About this property

Luxury family friendly oak framed cottage with contemporary interior style

Our architect designed cottage will seduce you with its unfussy contemporary style, all wrapped up in an immense green oak aisle frame and fronted with an oversize porch.
Just the place to kick of your wellies/heels , before putting the kettle on the Aga or settling in front of the wood burning stove with a glass of wine. Windfall’s luxurious blend of old and new with sumptuous free standing baths and even its own baby suite, fully equipped for the youngest guest, is surrounded by its gated and completely safe cottage gardens.

Enjoy uninterrupted views South towards the Cotswold escarpment over our adjoining orchard, home to our ducks and hens — they may even lay you a few fresh eggs to enjoy at breakfast.
Designer built to ooze luxury; we think you’ll agree Windfall Cottage has buckets full of stunning good looks inside and out.

Our orchard is home to our hens and if you are lucky they will lay you an egg or two each day, as may our ducks., watch out for our 2 farm yard Geese Posh and Becks!!
surrounded by apples, plums, gages and the famous Worcester Black Pear for you to enjoy in season and a great fun place for the alfresco giant Indian fire pit .

Lovingly crafted using more than 12 tonnes of sustainably grown green oak, all set over a natural and locally quarried Cotswold stone plinth - The interior is a blend of high quality natural oak and limestone floors and contemporary luxuries in the form of under floor heating, decadent free-standing baths, powerful showers and a stunning bespoke oak kitchen with Aga.

Parents with babies or toddlers in tow will particularly like the king-size master bedroom with its vaulted ceiling set into the oak aisle frame, luxury en-suite bathroom with walk in wet room shower and romantic free standing bath for two and its very own adjoining “baby suite”.
All bedrooms are equally but distinctively furnished with gorgeous Egyptian cotton linen, fluffy towels, digital flat screen TV’s and each have their own fabulous en-suite facilities.
If you can drag yourself away from the relaxed social atmosphere of the farmhouse kitchen or from an evening spent barbecuing on the patio, you will find our stunning sitting room a perfect place to end the evening in front of the roaring log fire or with the French doors thrown open, watching the world in our orchard go by (ducks, hens, pheasants, partridges, rabbits and sometimes the odd deer or two).

Fabulous farmhouse kitchen with Aga and even its own wine fridge with a bottle or two chilling, awaiting your arrival. SKY sports and Wi-Fi for the grown-ups and all the children’s channels to keep the young ones happy.

Getaway Essentials include: Sky Plus TV with sports pack, Wi-Fi, Aga cooking or electric oven and ceramic hob, Wine fridge with a bottle or two ready chilled, Washing machine with drier, Dishwasher, Fridge & Freezer, Microwave Oven. Safe enclosed garden with great patio area, quality furniture .

For the Big Boys there is a Giant Professional gas BBQ, and outdoor patio woodburner for cosy outdoor evenings and the giant Indian fire pit in the orchard.
For the grown up Girls get Lush Beauty treatments exclusively available at Windfall (book in advance).
For the Little one's Baby/Toddler Equipment: Mothercare wooden cot, Travel cot, 2 High chairs, 2 Stair gates, baby monitor, self-inflating single mattress for toddlers or extra guest. Children’s plates/cutlery/cups/bowls Sterilizer, Trainer toiler seat, Potty, Changing mat, Bath mat, Baby step, Baby bath, Toy box with games & dressing up box, Wooden scooter, Books, Soft Toys, Children’s DVDs, Football table (for the grown up kids), Bats/balls and assorted outdoor toys for the little ones.

Windfall Cottage Beckford
Excellent location for exploring the surrounding Cotswolds. Three retired couples spent a week here and had a really good time. Would suggest the third bedroom is more suitable for two children than adults. TV/Cinema room appears to be a new addition and is a great space. Many thanks.

Lovely large country house
We spent Christmas week here with some extended family. The house was large and nicely laid out. Everyone enjoyed getting to grips with the Aga and how lovely and warm it was. The chickens, ducks & geese were a real highlight! The house was warm, fully equipped and the bedding very nice. The owners are very kind and left us some nice treats. The TV in the main lounge area is newer and larger than the one in the photos so that was a nice surprise. A suggestion would be to add a wifi booster (you can get them fairly cheaply and just plug them in), that way the wifi signal would be strong enough for the rest of the house and also the lounge where the new smart TV is, making it so people could just sign into their own Netflix accounts etc. Everyone really enjoyed the holiday and the time away. Many thanks for a great stay!

Clean and bright with some interesting features
Lovely property, six adults and a baby enjoyed their time at WINDFALL Cottage. The weather was superb which meant we could use the BBQ, in fact we ate outside everyday. The one drawback was the bedrooms became very hot with no way of cooling them down! The roll top baths looked super but taking a shower in one of them was very tricky as it was stand alone in the bedroom - ?water everywhere...... so we all shared the enclosed showers. The chickens and ducks, who lived in the orchard, visited the garden as soon as there was food about! The kitchen was well equipped and the baby/toddler equipment was excellent.

Superb!
Windfall Cottage was all we could hope for and more! Beautifully decorated throughout, the facilities are superb. We loved our stay and found it difficult to take ourselves away from this wonderfully comfortable cottage. The Aga is a delight to use, and the bathrooms were simply stunning. Keith and Teresa could not have been more helpful, and were at hand if you should ever need them. Well situated with pub and shop close by and delightful walking from the doorstep. Our only regret was that we couldn't stay longer, but now we have a reason to return. If you are reading this review and considering booking Windfall Cottage, all I can say "is book it". This is one of the best holiday homes we have ever stayed in.

About the host

Host profile image
Our names are Keith & Teresa - we have been holiday letting on a business basis for about 15 years and have a number of properties in the Cotswolds and overseas in addition to running our own construction products business.
Teresa is an interior designer and for fun Keith races historic racing cars!
We run our properties with pride and enjoy wowing our clients with our outstanding properties.

Why they chose this property

We live here in the beautiful North Cotswolds and have learned over many years that the best way to be sure of providing the very best presentation and quality holiday stay is to be close to hand.
The Cotswolds are stunning and typified with iconic yellow sandstone cottages - Windfall Cottage is a new build by us in 2008 in the grounds of our grade 2 listed property and constructed using green oak and local Cotswold stone to create a high quality luxury environment in natural materials.
We are just 2 hours from West London and close to motorway links yet set in a quiet village set below the Costwolds largest outlier with miles of walks in stunning scenery.

What makes this property unique

Windfall Cottage is without equal in the area. Most guests tell us the pictures understate the reality! Set in ites own secure safe garden and bordered by our orchard with hens and ducks to keep you amused.
The Aga makes the large farmhouse style kitchen a hit and the interiors are stylish - you will love it and if all that's not enough try chilling out in the evening with a glass of wine around our giant Indian fire pit and rustic log benches amongst the fruit trees in the orchard as the sun goes down in the West - you won't want to go home!
