“Thank you for another relaxing week spent at Winterbourne.”

The cottage was clean, comfortable and had everything we needed for an enjoyable stay in this lovely bit of Wiltshire. Phil the caretaker was so helpful - thank you!

“Winterbourne Cottage Wiltshire This is a very pretty cosy cottage (once it had warmed up!”

Was cold to begin). Quite spacious with large lounge, kitchen, bathroom and pretty garden. Given how nice the cottage is we felt it could have been rather better-appointed, and it does need a real deep clean although we appreciate it has been very booked-up. The village is charming with lots of lovely walks, although pitch-black at night as no lighting. Lots of lovely pubs in surrounding areas. Enjoyed going to Shaftesbury (Hovis advert), Longleat (with lions and tigers!), Salisbury, Stour Head with beautiful gardens and lake, Wardour Castle. Everyone very friendly: good Sunday lunch in welcoming Black Dog 10 minute walk, super-welcoming staff, particularly James the manager who opened up early especially for us! Great meal in Beckford Arms Fonthill Gifford. Warm welcome and massive portions at The Wyndham Ditton.

“Winterbourne cottage is a very pleasant two bedroom cottage in the quiet, pretty village of Chalmark.”

It is 10 minutes walk from the Black Dog pub which serves good food. The cottage is well furnished in a traditional style and is well equipped. The cottage does seem to be quite cold. When we arrived the temperature outside was 28 but the temperature inside was 15. There is underfloor electric central heating which is quite slow to warm up.

“Beautiful Cottage in a Beautiful.”

quiet village. Only minor negative comment would be that a few more basics would be appreciated like washing up liquid, kitchen roll, cooking oil, as we wouldn't normally take those on holiday with us. Still 10/10 tho & we'd stay here again on our next break in Wiltshire.

“Wonderful cottage .”

This is the third time in Winterbourne cottage. So clean and well equipped. A lot to see in the area. But we missed a visit to “The Black dog” . The pub is closed

“Lovely, comfortable house, out of this world!”

Spacious with a lovely garden. Food at bistro in Fonthill Bishop excellent, great views and walks from Win Green. Thank you for providing a great get-away-from-it-all place.

Guest's review on TripAdvisor

“We booked via "Hideaways" and the service was trouble-free.”

The property was surprisingly spacious for a two bedroomed cottage; it was cosy and well-equipped. The garden was pretty and well kept. The only surprise was that gas and electricity were not included in the price, but were calculated at the end of our stay.\ Chilmark is a very quiet village - no street lighting - but it does have a lovely pub with good food. There are lots of nice walks nearby and cycling is probably an attractive proposition. It's 12 miles to Salisbury which is definitely worth one or two visits. The nearest small town for shopping is Tisbury, 3 miles away via a very minor road. Tisbury also has a rail station and is on the line from Waterloo.

“Booking was easy and was very professionally handled, although I was a bit puzzled why it was not possible, even in off-season, to book from Sunday to Sunday - we had to leave on Saturday although no new guests were arriving that day.”

The amenities of the cottage were exactly as described and pictured on the website - best I've ever had in a self-catered cottage. However, the instructions on how to get the central heating running (found in a folder in the cottage) could have been clearer. The location in the small village of Chilmark is lovely, and it's easy to get to the nearby cities and sightseeing spots such as Salisbury and Stonehenge by car. The village pub is highly recommended as well!

“What a lovely home!”

We spent a wonderful week in this charming, well equipped house which is perfectly located between the glorious sights of Stonehenge, Salisbury and Bath. After sightseeing, we could return to this quiet oasis on the countryside. Amazing!

The property

Appealing in looks, Winterbourne Cottage is a charming and deceptively spacious place in which to enjoy a short break or longer holiday.

Set on the edge of the picturesque Wiltshire village of Chilmark, guests will enjoy spending time being part of this small rural community or a walk around its quiet, leafy lanes.

Perfectly positioned for visiting Stonehenge which is 25 minutes away.

Salisbury, 30 minutes & the stunning National Trust property Stourhead Gardens.

Once inside, you'll find a bright and airy Living Room with French windows opening out onto a delightful rear garden, a lovely place to sit and listen to the hum of the bees as you enjoy a quiet drink or two.

A mix of traditional and modern furnishings gives a sense of times gone by while at the same time ensuring guests have all the comforts they need to be able to relax.

A good choice for families or couples alike. Please note owner only accepts minimum of 3 night bookings.
