A little cottage in the Cotswolds

Piccolina

The story

Why Piccolina.

Piccolina — “little one” in Italian — is the name my husband has called me for years. It felt only right for our little home in the Cotswolds.

The bedroom, with linen blinds and a beam overhead

Sleep beautifully

We care about good sleep.

Four Seasons cotton linens and bedding. Screens for open windows, blackout blinds for dark bedrooms.

The powder room, with an antique stone basin

Getting ready

A few comforts.

Soft cotton robes, towels, bath and body products, plus a hairdryer. For your walks, there are a few pairs of boots, umbrellas and rain ponchos. Books and games for when you’d rather stay in. Water bottles and yoga mats are here too.

The second bedroom, used as a study

A little movement

Make time for yourself.

A little space to stretch, lift a few weights or move at your own pace. No schedules, no rush.

Our home while we’re here, and yours while we’re away.

We hope you settle in, sleep deeply, muddy your boots and leave wondering when you might come back.

How we like to spend our days.

Two weekend bags in the back of a Land Rover on a country lane

A long walk

Boots on for one of our favorite walks. A pub waiting at the end. The kind of day we never tire of.

A rainy day

A book left open, something warm to drink. Nowhere else to be.

A slow evening

A little aperitivo at home, then a wander out for dinner whenever we get peckish.

Our notes

Our favorite corners of the Cotswolds are found on the walks we take and in the places we always go back to.
