A beautiful, cosy and comfortable find in the heart of Lechlade and perfect for accessing the Thames Path. The best cottage we have ever taken as it was like home from home with amenities. Parking wasn’t an issue as nearby roads always had spots available.

The cottage is lovely, very quirky touches and as two couples we found it to be spacious enough to not be in each other's space etc. Loads of little touches, welcome hamper was a lovely touch. The village is cute and we enjoyed the pubs etc. We went to farmers dog and the hawkstone Brewery which was both fab. Would recommend.
