Charming and cosy, this 17th-century cottage embodies a classic Cotswolds stay. It's bursting with character – we're talking wooden beams, a stone hearth, sloped floors, and steep stairs leading to the rustic main bedroom. Here, mornings call for hearty breakfasts in the eat-in kitchen, while evenings are best spent curled up in front of the fire. There's also a garden if you fancy some fresh air and pretty countryside views. Outdoor enthusiasts will have access to scenic walks on the doorstep. For those looking to explore further afield, you'll find Bourton-on-the-Water, Stow-on-the-Wold and Burford within driving distance.
