This cottage is the first one which provided absolutely everything we needed. It was spotlessly clean & the heating was great, particularly as it snowed during our visit. It is small but there is plenty of room for 2 people to be comfortable & enjoy their visit. The owners are extremely pleasant & helpful.

The property was clean and well appointed with a lovely treat on arrival. Situated in a cute Cotswolds village it was the perfect location for exploring rural Cotswolds & urban Oxford. The village was charming & the villagers also. The property had modern fixtures & fittings, it was small but perfect for a solo guest or couple. There is a Lidl nearby for groceries & plenty of places to eat out of preferred. Faith was very friendly and helpful with advice & tips on what to do during our stay and always said a cheery hello. Thank you for making our trip to the Cotswolds so comfy.
