The Old Tractor Shed, Cheltenham - sleeps 12 guests in 5 bedrooms

Simple elegance meets rustic charm when it comes to this cosy Cotswold hideaway. Situated in the heart of Gloucestershire, and just a stone's throw from Cheltenham, where centuries of history lie waiting to be discovered, The Old Tractor Shed is your bolthole for an unforgettable Cotswold stay. Whether you're an avid walker, keen cyclist or seasoned foodie, this special spot offers the best of both town and country life.

Set over two floors, The Old Tractor Shed welcomes you with a light, airy entrance hall before you're met with a charming living/dining area that forms the beating heart of the home. Here, a dining table for twelve sits under a thick beam that only adds to the charm of this place - complete with a bar and open fireplace, this majestic room only gets better. The kitchen is bright, airy and classically Cotswolds complete with a breakfast table and ample space for rustling up local produce or sipping on organic cider from nearby farm shop and taproom, Dunkertons. Spend evenings in the sitting room, perching in front of the finely crafted wood burner - the most comfortable spot to sink into a book or chat with friends and family to the sound of crackling flames.

Just a few footsteps from the property lies direct access to the breathtaking Cotswold Way, which you can follow for miles of majestic walks through The Cotswolds' symphony of scenic woodlands, weaving pathways and vast common land. When you get peckish, grab a drink and food at one of the glorious pubs in the area where popular spots include Winchcombe, Stow-on-the-Wold and Bourton-on-the-Water - all within a short distance from The Old Tractor Shed.

Living/Dining Area:
The Old Tractor Shed's living/dining area is the heart of this considered hideaway. The natural light flooding in through the floor to ceiling windows with french doors amplifies the neutral and stylish decor. This magnificent space also features a bold and bright bar right by the open fire place. Even in its most contemporary moments, the building's heritage never seems far away - the room proudly flaunts its original exposed beams. The perfect spot to gather together, the dining table is the centrepiece of the vast room - complete with twelve spaces for everyone to enjoy some local delights.

Ambient evenings await with The Old Tractor Shed's welcoming snug/sitting room, where a wood burner crackles away and a large three-seater sofa and two armchairs invite you to rest and relax in good company.

Loved it
We had an absolutely wonderful stay! The home was spotless and beautifully maintained, making it easy to relax and settle in. The location couldn’t have been better—lovely, scenic walks right nearby and the most charming fluffy cows as neighbors, which our family adored. It was the perfect spot to unwind and enjoy quality family time. Visiting in autumn was magical with the stunning colors all around. Thank you for a memorable getaway; we hope to return!

10 stars!
If I could this rental 10 stars I would! The home was absolutely beautiful, you could tell the owners put great thought and care into the property. It truly felt like a home away from home, with small thoughtful gestures like a baby gate for our small children and fresh eggs! The owners are extremely nice and accommodating! We will 100% be back! Great location to Cotswolds villages as well.

All We Could've Hoped For
We had a wonderful 10 night stay in The Old Tractor Shed which does not feel at all old when you walk through the door. Everything is very fresh and new. Fabulous sized boot room for all the coats and shoes which is very necessary considering the vagaries of the British weather this summer. Several times we came back to the house with dripping coats and soggy shoes - thankfully we did not need to trail anything through the cottage. Well appointed kitchen with all that we needed. Extremely sharp new knives which were a delight to use. Usually have to sharpen the knives wherever we stay. Bedrooms were lovely. Very comfortable beds. Bathrooms beautifully fitted with good sized showers and good-sized towel radiators. Very sheltered and pretty courtyard for sitting out on the days that were good. Close in to Cheltenham and all the restaurants there. Loved discovering the cider and other produce at Dunkertons Cider Shop which is just down the hill from the cottage.
