History of Dowmans Farm
The 17th century Cotswolds farm with views over the Cotswolds towards Shab Hill, was owned by Frederick Winterbotham, the RAF officer responsible for distributing the intelligence gleaned from the cracking of German enigma codes at Bletchley Park, and operatives were trained at the farm buildings in espionage during the war years. Winterbotham later wrote the book The Ultra Secret, the story behind the operation.

Outside
To the front, is a block paved parking area for three cars with a pedestrian gate that opens into a landscaped west facing garden. All of the garden is located to the front of the property and enjoys a sunny orientation and beautiful views. There is a lovely paved terrace with plenty of space for outdoor furniture. There are two sections of lawn with laurel hedgerow and post and rail fencing enclosing this lovely low maintenance garden.

Situation
The village of Coberley is in an Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty within a landscape of hills and valleys. This area of fabulous countryside is mostly agricultural and comprises a mix of beautiful parkland, woodland and conventional pasture. There is a local primary school rated Ofsted ‘outstanding’ (Coberley C of E), but obviously plenty of other excellent education options in Cheltenham as well. Slightly hidden from the main road the village also benefits from the delightful parish Church of St Giles.

For golfers, there are several courses nearby including Star Golf, Ullenwood Manor, Cotswold Hills and Lilley Brook Golf Club. Another popular attraction is Crickley Hill Country Park (1.8 miles), a haven for nature and wildlife and offering miles of trails for family walks and boasting breath-taking views above Gloucester and towards the Brecon Beacons.

Cheltenham offers a wide range of educational, sporting and leisure amenities. Cirencester dates back to Roman times and has good shops, schools, an historic Abbey Church and a wool market. Junction 11a on the M5 provides easy access to Birmingham and Bristol, with train services to London (Paddington) and other major cities from Cheltenham Spa.
