Blackwell in the Cotswolds
The Granary is situated in the north of the Cotswolds with easy access to walks in every direction and we are located directly on the Centenary Way walk. With views to Cotswold hills at Ilmington, it is in an area of outstanding beauty, yet within reach of local amenities.
Whilst no longer a working farm we do keep pedigree sheep in the adjoining field. For this reason please contact us if you wish to bring a dog. Please note also that this is a no-smoking cottage, although inveterate smokers will find relief in the paddock where the sheep are uncomplaining.
The village of Armscote is about 15 minutes walk away and has a wonderful local pub, The Fox & Goose, with open fires and great food. Stratford-upon-Avon is eight miles away and there are several National Trust properties within a few miles. Shipston-on-Stour, a delightful market town with a wide range of independent shops, and Ilmington, a lovely Cotswold village with the famous Howard Arms pub with great food and atmosphere, are both 2-3 miles away. Chipping Camden, described historically as having Britain's most beautiful village street, is eight miles away.
For local weather Blackwell has its own weather station. Click to see the Blackwell weather report.
