Guest Reviews

• Heather (9/5): Fabulous apartment in a great location. - Stylish property in a fabulous location. Super helpful host. Nothing.
• Dan (7/5): -
• Peggy (10/5): We will definitely stay here again when we visit the Cotswolds. It’s the perfect place to relax, refresh and head off to - Beautifully done and with all the necessities and more. The location was perfect and it housed two couples perfectly. N/A
• Gemma (10/5): Beautiful self contained apartment, lovely location and extremely helpful and accommodating host. - The host was super helpful and provided lots of recommendations including OB's for the best coffee and pastries in Stow. The kitchen had everything we needed, and more, and the place was just beautiful. We had a great time and didn't want to leave and the bathroom is dreamy! Nothing really. The only watch-out is that the bathroom is on the main floor and the stairs to the bedrooms are steep, so it's not good for the elderly or those with limited mobility.
• Leigh (6/5): Lovely design, very clean but not the best curbside appeal - Lovely design, very clean . The frontage of the house, which is shared with next door is a bit tatty, bin and rubbish left out. A welcome pack or just half a pint of milk would have been nice.
• Kathryn (10/5): Perfect stay at Stow!! - We loved everything about the property! So much attention to detail in the decor and general presentation. It was great to have some staples like coffee, oil, salt & pepper, cling wrap, alfoil etc. The location was fantastic with an easy walk to the centre of the village. Nothing, loved it all!
• Kate (9/5): Fab, great place to stay. - Stunning accommodation, home from home. Everything you needed and more. Just wish the bed's were a little bigger but it would not put me off staying again.
• Emma (9/5): A home away from home! - Cosy, stylish and excellent location!
• Harriet (10/5): - The decor and interior of the property, prompt and helpful communication with Andrew, cleanliness and location - couldn't fault it!
• Shahida (9/5): We went with a 15 month old toddler. It is such a nice layout to be able to have some downtime after my daughter went to - Very nicely decorated, it was clean too The coffee machine didn’t seem to work but that’s ok
• Wendy (10/5): Memorable stay in Stow! - Well designed and decorated cosy apartment with everything we needed while visiting Stow and surrounding villages. We thoroughly enjoyed our stay and highly recommend the Architect’s Home! Nothing! Wish we could have stayed longer!
• Annabel (9/5): A fantastic stay and such lovely hosts who had great, fast communication with us! Thank you! -
• Ann (8/5): -
• Kelly (10/5): Excellent property great location to get around the Cotswolds - Location was excellent There were no instructions for the coffee machine
• Mike (9/5): - Spacey and well equipped

• Richard (10/5): - The whole place was stunning. Great location and so well decorated. Nothing.
• Virginie (10/5): -
• Amy (10/5): Lovely stay in great location - Lovely modern two bed apartment, with lovely touches and amenities. Fantastic location; a few minutes walk into stow-on-the-wold.
• Kim (10/5): Perfect for a relaxing few days away in a beautiful place, definitely recommend - Location, parking, accommodation A+ Nothing
• Bobbie (10/5): Fantastic Christmas - We stayed for three nights over Christmas. The cottage was outstanding; Beautifully decorated throughout, it had even been tastefully decorated for Christmas. The cottage had all the amenities you could need, with so many small extras provided. Everything had been well thought through. Friendly, clear instructions provided on arrival and departure. The central location meant it was easy to get into the village. There was nothing we could fault!
• Laura (10/5): Beyond happy - comfortable, immaculate, perfect accommodation! - Everything! The host was beyond helpful and friendly and so accommodating. The location was ideal, only a few minutes walk from the main square. The accommodation itself was amazing, the homely feel and inviting decor - it was so perfect and comfortable. The little touches were really appreciated. One of the best booking.com experiences I've had (and i book a lot!) Really recommend this accommodation to all! Absolutely nothing - everything was great.
• sharon (10/5): Excellent interiors finishes and good communication by Host - High spec interior finishes and well designed
• Fern (10/5): Unreal Stay - The property is beautiful and clean. Decorated so nicely, a real haven. So close to stow on the wold, was lovely to stay in the town. The property had everything we needed and more. I loved that music was playing on our arrival and the smell was like a spa. Nothing.
• chana (7/5): Lovely host, great place - would 100% recommend - Lovely and modern, warm, clean, everything provided Unfortunately dogs not allowed on furniture & could not park there after checkout
• Teo (9/5): Unique property in an ideal location with a superb host - Really unique property with outstanding ergonomics/fixtures and fittings. Location was a stone’s throw from the centre of Stow. Really good stay and excellent hist Chose this property as a selling point was an EV charging point. Public charging EVs is a royal pain in the proverbial when you’re on holiday so the fact the charging point didn’t work was a let-down.
• Andreas (9/5): i would definitely revisit this place. it was amazing - We liked the location, the decor, the facilities, the comfort and the cosiness It would have been nice to have small TVs in the bedrooms, a nespresso machine instead of the bean to cup machine (which was too complex to use) and a bigger couch.
• CNoyes (10/5): Beautifully designed maisonette - As well as being very clean, and in a great location, the maisonette is absolutely stunning! So well designed and very welcoming, we're taking some ideas for our house. The host was communicative and friendly, giving great recommendations for the area as well as clear instructions on how to find the place, where to park and the check in and check out process was very easy. I would definitely recommend staying here and we will try to again when we come back to Stow. Nothing.
• Bec (10/5): Perfection!! The only place to stay! - It’s so very beautiful, every little detail is thought of and the house is so very comfortable. The perfect location. Nothing - it was amazing!
• Taj (10/5): Stow on the Wolds - Everything...the apartment was 1st class, clean, beautifully maintained, fantastic location, and a great time was had by all. Everything was spot on
• Charlotte (10/5): Fabulous place! Great location. Would highly recommend. - We absolutely loved the property and found it very charming. The interior decor and furnishings give it a high-end and inviting feel. It’s clean, very comfortable, well looked after, and had some additional touches that we all appreciated. Location is very good with an easy stroll into the centre of the village and having a parking space is also invaluable. There wasn’t anything we didn’t like, really couldn’t fault it.
• Penny (10/5): Great location, the interior design was top notch. - Very well presented, quite unique. Everything was considered and covered. .
• Bruno (10/5): Magnificent apartment in a beautiful part of the Cotswolds - Incredible apartment, magnificent decked out with coffee, tea and all shorts of goodies, absolutely next level, Nothing, other thank bathroom being downstairs, and door lock being a little difficult
• Ute (10/5): Alles perfekt, die Wohnung, die Lage, die Ausstattung, der Kontakt mit dem Vermieter, alles reibungslos -
• Beth (10/5): Amazing and Simple - Homely, accommodating and good quality accommodation. Perfect for our stay and had all the facilities we needed. Easy instructions and great location for what we needed it for. Would stay again :) N/A
• Linda (10/5): - Beautiful home with everything you would need for a trip away. Location is perfect and we will come back again. Nothing
• Nick (10/5): Beautiful apartment in Stow on the Wold - Beautifully fitted out. Great location in the Cotswolds. Despite messages from the owner, it’s a little hard to find. Maybe a little plaque out the front?
• Julia (10/5): Fantastic Place - We stayed at the Architect’s house for a weekend in August and it was absolutely perfect. The accommodation is beautifully designed and has some really unique personal touches such as sweets, toiletries, tea and coffee, and cleaning items, which made for relaxing stay. The owner is friendly and helpful and sent across some excellent recommendations. I can not recommend enough, the property is in a quiet but central location with parking. We have already been looking to book again soon. Absolutely Nothing, it’s perfect !
• Sophie (9/5): Beautiful Cotswolds stay, exactly like the photos. Gold bath is incredible!!! - Very clean property and it was beautiful. The host was lovely and gave us lots of recommendations of places to go nearby and any questions we had he was right on hand to answer them. Exactly like the photos and it was great for our 2 night stay. We loved everything but if we were to stay longer the beds could have been bigger (they were really comfy though) and a better coffee machine. That is being really picky though, we had an outstanding time and would recommend it to anyone. My parents are already looking to book after seeing our photos
• Mitchell (10/5): -
• Jane (10/5): - Set in a very central but quiet location in the town of Stow - close to all the amenities and restaurants. The flat is beautifully decorated and immaculately clean. There's even a basket of dog towels! The sunny courtyard garden has lovely comfortable furniture - altogether a very pleasurable stay. Impossible to think of things we didn't like. Not a complaint but we couldn't find small bowls to put nibbles in!!
• Gillian (10/5): A real gem in a perfect location - Everything was perfect. Host communicated very clearly. Apartment was exceptional. Location spot on. Nothing
• Joanne (10/5): Wonderful Cotswold retreat for our visit to the air tattoo. Great base and the house was perfect. - Beautiful furniture and fittings. Umbrellas that we could borrow, the owners have thought of everything, even sweets in jars. Exceptionally clean, great powerful shower and free standing bath. Nothing to complain about
• Stephen (10/5): Beautiful apartment, great location. - The apartment is very stylish and very well thought out. Everything you needed and more. The two bedrooms are of almost identical size so no arguing. Easy distance from town and surrounding villages. As a personal preference I would have liked at least a toilet on the same floor as the bedrooms - but I can see that it probably wouldn't be possible.
• Scott (10/5): An outstanding property, we will defo book again - Great property, ideally located in Stow, great interior with everything you need for a stay in the Cotswolds, the owner was great with great communication both pre and during our stay. Nothing, it was excellent
• Elizabeth (9/5): Superb - Actually a real home from home Nothing everything was good
• Kim (10/5): Beautiful property in the stunning Cotswolds - It was beautifully decorated, clean, very comfortable with superb location and parking. N/a
• Eleanor (10/5): Exceptional -
• Heather (10/5): Perfect retreat while visiting the Cotswolds - Stylish, comfortable, quiet apartment. Great location - walk everywhere in Stow. Central location in the Cotswolds. Very helpful host - gave us lots of local tips!
• Diane (10/5): Excellent. Relaxing and very comfortable. - To relax and enjoy walks with the dog.
• Andrea (9/5): Super relaxing place to stay in Stow - Beautifully decorated and extremely well presented property. Super clean and tidy. Everything you could possibly need has been thought of. We felt very relaxed in the comfortable environment. We loved it! Nice and quiet for sleeping even with the velux open as off the main road. Very handy to have your own off road parking place in the middle of Stow. Everything is super close to walk to in Stow itself, there is a plethora of coffee shops, pubs,even a Michelin star restaurant plus much much more. There’s also a handy M&S food at the end of the road located in the petrol station.
• Rebecca (10/5): The most wholesome feeling at this property. A warm and cosy apartment with stunning surrounding. The locals are so frie - Highly recommended. Stunning property with attention to detail. A host who thinks about their guests from the minute you step through the door. The decor is sensational.
• Susan (10/5): Exceptional -
• Sally (10/5): Luxury accomodation, perfectly located. - Decor and spec was really high quality and spotlessly clean. Kitchen was well stocked and had everything you could need. The complementary sweets were a great hit for our children! Location fabulous, just a couple of mins walk from central shops and pubs. Great communication from host too. With it decorated for Christmas, it was the perfect festive cosy stay! Thank you. Nothing - couldn’t fault a thing.
• Sarah (10/5): Fabulous in all ways - The property is exceptional, ideally located just a short walk from the square. The stunning design of the property, quality of the decor and furnishings, attention to the small details such as quality toiletries, towels, bedding and kitchenware all created a comfortable and amazing stay. Spotlessly clean. Great communication and information on local recommendations from the owner. Thank you, we will be back! None
• Louise (9/5): Superb -
• Sophia90 (9/5): Great and we would consider returning the next time we visit. - Location is great. Host very helpful. Has most things you could need at property and has been refurbished to a fantastic standard. Everything was fab, only slight gripe, which I will say is out of the hosts control, is that the person who lives downstairs can be quite noisy early in the morning by playing music loudly and singing.
• Mina (10/5): A taste of luxury in the heart of the Cotswolds. - The apartment was beautiful! It was spotlessly clean and unlike any of the holiday homes we have booked before. Hard to find fault with the quality of the interior and facilities. It’s clear to see how much time has gone into creating such a fantastic space. Location is also great, just a few minutes walk to Stow. We had such a great time and I’d recommend a stay to anyone! It’s hard to find fault but if I was being really picky, I’d say the beds could be a little bigger but honestly, a very tiny detail!
• Olivia (10/5): Excellent weekend stay - Beautiful duplex apartment. Lovely decoration and facilities, right in the centre of stow. Handy off road parking. Owner really helpful. Will definitely be back.
• Tiny (9/5): Great apartment for a stay in the Cotswolds - We stayed for 3 nights and were situated great in the center of the town and for our trip in the Cotswolds. It has a free personal parking place. The owner was very friendly and helpfull. We loved how they managed to have so much light in the apartment and loved the fragrences in the rooms. The bedrooms are below the roof, but you can open the windows to have fresh cool air inside. In short, we had everything we needed! The beds are rather small and duvets were for us too warm for summer.
• Christophe (10/5): Amazing flat and location, and super nice host! - The place was easy to find. The host was extremely helpful and gave clear instructions. The apartment was clean, modern and tidy, and it was perfectly located, super close to the centre in one of the best villages we've visited in the region.
• Aditya (10/5): It is simply gorgeous and comfortable. - The attention to detail. The upkeep. The modern design. The cookies and the candies. The selection of teas. The gadgets. Highly recommend it. Can’t wait to be back. No dryer. The narrow step outside the shower cubicle very tricky and dangerous. The height of the bedrooms due to the slanting roofs. The bed sizes.
