Dating back to the 1880s, this former barn now provides a beautiful countryside cottage experience for families exploring The Cotswolds. Though it's since undergone renovations, it takes pride in the stone floors, exposed walls and beams, adding character and charm to the space, even if the sloped ceilings mean taller guests have to watch their heads. At least there's no ducking outside where an expansive garden gives you more than enough space. You'll also find the seasonal swimming pool, fire pit, alfresco dining table and, if requested, a hot tub out here. As for location, you're within easy driving distance of Cotswolds treasures such as Tetbury, Malmesbury and Cirencester.

Home truths

    We suggest hiring a car for ease – there's parking space for up to two cars here.

    There's a ground-floor bedroom and bathroom here.

    The swimming pool is available for use between mid-April and the end of September, depending on the weather. It isn't fenced – if you're bringing little ones, they'll need to be supervised at all times.

    The ceiling in some areas is on the low side. It might not be suitable for taller guests.

    If you're travelling with little ones, your host can provide a cot and high chair for free – just bring your own linen.

    This home does not allow groups where the majority of guests are under the age of 25, or single-sex group celebrations, including stag/hen parties.
