November Break
Knoll Cottage was just perfect, we walked into the cottage and just felt instantly relaxed & at home. It had everything you wood need. It was clean warm, the bed was so comfortable . Great spot to the local pub The Crown 18 steps from the cottage. Would definitely return and stay again

Lovely Cottagefrom the bedrooms were
We enjoyed our stay at Knoll Cottage. The property was tastefully decorated, comfortable and well equipped. There were great walks from the property and the views from the bedrooms were lovely. The only downsides were a few low beams and quite steep stairs so this might not be the right property for taller people or those with mobility issues.

Cosy cottage in quaint village
We had a lovely time here. Although the internet went down (and two us were working) the neighbours offered their connection which was very nice and helpful. The showers we struggled with as either boiling or cold but overall a great stay.

Wonderful stayed at The Knoll Cottage. You felt as home when you arrived to the cottage. Everything is very clean. You can find details everywhere. The sofá and beds are very confortable. All rooms are lovely decorated. The kitchen is great, love cook there! The back yard is so beautiful. It has been one of the best houses we have ever been. Thankyou!

Lovely cottage
We have stayed at Knoll Cottage a couple of times before and everything about it is wonderful. The only thing I marked comfort down for is that I think the mattress on the bed on the first floor needs replacing, I also noticed that it had been mentioned in your comments book but felt I would like to be more discreet. Also the black bin bag is so thin that it is impossible to lift it from the bin without it splitting, just a small point but would make a big difference being thicker quality. This was also mentioned in the comments book. However we had a lovely time and will be booking with you again. Thank you so much.

Wonderful stay in a beautiful cottage and beautiful village
We enjoyed a wonderfully relaxing break in Knoll Cottage. The cottage is decorated to a very high standard, and is the most well equipped holiday let I've ever encountered. The village of Blockley is beautiful and is very well positioned for exploring further afield, we met a few of the locals and they were extremely welcoming. Would definitely stay again and highly recommend.

Lovely stay. Cottage absolutely beautiful the view from the living room window is incredible. Only criticisms would be no welcome pack and no means or area to dry wet clothes, coats and boots after walking.

A lovely stay in Knoll Cottage
Knoll Cottage was a perfect place from which to explore the North Cotswolds. The cottage is beautifully decorated and very comfortable with everything needed for a comfortable self catering break. The garden is lovely - very welcome during the hot week we were there. The cottage is over the road from the Crown Hotel but is still really quite and peaceful in the lovely village of Blockley. Highly recommended!

Lovely spot
We really enjoyed our home base for a week in the Cotswolds. Knoll Cottage was beautifully decorated, with a lovely garden, and very well equipped. The views out the back were outstanding! There is a great restaurant/cafe in town, as well as a grocery store with all the basics. And the Father Brown TV show church is in Blockley too! My only suggestion is for better quality/ greater quantity of towels.

As you imagine the Cotswolds
Cute Cotswolds cottage in a quiet village with village pubs and cafe. Really nice local people. Comfortable beds and cosey living room. Easy drives to almost anywhere - we visited Blenheim, Daylesford and lots of the surrounding villages. The Fox (part of Daylesford) was fab atmosphere and food but you are spoilt for choice when it comes to pub lunches.

Amazing location in Darling Cottage
My mother and I spent 2 lovely weeks at Knoll Cottage. She wanted to experience a traditional Cotswold village and Blockley did not disappoint. We felt like part of the community when we were recognized at the local pub and spent time chatting with long time residents after dinner. The cottage is well equipped and ideal for 1-4 adults. We really appreciated the stash of teas, bottle of wine and container of milk. The location is central to anything in the Cotswolds. Blockley is quiet but you might get awoken by the sound of horse hooves on cobble stones! A few words of advice - the stairs are narrow as indicated. If you aren’t able to easily maneuver your suitcase, you might want to unpack in the living room and bring up armfuls. Also - be prepared to duck! It’s truly an historic building and the beams are a danger for anyone over 5’9”.

Our perfect place
We absolutely loved staying at Knoll Cottage. As soon as we arrived, we were met with a cosy and warm living room that was a welcome escape from the harsh elements outside. We loved the decor and the quirkiness of the cottage and the views of the valley from the main bedroom were exquisite, especially with the autumn colours. It was easy to feel instantly at home, so much so that we would definitely like to return one day as it really is a special place. The location right in the centre of the beautiful village was also perfect.

We are always happy here x however the cottage was absolutely freezing cold 11c heating turned off . No hot water x and a faulty door knob on the front door x only 3 logs for a 5 day stay x one which was to big for the log burner x After 24 hours we got the lovely cottage cosy once more x On saying this we would definitely return for our 6th stay x

Superb accommodation. Cottage delightfully decorated and furnished with excellent facilities and equipment with nothing lacking. Great location in a lovely village previously unknown to us. Parking on the road wasn't a problem as we found spaces outside the cottage most of the time. Everything very clean. Good communication with StayCotswold and MyClean.

Loved it!
A wonderful stay at a lovely cottage. Beds were great. Sofa comfy, Garden, a treat. Views to the rear of the cottage beautiful. The cottage feels bigger than the pictures on the site. We came as a couple needing 2 bedrooms. Both rooms were great, with the bonus of wardrobe space and toilets on each bedroom level. The living room has a wood burner (not needed for our stay) and the cottage has C/H that can be boosted to keep you toasty if necessary. Welcome goodies were appreciated, thanks a lot! TV was fine and all apps accessible. The Kitchen was fairly well equipped and easy to use. The Downstairs toilet was v.handy. Blockley village is a lovely place to wander around and the shop and café are both good. Locals were friendly and the Pub over the road served nice food. Parking was generally ok on street outside. We will be back. Thank you.

Our fourth stay
We have stayed at Knoll Cottage four times now and enjoy returning to what feels like a home from home. The village is beautiful and has all the essentials including a very good cafe and shop. There are lovely walks from the house. The beds are every comfortable. I would say that it suits us as we are two friends that go and have one room each and then the living room set up works for us because there are only two of us. It’s not really a living room for four adults as the two chairs are formal chairs and there is one sofa. The kitchen is fairly well equipped with essentials. Parking has never been a problem for us.

Lovely traditional Cotswolds cottage
Knoll Cottage is very comfortable, cozy and warm, loved staying there, visiting family in the area. One thing, the cottage was very well equipped with everything, didn't have any problems with anything but I would have liked an outside washing line or drying rack. Would have been handy because of the hot weather. I didn't come by car, a bit difficult staying here but managed perfectly by using the bus and train instead to several interesting places. Did my shopping in the lovely local shop, having a coffee there as well and often my family drove me around too. I enjoyed the garden and also took some yoga classes in Jubilee Hall. So really enjoyed my time in Blockley and will surely come again in the future!
