The stay was excellent, but the service from Sykes was very poor.

Not well maintained or cleaned. Garden not mown, ok for dog to use but not nice to look at or to sit out in. Would also be no good for playing football or other games if travelled with kids. House quite dusty. Bathroom and kitchen cleaned, but corners dusty, ceilings dusty. Generally a bit rough around the edges.

Brilliant location in a lovely village. Close to Stow, Daylesford, Kingham and many other lovely villages. Downstairs is good, kitchen well appointed, number of bathrooms/toilets also great.

That was a car parked in the cottage and I couldn’t park my car. There is another cottage being restored in the same property. I had no problem as it was a weekend, but I guess it can be uncomfortable with people working in the renovation just outside of you door during the week days.

Beautiful cottage in a charming village close to Stow on the wold. 300 years building well preserved, comfortable beds and clean

The access to the top floor is very steep - but it is a very old property so difficult to resolve this. We only used the ground and first floors.

Quiet location but close to many attractive villages and towns. Well equipped. There was a decorated Christmas tree which was a nice touch.

The property needs a good deep clean, lots of dirt and cobwebs in corners on the floor and ceilings. Broken toilet seat, paint peeling from woodwork. We had to buy a kettle as the one in the property was over loaded with limescale, so much so chunks of it were going into drinks. The dishwasher made things dirtier, despite us giving it a good clean, filling the salt and rinse aid, and descaling it 4 times. All the mattresses are in need of replacing. All the windows need some maintenance/repair work. The freezer also needs defrosting It was such a shame as it has so much potential to be an amazing stay. For the price we paid I expected far higher standards of cleanliness and comfort.

Lovely old cottage with lots of character and great garden space

Lovely location, very quiet. The cottage was well catered for our needs and good proximity to the cities.

No swimming pool. Shame because plenty of space! Would have been happy to pay a premium for it.

Very cosy, well equipped, private with safe surroundings.

Great location to explore, with a pub a 5 minute walk down the road.

This can not be changed but the boiler used oil and therefore there was a strong smell of oil in the utility room. This was fine as we kept the door shut but I had my car parked outside by the flue, and it has taken a few weeks for the smell of oil to go. Easily resolved, just don't park next to the flue (!!) and it certainly did not take away from our lovely stay here.

This property was perfect for our family weekend. Everywhere was lovely and clean with enough space for us. The location could not be better. Walking distance from Stow on the Wold and a fabulous pub a 2 minute walk away (The Fox Inn). Very dog friendly, although mine did get under the fence (mad Cocker Spaniel will escape from anywhere!). We are definitely planning a return visit!

nothing really. it’s very dark so bring a good torch for walking to the pub in winter 😀

very clean, comfortable and spacious with everything we needed. the kitchen was well equipped and the washer and dryer in the utility room were very useful as we had a 6month old. lovely location and the walk into Stow was a bonus. So many lovely places just a short drive away.

The collapsed building, ruin of the old forgery?, next to the cottage looks bad but doesn't hamper the use of the cottage.

Very cosy cottage in the small village of Broadwell, a half hour walk from Stow-on-the-Wold. A great pub, the Fox, across the village green. The bathrooms have obviously been re-done recently. Great shower. Beds on the first floor are a bit narrow but comfortable. Nice living and well equipped kitchen. Super location.
