In the heart of Stow-on-the-Wold, this cottage puts one of the Cotswold's most famous towns on your doorstep. Pubs, local shops, and tea rooms are just a short walk away, while the scenic countryside is nearby for long walks with the dog. Back home, you'll have all you need to unwind between your adventures. There's a cosy lounge with a wood burner, a large kitchen, and a sunny garden where you can relax with a tipple in the evening sun. Just note that the third bedroom is quite snug, so it's best for one adult or two children. Pets are also welcome to tag along for a fee.
