Sitting within a family-run farm, this thoughtfully restored home provides the perfect opportunity for a cosy Cotswolds retreat. Outside, you can meet the resident donkeys, follow hiking trails and relax in the private garden. It’s also just a short drive to Cheltenham and Stow-on-the-Wold – making it easy to pick up essentials for your stay. Well-behaved dogs are welcome to join you for an additional fee, plus it’s family-friendly with children amenities available on request.
