The property was quaint and unassuming from the outside, fitting perfectly with its surroundings, inside was stylish and cosy, a perfect blend of comfort and old world charm.. Sonia the owner has an impecible eye for detail and every single fixture and fitting is well thought out. There is a fabulous kitchen but if you dont want to cook, the Eagle is walking distance and the food is superb. You can also order takeaway, so it feels rural but you have all modern conveniences. We hope to visit again.

Lovely cottage, very clean and well equipped.. We did have a few problems, and unfortunately the owner was away, she was very helpful via text though, and we have sent a private message regarding a few issues but this definitely wouldn’t stop us staying at this cottage again as it was perfect for families or friends travelling together and in a good position to discover the Cotswolds.

This was a very nice and extremely comfortable cottage of a very high specification.. The owners were friendly and happy to provide extra logs for the wood burner but also discreet and made it feel extremely private.
All in all a wonderful place to take a break.

The cottage was enjoyable but felt that it could have been slightly better in the following respects:
Lack of information and operational instructions.. Could have done with an information book rather than all piled into a draw with loads of attraction leaflets.
Oven and fridge could have been better cleaned.
The washbasin in the downstairs bathroom was leaking.
These are not terribly negative things and are meant to be constructive.
They didn't spoil our stay which, as I say, was thoroughly enjoyable

Nice property in excellent location
Impressive range of equipment and appliances - (no chopping board)
Good enclosed small garden for the dogs and off-road parking right outside the property
Niggles
Shower was broken – (not the right head for the shower (not enough pressure))
Toilet seats need tightening
Gate needs adjusting as very heavy to keep lifting up to shut
No internet available for our whole stay – connected to wifi - but no internet
We found the sofas uncomfortable
