Cotswolds weekend away
A Cotswolds weekend away at a four-bedroom cottage directly on the High Street in Moreton-in-Marsh, 90 minutes by direct train from London Paddington.
A proper weekend
Leave London Friday evening, be in front of a fire by 9pm
A Cotswolds weekend away should feel like a different week, not a different city. Mae Cottage is set up for exactly that: direct trains from London Paddington in about 90 minutes, a 5 minute walk from the station, self check-in, a sitting room with beams and a fireplace, and a kitchen stocked enough to make breakfast on Saturday without thinking about it.
