Upper Doreys Mill
Country Accommodation in the Cotswolds
Upper Doreys Mill is a Cotswold stone Mill House dating from the
1770's. Set in beautiful countryside in a tranquil valley with a
stream running through it's one acre garden.
If you need peace and tranquillity this is the place.
There are no TVs in the bedrooms, although we do have a
comfortable lounge with colour television for guest use, with a log
fire in Winter and cool Summer evenings.
Most of the time the only noise is the bird song and the water
babbling in the Washbrook stream.
We are halfway along the Cotswold way long distance footpath and
there fore useful for a stopover. There also many other footpaths
in the area ( including one through our garden).
We have maps and leaflets for you to borrow.
The views from the commons and beacons around us are
magnificent. There are also many wild flowers starting with
snowdrops in the early spring.
The orchids on Edge common are beautiful.
We also have lots of buzzards, foxes, deer, rabbits, weasels,
squirrels and badgers. You might see them if you are lucky.
We do have the kingfisher come to see our Koi pond occasionally.
You have to be very quiet and very lucky to see him!
At night, we will provide a torch if you choose to walk to
the pub because it is dark when there is no moon. The stars are
lovely and we have minimum light pollution.
Gloucester with its shopping outlet, Docks and
Cathedral (where they filmed Harry Potter) is 5/6 miles down the
hill. Cheltenham with its regency splendour, wonderful shops and
Racecourse is 9/10 miles along A46.
Stroud with it's quirky and individual shops and wonderful
Farmers Market is 3 miles away.
