Fit for a design magazine, this rural Cotswolds home is the epitome of luxury. It sits within beautiful gardens and even boasts its own pub in the old lambing shed. When you’re not mixing drinks and playing darts, you can look forward to curling up with a movie in the snug, sipping coffee in the drawing room, or sitting down to a chef-prepared feast in the stunning dining room. With its original features and elegant touches like handprinted wallpaper, this home is an idyllic base for a countryside escape.

• Your host works with local vendors to provide a variety of in-cottage services for an additional fee, including wine and cider tastings, private chefs and dining experiences, hampers and food boxes, cooking classes, yoga sessions, floristry workshops, craft kits, massages, and beauty treatments.
