Self catering in the Cotswolds
A self-catering Cotswolds cottage with a kitchen you'll actually use
Mae Cottage is a four-bedroom self-catering Cotswold cottage on the High Street in Moreton-in-Marsh. A full farmhouse kitchen, dining for 10, washing machine and tumble dryer, fast Wi-Fi, a shared rear garden, self check-in. Cook in, eat out, do both. The whole cottage is yours for the stay.

A real self-catering cottage
The whole cottage is yours for the stay
No shared spaces, no breakfast slot, no daily housekeeping interrupting the day. Mae Cottage is a proper self-catering Cotswold cottage: arrive, unpack, put the shopping away, cook breakfast in your own kitchen, walk to dinner if you want to.
For groups of four or more, self catering almost always wins on cost per head, space and flexibility. The cottage sleeps up to 9 across four bedrooms.
Why self catering works here
Set up for genuine self-catering Cotswolds stays
A real, working kitchen
Not the bare-minimum holiday-let kitchen with a tiny oven and four plates. A farmhouse kitchen set up for cooking proper meals for the group.
Breakfast in your own space
Eat when you want, in the cottage or out in the garden. No fixed breakfast slot, no buffet line, no dressing for the dining room.
Set up for longer stays
Washing machine, tumble dryer, dedicated workspace and fast Wi-Fi. Equally suitable for a 2 night weekend and a 10 night stay.
Living rooms for everyone
Two sitting areas across the floors, so the group can split into a quiet read and a film without anyone losing the sofa.
Workable Wi-Fi
Fast Wi-Fi, mesh through the cottage, a desk for any work-from-cottage day. We use it ourselves.
Self check-in
Lockbox arrival on your own schedule. Detailed access instructions sent ahead of time, with WhatsApp support if anything is unclear.
