Wiltshire cottages bring to mind scenes of rural tranquillity and this thatched property is no exception. Bowood House, one of England's finest stately homes, is just 6 miles from this cottage. Hidden away, deep within the rolling, unspoiled Wiltshire countryside the remains represent only a section of the original building, yet it is a perfectly proportioned Georgian house. The grounds, designed by 'Capability' Brown, stretch out from the Italian-style terraced garden and lead to the peaceful lake beyond. On the other side of the lake sits a Doric temple which continues the Grecian architecture theme, whilst near the lake is the romantic Cascade Waterfall.
