A sudeley castle cottage that sleeps 4 guests in 2 bedrooms

This apartment cottage is named in memory of King George III, who came to visit Sudeley Castle & Gardens on several occasions in the late 18th Century. Converted from the old forge on the Sudeley Estate, George III is ideally situated for exploring this fascinating part of the Cotswolds. Walking routes run from the door and you are a short distance from the village of Winchcombe and the delights of Sudeley Castle. This apartment cottage has open walls of Cotswold stone, sloped ceilings and original beams and views across the shared lawned garden to the treeline beyond. You will see walkers pass along the Windrush Way which runs behind the cottages.

This spacious, dog-friendly cottage has a large open plan living area across the ground floor. There is plenty of space to spread out and enjoy your own hobbies but also to gather for a meal or around the TV together. Upstairs two double bedrooms nestle beneath the eaves with a family shower room.

The terrace offers a section with seating just for George III and the shared lawn is perfect for dogs and the children. Enjoy this fantastic location, venturing further afield to the towns and villages of the Cotswolds as well as Sudeley Castle and the pubs and restaurants of Winchcombe on your doorstep.

Ground Floor
Living/Dining/Kitchen Area:
A bright, well-lit open plan area, furnished with country cottage fabrics, makes up the downstairs floor of George III. The sitting area has two comfortable sofas and an armchair so everybody has space to stretch out and enjoy a film or flick through a magazine. The fully-equipped kitchen overlooks the main courtyard and has a country-cottage feel, with fresh off-white coloured cabinets and wooden work surfaces. The kitchen has everything you will need for your stay including an oven/hob, fridge/freezer, microwave, dishwasher, washer/dryer toaster, kettle and Nespresso coffee machine. A dedicated dining area has a round table seating four.

First Floor
The staircase to the first floor splits in two with one side accessing bedroom one, and the second taking you to bedroom two and the family bathroom. You will pass an image of George III and it's worth pausing to admire the old construction methods on show in the beams.

Bedroom One:
This is the largest bedroom and is furnished with an oak frame standard double bed, bedside tables and individual overbed lights with reading and room lighting. This bedroom has a handy dressing area with a chest of drawers and a hanging cupboard - also the perfect place to set up a little one’s travel cot.

Bedroom Two:
The Old Forge’s impressive, but low, original oak beams are the centrepiece in bedroom two. Furnished with an oak frame standard double bed, bedside tables and individual overbed lights with reading and room lighting and a full-length mirror.

Family Shower Room:
Adjacent to bedroom two is the family shower room, with a large walk-in shower (with a fixed over-head rain shower and detachable handheld shower head) toilet, sink and heated towel rail.

Outside
Guests of George III share a lovely wooden decking area that looks out over a communal garden lawn and a footpath that leads to Sudeley Castle. Each apartment has its own seating area with table and chairs for 4 guests.

Excellent little bolt hole

Very quiet and peaceful location. We had the dog so having the Public Footpath alongside was excellent with the Castle fields. Winchcombe ideal for various Cotswold villages. Cottage was well appointed and comfortable.

Lovely cottage

This is our second stay at George III and it is always a pleasure. We attend an event at the castle so location is great, just a few minutes walk, and the same into the village. The cottage is very clean and well appointed for our long weekend. The welcome pack always great after long drive. Access and parking are very convenient. There is a lack of hanging space in bedrooms due to the eves, but this is really not an issue for long weekend.

George III is a truly lovely cottage in a fantastic location. Every consideration was given to make for a comfortable stay - and the welcome pack was most welcome! I wouldn’t hesitate to return or recommend!

Great stay in a historic location

It was lovely staying in a historic converted cottage with great facilities. A great bonus was free entry to Sudeley Castle. We had the added bonus of decking so we were able to eat outside when weather permitted.

Location perfect however…….!

The positives of the stay was that the location of the cottage is perfect, as somebody that lived in Winchcombe for 15 years, it is perfectly situated to see the best of winchcombe and the surrounding area. However the accommodation itself is extremely tired, it is in my view extremely expensive for what you get. It needs a lick of paint and refurbishing (particularly the bathroom) to do the location justice

Lovely cottage

We were attending an event at Sudeley castle , the cottage is really convenient to walk to both the castle and the town. It was very clean with all we needed for it long weekend. And the inside and outside seating great for chilling out after a long day. Have booked again for the same event next year.

Another pleasant stay

This was our third stay at Winchcombe and as before it was comfortable and relaxing in pleasant surroundings. The cottage is very well equipped plus a welcome tray and toiletries . Plenty of towels and tea towels provided. Conveniently sited for easy walk into Winchcombe which has a good choice of places to eat. We will definitely stay again. Although still comfortable the cottage does look a bit tired with chipped paintwork and a shower cubicle that needs a bit of TLC. A good ‘spring clean’ would go a long way to rectify this.

Winchcombe Escape

The Cottages are in a great location - just off the High Street, with plenty of small local shops, places to explore on foot and lots of lovely walks. We arrived in the dark the Sign for Sudeley Castle cottages would benefit from being lit - once on site the cottage was easy to find. It was light spacious and well equipped and very dog friendly. The tap in the bathroom sink dripped constantly and there appeared puddles with no explanation a couple of times on the bathroom floor - need to watch your head when opening and drawing blinds in bedroom windows! It was a lovely stay and would highly recommend to friends.

Ideal stay for wedding in Sudeley Castle

Stayed with wife, baby and in-laws. Clean throughout. Spacious downstairs. Well equipped kitchen. Low and angled ceilings in bedrooms only reason for 4/5 in comfort. Unfortunately, weather and busyness precluded us from enjoying the what looks to be newly decorated outside - but looks wonderful. Lovely touch by owners to leave some basic staples that were much appreciated on our arrival!

Mind your head!

George III at Sudeley Castle is a cosy, well appointed cottage. There is plenty of room for four adults downstairs both for relaxing and eating. The patio area is spacious although the gate doesn’t shut and our pooch did escape. Upstairs is a different matter. The supposedly double bedroom next to the bathroom is so small we couldn’t even get our suitcase in. With no wardrobe or hanging space at all we had to use the second bedroom which although more spacious had beams so low it is impossible to stand up. Mind your head - it got me several times!

Pretty Cotswold cottage in a superb location

I have stayed at Sudeley Castle Cottages approx 30 years ago and always wanted to return, loving the Cotswolds in general and history in particular. Winchcombe is such a pretty little town, with lots of pubs, shops, and restaurants and with the castle literally on your doorstep, it really was an easy choice to make. :-) We stayed in George 111 a small but perfectly formed little cottage. There were just the two of us, but being work colleagues ,we preferred the option of a bedroom each, but without a hotel price tag, and a home from home environment. It was perfect, with everything that you could possibly need for an enjoyable stay. Lovely and clean and cosy with added extras like tea, coffee, biscuits, mints, toiletries, and dog blankets. My friend was very impressed that a tea pot and toast rack were included. :-) Beds were super comfortable and there were plenty of toiletries and quality white fluffy towels. The table and chairs on the outside decking area was a nice touch and it was lovely and peaceful sitting there with a morning cuppa listening to the birds and watching the sheep strolling up to the fence. A public walkway was spitting distance from our front door that took you on to the Sudeley Castle estate within minutes, and the complimentary entry was a bonus. Walking into the village took minutes but there is a steep hill in Castle Street which could be problematic for those with mobility issues - don't forget your torch. No negatives at all, but i think a visitors' book would be a nice touch for visitors to give recommendations for pubs, restaurants and things to do. Also, with the downstairs being lino, floorcovering a nice rug or carpeted in the living room area would make it cosier. Would definitely revisit.

A great place to stay

The location of the house was perfect as a base for seeing the best of the Cotswolds. We really enjoyed our visit to the castle and our trips out to all of the "big ticket" Cotswold attractions. The house was perfect for our stay and everything was just right. Definitely somewhere we would look to stay next time we visit the area.

George 111 at Sudeley Castle

The Cottage was a bit tired and in need of a deep clean and decorating, apart from the kitchen which was nice and well equipped. Good welcome starter packs.

Wonderful time.

We really enjoyed our stay at George III cottage. It had all the conveniences one would require for a longer stay. The bedrooms could get warm, but opening the windows allowed enough air flow to sleep comfortably. Would definitely consider staying again in any future visit to the area.

Excellent way to explore the Cotswolds

To stay in one of the Sudeley Castle cottages is an experience, ideal to just chill out or see more of the area.

Charming cottage with direct access to all the best that the Cotswolds has to offer.

Delightful, well-appointed, sparklingly clean cottage in a lovely quiet location just a few minutes walk from the shops and pubs. Leave your car in the dedicated car park and forget about it for a few days as there are plenty of fantastic walks, long and short, directly from the doorstep. I highly recommend a stay here.

George III Cottage

We had a lovely short stay here as a family of 4 with our dog too. Plenty of space indoors with everything we needed to feel at home and enjoyed having a coffee or two overlooking the small garden and fields. Lots to do right on the doorstep from country walks, exploring the town and visiting Sudeley castle which is a 5 minute walk across the field. Can’t wait to come and stay again.

Our stay at Sudeley

Really enjoyed our three nights at George III. Lovely location, although We were pleased we were not any nearer to the building work going on, which must have been quite noisy for some of the other cottages. Our cottage was very well equipped for anything we needed, and being able to visit the Castle and gardens for free was a real bonus

Location of the cottage and access to a number of other Cotswolds town is perfect.

Have been staying at this particular cottage for a number of years with no issues, unfortunately on this particular occasion the response of the Sudley Castle customer service was not acceptable.

Good quality accommodation apart from ceiling height in bedrooms. Felt layout could have been improved to minimise “impact” of angled ceiling under the eaves.

Excellent overall; couple of basics missing

Really enjoyed it. Just a couple of things to improve, noticed mainly as we were there to accompany the party in another cottage. Archers I think. Surprised that no handrail on stairs in Archers. Only one shower mat so had to give them ours. The tumble dryer in our cottage just didn't work. on leaving we were told by member of cleaning team that we had to empty rubbish bins which seems a bit off (we had done the recyclilng). Other than that, all great. Thank you. Linda

Staying in the Beautiful Sudeley Estate

Beautiful setting amongst trees and location is a rural idyll .We stayed for the Giffords circus which was steps away on the estate and dined under the stars with them at Circus Sauce returning to sit outside on the terrace and under a canopy of stars … a sense of place indeed ✔️ A couple of notes - we were a mixed party and would have loved a manual coffee maker /cafetière for morning coffee and we all enjoy herbal teas/tisane so we’re surprised by the provision of just PG Tips !! However we brought our own but sadly could not make real coffee for our morning delight -so a more modern take on welcome pack might be a good tip for others too !!
