You’ll find this Grade II listed cottage tucked away in Stow-on-the-Wold. Sure, outdoor space is limited here with just a small courtyard that serves no real use, but the interior is packed full of charm. The wood burner will be a welcome sight after a day out exploring the Cotswolds, and settling down under the old beams in the bedrooms will send you off into a restful sleep. There’s not a huge amount of storage space in the bedrooms though, so if you don’t want to be tripping over your suitcase, it’s a good idea to pack light.
