A fantastic little cottage, perfect for exploring the Cotswolds & surrounding area. Cosy, comfy beds & everything we needed for a short stay. Special bonus was everything being on one level, which was ideal for our elderly Mum who struggles with mobility. Would definitely stay again.

I would recommend The Cow Shed if looking for a place to stay in the area. It is a lovely clean property with comfortable beds and plenty of space. Great little welcome pack and delicious fresh eggs on top, which I thought was a nice little touch.
