A lovely farm cottage set in a quiet rural hamlet ideally located for exploring the local area. Shire Cottage is cosy and quiet 2 bedroom cottage located near the end of a dead end lane with en-suites to both bedrooms. Stone floors downstairs with underfloor heating and wooden floors upstairs.. It has open plan living downstairs with a outside seating area for those sunny days and evenings.

An atmospheric country cottage

Shire Cottage was all we expected, and we enjoyed our stay in the rural setting, just a couple of miles outside Broadway. The accommodation was comfortable, and well equipped, although space in the bedrooms was tight. The one outstanding negative was the creaky floors upstairs, the noise from them enough to waken someone who had retired early. The outside space was also restricted and the outlook was not inspiring.

I'm sorry you found the upstairs floor creaky, its an old farm cottage so we cant alter anything I'm afraid. Same with the outlook! Its a farm cottage looking over the the old farmyard and converted farm building. Glad your stay was good otherwise and you would have seen the layout and house measurements on the floorplan.

My wife and I really enjoyed the cottage. Definitely worth a repeat visit.

The cottage felt like a cottage in the countryside. It had almost everything that you could ask for. My only criticism is that there was no dish drying towels or paper towels in the kitchen.



Wonderful stay

The Perfect cottage for us. It was a freezing few days but the heating was so cosy we didn’t even get to light the fire.
The tea, coffee and milk were a lovely touch and we cooked a few meals and everything was supplied.
The beds were comfortable and bedding lovely.
Close to Broadway and if you like the peace and quiet of the countryside it’s a perfect location.
We would highly recommend a stay.



A great Christmas stay

We came to stay at Shire Cottage for our second Christmas in a row. It was very clean and tidy and well decorated and was a great place to stay, conveniently located for the Cotswolds.



A spacious, well appointed cottage

This quiet cottage had everything we needed for a weekend away. Great to have lots of space and three toilets! It was cool on arrival as the underfloor heating downstairs had not been on for a while, but the wood-burning stove soon made us toasty. After that the heating was fine. A couple of small tweaks would make it perfect - the placemats need replacing as they are in very poor condition; and there aren't any baking trays, just roasting tins.



Excellent accommodation and location

This is a great place to stay in a beautiful location. It is the second time that my wife and I have stayed here but the first time under wellyboot.
The basics of the stay were great as previously, everything you could wish for.
The company let themselves down by small shortfalls.
There was no welcome/introduction sheet. We regularly stay in cottages and this is the first time that I have not seen a sheet with important local telephone number e.g. doctor, or recommended restaurants, or how to recycle.
It was quite annoying to arrive on the first evening to find there was no kitchen roll, cling film or kitchen foil. Small things but things one uses all the time.
As I said great place let down by the letting agent.

One of the best cottages we have stayed in!! Spotlessly clean comfortable, and extremely well equipped. Location in a very quiet rural spot very close to Broadway and all the other wonderful Cotswolds towns and villages. Pat the owner, lives next door and was very welcoming and helpful. Very glad we have found this super cottage!
