I’ve stayed in lots of holiday cottages booked through Airbnb and Cottages.com. This is BY FAR the best place we’ve ever stayed! Beautifully clean, wonderfully furnished and cosy, amazing views….and Rob the owner is just fabulous! Super friendly and helpful, we felt like we’d know him for years! I’ve already booked again for next year….in fact I think I’ll be going twice!

Clean and cosy cottage with all the amenities you need. It can get a bit cold at night as we went during the winter, but overall it was a very good stay. The kitchen is spacious, and the living room feels warm and inviting. Rob was lovely and very welcoming. A charming, functional place that we really enjoyed.

The Old Dairy was ideal for 2 couples for visiting cotswolds towns. Everywhere was clean & tidy and well presented. It has lots of interesting information and decorations. Would recommend it as a base for touring the cotswolds.
