A very comfortable cottage in a beautiful location.. Couldn’t fault the facilities provided. Garden, although small was pretty and a sun trap and secure for the dogs. Lovely hosts. Many nice places to visit within easy reach. Would highly recommend and would book again.

This is a great cottage - the only things that could be improved are 1) providing more firelighters and ensuring the lighter has enough lighter fluid, 2) providing a sponge to do the washing up (when not needing the dishwasher) and 3) considering a slightly longer double bed (my other half is over six feet tall).. All in all though a lovely stay, loved the wood burner and the kitchen is incredibly well equipped. Also liked that the plug sockets in the kitchen had USB chargers, really handy! Finally, the welcome gift of chocolates and wine was much appreciated :) We'd happily stay again!

The property was clean and welcoming, nice treats, pretty rural village with nice walks..

Mr Edmonds

Undoubtedly the best designed and equipped cottage in my experience.. Suprisingly roomy---almost Tardis like. Only dislike was that the double bed mattress was too soft and soft edged; but that is my own personal choice. Stairs easy to negotiate and not too steep.Lounge area very comfortable. Enclosed garden small but safe for dogs. Nearest walkable footpaths a little remote and reached along a sometimes busy road with no footpath. Easily found and good off-road parking.

Wonderfully maintained and created Barn conversion with excelent facilities -Ideal quiet location very easy access to eastern cotswolds; local facilities and shops.. We and our two dogs enjoyed a pefect short break --wondeful weather helped --but in any conditions it would be an ideal retreat we shall, probably, return soon

Mr Frost

April 2018

Very well equipped, clean and modern accommodation.. "Treats" on arrival for both the dog and the humans were most welcome. Good TVs, WiFi and even USB charging points. In a relatively remote spot but well placed for visiting much of the Cotswolds, Blenheim, Oxford, Bicester etc. Plenty of local information provided. No major downsides other that the weather wasn't great for April but that's England for you.

Mr Shadbolt

March 2018

Very lovely conversion, very comfortable.. A few more kitchen bits and pieces eg small glasses / tumblers, storage tins etc. but as the place is very new this is as expected. Bathroom / bedroom / lounge all great. Nice touches around home, very thick walls keep out noise. Unsure what building work is going on next door, had vans parked right outside bedroom window most days so may be a problem when work ramps up.

Mr Beese

February 2018

Our only gripe is that the double bed was only standard size.. If you were thinking of replacing the bed I suggest you make it king size, at least. The room's big enough!

Mr Larkin

Immaculate accommodation Dog friendly even left welcome pack of biscuits for our pooches
