15 minutes from Bath this holiday cottage has a beautiful dry stone wall enclosed garden offering space to relax. The holiday cottage is a short stroll from Corsham High Street where local pubs serve meals with locally sourced produce where there are various quality independent shops, cafes and a selection of restaurants which also offer takeaway menus. We recommend the Flemish Weaver for a great meal. This historic town offers easy access for fabulous country walks, cycle touring and Harry Potter fans to visit Lacock, where both Harry Potter and many TV period dramas were filmed. There is a wonderful walk through an avenue of trees towards Corsham Court and if you turn right half way up there is a walk across a afield to a lovely big lake. Corsham Court is a stately home which dates back to 978 when the house was a summer palace for the Kings of Wessex. The property subsequently became part of the dowry of the Queens of England. A must visit great art works.

Guest comments
Had stayed with Annette and Adrian at A&As, but wanted to stay longer Annette suggested Poppey Cottage, It was the perfect place for a holiday in this area we drove to Stone Henge, Bath is very close, Lacock is divine and Corsham is beautiful. The walks are lovely. If you want an English stay Corsham is the perfect holiday.Liz and Phil USA.
I rented this cottage for my family I wanted to be near Bath but was surprised what else was around. We visited Lacock it was so quaint and my children loved seeing the Hall of Harry Potter. Corsham court is amazing and so were the walks around it. The food in The Flemish Weaver cooked by the lovley land lady Dawn was fabulous, we walked up most evenings when we did not cook. I loved the cottage there are not many left like this. E. Obiran Ireland.
We stayed at this beautiful holiday cottage it was really lovely loads of character. Very central for visits to Bath, Lacock, Stone henge, Bradford upon Avon. A great holiday cottage. Mrs T
