The ideal Cotswolds getaway, this cottage is packed with character. Wooden beams and a cosy fireplace set the scene in the living area, while a small kitchen is ideal for breakfasts and quick bites. Outside, you can enjoy drinks in the cottage garden. Despite being on the grounds of the owner's property, you'll have complete independence here. And the location is fantastic for exploring the area. You'll be based in the small village of Naunton, where honey-stone homes are surrounded by the scenic Cotswolds hills. Stow-on-the-Wold and Bourton-on-the-Water are both within easy driving distance.
