Near Cheltenham, South West England

Comfortable typical Cotswold cottage in small National Trust village of about 90 mixed houses. Very friendly neighbours. Excellent village shop, school, church and social club. Excellent walking straight from the front door.

We have three dogs but they would be coming on holiday with us. But we also have a very self sufficient cat who is rather wary of our dogs but would probably enjoy more attention than he tends to get. We also have an 80 something year old tortoise, and aviary of various birds as well as a dovecote with free flying doves And I almost forgot the modern game bantams which have a house and run in the garden. This sounds like rather a lot of dependents but they all really only need feeding etc first thing in the morning and feeding and shutting up in the evening leaving the rest of the day relatively free to explore this lovely area.
