Nestled in Lower Brailes, this charming cottage offers a rural retreat with Cotswold walks from your doorstep. You’ll find nods to its 19th-century roots throughout, but it has all the mod-cons you could want in a home-away-from-home, including a roll top bath and wood burner, perfect for relaxing after a busy day exploring the great outdoors. The village has a great selection of amenities including independent shops, a country pub and butchers, and for exploring further afield, we’d recommend a tour at The Cotswold Distillery or a visit to the National Trust's Upton House, both about twenty minutes away by car.
