When you think of the Cotswolds, chances are you picture chocolate-box villages, cobbled lanes and that famous honey-coloured stone. Stow-on-the-Wold promises all that and more. It's home to chic restaurants, traditional inns, cosy pubs and plenty of independent shops ripe for browsing. With countryside walks on your doorstep and many Cotswolds attractions within driving distance, this is a desirable place to be – and we absolutely adore this cottage, which is smack-dab in the centre of town. Once an antique showroom, this inviting homestead is now filled with local artwork – including paintings by the host's grandfather – as well as The Cotswold Company furniture and every amenity you can think of. Snuggle up with a book in front of the wood-burner, challenge the family to a board game around the dining table or relax with a soak in the sumptuous master bathtub. The private courtyard is the perfect spot to savour a cup of tea or a cocktail in the sun. In the evenings, light the barbecue and enjoy an alfresco meal, gathering around the fire pit for toasted marshmallows when the air turns chilly. 

Host Susy goes above and beyond, providing everything you'll need, be it a complete dinner set and kitchen loaded with appliances and crockery to the luxury toiletries in the bathrooms. She can even arrange restaurant reservations and has a whole slew of recommendations, so you'll be in excellent hands.

Proud and handsome with a serene surround, from the outside, this place is picture–perfect. Mounds of luscious green ivy canopy the sage front door and the elongated picture windows tease a glimpse of what’s inside…

As we weave our way from room to room, it’s clear to see that this place is so much more than just a pretty front cover. Exposed timbers and stone walls show off the home’s original charm, meanwhile the natural oak floors and soothing, neutral colour scheme create a relaxing space to unwind. 

We love the dining room. With its traditional, lanterned ceiling and large wooden table, there’s no better place to enjoy a spot of evening entertainment with friends and family. Gather around, pop open the bubbly and while the night away with board games, nibbles, fun and laughter before sprawling out in your snuggly bed for a well–deserved night’s sleep.

For those visiting during the cooler months, the wood burning stove promises to keep you toasty and snug, meanwhile in the summer, the south–facing garden presents the ideal spot to soak up the sun.

Underfloor Heating

Safety Gates

Standing along a smart row of 18th Century townhouses in Stow-on-the-Wold, you'll find this Grade II listed home. Don't be deceived by its chocolate-box façade. Step inside, and this ancient property is anything but twee. The four-storey house has been lovingly reimagined into a light-filled space awash in crisp whites, soothing greys and lavenders, and luxurious finishes. The original 1700's features remain (the oak beams and impressive stone staircase is quite something), while elsewhere, everything is firmly into the 21st Century. Climb the stairs to the top floor to discover a marble-clad bathroom with a double walk-in shower and a serene master bedroom boasting a sumptuous emperor-sized bed. At the heart of the home is an immaculate kitchen made for action and a large farmhouse dining table for you to all spill out. But if you don't fancy cooking, you're just a stone's throw to some of the best-known eateries and watering holes in the Cotswolds. While just next door, you'll find the Fosse Gallery – considered one of the best art galleries in the country. Now, how's that for a location?

The Willow House

Ping Pong Table

Once an Iron Age fort and now a postcard-perfect market town, Stow-on-the-Wold has swapped swords for scones — and this dog-friendly home puts you right at its heart. Set on a quiet residential street, it’s a cosy base for exploring the Cotswolds, with scenic walking and cycling routes starting practically from the doorstep. We love how it’s been designed with families in mind — there’s table tennis in the garage, a handy utility room, and two twin bedrooms ideal for kids to bunk down in or friends to share. When the weather plays nice, the enclosed patio out back makes a pretty setting for sunny evening meals.

The Gypsy Horse

EV Charger

Dating back to the sixteenth century, this traditional stone cottage in the Cotswolds is bursting with rustic charm. Plenty of period features remain, including the inglenook fireplace now home to a wood-burning stove and the vaulted ceilings complete with ceiling beams.

However, there have been plenty of home improvements made in the past half-millennium. The beautifully arranged garden is a prime example, with the pergola and patio making it a lovely spot to catch the golden hour. Back inside, the rather grand dining-kitchen area is a modern interpretation of rural design, while we're willing to bet you'll also be thankful for the sleek bathtub after a long ramble.

The local village of Longborough has a twelfth-century church, two pubs and an opera festival that takes place in a converted barn during the summer months. Sezincote House and Garden makes for a splendid afternoon out and is only half an hour away on foot, too.



A Village Retreat

Perfect for a romantic rural retreat, this cottage is full of chocolate-box charm. Small in size, it still packs a punch with added extras such as the wood burner and roll-top bath, ideal for relaxing and warming up after a day out hiking the Cotswolds with your four-legged friends by your side. The cosy kitchen is well-equipped with all you need to rustle up homemade dinners, or for a meal out, the local pub is a mere two-minute walk away. 

The River's Edge

Set in the heart of Moreton-in-Marsh, this 17th-century Cotswold cottage blends historic charm with home comforts. Think flagstone floors, exposed stone walls, and woodburning stoves for toasty evenings in. The spacious kitchen/diner is perfect for gathering, while three cosy bedrooms offer a peaceful night’s rest. There’s room outdoors to unwind in the courtyard with a barbecue or head up to the roof terrace for sunset drinks. With shops, pubs, and countryside walks just steps away, this is an ideal base for exploring the Cotswolds. 

The Flying Falcon

An idyllic 18th-century cottage in the heart of the Cotswolds. Set over three floors, this charming home is where sloped ceilings, limestone floors, exposed beams and a brick hearth meet contemporary altercations in elegant fashion. Knock up a hearty homemade meal in the classic country-style kitchen to be enjoyed around the old oak dining table, before losing yourself in a good book by the crackling fire. Spend warmer evenings in the sunny courtyard area at the rear of the cottage. With its beautiful Acer tree and a dining table for four, we can't imagine a lovelier spot to relax with a glass of chilled wine. When you do peel yourself away from home, Stow-on-the-Wold is a six-minute drive away, but the real gems are the village pub and picturesque green, just a five-minute wander up the road. 

The Garden of Tranquillity

Games Console

Pool / Snooker Table

Country Bliss

Enjoy all the quintessential Cotswold delights with a stay in this Stow-on-the-Wold bolthole. Built from traditional honey-coloured stone, this cosy cottage dates back 150 years, yet inside you'll find all the modern upgrades you'll need. The crackling wood-burner and snug living room make for a super-cosy hideaway – after a long day, there's nothing better than cuddling up with a book and a cup of tea on the squishy sofas. When the weather is nice, throw open the French doors and revel in the fresh air. We love the walled courtyard – perfect for a Pimm's fuelled garden party as the sun goes down – and the country-style kitchen makes self-catering a dream. There are board games, a DVD player and a Bluetooth speaker for rainy days and chilled evenings at home, but with a location this good, you'll want to spend every minute exploring.

Savour slow mornings around the table, brisk countryside walks and leisurely afternoons with a book or games by the fire. And when the weather permits, the garden provides a calming backdrop to evening drinks and barbecue meals. 

Nestled between Moreton-in-Marsh and Stow-on-the-Wold, you’ll find Longborough exemplifies the picture-perfect Cotswold village. It’s just a short walk to the nearest shop and pub, while the area is brimming with opportunities for long hikes, cycle rides, sightseeing and leisurely strolls through nearby market towns. 

Honeyed Luxury

You’ll find this charming cottage in Lower Slaughter, providing an ideal base from which to explore the beauty of the Cotswolds. Inside, the home is packed full of old school charm, but it’s the outdoor space that caught our eye. Vast lawns give way to pretty flowerbeds, and there are cosy seating areas to dine or simply kick back with a good book. Locally, there are plenty of walks to enjoy through Lower Slaughter that run along the River Eye, along with a village pub serving delicious meals. Within easy reach, you’ll also find Bourton-on-the-Water, Stow-on-the-Wold and Burford – all much deserving of a visit.

Country Kitchen

Baby Bath

With a terrace offering up a vista of the rolling north Cotswolds, it won't be a mystery why we added this home to our collection. Previously a home for silk mill workers, we loved how homely the space is – start a roaring fire in the inglenook fireplace (made with local stone, no less) and relax after a long hike or a short stroll through the local village. In the garden, the alfresco dining area is perfect for afternoon tea, while the sun loungers let you take in the view in-between naps. For dinner, you've got several pubs within a short walk here.

Herb Garden

With its warm stone exterior, there's no mistaking what area of England this lovely Edwardian villa is in – it’s nestled in the popular Cotswold village of Bourton-on-the-Water. We adore the fragrant, lavender-filled south-facing garden – it's the perfect spot for a sunny afternoon barbecue followed by a lavender martini. The level lawn is ideal for garden games too. The grounds here are a real highlight – there's even a beautiful pear tree flourishing at the front.

Or head to the Cotswold Motoring Museum, which has a variety of vintage cars and a toy collection. The nearest major supermarket is an eighteen-minute walk or a four-minute drive away, and there are some tempting bakeries for tasty pastries and bread. But where are the charming pubs, we hear you ask? Well, there are three lovely ones to choose from here.

All tied up in the neat little bow that is Kingham, one of the Cotswold’s prettiest villages just moments away. And you’ve got yourself the perfect countryside retreat. Inside this eighteenth-century cottage, you’ll find a crackling fire for cosying up on colder nights. A light-filled living space with French doors opening out onto a south-facing private garden for summer evening barbecues. A suntrap conservatory overlooking the garden, that’s the perfect spot for your breakfast. And elegant, spacious bedrooms upstairs (a four-poster bed to boot) with picture-perfect window views. When you do decide to venture further afield from this quiet countryside idyll, you’re just a five-minute walk to the village centre with its award-winning gastropubs for an evening meal.

It’s also perfectly positioned for exploring the Cotswolds, with Chipping Campden 3 miles away and Moreton-in-Marsh 4 miles away. The former mill is also on the route of the Heart of England Way, Diamond Way, and Monarch’s Way – it’s an excellent base for hikers. 

The Millstream

Built in the 18th century, it's hard to believe this pretty Cotswolds cottage was once the village police station. Now beautifully modernised, it's a great choice for a family gathering. With all the country walks you could dream of on your doorstep, it's also super convenient – just a five-minute walk from the village shop, cafe and pub in Blockley. Set over three floors and built of the same traditional stone you'll see across the road at the local church, it's a striking building with black-framed, arched windows. Inside, the period features continue with beamed ceilings, wood floors and some exposed stone walls. We especially love the log burning stove in the fireplace opening between the living room and dining room. Extended to the rear, there's a stunning kitchen with a huge roof lantern bringing light in. With a country feel but modern appliances and underfloor heating, it's the best of both worlds. Elsewhere, bedrooms are comfortable and effortlessly stylish. The top floor bedroom is our favourite, with its beautiful bed, sloping ceiling and luxury bathroom. On sunny days, heat up the barbecue and enjoy your meal on the terrace, or step into the table tennis room in the garden and play a few games while dinner cooks. Here you'll be just a twelve-minute drive from Stow-on-the-Wold.

Keen to venture out? A short stroll leads you into the village's pubs, restaurants, and shops. You're also near a historic Anglican church, where the chime of the bells will be the soundtrack to your stay.

When Bells Chime

You’ll find this renovated church in the village of Paxford, an ideal base from which to explore the Cotswolds. It may not be suitable for children due to the staircase design and historic fixtures throughout the home, but it offers a relaxing retreat for four guests. The mezzanine bedroom is impressive, if lacking a little in privacy, and offers a different perspective of the interiors of this historic building. And with hiking trails on its doorstep, you can be out soaking up the great outdoors in no time.
