Experience all the charm of the Cotswolds in this historic cottage. Its thatched roof, honey-hued stone, and leaded windows are straight from a fairy tale. Step inside, however, and you'll find a few modern surprises. A sleek extension houses the contemporary kitchen-diner, offering a pretty view of the garden through its large windows. But if you're missing that quintessential character, the living area has it in spades – with the fire roaring in the stone hearth, it's the definition of cosy. Locaton-wise, Burford is just a short drive away, while local favourites like Stow-on-the-Wold, Bourton-on-the-Water, and Blenheim Palace are also within easy reach.

This beautifully preserved Cotswold cottage delivers the cosy spaces and homey comforts one needs for a memorable country escape. But what's really special about this property is its idyllic village location with charming views from the garden of the nearby Burford Church. Full of original features and with a wood-burning stove and a generous garden, it makes a great choice for a family any time of the year. 

Uniquely, your host has collected a charming array of antique tins and other curiosities, providing this cottage with a distinctive personality. Tucked away down a peaceful lane, and with the added benefit of private outside space, in just a few paces you'll find yourself on the vibrant high street of this medieval market town, where there are plenty of quirky shops and charming pubs to discover. The picture-perfect village of Bibury is just ten minutes down the road - here you'll find a honey-coloured array of cottages that overlook a Thames tributary, some of which house quaint traditional tea rooms.

Shared Washing Machine

Escape to the country in this charming cottage. It’s tucked away just a five-minute walk from the centre of Burford and its cafes and pubs, yet feels a million miles away. It’s in a quiet and secluded spot that offers views of the millstream, a leafy garden, and the neighbouring woodland. This cosy home is a studio apartment so the bed is in the living and dining area, but it doesn’t feel cramped – and there’s a balcony to spread out on. We think this is a perfect choice for a romantic weekend away.

Set along the lane which inspired L.S Lowery in his Burford Church painting, this cottage is tucked away from visitors and is one of just four on the road which remains part of Burford Boarding School. A peaceful spot, the cottage is just a minute’s walk from the medieval bridge crossing the River Windrush and all the town’s shops, pubs and restaurants. 

With its distinctive honey-coloured Cotswold stone facade, and an Art Deco panel in the front door – the home a nod's not only to the town's extensive history but also to its link to the Art and Crafts Movement. Upon entering the home you'll be warmly welcomed by a typically English countryside retreat revealing an open plan layout featuring a cosy kitchen, dining area and living area with a wood-burning stove. 

At the back of the cottage, you'll find a hidden garden with a patio, small lawn with a garden bench, planted borders as well as a cute little summer house – perfect for sitting with a book amidst the peace and quiet. The east-west orientation of the garden means it has sunshine on it – weather permitting – throughout the day and on into the evening, making it an idyllic spot for a morning coffee through to evening drinks.

When you're ready to explore the local area, stretch your legs with a blissful country walk around the Cotswolds. Try a five-mile walk out of Burford to Great and Little Barrington along the Windrush Valley and back again, or there's always the option of the two-hour circular walk taking in Fulbrook and Woodford on your way. Burford garden centre is only a mile away and you'll conveniently find the nearest pub (The Highway Inn) just 300 metres away. 

When you arrive home, you needn't worry about traipsing mud through the cottage as there is a handy boot room with a sink, hooks to hang coats, plenty of space to keep boots and shoes.

Nice to haves

Flooded with natural light, this idyllic country cottage is the perfect getaway for a group or family looking to up sticks and throw themselves into Cotswolds living - it's no wonder it won Silver at The Beautiful South Awards 2022. Dating back to 1850, it has an abundance of original features (including exposed brick walls, a spectacular fireplace, rich wooden beams and stone walls), but a luxurious, contemporary makeover has transformed it into an extraordinarily comfortable stay. 

The two lounges are the heart of the home, made extra cosy by the roaring inglenook wood-burner and underfloor heating, and they make it so you'll never want to leave once you're stretched out on one of the sofas. Oh and you'll be wowed by the spectacular sun room all the same. Guests who love to cook will enjoy making use of the large kitchen and hosting dinners either in the stone dining room or out on the sunny terrace with its glorious countryside views. The bedrooms are all elegantly styled with soft colour schemes and goose-down bedding – we particularly love the Barcelona chair in front of the French doors in the master bedroom, as well as the gigantic free-standing bath, perfect for an indulgent bubble-filled soak. 

With such stunning interiors, you'll be torn between cosying up and outdoor living while staying here – but the pristine, flower-filled garden that surrounds the home will have you jumping with joy once the sun comes out. Enjoy discovering the local charm of the Cotswolds which combines peace and quiet with endless nature and a touch of quintessential English countryside culture. 

Honey Gables

Tucked away in the quiet Cotswold village of Nether Westcote, this 18th-century barn is a delightful escape just for two. The place is packed with original features, including timber beams and stone walls, creating a rustic yet homely feel throughout. We loved how the cosy seating area with log-burning stove opens up into a bright dining space – the perfect spot for cream tea on summer afternoons. When it’s particularly warm out, sit at the bistro set in the garden with a glass of your favourite tipple and a paperback pulled from the bookcase. 

Take a nine-minute drive to Stow-on-the-Wold for its popular Farmer’s Market or stretch your legs with a ramble to Bourton-on-the-Water – it’ll take you an hour-and-a-half by foot. But if you’d prefer to stay put, your host can arrange fantastic at-home experiences including cider tasting and cooking classes.

Farmhouse Retreat

If you're looking to experience the magic of the Cotswolds, this home offers a fantastic location. Nestled in the historic village of Shilton, it’s just a short drive to Burford – often referred to as the "Gateway to the Cotswolds". You’ll be spoiled for choice when it comes to hiking trails and it’s possible to drive to Blenheim Palace and Oxford. And while there's plenty to explore in the surroundings, this 17th-century cottage has everything you could need to relax and unwind. From the cosy rooms and wood burning fires to the tranquil garden, this is the ideal setting for a refreshing retreat. One of the bedrooms is located in the garden annexe and it’s worth noting there are quite a few steps here – so this may not be the best option for those with reduced mobility.

Back at the cottage, curl up with a book in front of the log burner and feel the stresses of daily life melt away. This is the ideal place for taking a break – you can’t help but relax if the only sound you can hear is the gentle crackle of a fire. Sipping a glass of wine helps, too.

Boasting gongs, awards, and stars from every tourist body going, you can set your expectations high at this elegant cottage, sunk deep in the heart of the Cotswolds. Formerly 19th-century stables, the buildings have been lovingly converted into a series of luxury holiday homes within the immaculate grounds of the Bruern's Estate. With the privacy of your own cottage and shared facilities to rival any five-star hotel, this place ticks every box.  For the adults, expect a spa (awarded by Tatler as one of the UK's best), a fitness centre, and a heated indoor swimming pool to keep on top of fitness. Kids, meanwhile, can let off some steam on the large communal lawns and adventure playground when the sun shines. And on drizzly days, an indoor play cabin (crammed with toys) and games rooms for the older ones (with all the console tech) should keep everyone happy. Back at home, four-poster beds, drapes, and ornate rugs all convey a sumptuous luxury, but this is a home that welcomes family life too. Children's books, board games, and DVDs are on the well-stocked shelves, and there's plenty of kids amenities - just ask the host.

Imagine staying during the lambing season and enjoying springtime picnics by the pond – or coming back from a winter walk and setting up a board game by the roaring fire.

As for the evening entertainment, why not sing at the piano and play charades after a glass of wine or two?

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.

Inside, you'll find an array of character features such as the original quarry floor tiles in the hall, exposed stone walls, beams, decorative fireplaces and stained glass windows. There's a cosy snug as well as an elegant living room, so this place is ideal for families or friends looking to spread out a little.

But where are the charming pubs, we hear you ask? Well, there are three lovely ones to choose from here.
