Tucked away in the rolling Cotswold hills, this rural retreat near Minchinhampton is the ideal base for anyone seeking a mix of relaxation and adventure. The village itself is picture-postcard perfect, with charming shops, a friendly pub, and welcoming places to eat. Step outside and you’ll find yourself surrounded by miles of glorious countryside. Minchinhampton and Rodborough Commons, managed by the National Trust, provides sweeping views, grazing cattle, and even a golf course for those keen to tee off. Walkers are spoilt for choice here, with a network of scenic footpaths winding through pretty valleys and across open grassland. For day trips, the Cotswolds’ most beloved towns and cities are all within easy reach: Cirencester, with its Roman history; stylish Cheltenham; elegant Bath; and the characterful market town of Tetbury (all within 28 miles). History and garden lovers can take their pick from the area’s many National Trust properties, while Westonbirt Arboretum (9 miles) is a must-see.
Tucked away in the heart of a wildflower meadow, this bespoke lodge is a true country escape. Follow the winding track to discover your hideaway, well positioned to soak up sweeping views and magical sunsets across the fields. Set within 3 acres of private grounds, the lodge has been finished to an exceptional standard, with style and comfort at its core. The open-plan living space is flooded with natural light and designed to make the most of the views, whether you’re curled up on the cosy sofas watching the Smart TV, sharing meals at the dining table for four, or preparing feasts in the sleek, well-equipped kitchen. Two super-king-size zip-and-link bedrooms sit at opposite ends of the property, offering privacy for couples or friends. One boasts its own en-suite shower room, while the other has access to a gleaming family bathroom. Both are beautifully finished to ensure a restful night's sleep.
Head out onto the terrace to savour al fresco meals at the outdoor dining table, or treat yourself to a soak under the stars in the outdoor bath and shower or enjoy toasting marshmallows over the fire pit. There is also a flat sand area that children could play football on or other games just below the cottage & tree line. Secure off-road parking and bike storage are also provided, making it easy to uncover the surrounding countryside.
