Maplewood Barn - Luxury Cottage In The Cotswolds

Maplewood Barn sits on a quiet lane in the picturesque village of Bisley. Steeped in history, this beautiful 200 year old barn, was once part of a group of buildings owned by The Bear Inn, which stands close by. Today, Maplewood Barn is a fabulous base for couples or families to discover all the Cotswolds has to offer. Lovingly restored by the owner, floor to ceiling windows with french doors allow light to flood the ground floor, whilst characterful beams upstairs seamlessly blend in with modern furnishings.

Outside there is a pretty cottage style garden with outdoor seating, perfect for a morning coffee or alfresco dining on a summers evening.
