Hallelujah

Part of a converted church, this eccentric home in the Cotswolds has oodles of personality. The design is delightfully quirky, especially upstairs – bright pink and teal stripes are painted on the walls and an abundance of frames with surreal, vibrant art prints hang by the stairs and above the dining table. We love every colourful inch, but our favourite part is the living area. Conservatory skylights flood the room with sunshine, making it a great place to come together for meals and movie nights. Speaking of meals, the separate kitchen has everything you need to rustle up a feast, plus a bar-top table where you can enjoy breakfast before hitting the town. This home is sure to put a smile on your face, but the biggest grin of all comes from the excellent location. You're right in the heart of Stow-on-the-Wold, one of the Cotswolds must-see market towns. With cobbled lanes and honey-coloured stone houses, this chocolate-box village is overflowing with character and history. Everything you'll need is mere moments from your doorstep, be it cosy pubs and delicious restaurants to local shops and charming tea rooms. What can be better than that? Home truths: *This home can sleep 4 guests, plus 1 infant – you’ll need to bring your own cot and high chair *There's free on-street parking a short walk away *The nearest train station is in Moreton-in-Marsh, a short taxi ride away – we suggest pre-booking your taxis *This home has a steep, winding staircase that may not suit young children or those with limited mobility *Mobile phone reception is patchy *This home has a private entrance, but no outside space *The smoke and CO detectors operate on a sound-only basis *The dining table can double as a laptop-friendly desk *Stow Horse Fair is held in May and October (please check specific dates) – it will be very busy and some local amenities will close
