Millham Cottages is a luxury Cotswold holiday cottage near Stow-on-the-Wold which sleeps 8+2 guests, in four bedrooms complete with original beams, and the +2 option being a double sofa bed in the living room.

On the ground floor are spacious and well-appointed rooms, with two wood burning stoves for cosy winter breaks and outside a large patio with plenty of seating for summer stays. The cottage has the added bonus of an electric charging point and off street parking.

The Stow Horse Fair is held twice a year, typically on the Thursday closest to 12th May and the Thursday closest to 24th October, however, we would recommend checking the exact date ahead of placing your booking. This is a traditional fair for gypsies and travelling people to meet up and trade which dates back to 1476 when its Charter was granted. Stow is very busy for a day or two before and after each fair, and a number of shops, pubs and restaurants are closed. Whilst many visitors enjoy the colour and vibrancy associated with the fairs, other visitors prefer to avoid Stow on these dates
