Our Story

Welcome to Cleaver Cottage

"A cottage that dates back to the early 1800s — still warm, still welcoming, still very much a family home."

Cleaver Cottage is a charming, family-run bed & breakfast in a peaceful rural spot on the edge of Appleshaw village. We're just five miles from both Andover and Tidworth, and a couple of miles from the A303 — close enough to be easy to find, far enough to feel like an escape.

Whether you're here to walk the Test Valley, race at Thruxton, wander through Salisbury or stand beneath the stones at Stonehenge, we offer flexible, comfortable accommodation with twin, double and family bedrooms — and a proper breakfast to start the day.

Warmly yours, The Family · Cleaver Cottage
