Space to Breathe

Take time away from stressful day-to-day life with a break at this self-contained studio, part of a wellness retreat centre in the Cotswolds. On the edge of a 420-acre park, it's an easy way to immerse yourself in nature without the need to camp out. Access to any number of the centre's huge range of classes, treatments and activities gives this stay an extra wow factor. Choose from yoga, massage, botany classes, meditation and more, or just book a couple of hours in the centre's sauna and plunge pool. But you don't have to take advantage of these add-ons if you don't wish to, with a private studio with its own outdoor space and hot tub. The home may be little but it's packed with character, thanks to a charming colour scheme, sloping ceilings, wood floors and comfy furnishings. All open plan, the smart kitchen is fully equipped for you to cook at home and the addition of a sofa bed means it can sleep up to three. Keen walkers can explore the footpaths along the local waterways, while the pretty town of Nailsworth, known for its pretty shops and eateries, is just a five-minute drive.

Home truths:
