You'll find this cosy bolthole for two (and a furry friend) squirreled away in the vast grounds of a charming walled garden within the sleepy Cotswold's village of Coleshill. Inside, the host has lovingly converted this once-humble wagon to provide all the creature comforts. Guests rave about the spotless interiors, and it's easy to see why. There's a surprisingly well-equipped kitchen to cook up a feast, a neat en-suite shower room, and a king-sized cabin bed to bank a cheeky lie-in. Spend dreamy days exploring the seven acres of grounds to marvel at the fruits of your host's labour – part of a working farm, there are over sixty varieties of organic fruit and veg on show and available to buy from the on-site farm shop. Or mosey into the village for a dose of the good life. Part of the Coleshill Estate (owned by the National Trust), the parkland walks and café to refuel afterward are a delight. As is the local country inn with its very own microbrewery for a swift pint and bite to eat – placed just a five-minute walk away through a secret door hidden away in the walled garden. Then all that's left to do is to head back home to get your glow on beside the log burner – there's a stack of firewood at the ready and country vistas to glimpse through the windows. Or, on long summer nights, watch nature unfold outside on the terraces as the birds strike up their evening chorus – there's no finer place to toast the day.
