Stayed 3 nights in Aug 2025 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Mark A. 14 May 2025 Liked: Cleanliness, check-in, communication, location, listing accuracy #### First Visit To The Cotswolds The property was exactly as advertised. Like it was mentioned, it is about a 20 minute walk into town. Nice distance to go after dinner/lunch. Hanging out on the back porch was serene. There was only two of us so we didn’t need the two extra bedrooms, but we were okay with that. We didn’t use the kitchen facilities since we ate out during our visit. We had a bit of an issue getting instructions to the house but the communication with Freddie was great. Would definitely stay there again if we are in the area. ##### Mark A.

A peaceful back lawn where we would spend our evenings recapping the day with a glass of wine and charcuterie. Would definitely recommend and stay again. Freddie was a great host! ##### Camille W.
