One of our cottages in Wiltshire is probably our most romantic cottages in the Cotswolds. The Carthouse is situated just a mile outside Malmesbury, an ancient market town in the south Cotwolds. As England's oldest borough, situated on a hill circled by the River Avon, it is often called the 'Queen of Hilltop Towns'. Its skyline is dominated by the imposing Norman Abbey where the Abbey Gardens feature planting ranging from daffodils, crocus, tulips and iris in spring through the county's largest private collection of roses, double herbaceous borders that rival Monet's, to fabulous autumn colour from specimen trees and shrubs spread between formal gardens dotted with fish ponds and a wilder section that cascades into a valley cut through by a tributary of the River Avon. In the town there is a fine 15th century market cross, narrow medieval streets and quaint alleyways.
