Drop your bags and get to know the charming market town of Stow-on-the-Wolds from this cottage. Spread over three floors and with its own spacious garden, it's great for large groups. The front door opens onto a road so small children and pets will need supervision, and the ceilings are quite low in some rooms so tall guests should be mindful. But you'll be surrounded by fantastic local shops, cafes and restaurants, and close to nearby towns like Burford and Broadway, so there's plenty to explore on foot or by car.
