Looking for all the world as though it’s been plucked from the pages of a magical fairytale, The Kitchen Garden Cottage is the perfect place to unwind.

Not only is there an enchanting ‘Hansel and Gretel’ pathway that leads you up to the cabin-style cottage, but you’ll also be surrounded by whimsical gardens that boast colourful, cared-for blooms and whispering apple trees.

Delightfully secluded on the edge of the Cotswolds, you’ll also have easy access to some of the area’s iconic attractions, from Soho Farmhouse and Daylesford Organic to Jeremy Clarkson’s famed Diddly Squat Farm Shop.

Sleeping up to two adults and two children, the cottage is ideal for a relaxed couple’s getaway or a fun family break, whichever you prefer! There’s a gorgeous, soft-toned master suite with a downy Emperor-sized bed, and a cheerful, connecting ‘treetop’ bunk room – complete with leafy wallpaper – that the kids will adore.

These indulgent bedrooms are separated from the captivating living space by a sliding door. Simply step through, to be greeted by calming wood-panelled walls that extend all the way up to the vaulted ceiling, with colourful striped flooring and industrial-style windows.

The furnishings, meanwhile, are plush and elegant, in rich earth-tones that promise to soothe your weary souls… particularly by evening, when you light the wood-burner for a gentle, homely glow.

Made by the owners with produce direct from the garden, there will be fresh apple-juice waiting for you in the chalet-style kitchen, which is also home to sleek mod-cons that make holiday life effortlessly easy.
