This beguiling little property in Little Alne, near Henley-in-Arden, cannot fail to charm.

From the climbing plants that adorn the walls and roof outside, to the pitched and beamed ceilings, inglenook fireplaces and stable style doors inside, Roundhill Cottage is the picture of rustic appeal.

For all its cosy looks, it is actually quite a spacious house offering five bedrooms and three receptions (if one includes the hallway which is equal in size to the drawing room).

Perched on a hillside on the edge of woodland, it has views of the valley below it to one side and a copse of trees to the other, the latter being part of the four acres of land that comes with the cottage.

Inside there is a large central main reception hall with vaulted roof, tiled floor and galleried landing.

Double doors lead from here into the formal drawing room.

This has a feature fireplace and French doors to either end which lead out to the gardens and patio areas.

The inviting traditional kitchen, with breakfast area next to it which also has doors to the garden, is fitted with solid wood cabinets, granite work tops, range cooker and beams.

Beyond this is the dining room with a second staircase separating it from the snug, a little haven of peace and quiet with its inglenook fireplace and original beams.

Other rooms on the ground floor include a study, utility room and a lean to/pantry.

Upstairs the master bedroom has an en suite bathroom and French doors that open to a Juliet balcony overlooking the gardens and copse.

Two double bedrooms share a Jack and Jill bathroom with a stand-alone bath, while the other two are served by the vaulted family bathroom.

Outside the gardens have been cleverly landscaped with interesting features at different levels.

These include terraces and patios that are suitable for dining and entertaining, seating above a natural amphitheatre, and a pond. The land also includes a paddock with stabling, making it suitable for keeping horses.

Roundhill Cottage is between the villages of Little Alne and Wotton Wawen, with the larger town of Henley-in-Arden close by.
