Spacious and yet cosy with loads of things to keep all ages entertained for a rainy week. Loved darts, pool, cinema room, hot tub. Could do with a luck of paint in places but perfect for families and dogs

We stayed for 3 nights for a 50th birthday, from the moment we arrived and opened the door we were impressed, the house was spotless and had every amenity we needed, and quite a few more, We were particularly keen on the hot tub which was fabulous, the kids loved the gamesroom and table tennis table as well as the football goals, also watching Glastonbury on the huge screen was almost like being there .. We spent a lot of time in the garden as the weather was good and thoroughly enjoyed every minute of the stay. Wouldnt hesitate to recommend Avalon to anyone who wants a spacious, well equipped and comfortable base to explore the cotswolds or just wants a quiet time away. Plus the owners live close by and were incredibly helpful and quick to reply to any queries we had with the house or just the area in general. Thank you very much for a very memorable weekend

Fantastic house with hot tub, games rooms and plenty of things to do.. Very comfortable beds. House was very clean though dust on top of the fridge and old sock in twin room! Owners were extremely helpful at all times. Showering was tricky as only one proper shower in the house. Could do with another stand up shower as there were 8 adults. Another shower would be great in the garden rooms to help with showering before entering the hot tub. Brilliant media room and we loved the outdoor log burner.

Our family stayed for a long weekend to celebrate a birthday. The cottage was great with plenty of room for all of us, the facilities outside were fabulous catering for ages 3yrs to 75. Lovely walk on Saturday to the Stroud farmers market. Would certainly stay here again.

The house was perfect for a family get together at Christmas.. We were not expecting the house to be decorated, so the Christmas tree, lights and decorations were a lovely surprise when we arrived - as was the bottle of prosecco! We were a group of mixed ages and the hot tub, cinema/games room were great for the kids. A problem with the sound in the cinema room was promptly dealt with by the owners, despite it being Christmas Eve, which was much appreciated. The location of the property was really good - a short walk from a shop so we could pick up any food/drink items as required but also lots of great walks with the dogs in the fields beyond the village and up onto the ridge. I think we will be back!

Recently visited for a weekend away with 9 people.. The Cottage is truly great. Very clean, lovely interior, great facilities. Everyone in the group loved the property. Plenty of space for everyone. Obviously we loved having use of the hot tub, easy to use, spacious and ready to go upon arrival! Didn't make use of the big cinema room or pool table etc due to time constraints but again, great option to have. We were also able to visit Cheltenham which was just over a half hour journey away by taxi. Thanks for a great stay!

Miss Souter

A beautiful, comfortable house with luxurious hot tub, cinema room and games room, a lovely garden all less than a 5 minute drive from Stonehouse train station! This house was perfect for our holiday and the owner couldn't have been more attentive. I would definitely recommend this property.

This was an extremely well equipped holiday home.. Suited our party from 1 -70 years old! The games, TV rooms and outdoor facilities were better than we anticipated. It was good to know the owner were nearby but never intrusive. Would definitely recommend Avalon.
