A side gate gains access to the rear garden and outbuilding.  

AMENITIES Straddling the Little Avon lies the village of Kingswood. It has a long history, its main claim to fame being that it was once the site of an important Cistercian Abbey, as a 'daughter' of Tintern. Founded in 1139 by a member of the Berkeley family, the Abbey moved to several different locations in its early years before settling in Kingswood. Following the dissolution of the monasteries by Henry VIII, much of the Abbey was demolished and the stone and timbers used for building elsewhere. Today, only the 16th Century gatehouse and some precinct walling remain.
Situated approximately 1 ½ miles away to the south-west is Wotton-Under-Edge. This small market town is tucked away on the southern edge of the Cotswolds with Nibley Hill providing spectacular views across the Severn valley. The town is a hospitable, thriving and lively place, with interesting and historic buildings. The town offers many amenities with the main streets packed with small family run shops selling an amazing range of goods. Supermarkets, a golf club, cinema, banks, post office, cafes and restaurants can also be found here, and is equidistant from Gloucester and Bristol, Cheltenham, Cirencester and Bath, only a few miles from the M4 (Junction 18) and M5 (Junction 14). Whilst, the nearest train station can be found at Cam, approximately 6 miles away.
