Experience all the charm of the Cotswolds in this historic cottage. Its thatched roof, honey-hued stone, and leaded windows are straight from a fairy tale. Step inside, however, and you'll find a few modern surprises. A sleek extension houses the contemporary kitchen-diner, offering a pretty view of the garden through its large windows. But if you're missing that quintessential character, the living area has it in spades – with the fire roaring in the stone hearth, it's the definition of cosy. Locaton-wise, Burford is just a short drive away, while local favourites like Stow-on-the-Wold, Bourton-on-the-Water, and Blenheim Palace are also within easy reach.
