Tucked away in the heart of the Cotswolds, this recently-converted former granary with its honey-coloured historic walls is home to industrial-cool interiors featuring bespoke contemporary artwork. Sit on the patio with a glass of Champagne or play a game of tennis – there’s an all-weather astro-turf court beyond the terrace – the facilities here are ace. This place is the perfect escape for a few friends or a family. Just outside the charming village of Temple Guiting, you’re ideally located to explore all that the Cotswolds have to offer. You’ll be surrounded by excellent walking and cycling trails, and many of the area’s most beautiful towns and villages are just a short drive away. Burton-on-the-Water, for example, is a mere fifteen-minute drive away and is known for its patchwork of attractive bridges and charming shops. It’s always worth a visit.
