Couldn't ask for more
This cottage met all our needs, from off-street parking to a garden sitting area and a light-filled house with everything we needed. Grrat location for exploring the Cotswolds, a helpful and responsive owner, and the lovely cooing of woodpigeons. Could not have asked for more!

Very enjoyable stay
Lovely cottage in a great location. We managed to do lots of day trips during our weeks stay. Host was great, communicated with us before during and after our stay, advised us on places to visit and made us feel v welcome, there was even a bottle of wine waiting on arrival which was a lovely touch . We had an issue with an outdoor wasps nest whilst we were there and she dealt with it quickly and efficiently . Cottage was well stocked with everything we needed and more, from cleaning products to herbs, spices etc in cupboards. Would definitely return and would highly recommend to others. Many Thanks Sue ☺️.

Wonderful cottage
After being let down at short notice by our reserved accommodation, this was a fantastic find and we highly recommend it. Speedy and reassuring communication from Sue all the time. Great location, within walking distance of 2 pubs, safe parking, peaceful but within easy reach of all that the Cotswolds has to offer.

SUPERB
First impressions - wow, we were overwhelmed. This stunning cottage had everything we wanted, my parents who are in their 80's could not stop smiling. Perfect stay. We are 1000% booking again. Thank you for a nice relaxing weekend.

Great Location
The cottage was very comfortable and equipped with everything you could need. The location is great for exploring the Cotswolds. Unfortunately there was a very annoying ongoing issue with the hot water. We arrived to find a note from a plumber that explained a process we needed to follow in order to get hot water but it didn’t always work and we needed to reset the boiler numerous times. I did complain to the owner as I thought we should have been informed of this in advance. She disagreed with me and didn’t seem to think that it was a problem at all. Not really what you expect for £200+ per night. All in all we enjoyed our stay and would go back…..but not until the hot water problem was resolved!

Knusse woning
Zeer knusse woning voorzien van veel gemakken. Het huisje is erg gezellig ingericht, met een ruime woonkeuken en grote eettafel, een gezellige woonkamer met open haard en boven twee ruime slaapkamers en twee badkamers. Enige wat misschien goed is om te weten is dat er enkel toiletten boven zijn! Oh, en neem je eigen koffie mee. Er is wel een koffiemachine, maar geen koffie ;). Al om al, erg fijn!

Fijne uitvalsbasis om de Cotswolds en omgeving te ontdekken
Goede locatie, ruime cottage, veel voorzieningen ruime tuin waarin de kinderen zalig gespeeld hebben. Strategische locatie om veel te bezoeken: Oxford, Blenheim, Stratford Upon Avon,... Enkel jammer dat de gordijnen vrij doorschijnend waren, de kinderen waren daardoor vroeg wakker...
