Hidden down winding country lanes between Tetbury and Westonbirt, this peaceful cottage is a classic Cotswold escape. Inside, soft tones, rustic beams and a log-burning fire set a comforting tone for slow mornings and evenings in. Curl up with a book by the window seat, share board games by the fire, or cook up a feast in the shaker-style kitchen. Three charming bedrooms offer quiet spots to rest your head, while the enclosed garden is a lush green retreat made for picnics, pets and peaceful days in the sun. From woodland walks at Westonbirt Arboretum to browsing antiques in Tetbury, this is the kind of place where countryside living comes naturally.
