Partly dating back to the 12th century and previously a chapel, the gardens of this home look out over the former church in this peaceful hamlet. Quintessentially Cotswolds, it's built from local stone and is packed with character details, from ancient ceiling beams to the exposed stonework of the chancel and nave. It's set in pretty, private gardens and it even has log burners in both the living room and the dining room. Just the right size for a family or a small group of friends, it's a delightful escape to the country, with elegant furnishings and a calm, comfy feel. We love the oak floors and dual aspect of the living room, and the rustic inglenook fireplace behind the dining table. Complete with a country kitchen, a study and a downstairs shower room, the home's spacious ground floor opens to a sunny patio and lawned gardens – perfect for summer barbecues. Meanwhile, the all-white bedrooms have vaulted ceilings and loads of period charm, and there's a second bathroom. From this spot, it's easy to explore the Cotswolds, with Moreton-in-Marsh just a couple of minutes away by car and Stow-on-the-Wold around fifteen minutes. Country walks on your doorstep include circular routes from Batsford Arboretum to the village of Blockley, plus there's a pub stop on the way.
