Book Both Our Cotswolds Holiday Lets Together
We have found that many of our guests come to stay as a multigenerational family or with a few families together. Many of our guests come back year after year, often with different combinations of friends and family and we always look after our returning guests with special rates.
Why not book both the retreat and the cottage at the same time, so that perhaps the grandparents or a couple or family can have their own space but still join in with the many activities on site?
If you book both cottage and retreat at the same time, then all of you have access to the games room, indoor pool and tennis court, rather than just the cottage guests when they are booked independently of each other.
We have helpful guides on the website to help you to plan your trip, including:

The Cotswolds: Where our Self Catering Holiday Homes are?
Well Furlong is situated at the end of a long, quiet, private drive, surrounded by beautiful picturesque countryside. The local pub is within walking distance (2 miles) in the well known neighbouring Cotswold village of Elmley Castle, one of the most charming villages in south Worcestershire.
What we love most about Well Furlong Retreats is the secluded position within the beautiful Cotswolds countryside and being able to reach Bredon Hill across Well Furlong’s fields. Bredon Hill is part of the Cotswolds National Park, a magical AONB and if you climb to the top, you can see across 6 different counties.
We are so lucky to live here and love to share this wonderful location with all of you who come to stay at Well Furlong Retreats.
What To Do In The Cotswolds
Well Furlong Cottage is the perfect base for the Cheltenham Literary and Cheltenham Race Festival. The Cotswolds has much to offer, with fantastic walking, Bredon Hill on our doorstep and the rolling hills of the Malverns nearby. The area is packed with characterful holiday homes in the Cotswolds, with towns such as Moreton-in-Marsh, Chipping Norton and Chipping Campden all within an hour’s drive.
Savour Cotswold country life and fine dining — with some of the country’s best gastro pubs and restaurants nearby. There’s an online guide here to help you plan and book ahead.
For those who love the heritage of the Cotswolds, there are many National Trust Houses to visit including Croome Park and Hanbury Hall. Some of the many local Cotswold landmarks to visit include Broadway, Stow-on-the-Wold, Cotswold Water Park, Bourton-on-the-Water and Burford. Blenheim Palace is approximately a 40-minute drive away and for those families who want a fund day out, Cotswold Wildlife Park is a firm favourite of our family. Lots more tips here.
