Butterrow Gate, Stroud
Butterrow Gate is an eye-catching property which sleeps two guests, in one lovely bedroom, with a ground floor bathroom. This unique Grade II listed property was constructed in 1825 as the toll house to service the turnpike road linking Stroud to Cirencester, and is one of the few toll houses in the UK to still have the original wooden toll charges board fixed to the front of the building. An early example of Gothic architectural revival built from Cotswold stone, Butterrow Gate retains many character features including stone mullion windows, exposed Cotswold stone walls, flagstone flooring and a Cotswold stone fireplace with a wood burning stove. Modern facilities such as wireless internet access, a Freesat TV with DVD player, and underfloor heating complement the traditional features, and there is an elevated patio garden with stunning views, and free on-street parking is readily available. Butterrow Gate is located on the outskirts of the bustling market town of Stroud, famed for its independent shops, galleries and cafes. Stroud hosts an award-winning Farmers' Market every Saturday, and there is an organic farm shop just a short drive from the property. The town has a wide range of restaurants and pubs, the closest to Butterrow Gate being The Prince Albert Inn which is dog friendly and often has live music nights. Surrounded by the Cotswolds Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty, there are many lovely cycle routes and walks on its doorstep, including those through Rodborough Common which has spectacular views across Woodchester Valley and to the River Seven on a clear day. The River Frome flows through Stroud itself and has a pleasant tow path which follows the course of the river, passing by the Stroud Brewery, just a half hour stroll from the property. Stroud is well placed for visiting the many historic towns of the South Cotswolds, including Painswick, Nailsworth, Minchinhampton and Cirencester. Further afield destinations such as Bath, Cheltenham and Oxford are within easy reach for day trips.
