Description - 2 Alberta Cottages is a quaint home and one of Brimscombe's best kept secrets. Hidden away in a magical setting, this 2 bed cottage offers a haven of tranquillity. Character features run throughout with a plethora of aged beams, exposed stone, fireplace and stunning views across the valley.
The accommodation is arranged over three floors with, on the ground floor, an inviting Kitchen/Breakfast Room with parquet wood flooring, an open fireplace and double doors out onto the garden. There is also a modern shower room and WC on this level. A cosy Sitting Room is located on the first floor to make the most of the uninterrupted views. The second bedroom is also located on this floor. The main bedroom on the top floor is open plan with an abundance of light.
Outside is a surprisingly sized garden on two levels. The first laid to lawn and the second a paved seating area with summer house. In addition is a useful outbuilding with ground floor store room and WC and attic room above accessed via ladder which could make a wonderful home office.

Location - Swellshill is a hidden gem of a location. Nestled in the Stroud valley with lovely views in all directions, only the well-informed would know this tucked away little lane near the village of Brimscombe, even exists. Within walking distance of Rodborough, Minchinhampton and Bownham Commons, Swellshill is surrounded by fabulous countryside with wonderful walks in all directions and the popular Winstones ice cream factory and shop within a ten minute walk. Nearby Minchinhampton has a good range of amenities with a popular pub, post office and good range of shops and Brimscombe itself is within walking distance and plays host to the Ship Inn and popular Stroud Brewery. Brimscombe Port is also in the early stages of re-development and promises an exciting array of facilities and housing with the opening up of the canal. Stroud is the nearest town and has several major supermarkets, as well as a cinema, sports facilities and mainline station. One of the key draws to the area is the excellent choice of schools with several sought after grammar schools in Stroud, Gloucester and Cheltenham.
The area is well connected for transport links with trains into London Paddington from Stroud Station, circa 90 mins and the M5 and M4 both easily accessible.

Directions - From our Minchinhampton office head along the High Steet past the market square to the top of Butt Street. Turn left onto the Cirencester Road passing out across Minchinhampton Common in the direction of Stroud. After approximately 2 miles, take the right hand turn towards Winstones Ice Cream, shortly after The Bear of Rodborough. Continue along the lane and take the second left hand fork. Head down the hill and at the crossroads turn left onto Swellshill when Alberta Cottages can then be found approximately 100 meters on your right.
