A quirky and romantic one bedroom dog friendly holiday cabin in the Cotswolds, Vespers is an idyllic place to hideaway with a loved one. Kick back and relax at the hut, listen to the birds singing whilst watching an amazing sunset over the rolling Cotswold landscape, all you will need to add is a glass of your favourite tipple.

Stay with daughter and our dog Teddy

My daughter and myself plus our cockapoo Teddy, stayed in the beautiful shepherds hut which has been well thought out.It and warm and bed so comfy with lovely touches on arrival wine and muffins.Teddy had lots of lovely space to play in including the fields which were wet and boggy but a dog's joy,Because it was in March we did not see another person during our stay and so peaceful.
We were able to visit the Cotswold wildlife Zoo which was dog friendly a great day out, and had a meal at the local pub the swan on Mother's day.
It will be great to see it in the warmer months when we can barbecue down by the river. A lovely stay

I would suggest you book through Airbnb rather than direct with StayCotswold. Reason being the deposit. An extra £150 taken shortly before the stay if booked directly and not returned until a week after the stay. That doesn’t occur on Airbnb even though it’s through StayCotwold.

Now stayed 3x and I would happily buy the place. An absolutely perfect location for us being just over an hour away from home.

Thank you for your review. We are delighted to hear this is your third time staying and you found the location to be perfect for exploring the Cotswolds. The security deposit is only pre-authorised and held against the card, and released 5 days after departure. We hope to welcome you back to the Cotswolds again soon.

Small but perfectly formed

We spent 4 nights at Vespers and absolutely loved it. Very comfortable and with everything you might need or want, even for a longer stay. The hut is very private and the views from the verandah were great; very peaceful and very picturesque. Its a fantastic area and well set up for visiting the rest of the Cotswolds. We really liked Blakes Kitchen and The Double Red Duke in nearby Clanfield. Would certainly recommend and would be happy to go back.

The Sheppards hut is small but 'perfectly formed' and attention to detail is everywhere. The interior has been fitted out beautifully, optimum use of all the space and it feels so welcoming & cosy. The kitchen area is well equipped & lovely to arrive to milk, butter, bread (& wine!), plus all the basics such as salt & pepper, sugar are provided - really thoughtful. Location is stunning & easy to visit other villages, walks etc from there. Such a great place to be with a dog too & great to have the enclosed garden.

For a small holiday let, it takes a lot of beating and 10/10 for just getting it right. Thank you for a lovely few days.

Really enjoyed our stay at Vespers. Lovely sheppards hut. Great views down to the Thames. Lovely walks on the Thames as well. Good pub The Plough at Kelmscott & The Trout Inn at Tadpole Bridge. Very peaceful.

Beautiful setting. Great venue with everything you could possibly need for a stay away from home. Loved the fenced off garden do our dog could run around. My son really appreciated the barn with table football and table tennis. A great pub just up the road and easy access to a load of touristy adventures.(we hired a boat and went up river for a couple of hours). If I’m nitpicking, the Wi-Fi was unusable. If you advertise Wi-Fi then it should be provided with a strong enough signal to use. Luckily I’d downloaded a couple of films onto my laptop prior to the stay as I’ve experienced this before. Other than that we had a blast and would happily return.

Beautiful stay in Vespers! It’s equip with everything you could need for a hideaway weekend yet close enough to walk to beautiful countryside pubs or drive into Burford/Oxford. Would highly recommend and stay again! Thank you! Also, using Stay Cotswolds was easy and would again recommend.

Vespers is a really great place to stay with everything you need. The decoration and layout is perfect, the treats left by the hosts were so appreciated too and made you feel at home.
It's in a great location and we loved being able to walk to the nearby pub and explore the countryside. The lorry by the river is a really cool idea and we enjoyed a change of scenery with some games and drinks by the firepit.
We had a great time and it was made even more special by the fact we got engaged! We'll definitely be back and would recommend it to anyone- thank you.

Second time we've stayed at Vespers, my wife and I plus our 11 year old Springer. Fantastic location with fields for early morning dog walks and all along the Thames for longer river walks. Pub near by but would recommend the longer walk to The Plough at Radstock for lunch outside on a sunny day. The Hut itself is compact, good use of space and has now had the veranda extended down the long side as well as the front so giving a much larger decking area. Since the last time we were there they've also added two sun loungers, some tasteful planters and a bbq so you've got all the essentials provided!

Would definitely recommend for a short break and sure we'll be back again soon!
