Just a short distance from hiking and biking trails, this family-friendly cottage lets you experience it all. Jump into your car and make short work of the 15-minute drive to Fairytale Farm or the 18-minute drive to Cotswold Wildlife Park and Gardens (and enjoy the property's convenient onsite parking in the meantime).

Once you get back, you can enjoy your surroundings with the nearby pool access, fitness center and bike rentals. As for the great indoors, you can try your hand at table tennis, or enjoy the free WiFi, TV, and DVD player.

Prepare a home-cooked meal in the kitchen, complete with an oven, a stovetop, and a full-sized refrigerator/freezer, as well as a coffee maker, an electric kettle, and a microwave. Bathroom amenities include a hair dryer, free toiletries, and bathrobes. And because there's a washer/dryer, you can go a bit lighter on your packing. Other amenities include hypo-allergenic bedding, bed sheets, an ironing board, and heating.
