Knoll Cottage is a well-appointed two bedroom Cotswold stone holiday home, which perfectly blends traditional characterful features with contemporary style. Laid out over four floors with spacious living areas and a superb garden with far reaching views over Blockley Valley, this is the perfect retreat for a luxurious holiday in the historic village of Blockley.

We have stayed at Knoll Cottage four times now and enjoy returning to what feels like a home from home. The village is beautiful and has all the essentials including a very good cafe and shop. There are lovely walks from the house. The beds are every comfortable. I would say that it suits us as we are two friends that go and have one room each and then the living room set up works for us because there are only two of us. It’s not really a living room for four adults as the two chairs are formal chairs and there is one sofa. The kitchen is fairly well equipped with essentials. Parking has never been a problem for us.

I have been coming to Blockley for over 30 years, and have stayed in a number of different cottages there. Knoll Cottage has to rate highly among them for its comfort, charm and convenient location. The beds in particular are very comfortable, and I slept much better than I usually do away from home. It is a great advantage to have a bathroom adjacent to each bedroom. The cottage is very well equipped, the kitchen having everything you could and could not possibly want. We did have a problem with the electric hob, and even after we found the instructions tucked away in a cupboard, thought it was all unnecessarily complicated. What we did not find were meaningful instructions on how to operate the Smart TV. Maybe that is now common knowledge to most people, but not to us, nor are we used to being faced with three separate remote controls. However, we did manage to wade through everything else on offer to find BBC and ITV, so perhaps it will become easier with time. So yes, we did like Knoll Cottage very much and are on the point of booking again.

Booked Knowle cottage for a weekend break. The house was fantastic, perfect location for visiting local towns and villages.
Well equipped, comfortable and a pleasure to stay in, we will be booking again. Had a fantastic time, and locals so friendly and welcoming too! Great cocktails in the cafe!

Knoll Cottage is very comfortable, cozy and warm, loved staying there, visiting family in the area. One thing, the cottage was very well equipped with everything, didn't have any problems with anything but I would have liked an outside washing line or drying rack. Would have been handy because of the hot weather. I didn't come by car, a bit difficult staying here but managed perfectly by using the bus and train instead to several interesting places. Did my shopping in the lovely local shop, having a coffee there as well and often my family drove me around too. I enjoyed the garden and also took some yoga classes in Jubilee Hall. So really enjoyed my time in Blockley and will surely come again in the future!

The cottage was tastefully decorated and the outside patio area welcome in the hot weather. Blockey village was lovely and quiet. Even though we are over retirement age we still coped well with the narrow stairs on top floor. Have only just realised reading other reviews that the freezer was located in shed, perhaps this should be mentioned in the welcome pack. The fuse box tripped twice in 4 days which we resolved but see that this has been a regular comment in other reviews. Advice in the welcome pack about resetting the fuse box would be useful then we wouldn’t have needed to panic! We would recommend the cottage.

Really enjoyed our stay at The Knoll Cottage.
Had everything needed and more, plentiful supply of tea, coffee, sugar. As well as oil, spices, dishwasher tablets, washing powder, toilet rolls, wood for fire, things not necessarily expected or available at other holiday rentals. The welcome bottle of wine was a lovely touch. Everything in perfect working order. The tv was loaded with Netflix etc. The beds very very comfortably and big. The bathroom were perfect, large, beautifully decorated with supplies of luxury toiletries. Beautifully decorated throughout, with lovely touches, beautiful soft furnishings, the pictures don’t do the whole cottage justice. We had some wonderful and challenging walks, from the books provided. Blockley is a wonder quite and quaint village, everyone we met was extremely friendly. The Blockley Cafe had delicious coffee and cakes and very friendly, welcoming staff. The only downside was the stairs, which were exactly as stated in the description, Not to be tackled after the bottle of wine!! Joking aside they are safe, just a little narrow, but with handrails.
Had a really lovely restful stay, 5 stars, would highly recommend. Thank you xx

We are always happy here x however the cottage was absolutely freezing cold 11c heating turned off . No hot water x and a faulty door knob on the front door x only 3 logs for a 5 day stay x one which was to big for the log burner x
After 24 hours we got the lovely cottage cosy once more x
On saying this we would definitely return for our 6th stay x

Superb accommodation. Cottage delightfully decorated and furnished with excellent facilities and equipment with nothing lacking. Great location in a lovely village previously unknown to us. Parking on the road wasn't a problem as we found spaces outside the cottage most of the time. Everything very clean. Good communication with StayCotswold and MyClean.

Our stay at knoll cottage was top quality . Being a traditional house it is based over 4 floors . Each level was clean comfortable and beautifully decorated . We slept in the top floor which had an en suite with bath / shower . The sitting room was warm and comfortable with a fire if you need it but we found the heating very comfortable . Things to remember that this is in traditional village and house , so there are low beams , steep stairs and parking a bit awkward but these are to be expected/ aware but do not deter from the overall experience , summary lovely holiday house in which we would happily book again . There is a village shop and coffee shop a few hundred meters away .

Cute Cotswolds cottage in a quiet village with village pubs and cafe. Really nice local people. Comfortable beds and cosey living room. Easy drives to almost anywhere - we visited Blenheim, Daylesford and lots of the surrounding villages. The Fox (part of Daylesford) was fab atmosphere and food but you are spoilt for choice when it comes to pub lunches.

We absolutely loved staying at Knoll Cottage. As soon as we arrived, we were met with a cosy and warm living room that was a welcome escape from the harsh elements outside. We loved the decor and the quirkiness of the cottage and the views of the valley from the main bedroom were exquisite, especially with the autumn colours. It was easy to feel instantly at home, so much so that we would definitely like to return one day as it really is a special place. The location right in the centre of the beautiful village was also perfect.

We enjoyed a wonderfully relaxing break in Knoll Cottage. The cottage is decorated to a very high standard, and is the most well equipped holiday let I've ever encountered. The village of Blockley is beautiful and is very well positioned for exploring further afield, we met a few of the locals and they were extremely welcoming. Would definitely stay again and highly recommend.

When arrived we were slightly concerned cottage opposite the Crown Hotel & Bar but any concerns soon went - did not hear any noise whatsoever, Blockley as a whole is a lovely village and very quiet ! Knoll cottage is beautiful and it was lovely to sit in garden and enjoy sunset with a drink most nights. Cottage is beautifully decorated and stocked . Can’t fault it one bit.
We only managed to get parked once on street outside during our weeks stay which not ideal - had to park just round corner on the steep hill. Only 100m away and was safe enough.
Would love to return to knoll cottage to further explore the Cotswolds. Definitely a fantastic place and home to use as a base

Knoll Cottage was a perfect place from which to explore the North Cotswolds.
The cottage is beautifully decorated and very comfortable with everything needed for a comfortable self catering break. The garden is lovely - very welcome during the hot week we were there. The cottage is over the road from the Crown Hotel but is still really quite and peaceful in the lovely village of Blockley. Highly recommended!

Can’t get better than Knoll cottage, the place is a family home and you will find it difficult not to feel at home immediately you walk through the front door.

We spent a very pleasant retreat in this adorable cottage in Blockley. The house is situated in a nice village (special mention to Blockley Cafe) and has all the required comfort for long winter by the fire or sunny days in the garden (which was our case). All equipped (dishwasher, washing machine) and with modern facilities (2 bathrooms).
Will definitely recommend staying in this cottage!

Note: ceilings are low especially in the kitchen.
