Find and book the perfect holiday cottage in The Cotswolds

The unique honey-coloured stone is a trademark of The Cotswolds and is what the area is known for, so why not stay in a holiday cottage which is made of this famous material? Nothing will bring you closer to The Cotswolds than the feeling of waking up in a holiday home which is made of this iconic stone, which will allow you to live like a local and step back in time for your stay. With these cottages dotted across the entire width and length of the area, from Chipping Norton to Bath, renting a cottage in this Southern English region will allow you to immerse yourself in this quintessentially British experience, which The Cotswolds is so well known for.

When to go to The Cotswolds

The southern English climate is best enjoyed in the late spring months of May and early June which is before the peak summer holiday season. Alternately, the rainfall should still hold off in September when the leaves turn red, and the fields are harvested which bring a new colour to the traditionally green landscape.
