Yew Tree Cottage
Lovely cottage/house warm, plenty of hot water for showers etc. kitchen well equipped
Missing: information and map on local walks. Parking on road can be a problem if neighbours take parking bays before you.As mentioned in earlier reviews cobwebs still in some rooms. Sink dirty in downstairs loo.
Friendly pub just a very short walk up the road

Charming Cotswold stay
This was a comfortable cottage in a great peaceful location for exploring the Cotswolds. It was very well equipped and furnished to a high standard. There was a good local pub open for evening meals.

Perfect Cottage
We had a lovely stay at the cottage. We were a group of 8 with 2 dogs and there was plenty of space. The living room is bigger in real life than in the pictures and houses everyone comfortably in the evenings by the fire. Pub across the road is great and the walk to Stow takes 15-20 minutes. Will definitely be back to stay at the cottage again!

Lovely house well equipped , bedrooms were really comfy but the lounge area was too small for 8 adults and the sofas were not very comfy.
Nice quiet area and not far to stow on the wild which we did a walk to, but overall it is a nice cottage

Yew Tree Cottage
A lovely cottage with 4 double bedrooms and everything you needed for a wonderful stay in a good location
My 3 friends and I appreciated the basic groceries provided and the wood to build a real fire in the comfortable living room.
We would definitely recommend this cottage

Summer break
What a fantastic house to stop in it is the best so far . We will be coming back next year for another great holiday. It was fully equipped with every kitchen appliance. The location was perfect with Stow a mile up the road .The garden was perfect for out door eating. Would highly recommend this property.

A beautiful spacious house
This house is in a great location with lots of beautiful walks on the doorstep . Kitchen is very well appointed with everything you’d need . Slight disappointment was the level of dust and cobwebs , bins overflowing in garden and no mirror , bedside lamps or bedside tables in bedrooms . This place is beautiful but a little more attention to detail would elevate further . Communication , directions and access was easy , overall a fab stay - thank you

Well equipped and comfortable property, worked very well for us for family get together. Extremely comfortable beds, high quality bed linen, generous utensils etc. Lounge a bit on small side for 6 but living kitchen huge.

Had a lovely weekend. Easy paved walk into Stow ( uphill going)
All rooms lovely. Golden Ball across the road.
Spoke to someone about a query during our stay regarding the recycling - very helpful.
Beautiful house, garden and location.

Lovely stay in a beautiful house
Very well appointed property. Just missing a cafetiere but otherwise had everything we wanted. Property has parking for one car with lay-by opposite but this can get very busy so need to bag a space early. Very pleasant, if uphill, walk to Stow.
Overall a lovely stay!

Lovely Cottage in Lower Swell
This cottage is absolutely lovely — beautifully decorated to a high standard with real care and attention to detail. The whole house feels warm and welcoming, with stylish touches throughout.
Everything was spotless and well looked after. You can tell the owners have put a lot of thought into making it a special place.
There is a road outside, but with off-street parking available, it wasn’t a problem at all for our adult family.
Highly recommend!

Great weekend despite the weather!
Well stocked kitchen, comfortable beds, nicely decorated and the location was ideal! Only observation were a few cobwebs up on the vaulted ceilings of the property. Couldn't find a hair dryer and this would be useful. Kitchen cupboard underlighting hanging down.

Beautiful home!
We loved this home and found it extremely comfortable for our family. Somehow I missed the check in email - the only form of communication with the property management group. They were unreachable after 5pm and we found ourselves a bit confused. We figured it out in the end and all was smooth sailing after that. Thank you!

Very disappointing break
Very disappointed with our Christmas break never book with stay Cotswold again
The cottage was filthy dirty, all the bedrooms had dead wood lice all over the floors, main bathroom shower was covered in mould, all surfaces in the kitchen were dirty, fireplace hadn’t been cleaned, no wood for fire, a knife had been left outside on a rack in the garden, wine rack buzzed so had to unplug, downstairs toilet kept over flushing making a constant noise all night, the carpets were filthy covered in stains, arrived in the dark, couldn’t find where the key safe was, it was at the back of the Anex wall, very difficult to get to, no lighting. The cottage wasn’t fit for purpose. Ruined our weekend break, spoke to stay Cotswold when we returned, accused me of not telling the manager of the problem, which is a complete lie, never book with this company again
