Seeking an escape to the Cotswolds? This divine home offers families a contemporary layout, despite its origins as a 19th-century chapel. Traditional character is promised with the original church door, stained glass windows, and a log burner for chilly days. Two dogs are welcome, though you might like to keep your pets on the south-facing patio and away from the garden's pond. We love the flexible bed set-ups here, a thoughtful bonus for diverse groups. In the village of Shipton Oliffe, you're less than 10 miles from Cheltenham and Bourton-on-the-Water.

Additional fees

• Two well-behaved dogs are welcome to join you for an additional fee or £47 each – this must be paid before your arrival date. A dog towel and dog mat are provided for free in the utility room.

• Your host works with local vendors to provide a variety of in-cottage services for an additional fee, including wine and cider tastings, private chefs and dining experiences, hampers and food boxes, cooking classes, yoga sessions, floristry workshops, craft kits, massages, and beauty treatments.

• Your host can also help arrange paid experiences in the local area – these include horse and bike tours, helicopter rides, paddleboarding, spa days, and a wide range of days out.

Additional fees subject to a 3.5% handling charge.
