Great space Great location
Enjoyed the stay at Snowdrop cottage. Parking was easy, either outside or close by. The TV relies on you having apps to be able to watch. Easy to walk into Chipping Norton from the house where there is good butcher and local shops. Enjoyed being close to great Cotswold places to visit. Well equipped kitchen for those who wish to cook.

Good location
The house was in a great location for exploring the Cotswolds and a good size for 2 adults and 2 kids. Quiet street and good to have easy parking. The downstairs flooring could do with re-doing and the kitchen too. There was a dead squashed fly on the wall from previous guests I assume, which hadn’t been cleaned. It was good for the price and would recommend to anyone on a tight budget who wants easy access to nice walks and the beauty of the Cotswolds.

A cosy and comfortable little house
We thoroughly enjoyed our stay in Chipping Norton. We have travelled through it many times on our way to more popular Cotswold places, but have never really explored it. We were very pleasantly surprised! Lots of nice pubs and a couple of good restaurants, or if you want to stay in, a range of delis and food shops. Snowdrop Cottage was handy for all facilities and was very well equipped. It might be a bit of a squeeze for four adults, but was just perfect for two. We would definitely like to return.

Lovely, well equipped cottage
The Cottage itself was lovely in a very quiet location. No issues with parking on the road outside the house. Inside was well equipped with new modern fixtures and fittings. Only one downside was the garden was unkept and needed a good tidy and sweeping. Not suitable for a small dog who would get lost in the shrubs and covered in forget me not seeds!. Uneven areas could not be identified as covered with plants. Only a concrete area for her to toilet on. Ended up taking her on a lead on the grass at the side of the house. Other than that a nice, relaxing stay.

Perfect!
This cottage was a perfect place to stay for a few nights, we brought our dog along as well which the garden was perfect for - all enclosed and safe. The property is a little creaky upstairs but that's just character of a cottage right? The whole place was clean top to toe and plenty of amenities such as washing up liquid, tin foil, tea, coffee. The host also supplied eggs, bread, milk, butter etc - which was a really nice touch. One small issue was the lack of toilet paper. Location perfect for Chipping Norton, quiet (although one barking dog in the distance set off OUR dog) but that's life. Nice views, plenty of on-road parking, loads of restaurants and places to eat/drink within walking distance. We wanted to go for a nice walk in the countryside but we ran out of time! - Looks like there's plenty of walks nearby. Thanks again for a great stay!
