The cottage is situated in the heart of Willersey, a small village on the northern edge of the picturesque Cotswolds, bordering the Vale of Evesham. It is about 6 miles from Evesham and easily accessed by car from the M5, A424, A46 and the A429 (the Fosse Way).
In Willersey there are two pubs: the Bell Inn and New Inn. Both serve food at reasonable prices, with a take-away service available to enjoy. Only a couple of miles away is the vibrant village of Broadway with its newly open Broadway Ashmolean Museum (an offshoot of the famous Oxford institution) as well as shops, tea rooms, restaurants and pubs.
A little further is Chipping Camden which is walkable, if you are of a sturdy constitution and are happy to tackle a steep hill. Evesham is short journey away, and there you will find the nearest large supermarkets. It is also a picturesque market town in its own right.
