Mulberry Tree Cottage dating back to the middle of the 19th Century, is a fine two bedroom hoilday cottage typical of the style and type found in the historic Vale of Berkeley.
Lying just a few miles north of Berkeley and its impressive 12th century castle, to which the cottage has links, the property comprises two bedrooms, a mezzanine sitting room, large dining room, kitchen, bathroom and utility room; all of which have recently undergone extensive renovation and decoration.
Taking its name from the two large Mulberry trees that sit on an adjacent lawn, the cottage has a rich and interesting history sharing its plot with the 15th century house (former cottage) that is believed to have been the home of Dicky Pearce, the ill-fated Court Jester that met a somewhat controversial end in Berkeley Castle in the early 1700s.
The pagoda which sits proudly on the cottage roof harks back to the days when the site was used as a commercial flower farm. The cottage was used as a place to dry and store the flowers (mostly peonies) before being shipped to customers around the world.
Mulberry Tree Cottage has a large lawn with two Mulberry Trees and parking for two cars.
