The cottage was extremely clean and spacious with a great garden to relax and watch the children play. It is in a fantastic location, just a short walk in to Bourton, although it is a steep walk back up the hill. The hosts were very accommodating with excellent communication throughout. Would recommend a visit. ### 8/10 Good #### Julie M. 23 Jul 2025 Liked: Cleanliness, check-in, communication, location, listing accuracy A lovely property in a great location. Bedrooms are comfortable and you virtually have everything that you need in the property. The kitchen would benefit from having a microwave and some hi-ball glasses. I was reluctant to use the oven as it looks like it needs a good clean. Cobwebs need cleaning from the skylight windows and the ensuite bathroom. ##### Julie M.

The beautiful, cosy and picturesque cottage made for a wonderful homely stay, equipped with an absolutely stunning Christmas tree! The cottage was clean, lots of information provided, great location & walking distance into Bourton On The Water and comfortable furnishings. The hosts were lovely and so helpful! We loved visiting this Cotswolds escape & we’re hoping to return next year!

The cottage was everything we had hoped for. It was well appointed, great location.. a short walk to Bouton on the water where we found some greet pubs and places to eat. The maze is a must - great fun even for adults! We were all very sad to leave and I wouldn’t hesitate to book again . ##### Rebecca B.

Very steep hill coming back from Bourton to get back to the cottage. Cottage very dog friendly. Everything we needed. A little starter pack would have been ideal. Toilet downstairs aswell which was ideal. Mattress and pillows extremely soft. Nice family feel to the cottage. Owners approachable and friendly. Will be re booking. This review comes from a trusted partner site and has not been verified. ### 8/10 Good 13 Dec 2023 #### Lovely cottage Amazing location only about a 10-15minute walk into Bourton, but be aware it is uphill on the way back. The oven trays and the coffee machine need a clean, but all of the glassware and crockery were fine. Overall a lovely cottage and great value for money, perfect for what we needed on a long weekend. In Bourton we would highly recommend The Croft for breakfast or a mulled wine, and The Cornish Bakery for a coffee and pastry!

Great location for Bourton-on-the-Water, Burford, Cirencester etc. We stayed at the cottage as we had a family wedding in Burford which is only a short drive away. Bourton-on-the-Water is a beautiful village, lots to do and see. The cottage has rustic charm with lots of great features i.e. an abundance of plate and glassware and nice touch having a canteen of cutlery for use. The cottage on the surface was fine; however, it is a bit tired and would benefit from a deep clean and better quality pillows. Apart from this we had a good stay, the cottage was lovely and warm and homely. ##### Joanne Fraser This review comes from a trusted partner site and has not been verified. ### 10/10 Excellent 10 May 2024 #### Birthday weekend at Holly Cottage We found the cottage with no problem. Loved the views down to Bourton and across the garden and beyond. Everything we asked for was ready - kitchen, coffee maker, dishwasher, high chair, clean, comfortable bedding, great showers, downstairs loo. The cottage is old and stairs were a bit narrow but my grandsons loved it. When the sun came out we played outside and watched the birds. Walking down the hill to Bourton was easy, only took a few minutes and we explored the public footpath back up. A lovely place to stay. ### 10/10 Excellent #### Daniel B. 17 Apr 2024 Liked: Cleanliness, check-in, communication, location, listing accuracy #### Wonderful cottage just up the hill from Bourton-on-the-Water Lovely cottage. Exactly as listed. Part of the week was with friends, and there was plenty of space for all four of us. The other part was just us, and it was nice to spread out. Our senior dog was with us the entire time. He loved the garden. We used our car to get to Bourton-on-the-Water just because it was easier with the dog, but it is a 15-20 minute walk, not bad. Kitchen has all the essentials. Everything was lovely. ##### Daniel B.

It was in a great location for walking down the quiet road to the village centre, the road is quite steep to walk back up though. The outside area was great for our 2 smallish dogs to have a run around. The boot room as you walk in is a fantastic asset with a downstairs toilet and lots of hooks for hanging coats, dog lead etc. Kitchen was very well equipped but there wasn’t a microwave. (We don’t use a microwave very often anyway) The cottage was roomy and clean. We had to stream TV, this is not something I’m used to, but got the hang of it. We gave the loft room and en-suite to our daughter to use to give her, her own space. My husband and I stayed in the double room. There wasn’t any storage in that room so had to use the wardrobe in the twin room which was fine but could have been awkward if someone was in there. The double bed we didn’t find very comfortable - a bit creaky, so we tried the twin beds but they were worse so back to the double we went. Our daughter did say her king bed was very comfortable. The stairs need to be taken with caution and the saniflo toilet in the loft can sometimes run too long, running a little water down the basin stops it. All in all we had a good stay and would stay again. The small issues didn’t bother us but might be useful to others. Also the window in the upstairs sitting area doesn’t close completely - needs looking at before winter sets in. ##### Natalie W. This review comes from a trusted partner site and has not been verified. ### 6/10 Okay 11 Aug 2025 #### Holly cottage Cottage was relatively clean and tidy. But the garden had several dog excrements from the previous visitors! That hadn’t been cleaned up. The beds could definitely doing with re-placing the mattressses, And the cupboard underneath the sink is hanging off. Also the rubbish from the previous week was left for us to put out on the Tuesday. Just little things that could be put right, that would make this charming 200 year old cottage better. ### 10/10 Excellent #### Paul H. 10 Jul 2023 Liked: Cleanliness, check-in, communication, location, listing accuracy #### Lovely area and cottage Great overall.

The en-suite shower was particularly cosy which could be troublesome for many. It was in close proximity to the town but the cottage is on a steep hill which resulted in us driving on most occasions. The beds were also on the soft side but that’s personal preference. On the whole a really enjoyable weekend and due the weather, we got the opportunity to spend most of the time sitting outside in the sun. ##### Holly S. This review comes from a trusted partner site and has not been verified. ### 6/10 Okay 3 Jul 2023 #### Holly Cottage Stay Overall the cottage was fine. However it was unusual not to find a microwave or hairdryer. The kitchen was clean (except oven tray that had been left dirty)but the house needed a bit more TLC. We were surprised to find dead house plants in en-suite and all others were in need to severe watering. The floorboards were lovely but noise level very disruptive in the first floor at night. ### 10/10 Excellent #### Margit J. 19 May 2025 Liked: Cleanliness, check-in, communication, location, listing accuracy ##### Margit J.
