Formerly a coaching inn, this 18th-century cottage is bursting with character and charm. It is located in a peaceful South Cotswolds hamlet, next to the owner’s working dairy farm. Guests are welcome to visit the farm to see the animals or enjoy pony or horse riding lessons. Surrounded by open countryside, with plenty of walking trails accessible from the cottage, it’s the perfect property for families or small groups of up to five to get a taste of country life.

Stonehenge is 30 miles away. Closer to home, guests will find a shop and local pub less than 2 miles from the cottage.
