Great location short walk into Bourton on the water were plenty to see & do, loads of places to eat and drink. Location fab for travelling round the Cotswolds and it’s not far from anything.So peaceful and quiet great to sit on the balcony and watch the days go by as well as all the different wildlife. Proprietors are very welcoming and happy to help with directions. Will return 100%

Lack of height in the hall was an issue moving from room to room. Banged my head several times in bedroom and living room due to low ceilings.Never happy when you are unable to control the heating .Having said that the view was great everything you needed was available and spotlessly clean.
