In the heart of Gloucester, this fuss-free home puts all the sights within walking distance. Whether you want to grab a bite to eat, marvel at the Cathedral, or catch a game at the Kingsholm Rugby Stadium, you'll be well-placed to get out and about. Back home, there isn't much space to spread out – especially with the sofa bed in use – but the contemporary interiors are a relaxing respite from the hustle and bustle. There's a well-appointed kitchen if you fancy a home-cooked meal, and the dining table also doubles as a desk for remote workers. Plus, with free permit parking available, exploring the Cotswolds is a breeze.

There's a Ring doorbell by the front door.
The wi-fi is a little temperamental.
