The location was great, just a short walk to the High Street with a lovely range of shops, pubs, restaurants and hotels to visit. There is also a park area where you can walk your dog close by and a dog field you can hire. Rosemead is well equipped and comfortable, we particularly enjoyed the kitchen/dining area. It would have been handy to have a hairdryer at the property. The dog enjoyed the spacious garden. Rosemead is a short drive from all of the main Cotswolds towns, we particularly enjoyed Bourton-on-the-Water and Broadway. We would stay at Rosemead again if we return to the area.
