the Cotswolds AONB, the landscape is ideal for countryside walks, rural cycling and spotting local wildlife.
The star attraction is Chedworth Roman Villa, one of Britain’s largest Roman villa sites, where you can explore impressive mosaics, bathhouses, underfloor heating systems and a museum of artefacts that reveal life in Roman Britain. Nearby is the Water Shrine (Nymphaeum), an ancient sacred spring within the villa grounds. For nature lovers, Chedworth Nature Reserve offers woodland walks and a peaceful setting along an old railway line.
Within easy reach are charming attractions like Cerney House Gardens, a beautiful historic garden near North Cerney, and family-friendly spots in the wider Cotswolds such as The Model Village and Birdland Park & Gardens in Bourton-on-the-Water. Other notable places not far away include Sudeley Castle with its gardens and history, tranquil Painswick Rococo Garden, or ancient sites like Nympsfield Long Barrow along the Cotswold Way.
Chedworth is accessible by car via the A429 and connected by local bus services to nearby towns. The nearest train stations are at Kemble or Moreton-in-Marsh, making driving the most convenient way to visit and explore the village and surrounding countryside.
