This was a perfect place to stay! Aurora was perfectly spacious and extremely comfortable with everything you could possibly need. The outside space was a real bonus with the BBQ, fire pit and loungers etc. with easy access to the Thames path and a local pub! We really enjoyed our visit and would highly recommend Aurora as a great place to stay as you will not be disappointed,
We had a lovely family gathering at Honeysuckle House. The house felt like a real home and had everything you need. It’s in a great location with lots of attractions within easy reach. Would definitely recommend.
Excellent property for our extended family. My parents loved the annex and so easy for them being all on one level. We all felt comfortable and at home. Ideal location for visiting the surrounding area. Well equipped property and helpful owners Would definitely recommend
A slight issue on arrival but this was handled in a professional speedy manner by Chris. An ideal apartment for 2 people with everything we needed. Tasteful decor and spotlessly clean. We had the best 3 days in the beautiful village of Stow on the Wold. Free parking and 5 minutes stroll to the village square. An array of bars, restaurants and shops await. We will definitely return.
Lovely accommodation in a fantastic location. The barn was perfect for a couple, everything we needed was provided and of very good quality and was in the he grounds of the owners property. We found it very private and only saw the owners on our arrival. We appreciated the provisions they left for us, including beer from the local brewery. The nearest pub and well stocked general store were only 2 minutes walk away (and another 2 pubs within a mile). We wouldn’t hesitate to book this accommodation again.
Stay Cotswold are a great company to deal with. They appreciate and deliver traditional Customer Service taking personal responsibility for making things happen. Heather was a delight to have looking after our booking. Seymour House is a true delight, with a great host who was extremely welcoming and always responsive to any requests throughout our stay. The new facilities are perfect for a larger group. The grounds are well maintained and well worth exploring. The location is secluded and there very peaceful yet close enough to local facilities and many places worth a visit within a 30 minu...more
The house was absolutely beautiful and catered for all our needs. It was large enough for 12 of us. The tasteful decor was amazing. The location was peaceful with lovely country walks on your doorstep. Can't wait to book again.
We had a brilliant time. The garden and outdoor space was beyond our expectations and really made the holiday for us. Our puppy loved it and could run around happily. We couldn’t ask for more and we hope to return soon!!
We had one week at this beautiful cottage and enjoyed every moment. The house is appointed with the most luxurious furnishings, to the linens & towels, beds & pillows, wonderful kitchen… we couldn’t have asked for more. Immaculately clean and everything felt brand new. The location is absolute perfection, a real center point for all of the beautiful little countryside villages. Do yourself a favour and book in ASAP!
Would highly recommend this cottage , in a beautiful location. The hosts were were helpful along with the notes they provide about places to visit and eat. There is nothing we could fault and hopefully will get the opportunity to visit again.
Beautiful, immaculate accommodation in a stunning location. Everything we needed was there, including a very thoughtful welcome pack full of local produce. Had a wonderfully relaxing week. It’s a little distance from local shops, pubs etc but only a short hop in the car. Very close to lots of visitor attractions and the lovely Cotswolds towns and villages. Helpful hosts who live next door but not at all intrusive. Had a really lovely week, would definitely book again if we were holidaying in the Cotswolds.
The accommodation was fine a short break it was all we required Comment for improvements are that the outdoor furniture is very tired and requires attention.
We had a very nice and relaxing stay in Shaven Cottage which was beautiful and also wonderfully clean and warm and cosy. Driveway is a little bit tight but fine once you're in! Good location and close to a super pub. Thanks for all help and assistance.
It was a delight to stay at Vespers it was clean bright and cheerful, with excellent amenities, and a great private space outdoor. I would have no hesitation about returning or recommending to anyone It was everything we needed great place to stay. John Beaumont
A stunning little cottage just big enough for two. Wood Cottage was spotlessly clean, the bed was extremely comfortable and it was warm and cosy especially with the wood burner at night. We had lovely few days and highly recommend you give it a try.
This holiday cottage for two exceeded all our expectations. The overall quality of the furnishings was outstanding and provided a real home from home. The owners were very welcoming and provided lots of added treats which we have not found in other rental properties, the bathroom is superb and the quality of the linen is excellent. It would be hard to beat this accommodation and we would definitely return if we were visiting this lovely area.
Lovely cottage, great villlage location. We had everything we needed for a family stay. Would recommend cottage and area to others.
The Reading Room cottage was lovely! Very clean and modern with that beautiful Cotswold stone and a spacious garden. It feels like a steal for the price. A relatively well-lit sidewalk takes you a short 10 minute walk to Burford, which is incredibly charming (and not touristy at all in October!). And a delicious pub - the Carpenters Arms - is just steps away. It was a fantastic base to explore the Cotswold countryside!
We had a wonderful stay. The views from High Barn are stunning. The rooms are all good sizes and both barns are well equipped. The strawberries and wine in the fridge were a welcome touch, along with a few other provisions. Our Grandchildren loved the large garden and the available football field complete with goal posts. We were also able to do some paddle boarding on the river, my son had bought his board but there were also some available. Overall, we had a fantastic stay and would happily return.
This was the perfect venue to celebrate a 60th Birthday with family. Accomodation was immaculate and spacious. Everything we needed was provided on site. The party room was perfect for our event and the huge paddock area was ideal for the children. We booked the whole venue and had the most fantastic time.
The Farmhouse is a lovely spacious property, in a great location in the Cotswolds. We enjoyed family time chatting, cooking and eating together in the Farmhouse, and visited a number of great places nearby; Bourton on the Water, Broadway, Sudely Castle walk, Chipping Camden walk, Cotswold Wildlife park. We especially appreciated all the special touches that were provided at the Farmhouse for our stay. Thank you!
Please don't stay here. Otherwise it may not be available for me! Just the most stunning house and location. The Stay Cotswold team, the owner and the house keeper were fantastic throughout. One of our best staycations ever. Will definitely rebook.
Brook cottage was a lovely place. The cleanliness was super, the cottage super cute, we loved the location, close to oxford, close to blenheim palace and close to cotswold in all its greatness. We saw foxes, deer, rabbits and squirrels. We made lovely walks with the dogs to the Thames through fields and meadows... A good mirror in the bedroom would be nice, so lady’s can check there outfit before mr. Darcy comes for a cup of tea..
Fantastic location, tucked away so quiet. Comfortable accommodation with every need catered for. Parking close and convenient.
We had a really enjoyable week at the Brewery which was very spacious and incredibly well appointed. The location was perfect, with plenty of good options to eat in very close proximity. Burford itself was also a fantastic place to stay and we were easily able to visit other local towns and villages from this base. We particularly enjoyed a day trip to Cheltenham. We would love to stay again!
Beautiful and comfy rooms. Decor is lovely, very modern. Lovely surroundings and perfect location. Customer service is amazing also, thank you for a wonderful stay. We will definitely be back.
Lovely, spacious apartment in a good location in bustling Burford. The apartment was very clean and well appointed. Located above a high street shop but set a little back from the front the only down side was constant traffic noise in the master bedroom.
The house was amazingly well equipped and very high spec, seemed to be brand new. Huge bedrooms, power showers, loads of hot water, spacious en-suites, massive comfy beds, really very luxurious for our family group. Took a bit of working out how to master the radiators but they were super efficient. Good parking. A good Autumn house as we did not miss the fact that there is no garden.
We had a brilliant week at Tadmarton Grange Cottage. It was the perfect home away from home, with everything we needed. I would definitely recommend.
We had a lovely weekend stay at Rose Tree Cottage to celebrate some milestone birthdays in our family. It was the perfect venue for our party which included toddlers and seniors too. The owners have created a lovely holiday home and it was well thought out, clean, comfortable and the garden is really lovely. We look forward to a return visit.
We stayed in The Barn. The accommodation is very spacious and is extremely well appointed and equipped. We arrived after a long flight from South Africa and were very pleased to see all the necessary little things like coffee, tea salt and pepper, dishwasher tablets, surface cleaner etc. The place is spotless, the beds large and comfortable and the towels are white and fluffy. The setting is beautiful and peaceful with a large lawned area outside where our grand-children enjoyed kicking a ball etc. Close by there is a co-op in Stanford-in-the-Vale and approximately 10mins away in Faringdon ...more
We had a lovely stay in the Old Brewery House, perfect for 4 couples plenty of space. The kitchen was very well equipped and we made good use of it cooking a celebratory birthday dinner. Our contact Andy was very helpful and informative about the property and we all agreed that we would not hesitate to stay there again. StayCotswolds were excellent, as we had to change the date of our original booking due to the COVID restrictions, so a thank you to them for a seamless transfer.
Excellent property. Cooking facilities outstanding and everything you would need from an equipment point of view. The apartment is very well laid out and spacious and has very comfortable furnishings including the beds. Although it is a busy village square, parking was never a problem and we didn't have to use the car park at the end of the street. A good base for exploring other towns and villages and plenty of walking nearby. While we have been to various parts of the Cotswolds in the past, we discovered Burford Garden Company - wow - what a place - not your normal garden centre but if y...more
Last minute booking. Lovely hosts and lovely place - dog friendly and clean. We’ll kitted kitchen. Had a lovely time.
A delightful cottage in a super location let down badly by cleaning standards; sticky dining room table, dirty toilet, dirty dishes in the cupboard, lots of dead flies on floors and window sills, coffeecup marks on side tables and dirty windows. It is a shame as all these things could be easily have been avoided with more diligent cleaners or a supervisor inspection.
Our extended family and friends enjoyed this well presented house. The rural location was perfect and the large secluded garden was perfect for the little ones to get rid of energy safely. With every bedroom having its own en-suite is considered a luxery that most properies cannot claim. Our contact Andy, was quick to answer any queries we had, even bringing the charcoal for the barbecue when we needed it. Its rural location hides the fact that it is very near to the Cotswold wildlife park, Stow on the Wold and many other picturesque villages close by. We had the family with us for three ...more
Heron Barn was perfect for our annual get-together and we'd love to return. The living and dining areas are so cosy and beautifully decorated and the kitchen is well equipped and large enough for lots of people to prepare food together. The bedrooms are very comfortable with crisp white bedding and thick duvets - if anything, they were too warm and we only realised at the end of the weekend that we could have removed one layer. We enjoyed long, leisurely breakfasts outside in the delightful courtyard and were thrilled to spot hummingbird hawkmoths on the verbena flowers. There are lovely w...more
Very spacious property. Great location. Was really well cleaned and had everything you needed. Have already booked for next year.
The house was so well cared for and immaculate. We could relax as soon as we entered the house. Thoroughly enjoyed the games room and hot tub. Location is beautiful for walks, visiting and bike riding. Had a wonderful 3 generation family break.
The cottage is cosy and homely and well equipped with great indoor and outdoor space, which worked really well for us when travelling with dogs. The walks from the doorstep are amazing and the maps provided were appreciated, we did the 7 mile river loop twice in two days (quick pub stop on the way home!) and then had a very sleepy dog in front of the log burner! The properties are close to each other as described but you aren’t overlooked directly and we rarely saw the neighbours. A minor detail - we would have liked the BBQ to have been available to use with our own charcoal (the booking si...more
We had a week long stay at Ready Token Cottage and what a stay! The images on the listing are incredibly accurate and the cottage was spacious and beautifully decorated. Arrival was easy with directions provided and access to the property via key safe so no having to liaise with the owner to agree arrival times which can be difficult to judge. The property was warm during our stay and perhaps just would have benefitted from slightly larger hot water tank or heating time but I showered first so more an issue for my husband haha! There were some chocolates provided on arrival which was a nice ...more
A new property, perfect for three couples or a family. Good location for exploring and short walk to super pub which serves food. Fully equipped kitchen/ eating area. Good size double bedrooms, all with lovely en-suite. Small but useable garden and parking at rear and on road. We used the log fire as first day couldn’t work out central heating controls. Easy to get going and quickly heated the room. Lounge is so very comfortable with high quality furniture. Separate TV lounge ideal for quiet getaway or TV/gaming. Again quality furniture. We assume board games not provided due to Covid. We ...more
A real gem in the heart of Moreton in Marsh. Cosy,clean,and stunning. With a hot tub what a bonus. M
The Stables offers very comfortable and spacious accommodation. It’s very well appointed and we had everything we required during our stay. There is plenty of outside space and it’s located in a very peaceful setting. We would like to return and would definitely recommend.
We were in the middle of a difficult house sale and completion dates kept changing. We booked Fairfield cottage not only because it was very convenient but because Stay Cotswold have by far the most customer friendly booking system. We had to change dates twice but thanks to the help and cooperation of Stay Cotswold and Jaime Gould in particular , we were able to do this secure in the knowledge that we will get a full refund (minus booking fee) for the cancelled dates. This is in sharp contrast to other booking agents. I would be happy to recommend this company and would certainly use them a...more
We had an enjoyable stay at this well appointed barn conversion, it is well equipped and comfortable, the garden is lovely and improved from previous years and the outside furniture and large table are very convenient.
This is a lovely property. We had a couple of issues, most notable was the dog hair. It was on the bedding, carpets etc. The property had obviously been cleaned, but if you are going to allow dogs then you have to clean better than that. I like dogs, I don't want to sleep in other peoples dog's hair. Also, I had requested twin beds for the children and their bed was made up as a double. I managed to split them myself and just about find anough bedding to do the first night. Oh, and there was no washing up liquid or dish cloths, the kind of things that you would expect to just be there. Havi...more
Everything was clean and comfortable, and the location was really quiet. Well equipped kitchen, and everything as it said it would be. However, we were unhappy with the television, which was advertised as a Smart TV, but it was not made clear in the information that you had to have a BBC iplayer account and an ITV account, and a means of signing into those accounts on another device before you could watch any TV. We were not able to watch live ITV at all whilst we were there, only BBC, and old programmes on hub ITV. We contacted the owner, and he said you needed to log on via a browser, which ...more
Only drawback was a fan noise that was very loud at night, particularly in twin bedded room. Sounded like a mighty storm enough to keep occupants awake. We couldn’t find out what or where it came from. Otherwise all good.
Colin was a great cottage for exploring the cotswolds, it was comfortable and had a great kitchen setup with everything needed. Finding parking was difficult, Burford is a busy town so spaces were often full and parking near cottage is either parallel or on a hill. It is all free however which was good. The bed and furniture were comfortable and overall I had a great solo trip away.
We had an enjoyable stay at this property. It’s in the centre of the town but the setting is quiet and peaceful. The property is well equipped and very comfortable.
Wendle Cottage is a lovely cottage in a good location to get to other villages in the Cotwolds. The cottage is great for adults, little kids and older people might struggle with the stairs. Parking is also quite tight for larger cars but there is a Market car park just round the corner, 2 minutes away and very reasonably priced. We had a great stay here.
We had a wonderful family stay at Upton Downs. The house is spacious and very comfortable and having the farm shop and smokery next door was great. The garden is huge and the toddlers loved running around and picking apples. There were a few essential things missing: no towel rails or toilet roll holders in any of the bathrooms. No large bowls for salad or pasta and no salad spinner. Having these would have made our stay even better.
Very comfortable, well appointed barn conversion in a nature reserve near the Thames path. The outdoor area around the barn is superb with plenty of space for children to run and a tyre swing. It also has a barbecue (you need to get charcoal) and comfortable outdoor furniture With lovely view over the meadows. It is in the middle of nowhere so you need to be prepared fo drive on single track roads with minimal passing spaces. There are great pubs nearby. A few specific comments for the owner/manager: The fridge handle needs fixing. It is very difficult to open. The showers get slippery...more
A great weekend away in a lovely secluded location with a beautiful view! Plenty of parking, and great garden space!
A comfortable property for 4 adults, well presented and in a quiet location. However, it could be improved by fitting an over-bath shower in the bathroom and by increasing the holding of the number of cups and glasses as with 6 of each it requires either increased washing up or dishwasher cycles.
The cottage was spacious, comfortable and well equipped. The location was good as it is near most local attractions.
Cottage was in a fabulous location close to Cirencester and Bath. Excellent facilities in the cottage everything you need for a comfortable stay xxxx
We’ll equipped cottage in great location for exploring the Cotswolds. Very comfortable bed. Sofa, as noted by other guests, is very uncomfortable - our only criticism.
Found difficulty in locating the property as the name Maize was not displayed. We were disappointed with the kitchen facilities for self catering, would have been better with a hob and pans for cooking full meals rather than just a microwave oven. insufficient cooking utensils, peelers, large jugs, draining spoons, boards etc. Coffee pot and teapot only suitable for one cup not for two people. No towel rails in bathroom and no heating there so towels don't dry.
Beautiful Cottage in a wonderful location but having necessary amenities nearby - shop, pubs. Area great for walks and for discovering the Cotswolds
The bedrooms were excellent, although the bed in the smaller double room was slightly too small. The stairs are a challenge for both old and young folks, so need some care when using. The only shower is located within the kitchen, which meant a daily queue and lacked a little privacy. The garden was in a poor state and the path to the larger part of the garden not particularly child or pet friendly, with overhanging branches and too easy access to the neighbour's garden. Both garden spaces could use some TLC. The location and village is wonderful, with a friendly & convenient local shop a...more
Meadow cottage was a conveniently located cottage tucked away down a quiet country lane. We stayed for 7 nights and it was for 2 adults, a 3 year old and a dog. Although the cottage can sleep six we would say it would be “cozy” if fully occupied mainly because there was only one bathroom but for us this was fine. The main points we would make to improve the experience would be as follows:- 1. A microwave in the kitchen would have made our lives a lot easier having a toddler 2. The down light led lighting was constantly flickering to the extent we have to turn off. 3. A comment on ano...more
Great place to explore the Cotswolds. The house is very well depicted in the photos and the garden is really nice. Only issues were that some of the light bulbs could do with being changed and there is a small leak in the conservatory roof when it rains hard
