Tucked away in a quiet rural village with pub. Great walking and cycling country

LITTLE BARNFIELD is an ideal base in the heart of the Cotswolds for a walking, cycling or exploring break. It's nestled in an unspoilt hamlet with a pub serving excellent food, just a few minutes walk away!
For walkers, there are wonderful footpaths leading from the cottage door and there's safe storage for bikes if you're on a cycling break or there is bicycle hire that will deliver.
The open plan living area is light and spacious with dining area with comfortable leather chairs and the kitchen is well equipped. A spindled staircase leads to the double bedroom with skylight ( perfect for star gazing but with blackout blind if you prefer a lazy morning!) ) Both bathroom and bedroom have a sloping ceiling - a note for taller visitors!
The honey coloured villages of Guiting Power and Upper and Lower Slaughter are very near and it's just a short drive to Stow on the Wold, Bourton on the Water, Chipping Campden and Broadway. Cheltenham is easily accessible, making the cottage a great base for Gold Cup Week. It's about an hour away to explore the dreaming spires of Oxford and some guests arrive having already booked seats for the Royal Shakespeare in Stratford
All of this and at the end of the day a pub serving excellent food is just a few minutes walk away( or 300m ) and open Wednesday to Sunday.
Main grocery shopping is at Stow on the Wold, Moreton in Marsh and Bourton on the Water and Winchcombe.
There is a small grocery store at Toddington 5,3 miles

This is a hidden gem. Tucked away and oh so quiet. Lots of natural light throughout. Our host Anne was gracious, helpful, and even baked fresh muffins and cookies for us. The pub around the corner has some of the best food I have ever eaten!

We had a nice stay overall at Little Barnfield. Though I wouldn’t call it private, as you do share the outside property and interact with the host, (who was pleasant) it was a really quiet and peaceful area with an above-average pub that we dined at a couple of times which you can walk to. Anne, the host, was quick to address any questions or issues, as well as letting us use the washer in the main home as stated in the listing. Great proximity to several Cotswold villages and Sudeley Castle. The cottage had most of the essentials we needed. The shower-head not being mounted anywhere is a bit awkward for a tall person to maneuver — (so no relaxing showers here!) A comfortable bed and full kitchen were the biggest pros. Keeping those factors in mind, I would recommend this stay!
