Our guests frequently arrive in time for tea, served around 5.00pm, with delicious home made cake, either by the fire in the Winter, or on the terrace in Summer. This is when we plan the evening meal, or help the guests find somewhere to eat out, and we book it for them.

Don’t worry if stairs are a problem, we have installed a stair lift for you and your luggage.

To book, please choose and secure the room you prefer (see Bedrooms) and send me an email to (poppy@cotswolds-uplands.co.uk), or phone me on +44(0)7836 535538 (safest as it is always in my pocket if I am out or in the garden) and I will respond within the day.
