Minnow Cottage Overview

If you’ve always wanted to channel your inner Cameron Diaz and escape reality, you’ll absolutely feel like you’re in “The Holiday” in this idyllic Cotswold Cottage. This one bedroom/one bathroom home truly is “an enchanting oasis of tranquility” that is just waiting for you.

Arrival

Getting to the cottage is pretty straightforward. If you fly into London, you can rent a car and drive approximately 90 minutes to Chalford, or there is a bus option. I, personally, would recommend driving as it’s much easier to get around the Cotswolds with a car. 

The Cottage

The cottage is detached with parking in front. There are 3 stories: the lower level is a kitchen/dining area that leads to an outdoor garden area, the main level has the living area with a wood burning furnace and workspace, and the upstairs is where you’ll find the bedroom and bathroom.

If you’re looking for cozy, you’ll definitely find it at the Minnow Cottage.

I've created an online space where I can share my adventures along with tips for anyone who has had the desire to seek adventure, but may have things holding them back. Whether it's financial reasons, or you simply don't have anyone to go with - I'm here to help you get inspired to just go for it and book the trip!
