Comfortable cottage
A cute cottage with a good location. Many great eating places very close by. The cottage has everything you need for a comfortable stay. The stairs are challenging but only because of my age and reduced mobility

Amazing Abbots Cottage
We loved our stay at Abbots Cottage. It’s a beautifully restored cottage in a small charming town with every modern convenience. Very comfortable, quiet at night and just a charming place to stay. There are restaurants, bakeries, groceries and shopping within very short walking distance. Highly recommend!

Lovely cottage in a cute village
We really enjoyed our stay. The cottage was perfect and had everything you would need for a weekend. We liked that the village was a more quiet one with less tourists around than the main famous Cotswold villages. Had some great food in pubs just a minute walk away. 10/10 would recommend.

Christmas Get Away
Had a lovely break at this cottage, great location! I worked a few days and then had some time off. Only faults I’d give would be that a few more basics being available would have been nice, more than one tea towel and hand wash/moisturiser by every sink. Also a coffee machine would be a bonus addition, I love to support local businesses of course but staying for a week and having 2/3 coffees a day adds up! Would definitely stay again, thank you

Gorgeous property
Property was gorgeous and it was a mostly excellent experience.
Positives
- great location
- kitchen utensils well stocked
- clean and comfortable
Improvements
- no wifi - password has been rubbed off
- could provide more toilet paper
- could provide olive oil (or any cooking oil)
- shower area leaks if water gets out of the tub
Unfortunately when we messaged our contact about the wifi and leaks we did not receive a response (and still haven’t weeks later).

Had a wonderful stay at Abbots cottage
We had a wonderful family holiday in Abbots Cottage, with our 2 small children (aged 5 and 2). The cottage is even more beautiful than the photos and felt warm and cosy. We would love to come back. As a suggestion we would like to suggest perhaps installing a coffee maker, we missed that a bit. For the rest everything was fine!

A wonderful stay at a lovely cottage
Stayed here for a week and absolutely loved it. It was beautiful with modern amenities, in a lovely village right next to all the attractions. Would recommend this stay to anyone. Be mindful that there's no shower, only a bath.

A lovely winter break
We enjoyed our stay very much. The cottage is lovely. Comfortable beds. Very warm cosy and well laid out rooms. The bathroom is small but just as photos show, and is managable, and there is a downstairs loo as well.

Top notch commodity
Excellent stay in a cosy cottage, super nice neighborhood, and close to every useful commodity. Super valuable in such a beautiful area.
Well presented period cottage in attractive village.
Convenient location although parking limited,bathroom a challenge for less mobile or elderly,might be worth considering conversion to wet room/walk in shower.
