A warm welcome to your next cosy retreat...
Being an ex-Alms House, Church Cottage is a delightful grade-2 heritage listed 2-bedroom thatched cottage nestled in a peaceful churchyard location, yet only a one minute walk to the vibrant Towcester town centre. Brimming with period charm, this characterful home features exposed beams, cosy living spaces, and a tranquil atmosphere. Enjoy the best of both worlds—seclusion and convenience—with pubs, shops, cafés, and amenities just moments away. A rare opportunity to enjoy historic charm in the heart of town​.

Come on in ..but mind your head!
As you arrive, mind your head— Church Cottage has a rather low doorway!
Step inside and you’ll find yourself in the heart of the home: a well-equipped kitchen (new in June 2025) and dining area, perfect for cooking, chatting, and enjoying time together. Everything you need for a comfortable stay is here, including a handy cupboard, which may have a gravestone or two set into the old quarry tiles, adding a unique touch of history.

Moving through to the living room
From the kitchen, the original tiled floor leads into the snug living room with its open fire and comfy Patterdale sofa. Whether you’re curling up with a book, catching up on TV, or simply watching the peaceful churchyard from the window seat, it’s a perfect place to unwind. And yes, we’ve got superfast WiFi for business, pleasure or internet TV.

Let's take a look upstairs
Up the winding staircase to the master bedroom which is spacious and inviting, featuring a super king bed with a sumptuous mattress to ensure a restful night’s sleep. Look up and you’ll spot ancient rafters peeking through the paint—just one of the many lovely period features. If you’re visiting on a Sunday morning, you might even wake to the sound of church bells ringing, best enjoyed with a cup of tea in bed.
The second bedroom offers a cosy double bed and a charming low window with peaceful views across the churchyard.
The bathroom may be compact, but it’s the perfect place to enjoy a relaxing soak in the bathtub. While there’s no walk-in shower, the handheld shower over the bath works well for freshening up.
