The Cotswolds is my favorite part of England and Lanterns was the perfect getaway to enjoy it.

Lauren was exceptional in the run up to our stay, giving us clear instructions and lots of great ideas for local activities. The cottage is beautifully furnished with every detail covered, and well equipped for all our family needs. Great garden for relaxing, BBQ's and for the kids to let off a bit of steam.

Owner is very helpful and provided really good information and recommendations and also provided a lovely hamper that was ready for us on arrival.

The house was in excellent condition when we arrived, just as it had appeared in photos. Lauren was a terrific host, answering questions right away and providing excellent suggestions for restaurants, walks, etc. In addition to her usual welcome basket (which was excellent, as noted in many other reviews), she left us a bottle of champagne because she knew we were celebrating a birthday. We especially appreciated the easy parking and how well stocked the kitchen was, in addition to the welcoming fireplace and throws in the living room and the heated bathroom and kitchen floors, which made the house extra cozy. The house was really a comfortable place for 4 adults to come home to each day. We'll be back! ##### Marjorie Z. Stayed 4 nights in Apr 2024 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Dennis L. 12 Sept 2024 Liked: Cleanliness, check-in, communication, location, listing accuracy #### The perfect base for your Cotswolds visit This is a sterling property wonderfully situated in the most perfect village. Impeccably and thoughtfully restored and equipped. Owners have exceptional taste and thought of everything to make renters comfortable. The kitchen is a marvel of organization. Both bedrooms and bathrooms (we used the third to store our luggage) very spacious and luxurious. Blockley is an ideal place to base your stay in the Cotswolds. It is utterly beautiful, and while very well-located and proximate to the places you want to go, it is somehow off the radar and not heavily touristed. So it provides a very authentic experienced of life there. Laurel provided a wealth of very good recommendations for restaurants, services and sightseeing. The house manual is the best we've ever seen! The pub at the end of the small road where the house is set with two others was closed for two weeks while we were there, but otherwise would have been a great 2-minute walk convenience for meals or pints. Local store has everything. Can't imagine a better place to choose for our stay and feel very lucky we found it. ##### Dennis L.

Amazing! Everything we could have expected, had all of the extras, beautiful setting, Even better than the pictures. We have stayed in several vacation rentals across the US and Europe and this was our favorite one yet. The layout was fantastic for a group of 4 adults and two children. All the finishing were high end. We enjoyed the outdoor space on sunny days and the garden was delightful. The location is perfect. Located in a small Cotswold town, there is a pub across the Street and cafe/general store a short (beautiful)\_walk away. There was also a park and playground 100 meters away. The house also had a coloring table and toys for the children to play with. Inside, the kitchen had all of the necessary utensils and the espresso machine was a nice touch. There was plenty of seating in the living space with comfortable chairs. It was a pleasure to stay in this home and it added to a wonderful experience in the Cotswolds. ##### Kevin M.

Everything about this cottage was luxurious. From gorgeous and extremely well appointed kitchen, the incredibly comfortable beds, the bathrooms, the outdoor patios, the fresh flowers, and the very thoughtful welcome basket! It was very peaceful. We woke to church bells ringing in the distance, birds singing, and watched the sun rise while making our morning espresso with the Nespresso machine. We ate at the local pub which was right across the street. Very yummy and great service. It was the perfect home base to explore the Cotswolds. Thank you so much to our host!
