If you’re longing for country charm, this cottage in the Cotswolds could be the holiday home for you. It sits in an Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty in Shipton-under-Wychwood, close to other chocolate box villages including Stow-on-the-Wold, Moreton-in-Marsh, and Chipping Norton. The Oxfordshire Way passes close to the cottage, making this an excellent choice for keen walkers and cyclists. The cottage looks out over fields and boasts a charming garden – you can unwind here. Inside, you’ll find vintage-style wallpaper and textiles, antique furniture, and a wood-burning stove to keep things cosy. We think you’ll love it.
