Delightful Cotswold Cottage.
Highly recommend this lovely little stone cottage. It was clean, comfortable and well equipped. Our host, Emily, was very helpful with info about travelling to and from the town and responded to enquiries quickly. Winchcombe is a great place from which to hike and there was lots of info in the cottage about local trails.

Lovely traditional cottage
Lovely traditional cottage, close to castle and all amenities. Let down by the weather but this is England. Unfortunately only a couple of places to eat at the time we were there as the corner cupboard was closed and so was the old bakery and plaisterers arms didn’t have a cook. lol cal Indian was amazing. Check in process was easy and hosts on other end of the phone if you needed anything

Lovely little cottage with parking. Little garden at the back is gorgeous. Great location in lovely Winchcombe. We were attending an event at Prescott hillclimb all week so it was very handy. The owner was so helpful and always on hand. Will be booking again.

Great location, let down by cleanliness
Great location with many walks from the doorstep, also close to shops and restaurants. Cottage let down by the cleanliness and the smell of dogs. The downstairs needs a deep clean with all the soft furnishings needing a wash, the bathroom white wear was clean however there was thick dust on the skirting boards, cobwebs and mould on the ceiling. The garden was enclosed and a great bonus but the photos were from years ago as the garden was overgrown, lots of weeds with no maintenance. We had to sweep the patio, scrub the patio table and chairs and clean the inside of the bbq from cobwebs before we could use it. The cottage itself is a lovely stone cottage and wouldn’t take much to make this it outstanding with tidying the garden, a deep clean of everything with redecorating the bathroom. The beds were very comfortable, lots of useful information especially for all the walks locally, easy check in and communication from the owner was great, kitchen was compact but had everything you needed. It is a bonus you can bring your dog (we also had a dog with us) and this cottage is obviously used by lots of dog owners. However this is apparent with the doggy smell as soon as you open the door. If you allow dogs to stay in the cottage this requires a deep clean after each visit. From the stains on the sofas, chairs and the smell of the cushions and blankets, dogs have used all of these. Such a shame as the cottage itself is lovely.

A great three week stay!
We just finished up a three weeks stY. Winchcomb, one of our favorite towns in the UK. The cottage is in a great location and is a quaint grade 2 listed property, making it comfortably rustic, but equipped with all the mod cons. A two minute walk and you are in the middle of town. Comfortable bed, plenty of hot water, fast internet, and smart TV. Parking was not a problem. In the three weeks we stayed we parked either directly out front or one or two spaces either side of the front door. The kitchen was well equipped with everything we needed for cooking on the nights we chose to eat at home. Plenty of pubs and good takeout for those nights you’d rather not cook. Emma was a great host, easy to work with, extremely communicative, and had loads of local advice. A great enclosed yard for our dog round it out our visit. If you are considering a stay in Winchcombe, I would put this place on your short list.

Fantastic house. Emma was very easy to deal with, she communicated frequently beforehand and checked how we were going during our stay. The location was great for checking out other parts of the Cotswolds and the town of Winchcombe is amazing.

Perfect bolt hole
We’ve had an amazing stay over the new year break. Location is perfect just at the bottom of the lane leading to the castle. The spectacle of light event is worth recommending. The cottage is like the one from the Holiday movie, just perfect for a festive (not only) break. In the middle of the village so all restaurants within a few minutes. The cottage is just lovely, two lovely and comfortable bedrooms, great downstairs and we’ve used the gas stove for the extra coziness. The bottle of wine in the fridge was a welcome surprise, thank you. We had a fantastic and relaxing stay!

Excellent holiday let
A well appointed property with everything necessary to enjoy a marvellous short break. A point of special note were the very comfortable beds, which enabled the whole part to enjoy exceptional rest at night. A quiet location aoart from one lovely evening of church bells (practice?). Be very likely to look again at this property for our next break.

Break away in the Cotswolds with our pet dog 🐾
The cottage is absolutely beautiful in a picturesque street. We were blessed with lovely weather & was able to make full use of the pretty enclosed garden, completely dog friendly. We were so comfortable in the cosy cottage & a great base to explore the surrounding areas.

Cottage with great garden
Emma and Jim are very hospitable and helpful hosts. The cottage is well appointed with modern appliances and convenient to amenities and all sorts of Cotswold activities. It is a fun house to be in. Great hiking in the area, which is picturesque. The immediate neighbors are fine, but the neighborhood does have several houses where dogs are allowed to bark outside nonstop.

Great location
Very cute cottage. Perfect for two women travelling together. We each had a bedroom with very comfortable beds. Lovely garden in the back. Located in a small town, so everything was nearby. Owners are very helpful, even picking us up in Cheltenham when we arrived on the bank holiday for the Queen's and the bus to Winchcombe was uncertain.

Our new 2nd home in Winchcombe
The moment we entered this enchanting, perfectly appointed cottage in the welcoming hamlet of Winchcombe we knew we had found a second home. Our week was ideal, as we came to know the town and the cottage provided a centralized and comfortable home base from which to hike, and visit nearby villages and historic sites. We could not be happier with the layout, furnishings, kitchen, and outside space. The beds are extremely comfortable and nights on the street are very quiet. The hostess welcomed us on our first day and explained the easy-to-use facilities. Our experience with vacation rentals includes flats and houses in Europe and the U.K. and this week was flawless. I am the guy who *always* asks for the other table and I have not a single complaint. Definitely consider this cottage if the location and size meet your needs, but please do not rent it on the week we will next return! (Again -- be SURE to dine and drink IN Winchcombe, you will NOT be disappointed! And the pubs and restaurants are a short walking distance, which we also love.)
