Kingway Farm Cottage is believed to date back to around 1650, with a plaque on the chimney bearing a date of 1635 and it has been home to the current owners for the past twenty-five years. They converted the adjoining outbuildings into an annexe providing ancillary residential/holiday accommodation in 2015. The fabulous grade II listed traditional agricultural threshing barn, and whilst it currently houses two internal loose boxes and provides plenty of storage, it has previously had planning permission for conversion to a pottery with offices, although this has subsequently expired.
Nestled in the beautiful north Wiltshire countryside, Kingway Farm enjoys an enviable position between the charming villages of Corston and Hullavington, just four miles south of the historic market town of Malmesbury. Full ranges of shops and amenities are provided by Malmesbury, Cirencester, Bath and Bristol, and within the immediate local area there are a number of popular pubs, including the Somerford Arms at Little Somerford, The Vine Tree at Norton and The Potting Shed at Crudwell.
