| Set in the Vale of Pewsey, this 'studio' cottage is hidden away
1/2 a mile along a 'no through' lane, which becomes a woodland track
and bridleway. Architect designed, it stands in the grounds of the
owner's own fascinating house, which has been converted from a
former church, and enjoys a peaceful outlook over the adjoining
bluebell woodland at the rear. Visitors have the use of the owner's
extensive landscaped grounds with a large wildlife pond and an
arbour, overlooking fields, with views to the Alton Barnes 'White
Horse' in the distance. There is immediate access onto footpaths
while trout fishing, tennis, golf and horse riding are all available
locally.
The Pewsey Vale is well known for its rural, undulating
landscape, which is rich in archaeological and prehistoric sites -
Silbury Hill, Avebury Stone Circle, Kennet Long Barrow and various
'White Horses' carved in chalk on the surrounding downland. The
nearby Kennet & Avon Canal offers narrow boat trips and the
ancient Savernake Forest is good for walks and picnics. Stonehenge
is 9 miles away and within an hour's driving distance are Bath,
Oxford, Salisbury and The Cotswolds. Pewsey 3 miles has local shops
and a main line train service to London, Paddington, while the
ancient market towns of Devizes, 9 miles, Marlborough, 10 miles, and
Hungerford, 17 miles are well known for their antique shops, good
pubs and restaurants.
The Old Church Studio offers very spacious, comfortable
accommodation at ground floor level, ideal for a couple, or 2 plus
1. The Studio is in pristine condition and its double height rooms
give it a light, airy feel. |
