Tucked away in the heart of Bourton-on-the-Water, this romantic bolthole is an escape for two. Inside, exposed beams and Cotswold stone set the tone for cosy evenings beside the log burner, while the petite but well-equipped kitchen and dining space are just right for long suppers and local wine. Step outside and you’re moments from the River Windrush, artisan delis, and picture-perfect bridges that have earned the village its nickname, the Venice of the Cotswolds. Spend the day exploring nearby walks and charming local spots, then return to your hideaway to unwind.
