Welcome tray with flowers and milk tea and coffee was thoughtful. The bed was king-size and comfortable. The sofa a 2 seater opposite the TV was not so comfy as its had more use but a minor issue. Helpful owner on hand if required was re- assuring. Overall an excellent location clean great property to stay.

Itâs so quiet and peaceful that I felt fully rested by the end of the week. The house is well organised and everything I needed for a home from home was there. The Cotswolds is a beautiful place and Iâll definitely be back.
