A Cotswold Getaway

Nestled amidst the rolling hills of Gloucestershire lies this quaint Cotswolds gem. Dating back to the 1800s, while the traditional interiors are dated, the home's wood-burning stove and stone mullion windows are undeniably charming. If we were being fussy, the front garden adjoining the neighbouring cottage isn't the most private of spaces, but it's still a lovely spot for morning coffees and evening barbecues. Set in the tiny village of Brockhampton, there's little within walking distance. But there are cosy village pubs just a short drive away, and Cheltenham Spa and Winchcombe are within easy reach, too.
