Very clean and comfortable would definitely return.The pool and snooker table were excellent.Plenty of room, good wifi. Even had electric blankets . Has good size freezer which I didnt expect.Perhaps some softer lighting in the lounge we used bedside light and some more seating in pool area ( only 1 in there)But definitely 5 star

Relaxing short break

This is a lovely place. Incredibly spacious, quiet, and situated perfectly to explore the Cotswolds. The amenities are amazing (we made very good use of the indoor pool - ideal given the heatwave during our visit) and the location is really beautiful. Communication with the hosts was clear and welcoming - we'd love to come back.

Old friends

We were a group of 4 friends who met at University (a long time ago!).We’re spread across the country so this location just off the M40 was ideal. The facilities are great. Where else can you find the exclusive use of a tennis court, swimming pool and a snooker table?! The owner’s communication before and during our stay were first class. Check-in was very easy.No issues at all and you can safely ignore other reviews about the motorhomes causing parking problems -they are blocked parked down the side of the house and off the road. We really enjoyed our stay and would highly recommend!

Weekend with friends

Weekend meet up with University pals… Peters place was a great place for the three of us to cook, eat, drink and also have some fun in the pool, at the snooker table, and on the tennis court! The place had everything we needed, and was clean and comfortable. Peter was friendly and helpful. The house is well suited for some beautiful areas for driving or cycling, and country pubs a plenty. Thanks Peter!

Lovely accommodation with excellent leisure facilities. Having exclusive use of the Pool was great. Full size snooker table was a novelty. Use of the piano was a real bonus. Owner was extremely accommodating. Arriving at the property was a little daunting as the owner stores his excess stock of motor homes on site. It makes for a very busy driveway! Only very slight niggle….. Wish the television had worked properly. Would certainly recommend though
