This charming barn conversion is quintessentially Cotswolds, with a vaulted ceiling, exposed beams and flagstone floors. A self-contained annexe, attached to the host's home, you'll find this cosy spot in a pretty village just ten-minutes' drive from Cheltenham. Inside, the old blends with the new, thanks to underfloor heating and a modern kitchen and bathroom. The ground floor space is open and sociable, and there's a garden room (which doubles as a second bedroom) opening to a lovely terrace with far-reaching views. In an Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty, it's a walker's paradise, and the home has paths that run from the rear to various trails, including the Cotswolds Way. A thirty-five minute walk will take you to a grand country hotel for lunch and it's just a little further to the pub.

Home truths

    At full occupancy, 2 guests will be on the sofa bed in the garden room

    The open fire is being reinstated so it'll be an even cosier stay in the winter months
