Sheperd's huts must be the most honest, authentic way of sleeping in the Cotswolds. Very close to Witney, that Mom and Pop feeling of a small pub who kindly and hospitably host you. The best way to travel, definitely.

The huts are really lovely - way nicer than I was expecting, and much more interesting that your standard hotel room, comfortable and well equipped with very decent showers. Waking to the sound of birds and nothing else was a treat. Breakfast in...
