Newbury Cottage

Loved the location, the kitchen and the conservatory. The entire garden was delightful.

The kitchen teapots and French Press were not clean when we arrived. The top of the stove was greasey. There was no welcome basket as mentioned in the email and welcome book. The living room was comfortable, but was in desperate need of a thorough cleaning, especially the carpet. The bed was very small, but so was the room. The alleyway was so incredibly tight and so was the garage. We and others struggled a lot with parking. We ended up scraping the side of the rental car trying to park and then could barely get the doors open. I understand the circumstances, but we were not told that a very small car was the only way to get in and parked safely.

A very characteristic cottage in walking distance to everything in Bourton.

Nothing

The cottage is a beautiful old building and full of charm. It is warm and cosy, and the bathroom has separate bath and shower. Its location is excellent, right on the High Street with parking at the back and a lovely view of the church tower from the back garden (take earplugs if you’re a light sleeper because the clock chimes every 15 minutes). The only downside was that the cottage wasn’t very well provisioned. There were no tea towels in the kitchen and there was only one toilet roll provided for a 4 person booking over 3 days.

Excellent location with easy access to the town. Lovely character features. The cottage was well appointed with everything you need. Lovely conservatory area which we enjoyed our meals in. The location is A plus! Church next door with lovely church bells which added to the charm. We had a very enjoyable stay! The loft area was very cute but not really suitable for adults due to access and bed size more suited for children. Also, The driveway is tight! And so is the garage. Only suitable for a small car. We opted not to park the hire car there as we had a larger SUV. We parked our car in paid parking in town as street parking is almost impossible. This is noted in the booking so we are aware in advance. This did not detract from our stay and in my opinion not a negative (however noted for consideration) as these cottages were built before cars and they have done the best they can to provide a parking option.

The house was so warm and cozy that we didn't really want to leave. The location was very convenient to shopping and restaurants. And the house had every convenience that our family needed. If we are ever in this area again, we would definitely stay here again.

Cosy lovely cottage with lots of detail & history enjoyed reading the lovely comments. We loved the church, especially listening to it ringing Very close to the shops and bars, visited local attractions & coatswold wildlife park & crocodile world. Love Bourton-on-the-Water went when I lived in leamington spa with parents

The location was superb and we were lucky with the weather.

The information manual said there would be milk and juice in the welcome pack, and bread in the freezer... there was not and that the central heating boiler would be on, it was but the heating wasnt and it was quite chilly upon arrival at 4.10pm; its always nice after a journey to walk into somewhere toasty warm. The cottage would benefit from some toiletries being left to use, there was hand-wash but nothing more. It would also be good if the information file was updated. It is outdated and could do with a good re write. The parking is tight but this is noted however someone had decided to park where we were due to so we couldn't if we wanted too... we used the British Legion car park. It would also be good to note the proximity of the church as the church bells chime all night so if you are a light sleeper this could ruin a holiday.

Great location, short walk to town centre. Cosy cottage with bags of character and a well equipped kitchen.

Can't think of anything I didn't like about this cottage. The Wi-Fi stopped working a few times but other than that it was super.
