It’s hard to believe these walls were once just decorated with rosettes awarded to prize cows. Now, just a few years after the herds of Bibury Farm moved out, they’re tastefully clad in shades of grey, with Gothic-style mirrors, pastel-daubed canvases and handmade tiles. One of a beautifully renovated cluster of former outhouses in the scenic Cotswolds countryside, this home has been styled by leading local interior designer Pippa Paton to make a seriously chic country escape. Highlights include the free-standing bath in the master bedroom, wood burner in the sophisticated living room and the private terrace. Not to mention its sustainability credentials (no oil or gas, ground-sourced heating, waste recycling and refillable bath products), concierge service for local bookings and welcoming two-dog policy. Located between Burford and Cirencester, it’s a great base to explore all the Cotswolds has to offer, by car or on foot. The nearest village of Bibury, a ten-minute walk, is home to a Saxon Church, the famous 14th-century street Arlington Row and – of most interest to us, if we’re honest – the Catherine Wheel pub and its delicious roasts. We're sure you'll agree, this is a seriously good shed.

Home truths
As this is one of five rental properties on the farm, you may encounter other guests during your time here
There's a connecting door to an adjoining barn in the house, which makes this home slightly less private than others on the property (though the door will not be in use if you are not renting out both properties)
The bedrooms with two single beds can also be reconfigured as Superking beds on request
This home is short on wardrobe space, so we'd recommend packing light
