Cotswolds Retreat

A while ago, I came across Sand and Stone Escapes (previously named Beachspoke), a collection of luxurious holiday cottages, apartments and homes. My boyfriend and I spent our first holiday in this little place in St. Ives, which will forever remain special to us. On the hunt for another wholesome weekend away, we headed back to the collection…

Enter ‘The Firs’, a charming cottage in the heart of Kingham. Mixing contemporary design with traditional interior, the two-story property is great for a group of six. The open plan kitchen and dining room, with large wooden table, is the heart of the house - a space to enjoy lots of good food and drink. The cosy snug, complete with wood-burning stone, is perfect for a lazy afternoon in front of a film. And the bedrooms are beautifully curated with pops of colour, texture and pattern.

While there, I couldn’t help but marvel at the beautiful Cotswolds exterior…

Visit the delightful Wild Rabbit Inn…

Take a trip to Daylesford…

And find a local farm (definitely recommend)!

An all-round lovely weekend. Although the property is no longer part of the collection, I’m already excited for my next Sand and Stone trip - perhaps this one is on the cards…
