In the quiet village of Moreton-in-Marsh, this 19th-century cottage is ideal for exploring the charms of the Cotswolds. Original features like the exposed stone and wooden beams give the interiors even more of a cosy feel, particularly in the living space, where you can curl up on a comfy sofa in front of the wood burner – or open up the antique desk for a writing session. And although you've got your own private piece of Cotswolds country in the sunny back garden, this home is ideally located for exploring the surrounding country, either on foot, by car, or by public transport – the bus will get you to Stow-on-the-Wold in just twenty minutes.

Home truths
Starter toiletries are provided. However, you will want to stock up on other essentials such as coffee and tea, as these are not included.
Self-check-in is available here. You'll either pick up the keys at a nearby property or use a lockbox on the premises. Your host will confirm instructions before your arrival.
Your host uses a third-party platform called Truvi for ID verification and to manage damage deposits independently from Plum Guide. They'll send you a link to fill out when you book.
This is a traditional cottage with some low beams and steep stairs, so taller guests and those with reduced mobility should take care.
This home is easily accessible from Moreton-in-Marsh train station, but there is free, on-street parking if you're travelling by car.
