Guest Reviews
- Watcharamonthian (9/5): - Very nice vibe
- Tsutomu (8/5): 静かで良いところです。 - 朝食が美味しい 宿泊料金が高い
- Séverine (10/5): So cute! - Nous avons passé une nuit dans ce B&B tellement charmant. Tout est mignon, chaque élément de décoration est choisi avec goût. Tout est de fait pour qu'on s'y sente bien. Le petit déjeuner était délicieux et lui aussi présenté avec beaucoup de soins. Nous avons adoré ce séjour dans la campagne anglaise au charme tellement British.
- Chloe (10/5): -
- CAMILLA (10/5): - Cottage molto confortevole personale accogliente e super disponibile Letto un po stretto per due
- vee H (9/5): Superb would recommend - The cottage itself was wow.
Owner really thought of everything
Bedrooms, spaces everything was great.
Parking great Shower was awful but the bathroom itself was great.
Had to wait 25mins longer for check in time as they was completing the cleaning.
- Barbara (10/5): - What a beautiful place to visit. We loved staying at the property and the wonderful customer service from top notch!
- Lal (10/5): Lovely - The cottage we stayed in was super cute and cozy. It had two floors with two bathrooms and two rooms. It was super nice and felt like a home! ---
- Luisa (10/5): -
- Jim (10/5): Outstanding - Location, room was cozy and thoughtfully decorated, with unexpected touches in the room Nothing
- Rodrigo (10/5): Incrível, principalmente o café da manhã! - Local muito bonito e aconchegante. Café da manhã maravilhoso, com atendimento incrível. Recomendo a acomodação. Região muito bonita, estacionamento no local.
- Kathleen (9/5): Classy B & B with good breakfast and location. - It was absolutely gorgeous in a good location within walking distance to the trout ponds in Bibury. The decor was classy and fun, the bed was so comfortable. The breakfast was fresh and excellent. Parking was free and easy. We couldn’t get the heat to work, but we were ok after we closed the curtains and dove under the fluffy comforter. The shower was spacious but tricky to adjust.
- Alwyn (8/5): -
- Christine (10/5): Fantastic and relaxing break in a beautiful B&B - Great location vey stylish decor fantastic breakfast and service There is nothing we didn’t like
- Gerd (5/5): -
- Arianna (9/5): -
- Tosi Ricci Oddi (8/5): -
- Julie (6/5): Reasonable but wouldn’t return - Location excellent
Comfortable bed
Breakfast tasted nice Room 2
Bathroom door didn’t close, this was given in previous feedback and not corrected
We were told a time when to go to breakfast
Family room above very noisy woken at 5.45am
No milk in room although tea bags
Breakfast was chaos on first day better on day two just given wrong food
- Alexa (8/5): Comfortable stay - We stayed in a cottage which was clean and good sized bedrooms and was well equipped. There’s a small tight car park which didn’t have any spaces and no on road parking.When returning at 2am we had to park out the front of the property not seeing the restricted parking from 8-6 and we got a parking ticket- so beware!
The shower head in our cottage needs descaling- not powerful and goes off in all directions!
There’s also a random safe in the kitchen cupboard which when opened had a stained towel in there?!!
Perhaps there could be a sign saying no ball games? Kids were playing in the small car park with a football at 8am on Sunday morning…
- Maxine (10/5): -
- Jamie (10/5): Perfect - Breakfast was great N/a
- ZAHRAH (8/5): -
- Audrey (7/5): -
- Nicola (10/5): Perfect location and excellent place to stay - I had a truly wonderful stay at this place and would highly recommend it to anyone looking for a cozy, relaxing getaway.
From the moment I arrived, I was made to feel completely at home. The hosts were incredibly warm and welcoming, always happy to help with local tips or simply have a friendly chat. Their attention to detail really stood out and made the whole experience feel personal.
The room had everything you could need and more, and it was spotless. I especially appreciated the comfortable bed and the peaceful atmosphere—it made for a fantastic night’s sleep. The breakfast in the morning was incredible, I couldn't fault anything, and I will definitely be staying again.
- Anna (9/5): Fantastisk ställe att stanna till på och njuta av det vackra. - Vackra miljöer. Mysig by med genuin känsla av engelska landsbygden. Vi gillade puben en kort promenad från boendet.
Frukosten serverades på ett litet café och var bästa frukosten på hela resan!
Mycket bra kommunikation med ägarna. Saknade en hårtork.
- ichikawa (10/5): 前の日のメールが気にかかるが宿自体は泊まってよかった - ロケーション最高だった 前の日の確認メールに朝ごはんはお金がかかるとか支払いのリンクが届いて驚いた。支払いはブッキング.comで支払い済みだったし朝食もincludedだったから
旅行中にも関わらず宿にコンタクトしたがすぐ返事をもらえずブッキングドットコムにはきちんと返事もらえて支払い済みだし朝食もあると
宿からようやく返事がもらえた際にはたった一言you are fineだった すみません間違ったメールを送ったとか心配させましたとかないんだね。 支払いダブルでしなくてよかった。
- Lawrence (9/5): The kitchen staff made the stay very enjoyable, it was good to see their faces first thing in the mo - The kitchen staff were excellent very helpful and could not do enough, they are a big asset to the business. Breakfast was cooked to perfection. I loved the home mixed granola it was so tasty and very enjoyable. We stayed in bedroom three.
The bedroom needs placement matts supplied to stand the tea cups on as it is marking the furniture.
- Enka (10/5): Loved our stay at the cottages. Thank you so much ☺️ - Clean, spacious & great quiet location. None
- Wesley (10/5): Unbelievable - Ricardo and Linda was the absolute best hosts! They made us feel at home and very comfortable.
Breakfast was beautiful, the service was 10/10
Felt like we knew Ricardo and Linda very well! Kind caring and considerate
When we come back to the Cotswolds we will be staying here again
Thank you for making us feel very welcome
Wes and Kirsty. Room 2 Nothing not too like
- Micol (9/5): -
- Grace (5/5): - The bed was lovely and comfortable. The views were also great. There was stains on the sofa and the bins weren’t changed from the previous owner which left the kitchen smelling so bad that we needed to close the door.
- Md Shafiqul Islam (9/5): Alll the facilities available as promised. Nice place to stay. - Breakfast was good. The owner was very friendly. Offered us to park our car at the hotel parking even after checkout. Advised us place to visit and shared some other local information.
- MIEKO (7/5): -
- Hannah (7/5): -
- Christine (10/5): Very enjoyable stay - Very nice place, great location, great breakfast Nothing
- Alison (5/5): - I was appreciative of the fact that when I asked for wine glasses, they were delivered promptly
The living area downstairs was spacious and easily accommodated the four of us We were in the Grayling Cottage and found the traffic noise to be significant. The bathroom adjoining the room with the two single beds had quite an odour.
A lighter duvet cover would have been better in light of the warm weather- or alternatively a fan so we could close the windows to cut out the traffic noise
Even though our cottage was self catering I think it would not be too much to provide a small bottle of milk for guests- there was no milk provided
- Nigel (10/5): -
- Vanessa (10/5): -
- Katarzyna (9/5): A very pleasant and comfortable stay - Lovely family room, well equipped with everything we needed. The breakfast was excellent with a great variety of options. The only minor issue was that the radiator in the bathroom was not working.
- Douglas (10/5): Absolutely wonderful - Excellent location - short walk down to the river, large and spacious unit with everything we needed. Beautiful setting
- Joseph (9/5): Excellent except bed - Great host and location and food The bed was unfortunately quite small for two people and very uncomfortable.
- Delves (10/5): -
- Gemma (8/5): Good location, overpriced and doesn't include breakfast - The location is ideal and the rooms / bathrooms were a decent size. Catered well for breakfast requests. Useful that you get a car parking space too. That despite it being advertised as a 'B&B' you don't get breakfast included and are required to pay an additional £15 for breakfast if you want it.
Our bathroom door didn't close (Room 2) and the floor and skirting boards were dirty in the bathroom. It is quite a noisy property (i.e. can hear people in rooms above and below) - made it seem expensive for one night at £248.
- Melinda (10/5): - Lovely room, comfortable bed, great shower, easy walk to Bibury. Communication is easy, early check-in available for a fee. We loved the breakfast!
- Richard (9/5): very cosy and personal service . - Excellent breakfast, great service and good choice. We ordered off the menu the night before and all confirmed on time. Coffee & tea.
- Rachel (10/5): Beautiful property, stunning location! - Stunning property, easy to check in, beautiful surroundings and all furnished to a high standard! Couldn’t have asked for more! Nothing
- ROBIN (10/5): -
- Gabriella (10/5): THANK YOU ! - Fabulous hotel, great location & Riccardo, the hotel manager, ensured that every part of our stay was excellent!!!
- Luca (10/5): -
- Lynn (10/5): Very comfortable - Ricardo , so welcoming No full length mirror in our room
- nilgün (7/5): tekrar gitmeye düşünmem - konumu kahvaltı zayıf,
be
- Lothar (10/5): - Unkompliziert, freundlich, komfortabel
- Chloe (9/5): Lovely little getaway spot! - Lovely little 2 bedroom cottage. Very clean and cosy, a great little get away celebrating our friendships. The staff was super responsive and helpful. Absolutely lovely and had a brilliant time
- Maruska (9/5): -
- Juliet (9/5): - Great location. Friendly staff and great breakfast. Some trouble with the shower
- Jeffrey (6/5): - Good location just outside of town. We book what was advertised as a cottage but it looked like a converted garage.
- John (10/5): Perfect spot to explore one of the prettiest villages and surrounding countryside - The place is perfect from gaining entry, parking, location to Ricardo providing breakfast and a chat N/A
- Nidal (6/5): - Bed was terrible
- Shona (8/5): Over all a lovely accomodation but would be better with a more comfortable bed and less noise. - Location of Cotteswold house is fabulous. Our host was friendly engaging and helpful. The breakfast option was good. The room was delightfully furnished, the linen clean and crisp. The bed was very firm and not overly comfortable. During the wee hours of the morning a rather loud machinery noise (boiler?) started and continued throughout this was annoying and loud enough to keep waking me
- shaoqiao (9/5): -
- Tara (10/5): Great keep it up - Great comfy and clean Na
- Yamin (9/5): -
- Vecchio (9/5): -
- Ahmed (10/5): -
- Jennie (9/5): Perfect for short stay in picturesque Cotteswolds with everything in walking distance. - Cosy and clean. Such a lovely area. Walk to lovely buildings and lanes, including Arlington row. Trout farm and pub for dinner. Great cafe for breakfast. Parking off street provided.
- Terry (10/5): -
- Andrea (9/5): -
- Giuseppina (8/5): Ottimo stop per visitare le COTSWOLDS - La stanza è molto bella. Divisa in due parti. Una con due letti separati e una con il letto matrimoniale . Colazione ottima . Il secondo giorno non camera nessuno a prepararla ma ci hanno offerto la colazione in un bar molto bello a 3 min a piedi dall’hotel dove abbiamo mangiato molto bene Poco spazio per aprire le valigie. Non ci hanno fatto le pulizie il secondo giorno (forse perché avevamo dimenticato di mettere il cartellino alla porta ?)
- Samantha (10/5): -
- Stephen (9/5): -
- Nikolaus (9/5): Eine Top-Unterkunft mit einer fantastischen Lage in einer romantischen, wunderschönen Gegend - Die Lage und die Freundlichkeit des Unterkunftgebers waren top, die Ausstattung mit sehr schnellen WLAN ebenso!
Es war sehr sauber und gepflegt und ich kann dieses Cottage nur weiterempfehlen. Leider waren das Doppelbett schon sehr klein, sodass wir es bevorzugt haben, auf zwei Einzelbetten stattdessen zu schlafen.
- Sally (8/5): - Ricardo was very welcoming and helpful. His cooking was excellent and the quality of ingredients really appreciated.
The room was very tastefully furnished, decorated and equipped. For the money we paid, I'd hoped for a 5' bed as the room was described as deluxe. Perhaps that is Bibury prices though!
The bedside lights stopped working ... though very snazzy with remote control! Perhaps battery is dead?
- Emmet (10/5): - The house was beautiful. Simple as that. The staff were great and very friendly. We loved every minute of our stay. N/A
- Kurt (8/5): -
- MeliItalia (9/5): -
- Qi (10/5): -
- JULIEN (7/5): Tout à fait correct. - Établissement correct et bien placé. Le propriétaire est très sympa. Chambre de standing moyen.
- Nicky (3/5): Disappointing - The property was nicely decorated and the furnishings and beds were comfortable. Lovely towels and toiletries. The kitchen was well equipped with everything you might need. The unattractive building site just outside and the incredible awful drilling noise through the wall that woke us up first thing in the morning and continued on into the morning.
The description indicated it was a courtyard cottage but there is a hedge planted right outside the downstairs window and through the hedge is the carpark. The downstairs was therefore quite dark. The door opens onto the carpark. I would call it an apartment rather than a cottage.
The shower was in the bath and the screen leaked and flooded the end of the bathroom. The shower head needed descaling. The downstairs toilet got stuck on flush all night of our second night and kept my son awake.
The bedrooms have velux windows so there’s no view and being in the roof, they got very hot as the weather was hot. Fans were provided but they are noisy.
We complained about the drilling noise and the staff asked the builders to stop drilling but they went round the side and continued to use electric saws and machinery all morning so our stay was spoilt.
I complained and asked for a refund. I was offered an apology and 2 nights free stay once the building work was over. As I don’t intend to return to Bibury, I asked again for a refund. I am still waiting for a resolution from Booking.com.
- Jane (6/5): Tradition Cotswold location - Location brilliant ,attended a wedding and close enough to walk to.
Nice quiet location on main road but our cottage was the middle one
Host very nice
Lovely village Accommodation a little tired in places ,could do with a small upgrade,kitchen for example.
Freezer needs defrosting so much ice.
Edges and corners not governed cobwebs and dust
No tea coffee but did leave us milk.
A few more towels would have been handy
- Richard (9/5): Superb -
- Khadijah (8/5): Very good -
- Lynn (9/5): Just feedback - Welcoming first impression. Good Location. Homely. Mostly very clean. Efficiency obtaining key. Short walk to local pub with a good menu. Would recommend and return Few minor things .... not complaining. You ask for feedback.
Water left in kettle ,,,,,legioneers. We didnt know how long there.
Water left in iron......could Stain clothes
Found Huge amount of dust behind bedside table in double room when looking for a plug.
No egg cups ! Minor.
Parking tight got blocked in.. 10am departure bit too early generally.
- Wendy (9/5): Very comfortable stay in a beautiful location. Cotteswold House is full of character, and serves an excellent breakfast. - Lots of character; excellent breakfast; very comfortable night’s sleep. Nothing; everything was excellent.
- Louis (10/5): Lovely staff, lovely place to stay in an amazing part of the uk will definitely be coming back again! - Very cosy and clean accommodation in a very lovely location Only issue we found was the shower liked to leak a lot of water onto the floor as the glass shield let water through., but this is only a minor thing and didn’t take away from the stay at all / experience at all
- Elizabeth (9/5): Charming and peaceful B&B - Breakfast choices were very good and served in a speady and pleasant manner Location was excellent within a short walk to walking trails and main town intersection.
- Erik (10/5): Very nice place, close to all we wanted to see in Bibury 👍 -

- Emma (10/5): Exceptional - Great position, very clean room and comfortable bed, very friendly people made us a lovely breakfast.
- Elizabeth (9/5): had a wonderful stay here - Excellent English Breakfast. Charming rooms with quiet relaxing atmosphere and excellent location Could have provided maps of local areas especially the foot paths since there are many available but guests are unsure whether they ar private or public and where they lead too.
- Jeri (10/5): Great place in a beautiful area. Well worth the stay - Location was perfect. We walked into town and also to hiking trails right from the apartment. We appreciated that there were no steps to climb. We bought breakfast separately, and it was very good and convenient. Comfortable beds. We could have used some fans during the hot nights.
- Anna (10/5): Great location to visit surrounding areas of the Cotwolds.Our stay here felt like home. - Very homely.The manager was so friendly and welcoming to us.The homemade breakfast delicious.

- Carla (10/5): Exceptional -
- Iain (4/5): Nothing like what we expected for £200 plus. - Staff and breakfast both very nice. The entire first floor was like a sauna so so hot.
Shower was again scalding hot and unable to get it cooler. Water had very little power anyway.
- Fiona (10/5): Lovely - Very attentive staff. Breakfast was amazing. Room was great. It was a bit hot there
- Philip (10/5): Perfect place, perfect hosts, perfect setting - Perfect in every way. Nothing
