DIRECTIONSFrom Burford follow the A40 towards Cheltenham and take

the left hand turn after approximately 1 mile on the B4425

signposted Cirencester. From Cirencester follow the B4425

signposted to Burford. Having exited Bibury continue for

approximately 3 miles.

On reaching the village of Aldsworth take the turning into

the centre of the village. With the war memorial on your

right continue straight and follow the road with No HGV

sign. Follow the road as it bends to the left and then take the

second right hand turn onto a no through lane where Taylers

Farmhouse will be seen on the right.

DESCRIPTIONTaylers Farmhouse is a wonderfully spacious Grade II Listed

village property, offering versatile family accommodation over

three floors. A handsome building, it offers well proportioned,

bright rooms which afford a good deal of flexibility. In

addition, there are extensive barns and outbuildings, in

excellent condition, which lend themselves to a variety of

uses. Of particular interest is the unusual and fascinating

barrelled underground chamber. The gardens, to the front

and rear of the property, are both mature and private.

SITUATION AND LOCATIONAldsworth is an attractive unspoilt Cotswold village,

which is situated between the historic market towns

of Burford and Cirencester both offering excellent

shopping facilities including banks, supermarkets,

schools and leisure facilities. The larger centres of

Oxford and Cheltenham offer more comprehensive

leisure, cultural and shopping facilities. The village

itself benefits from an excellent village pub and a

visiting post office. The Church, St Bartholomew, is

a fine example of late Norman architecture. It is set

slightly away from the centre of the village. Most of

the houses in Aldsworth are built of Cotswold stone,

dating from the 18th & 19th Century, when Bibury

Racecourse was in use.

The road and rail communications are excellent

with mainline railway stations at Oxford Parkway

(24 miles), Charlbury (15 miles), Kemble (14 miles)

and Swindon (20 miles) providing frequent and

regular commuter services to London (Paddington/

Marylebone). The A40 (about 4 miles north) provides

good access to Oxford and the M40 to London and

Birmingham. London Heathrow, Birmingham and

Bristol airports are all within an hour and a half.

AMENITIESThe Cotswolds are renowned for country

pursuits and there are many enjoyable walks

in the area together with an extensive network

of footpaths and bridleways with excellent

riding. Rugby and Hockey Clubs for all ages

in Stow-on-the-Wold, Fairford, Cirencester

and Bourton-on-the-Water. Hunting is with the

Heythrop and VWH and polo played regularly

at Cirencester Park. Golf courses are found at

Burford and Cirencester; racing at Cheltenham

and Stratford-upon-Avon; with theatres at

Oxford and Cheltenham. A variety of water

sports are available at the Cotswold Water Park

near South Cerney.

There is a good choice of primary schools

around Aldsworth at Northleach, Sherborne

and Bibury. The area is noted for both its

private and state schools. These include

Hatherop Castle which is just a short drive from

the house, Rendcomb College, The Cotswold

School, Farmor’s, St Hugh’s, Beaudesert

Park, Westonbirt, Cheltenham College and

Cheltenham Ladies’ College.
