If you’re after a stylish base in the heart of the Cotswolds, this Bourton-on-the-Water cottage fits the bill nicely. Inside, the interiors nail the modern country charm brief perfectly, and each bedroom is as elegant as the next. While outside, the private patio and barbecue setup make an inviting spot for slow brunches or evening drinks. Tucked away on a quiet cul-de-sac yet just a two-minute stroll from Bourton-on-the-Water’s cafés and independent shops, the location is hard to beat. There’s private driveway parking too (a rare perk in such a central setting), making day trips to nearby Broadway and Stow-on-the-Wold all the easier.
