About the location
CHIPPING CAMPDEN
Moreton-in-Marsh 8 miles; Stratford-upon-Avon 12 miles
This market town defines the saying "good things come in small packages" as it proves itself to be a wonderful place for tourists to stay. Chipping Campden sits in the northern part of the Cotswolds and boasts many historical buildings from St. James' church where the Chipping Camden Music Festival is held every year, to the early 17th century market hall upon which the town prides itself. Not only does the town have a rich history but much more, the high street is laced with charming Cotswold stone buildings with a range of shops and pubs. Nearby there are several beautiful, formal gardens for you to wander through. Chipping Campden has held its own 'Olimpick Games' since the early 1600s including peculiar sports such as 'shin-kicking', most certainly worth lining your holiday up with to experience something so unique. For a dose of famous history, head to the birthplace of William Shakespeare in Stratford-upon-Avon just 12 short miles away, it offers some charming little buildings, bookshops, theatres and museums.
Note: For the comfort of future guests, we ask that dogs stay off the furniture and that no trace of a dog remains after your departure.
Note: Logs for the woodburning stove are provided under a fair usage policy and there is a box for contributions towards the logs used.
Note: Perry Cottage is a single-storey cottage and once inside there are no steps to access the rooms, however there are two steps to the front door, which could pose difficulty to guests with limited mobility.
