A weekend in the Cotswolds calls for rambling walks across rolling hills, cosy country pubs, fairytale villages – and a country-chic abode to call your own. This home is perfect for families looking for a wholesome holiday filled with fresh country air and long nights by the crackling fire. With a separate sitting room and snug, each with a Smart TV, there’ll be no arguing over which film to watch in the evenings. But there’s no guarantee there won’t be squabbles for first dibs on the freestanding roll-top bath in the family bathroom, a luxurious way to end the day. Each en-suite bedroom boasts countryside views, and the conservatory dining area sets the scene for intimate family dinners – we really love the brickwork and industrial-style chairs. While the village shop and local pub are just a short stroll down the lane, you’ll want to get out and explore this Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty. Head to Stow-on-the-Wold, a six-minute drive away, for traditional tearooms, art galleries and antiques, visit the pretty market town of Moreton-in-Marsh for food stalls and narrow cobbled backstreets as old as time, only three miles away, or spend the day at the races in Cheltenham just half an hour from your comfy lodgings.
