"Great place to unwind."

10.0

This property was so cute snd unique. Loved the idea of staying in an old schoolhouse. The inside had many historic features like wood beam ceiling and windows but it has been modernized to include a gorgeous kitchen and light/bright living room and bedroom The location was easy to get to, right on the Cotswold Way trail.

"Excellent stay..would highly recommend."

9.0

We loved the large open plan design and everything was catered for. The pool table / dining table was very clever and provided great entertainment. Perfect location.

Only a suggestion when you have 2 couples staying, it would help to have 2 door keys.

"We had a happy time!"

8.0

Large open plan space, comfy chair/sofas for lounging in front of excellent tv, well-equipped kitchen, excellent location and clearly some pride in the place which was lovely to see.

Small suggestions for improvement: hooks on the back of bathroom/bedroom doors due to there being limited storage space in the main bedroom and add at least one chair for putting clothes on. Would also suggest some more shelving or storage space in the bathroom. The big surprise (probably because we didn't read the description properly) was that there was no real privacy in the upstairs bedroom and it was completely open to the main reception room/kitchen. It worked ok, just, because one single person was happy to put up with it. All that said, we loved our stay.
