Once the village post office, this charming home gets our stamp of approval. Spread across three floors, it’s the perfect base for exploring the Cotswolds, with Bibury, Cirencester, and Burford just a short drive away. Inside, you’ll find plenty of character and space, with log-burners adding to the cosy feel. We love the private garden, the master suite on the top floor with stunning countryside views, and the fact that it’s just steps away from the village shop and pub.

Home truths
One well-behaved dog is welcome.
Some guests have mentioned that the bathroom on the first floor has a handheld shower and no blinds, which may not be the most practical.
While the lounge chairs and sofas are stylish, they might not be the most comfortable for everyone.
There are no handrails on the stairs, so it's something to consider for those with reduced mobility.
Check-in is from 5:00 PM, and check-out is by 10:00 AM, so please plan accordingly.
The traditional décor may not be to everyone’s taste and feels a little dated in parts.
