The limestone escarpment that makes up the Cotswolds is rural England at its most exquisite. Its well-wooded and gently-farmed contours are studded with biscuit-tin villages, with their grand manor houses and churches, all built of local golden-grey stone in the Middle Ages.

We include as standard a basket of essential groceries, a bottle of wine chilling in the fridge, the fire laid, fresh towels and toiletries, and a spotlessly clean and elegant interior.
