Perfect place for a perfect getaway
The cottage is perfect. Cozy but still has all the modern amenities. Walking distance to the pub which is amazing and short drives to lots of cool towns and things to do. We loved the place and didn’t want to leave!

Lovely weekend away
The cottage was very cute and quaint, just what we like. It was very clean and well equipped. And an added bonus with the log burner and kids toys. Perfect weekend away for my mums birthday. Set in a lovely village between two traditional Cotswold towns with lots of nice shops and pubs and restaurants to visit. Would book again if back in the area.

Lovely family stay
Rose cottage is a quirky, charming, comfortable home with all of the amenties necessary for a relaxing stay. We were 4 adults who enjoyed cooking and eating meals, watching tv in the living room; even doing laundry was a pleasure! It is DARK at night which allowed us to see beautiful stars! Access to Oxford and the Cotswolds is easy and the train to London is great -especially if you book early for cheap fares. Andy was quick to respond with any questions. All in all, 5 out of 5.

Lovely cosy cottage
Thoroughly enjoyed our last minute booking. The customer service was very friendly and patiently answered every question. The booking emails and checkin info email and details arrived promptly. Best is the text sent out meant i had key info at hand. Cottage is located nicely between Oxford and Cotsworld so can cover both. Plenty of rooms and Beds were very comfortable. Overall had a very good holiday and will definitely book again.

Lovely but challenging
The cottage is perfect for four people; unfortunately there were seven of us and the cottage is ill designed for that number. It is a lovely cottage and the main bedroom is brilliant. The cosy garden is also enjoyable for outside relaxing. A key concern are the numerous doorways where there are dual points of steps and very low door beams - if you are over 5'8" you will bang your head or walk around the property with a permanent stoop to avoid those collisions. The main bathroom is also next to useless as the shower, within a half bath, is only for very little people so everyone has to use the shower in the outside annex which is very pleasant. I would definitely recommend the cottage for four people but beyond that only for a short stay.

A week in a cottage
I always wanted to spend a week in a cottage in the english countryside, cooking and reading. Finally had a chance and it was even better than i imagined. The kitchen was bright and cherry, the rooms cozy and intimate and the bedroom with a beautiful beamed roof and morning light. The bells of the church helped with the morning wake up. What a gentle sound to wake up to. The walks nearby were beautiful, the pub warm and friendly and a visit to the local nursery was fun were i picked up some figgy jam. Cannot wait to go back again.

Cosy cottage!
We had a lovely stay at Rose Cottage. There were 6 adults and a toddler in our party which just fit in comfortably. Two of us moved into the annex (which is very well done) to ease up pressure on the bathroom in the main cottage and found this worked well. Overall the cottage is very cosy, well decorated and in a great location. The nearby pub is within a very short walk and the food and beer was great every time we went. The church is also worth a visit, the decorations are beautiful. The main bathroom is quite small - my husband found using the shower in the annex worked much better for him. The stairs are quite open and steep - something to keep in mind if you have small children. There is a small courtyard garden outside. This would have been much nicer with some additional pot planting and there are only two seats, which was a little disappointing for the six of us when we thought about using the bbq. We did use the washing machine, tumble dryer and iron which were all good. The information pack mainly had information on where to eat in nearby towns but not being from the area, a greater list of things to do / info leaflets / maps / suggestions for walks would have been useful. The village is also beautiful, we went to the farmers’ market whilst we were there and it was great! There’s also a great children’s play area in the park near the village hall and cricket pitch.
