Accessibility

Neighborhood

When you book, you will receive our digital guidebook including links and maps for recommended pubs, restaurants, places to go and how everything works in the cottage. Check out our 5* reviews! We are surrounded by wooded and hillside walks, there is a kids' playground very close by and village shop is also walking distance. The canal and river are at the bottom of the valley and there are cafés and pubs all walking distance from the cottage. We are at the top of the Golden Valley between Chalford and Stroud. There are 5 valleys all starting in Stroud. These 5 valleys are the reason the Stroud valleys have been nicknamed the Devil's Claw- it is said once you have visited you will feel compelled to return.....(or maybe it's because of the stunning vistas, the many official AONBs (Areas of Outstanding Natural Beauty) and the chill friendly people who live here....).

Key Cottage is a gem. Great little cottage in a quiet, yet conveniently located neighborhood. Lots of great walks from the cottage. A very nice pun just 10 minutes by foot away. Ali’s recommendations were helpful and spot on. Such a great place - looking forward to our next stay!

We had a great stay at Key Cottage with plenty of room for our family of five. The cottage was very well equipped with everything we needed in both the kitchen and bathrooms. We enjoyed exploring the surrounding areas including several great country walks and then coming back to sit round the fire.

This is a lovely area of the Cotswolds with lots of interesting places within walking distance or a short drive away. The cottage is really cosy and extremely quiet. It really feels like a home because it contains everything you could possibly need. The kitchen is well stocked and the beds were very comfy. Lots of nice touches like homemade cookies on arrival! Alison is a super-responsive host and all questions we had were dealt with quickly, e.g. best pubs for food within walking distance. We really hope to stay at Key cottage again in the future.
