My husband and I had a 4 night stay. Cottage is lovely and perfect for us. We were lucky enough to meet Claire and was grateful she had left us a welcome pack. Cottage was in a great location. We were very lucky with the weather and managed to get out on some lovely walks. Would definitely recommend. Hope to come back.

South View is a perfectly situated little cottage, has bags of character and I would strongly recommend to all. The view from the rear of the property is stunning and the field directly behind is home to a number of very friendly, fussy horses.We had everything we needed inside and, despite visiting in early January, we were never cold (especially with the log burner roaring away!). The property is very well kept and clean and is the perfect base for exploring the Cotswolds.We're already planning our next visit later on in the year and have recommended it to family who are also planning a trip to the Cotswolds.
