Lovely place to stay in the Cotswold. Woody met us on arrival and was very helpful detailing the facilities and how everything works. The cottage is very clean and comfortable. There is road noise but it didn't affect the quality of our holiday.

One of the best properties we have stayed at. Clean, warm, comfortable (especially the beds!), charming and welcoming host, and a great location for sightseeing and walking. The hot tub is a lovely perk in any weather. No loos on the ground floor (off the bedrooms upstairs), so may not be suitable if guests have mobility issues.

The cottage is lovely, very clean and well equipped and great to have 2 en-suite bedrooms. Lots of provisions too, bottles water, wine, cans of coke and milk on arrival. Only downside is the road, very busy and noisy and about an 18 min walk to Bourton on the Water along the busy road. Great hot tub and private garden.

If going into Bourton on the Water ( lovely village) take the 1st right at the landrover garage into The British Legion car park 3.00 to park all day. In the village it's 90 minutes free the traffic wardens are keen. Also in thRead moree village there's a lovely Artisan bread shop over the bridge.
