Merryfields
Managed by Classic Cottages
Merryfields is the ideal holiday getaway for both families and friends and offers a relaxing country stay in the tranquil Wiltshire countryside. The perfect base for enjoying a visit to the Cotswolds and the popular spa town of Bath which is a just a short drive away.
This inviting family home, which was designed by a musician who was once a drummer for Ozzy Ozbourne, has four bedrooms, one en suite, and a family bathroom. The magnificent folding glass doors on the ground floor allow you to enjoy the outside whilst keeping your indoor comforts and a wonderful space for creating holiday memories.
As you enter the grand pillared doorway you are greeted by a wonderfully eccentric lobby complete with an ornate decorative faux door and impressive Chopper (for decorative purposes only). A hallway leads to a wonderfully social kitchen and dining-area, complete with breakfast-bar and round dining-table…perfect for entertaining larger groups. In the summer months why not open up the sliding glass doors and watch the sun go down as you enjoy your favourite meal.
For those looking to keep their fitness levels up during their stay, a small gym area (used at guests' own risk) is located off the hallway and is equipped with exercise bike and free weights, or the ideal place for a spot of yoga and calm.
For those budding musicians, why not pay a visit to the Music room adjacent to the gym, where you can practice those drumming techniques, or you may prefer to " tickle the ivories",or perhaps you prefer to strum the guitar.
The gym room takes you to an expansive sitting-room which features a wood-burner, under-floor heating and a Smart 65" TV. There is even a full-size table-tennis table to keep you entertained, you really will have all the ingredients for the ultimate, cosy night in. Arguably the main feature of the house is the most spectacular views from the panoramic sliding doors where you can step outside onto the grass, offering a charming dining/seating area inviting you to unwind under the stars. This part of the garden offers a tranquil retreat, It's the perfect spot to enjoy your morning coffee or an evening conversation.
Upstairs there is a substantial family bathroom fitted with shower and separate bath. All four bedrooms are spacious and have three comfortable king-size beds, with one twin bedroom comprising of a double and a single bed, with the principal bedroom having its own en suite shower-room.
To maintain the luxurious standards, we respectfully ask that dogs are kept downstairs.
The south-facing garden features a blend of patio and lawn, with a gas barbecue (available on request) and multiple outdoor seating areas so you can enjoy the warmer evenings al fresco style, while taking in the breathtaking views overlooking acres of the rolling hills and the valleys of Wiltshire and Somerset.
Located at the bottom of the garden is a private furnished decking area where you can unwind while absorbing the incredible views in peace and tranquility.
For the benefit of the neighbours, please be mindful to keep noise outside to a minimum during the later hours.

Extremely spacious and beautifully equipped accommodation set in pretty village, secure off-road parking, owner available if any issue were to arise. Hope to return in better weather to fully appreciate the large garden!
Mrs Mottern
We thoroughly enjoyed our stay at Merryfields. The house and grounds were absolutely stunning, and John was such a nice host! We enjoyed relaxing at the house, as well as exploring Colerne and surrounding areas. We highly recommend this beautiful place, and we can’t wait to plan our next trip back to visit!
Mrs Peverett
Amazing property with stunning views!
Mr O’Keeffe
I booked this cottage for my mum's 60th birthday and in our party of 8, there were 3 generations of family, ranging from 60+ down to 3 years old. I can honestly say this place has something for everyone. Let's start with the views and the grounds which are both unobstructed and stunning. The scenery goes for miles and the garden has patio areas, pretty gardens and even an area for the kids to play football (with goalposts included). In side has everything you need and more, with large bedrooms, well equipped kitchen, large lounge (with table tennis), a small gym area and even a music room with drums, guitar and piano. From the property you have a cast array of gorgeous walks, the small village of Colerne has a couple of local shops and two village pubs, which were both really nice. You are also nestled between Bath and Chippenham if you need a bit more to do but honestly, if you're thinking of hiring a place and have looked at Merryfields but cannot decide, DO IT!! It's amazing.
Big thank you to the two lovely owners, John & Suzanne (I hope i have remembered that correctly) who provided all the info we needed for a wonderful stay.
