Leasow House

Leasow House is a beautiful Cotswold Stone farmhouse dating back to the early 1600's, with panoramic views of open countryside.

The house has undergone extensive restoration to offer guests 21st century facilities, whilst still retaining its 16th century character.

Hosts Barbara and Gordon Meekings like visitors to think of themselves as 'guests in a traditional country house'.

Guests are given a front door key and are encouraged to come and go as they please.

There is a complimentary tray of sherry, and guests are also welcome to use the comfortable library as a sitting room.

Here you can relax and meet other guests, whilst perusing local guide books, walks and the local pub and restaurant menus, before deciding where to go.

The spacious bedrooms in the main house are as follows:

• Amber - large family room on top floor with queen-sized double bed, two single beds and en-suite shower
• Opal - top floor room with queen-sized double bed and en-suite shower

• Onyx - top floor room with double bed and en-suite shower
• Sapphire - first floor room with twin zip-link beds to make large king-sized bed or two single beds, and en-suite bathroom
• Amethyst - first floor room with twin zip-link beds to make large king-sized bed or two single beds, and en-suite bath/shower room

Outside, in a converted barn, there are another two rooms.

On the ground floor is the Bull Pen, a double or twin bedded room, which has been specially equipped to ensure that every comfort is available for disabled guests.

This room has full wheel chair access, chair level switches, remote on/off television and an en-suite bathroom.

Above the Bull Pen is the Hayloft, a luxury room with a queen-sized double bed and en-suite bathroom.

Please note that smoking is not allowed in bedrooms.

Barbara and Gordon will help you start your day by serving a full breakfast, taken in the attractive wooden-beamed dining room.

For other meals there are several fine restaurants and a good selection of country pubs in the vicinity.

Sample menus for many places are available and your hosts will be happy to make suggestions if asked.
