Beautiful holiday cottage. Everything has been decorated and provided to a high specification. The views were lovely. Great location in which to enjoy many attractions and my husband and daughter particularly enjoyed the cheese rolling at Coopers Hill!

Absolutely Brilliant
We absolutely loved staying at this property. It was spotless and extremely well fitted out - could not fault any part of our stay. We felt so relaxed and comfortable and it was great to be able to return at the end of the day and unwind in such a lovely comfortable and clean property. We would dearly love to stay here again, but as we have travelled from New Zealand, we may not be able to return to the UK but absolutely 100% recommend this property to all discerning travelers. Lovely hosts.

The coach house
This property is very well appointed and we thoroughly enjoyed our stay here. We would recommend to anyone visiting the Cotswolds. We had a little difficulty finding it it the dark and rain but the owner was very helpful in giving us precise directions.

First-rate holiday rental
This property is well presented and spotless. No corners have been cut, it's clear, on furnishings and fittings and everything one needs for a comfortable stay is on hand. Similarly, the grounds and surrounding areas are immaculate while the hosts are really pleasant and accommodating. This is a good base with many of the pleasures of the Cotswolds within a reasonably short drive and the city of Gloucester very close by.

A perfect property with a lovely view!
What can be said? This property is perfect for a couple or a small family, a lovely open plan living space with very up to date appliances (Induction hob, electric oven, microwave, dishwasher and washer dryer). Lovely underfloor heating through out with individual controls in each room means you can be warm and cosy and the showers are lovely in the ensuite and main bathroom. I can not think of one negative to this property, its lovely and cosy and just great (With friendly attentive owners who really seem to care about the property).

Excellent place for a relaxing break
This is a great place to relax and unwined. Very nicely furnished and comfortable. Kim and Paul were great hosts, very helpful and caring. The location is beautiful overlooking the severn Valley you can see all the way to the Malvern Hills, on a clear day. Close to Painswick Beacon, there are some fantastic walks. Highly recommend this quiet property if you are looking to relax and de-stress. Thank you Kim and Paul!

Me and a few friends came to Stroud for the Cheltenham festival , 20mins drive which is more then fine. The property has great views in a quieter location. I found Kim very easy to deal with any questions beforehand were dealt with very quickly & will be looking to book again in the future. Kim is a great host

Staycation to see Family
The property is beautiful with every utensil required and lovely clean bathroom and en-suite. In the directions, from Hatton Court Hotel, it says turn right when you see Horse and Stag triangular sign - we could not find this sign so drove on too far. If sign not there any more, suggest alter directions. Bedrooms very comfortable with plenty of storage space. Sofas in lounge area a little small/tight. Lovely surrounding area and views and lovely private garden area. Very helpful owners. All in all very good, would recommend!
