Cotswold Life

It will come as no surprise that an area famous for its picturesque landscapes and charming villages, is equally well known for its incredible luxury cottages to rent in the Cotswolds. For those seeking a rental home of the highest standard, look no further than our portfolio of Cotswold rentals. Whether you are looking for a tranquil hideaway or a stand-out, grand country house, the Cotswolds has something to suit your taste.

Discover Beautiful Farmhouses

The Cotswolds history is deeply rooted in farming – a combination of sheep farming, crop production and dairy farms with pasture beef too. It is this rich heritage in farming that means the area has more than its fair share of luxury cottages to rent in the Cotswolds.

One such beautiful property is Pond Farm, Shipton Moyne, within easy reach of Bath and Bristol. This magnificent five-bedroom farmhouse is beautifully styled throughout. With elegant living spaces, sweeping views across 30 acres, and access to a swimming pool and pool house, it offers a refined countryside escape perfectly located to explore the Cotswolds.

Luxurious Barn Conversions

Again thanks to the rich farming heritage, the Cotswolds is home to many exciting luxury barn conversions. Willow Barn nestled in the tranquil village of Shipston-on-Stour, is an absolute secret treasure of a luxury cottage to rent in the Cotswolds. This luxurious property combines traditional architecture with contemporary interiors – vaulted ceilings, exposed beams, and large windows which flood the space with natural light.

Historic Homes

The Cotswolds is also a fantastic place for those who appreciate the allure of a historic home. Here at The Cotswold Letting Agency we are fortunate to have several luxury cottages to rent in the Cotswolds that have a wonderfully elegant history. Reevey House is an impressive country residence, featuring generous living areas, five well-proportioned bedrooms, and a range of outbuildings including a gym and leisure space. Set in a peaceful setting, it offers a rare combination of privacy, flexibility and modern comfort, making it an exceptional home for both family living and entertaining.

Grand Country Homes

For those in search of something truly exceptional, the Cotswolds also offers an impressive collection of large luxury properties, including country homes in village locations that combine space with convenience. As explored in our country houses to rent long term guide, these homes are increasingly sought after for their balance of privacy and accessibility.

Sargent House in the picturesque village of Broadway is a standout example, a substantial seven-bedroom home that blends traditional charm with modern comfort. With expansive living areas, landscaped gardens, and multiple en-suite bedrooms, it is perfectly suited to family life and entertaining, all within easy reach of local shops, cafés and amenities.

Equally impressive is Silver Rill House in Overbury, a striking period home set against the backdrop of the rolling Cotswold countryside. Beautifully presented throughout, the property combines elegant interiors with generous living space, creating a refined yet welcoming home ideal for long-term countryside living. Homes of this calibre are increasingly rare within the Cotswold rental market, particularly in such sought-after village settings.

Stunning furnished short-lets

A luxury cottage to rent in the Cotswolds can be a life saver when it comes in the form of a furnished short let. For homeowners looking for a place to stay between selling and buying their forever home, for families looking to escape the home renovations, or for anyone looking to relocate to the Cotswolds but not yet sure on the area where they want to put down routes, a furnished short let can be the answer. 

Within our portfolio we have cottages to rent in the Cotswolds with a private pool, a thatched cottage with a manageable commute time to London, and an impressive period home with five bedrooms and roaring open fires in the two reception rooms.

We may be biased but we believe you have to go a long way to beat the Cotswolds when you are looking for luxury cottages to rent in the Cotswolds.
