We were pleased to find a beautiful cottage in a wonderfully quiet and pleasant part of the Cotswolds.. However, a little disappointed that the listing suggested there was a washing machine in the cottage and it turns out that facilities were available to do laundry but it meant involving the owners. Since a booking elsewhere on this holiday clearly stated that facilities were available for a small fee to the owner we were prepared for that and not taken by surprise. The location of this cottage was very suitable for the places we had hoped to visit while in the area so generally we had a very good week in Black Bourton. (No need to mention the lack of washing machine in the feedback.)

Beautiful Cottage, beautiful setting.. Quiet, compact & bijou, so will only accommodate 2 people, which makes for a very cosy, romantic stay. The owners are very welcoming and cannot do enough for you, which adds to the experience.Great for exploring Oxfordshire and lovely to come back to at the end of the day.
