Is this the fairest cottage in the land?
With its low thatched roof, rough stone walls and pretty little windows, the enchanting Fairie Door Cottage could be straight from the pages of a book of fairytales.
Built in the 17th century, of Sarsen stone and flint, this quintessential country cottage nestles in the village of West Overton in Wiltshire.
One quaint doorway into the bathroom is at half height due to the huge beam that runs across the wall.
Shutters frame the view of fields and grazing horses, while the solid oak beam windowsill has aged beautifully over the centuries.
A woodburning stove warms the brick hearth and cosy living room. Fairie Door Cottage was originally four tiny cottages.
Fields surround the cottage and the village church can be seen from the end of the garden, which is bounded on two sides by a listed stone wall.
Fairie Door Cottage is available as a holiday rental from Unique Home Stays
