Spent the start of the week having a long-overdue mini-break with my husband exploring the Cotswolds. Thanks so much to Cotswolds Hideaways, we stayed in the most wonderful little Shepherds Hut which was idyllic and peaceful and in the perfect location for exploring the quaint little villages nearby. We booked via their sister company Glamping Hideaways who were so helpful and everything was so straightforward.It was the most wonderful break and feeling refreshed and grateful! Would really recommend staying here and checking out their wonderful properties!
