Lying within the Foxholes Nature Reserve, this is a place of blissful woodland seclusion. As you emerge from the trees, the long, low building, and its sweeping front lawn with giant sculptures, is revealed before you. Stepping through the front door, this single storey residence leaps into life with vivid, eye-catching works of art, bright colours and individual furnishings, acquired from the owners' global travels. The building is bathed in natural light thanks to the huge windows and multitude of skylights throughout. The impressive space of the open-plan kitchen/dining/living room is a social, multipurpose hub and features a vibrantly hued kitchen, dining table and welcoming seating area with sofas gathered around a large wood-burning stove. A wall of sliding glass doors opens to the private rear garden and the patio, seamlessly blending indoor/outdoor living. In addition to the six bedrooms there are two mezzanine sleeping areas (offering useful flexibility for families), plus a cosy snug/sitting room, and a large annex, which boasts a vaulted ceiling and wood-burning stove, L shaped sofa, a kitchenette and stairs to one of the mezzanine areas. Beyond the sliding doors is a pretty patio area with a wisteria-strewn pergola. Surrounded by the sound of birdsong and the wind in the trees, it's a wonderful spot for alfresco dining on warm summer evenings. This enclosed, beautifully natural garden offers an abundance of space and privacy and plenty of room for kids of all ages to burn off energy.

The cottage was very easy to find. It was very clean and comfortable. We had a great time!

Fantastically interesting house and garden, so much to look at and explore. Day three and I was still finding bits of art I hadn't noticed. All very clean and well equipped kitchen. Plenty of crockery for our group. Only slight gripe was that it was really hot weather but we felt we could've done with opening the velux windows but they wouldn't work, but then it was an extraordinarily hot weekend. The surrounding area is beautiful and we enjoyed the walks and local villages. All in all a fantastic place to stay and we'd love to return in the future. ##### Jeremy W. ### 10/10 Excellent #### Greg W. 16 Dec 2024 Liked: Cleanliness, check-in, communication, location, listing accuracy #### Perfect family weekend away Great location for an early family xmas weekend away.

The kitchen/diner is bright and airy, with a dining table for 10 and well equipped kitchen, overlooking the beautiful garden. All the bedrooms were comfortable, good quality duvets and towels. There is interesting artwork throughout the house - even if not to everyone’s taste! Getting to the house was a little challenging, along a pot-holed track - which added to the sense of getting away from normal life. Highly recommended! ### 10/10 Excellent #### Sam G. 15 Feb 2023 Liked: Cleanliness, check-in, communication, location, listing accuracy #### Great place Really great place to stay, everything as described, nice furnishings and a great open plan living area ##### Sam G.

We couldn’t have chosen a more comfortable and spacious property. Everything was spot on - fabulous kitchen/diner/living space with big sofas and a great wood burner. Bedrooms were luxurious and bathrooms lovely. The whole place was quirky but wonderful. Highly recommend. Very responsive owner. Cafe Bruern does great breakfasts and a nice walk to get there. ##### F C.

Very colourful, with “secret” rooms and passageways. We were a group of eleven - six adults and five children. We loved the seclusion and the direct access to dog walks. The children adored the garden which is huge. We even had deer visit us! A great stay. ##### Amanda G.

The decor and art is so colourful and interesting with quality bedding and towels adding to the relaxed comfort of the cottage. With ample room for all our needs and a well equipped kitchen the cottage fulfilled all our expectations. The little touches like the dressing up basket was a lovely surprise. The garden with enclosed trampoline and swing was well used and all felt secure. The areas immediately outside the sliding doors and the front porch could have been tidier. The cottage is isolated but with walks on your doorstep a pub and cafe are in within easy reach. All communication with Bolthole Retreats and the owner was easy. We had a wonderful time and would thoroughly recommend Brock Cottage. ##### Debs G.

Its spacious layout was perfect for our needs. A large comfortable seating area allowed us to be together, luxurious bedrooms offered downtime and a good night's sleep in comfortable beds with quality linen. Kitchen facilities were good enabling us to do a Sunday roast comfortably seated at the dining table. We BBQ'd in the large lawned garden one afternoon which was good though the BBQ needs to be replaced, though we managed. The location is secluded, set peacefully in beautiful wooded countryside, ideal for walking Ted the dog. The property is well off the beaten track down a rough potholed track which is fine as long as you are careful and take your time. Once there we didn't venture out but should you wish to there are several Cotswold towns and attractions within easy reach. I would definitely book this cottage again. ##### Leslie A.

It was the perfect balance of spacious and cosy. We loved the unique vibe and the location is ideal for exploring either on foot or in short drives to all the cotswold must-see spots. We’d definitely go again, thank you! ##### Gabrielle L.

It is perfect for all ages. The huge living area looks out into the garden so is very safe for children to play while adults look on. It is an original, eclectic and spacious house with comfortable bedrooms and extremely well equipped. It is in a very isolated location in a nature reserve so is quiet and all you can hear are the birds. A very unique and lovely place ##### Jane T. ### 10/10 Excellent #### Gillian S. 27 Mar 2023 Liked: Cleanliness, check-in, communication, location, listing accuracy #### Shabby chic house House suited our family of small children and adults very well.

Tee cottage is large and rambling with memorable decoration. With 8 adults plus 5 children ages 1 to 5 there was plenty of space for everyone. We were very lucky with the weather as the garden was a perfect place to have outdoor fun. Brock Cottage was well equipped with everything we needed. ### 10/10 Excellent #### Ken B. 25 Apr 2023 Liked: Cleanliness, check-in, communication, location, listing accuracy #### Great for a large family Long weekend for 12 including 6 kids under 11. A great stay in an amazing and quirky cottage. Loads of room for everyone to have space and yet get together for meals and socialising. Kids loved the huge garden with woods and a stream, building dens and bridges. Would come back in a heartbeat. ##### Ken B.

Fun for children to find the bedrooms hidden behind the cupboard doors Only negative comment. The final part of the dirt track proved quite stressful, But all in all a lovely property to spend a lovely family weekend ### 10/10 Excellent #### Nnamdi A. 19 Aug 2022 Liked: Check-in, communication, location, listing accuracy #### Beautiful hide away Renting this property was a joy. The host is very responsive and helpful, and their property is a delight. Lovely setting (on a nature reserve), charming house with wonderful original artwork throughout the house. It's a great place to get away to with family and/or friends. What can I say about the Cotswolds - is there be a better slice of England? Overall, a lovely place to holiday in. Highly recommended! ##### Nnamdi A. Stayed 7 nights in Aug 2022 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Mairina W. 4 Apr 2023 Liked: Cleanliness, check-in, communication, location, listing accuracy #### Fabulous A beautiful quirky house …lots of wonderful art around. We liked most that the kitchen, dining, sitting area is all in one big room with patio doors all down one side on to the large, simple garden full of wildlife.. It gave a wonderful atmosphere both when the sun was shining and also when it was pouring down with rain. The house is beautifully put together with all you need …we were 80 year old and 4 year olds and lots of ages in between. Kitchen well equipped and all the beds comfortable with nice linen. ##### Mairina W.

The house is well equipped and full of interesting art and objects, it is an eclectic, creative space, wonderfully unique and interesting. It is large enough with numerous living spaces for everyone to have enough space. The main living space has loads of light and was a lovely room to sit and spend time. The track is quite potholed but fine taking it slow. The children particularly enjoyed the garden with the trampoline and swing. Many thanks. ##### Jessie H.

There were 8 of us and usually we have to bunk in together sharing rooms and beds and never really sleep that well, but there were such a variety of spaces that we nearly managed a room each here. It did take us about 20 mins, and several tours around the house to find the final 3 bedrooms!! The house is wonderfully colourful and comfortable, has an incredibly well equipped kitchen, and there were plenty of logs and kindling provided to keep us cosy. Many similar properties we've stayed in, or looked at while shortlisting, just don't have the communal seating space to sit all 8 comfortably, but there was bags of space here with 3 huge sofas in the open plan area plus 2 comfy chairs, and even more in the sitting room and annex which we didn't even use. The beds were all, by all accounts, very comfortable - mine certainly was - with lovely duvets and pillows. There was plenty of hot water and powerful showers. We did a lovely, if VERY muddy, walk around the nature reserve and to the farm shop and cafe at Bruern on Saturday for some very good cake and coffees, and bread, cheese and some other groceries to take back to the house. We also had a delicious dinner at the Kings Head Inn at Bledington, and Sunday lunch at The Sheep in Stow-on-the-Wold. All highly recommended. We had visits from Muntjac deer in the garden which was wonderful, and the best night's sky viewing that I've had in the UK - no light pollution and a clear frosty night provided perfect conditions. One thing to note is the very remote location (although that also adds to its charm) - I was expecting it to be remote, but the track to the house was a little rougher and longer than perhaps I'd anticipated and you need to factor that in if you have a low/old car, and I as rather glad we took some food with us for the Friday night after our drive there. It makes you slightly more reluctant to travel back and forth too much and it was much further to the pub than I'd anticipated from the description - we ended up driving rather than walking which we'd planned as the footpath was too muddy and not that pleasant to walk along the roadway. But as I said, not necessarily a negative, just something to be aware of. Great communication with the owner, and they very kindly posted back some jewellery that had been left behind. Highly recommend Brock Cottage for a very pleasant stay with family or friends. ##### Jane C.

There was a lovely efficient log burner in the open plan kitchen/dining/sitting area and a generous supply of logs. The beds were very comfortable with good quality bedding. The house is in a perfect position for walkers as The Oxfordshire Way starts at the end of the drive. A perfect place for adults and children. ##### M L.
