Lovely period property

Lovely clean property in an amazing location. Plenty of room for a family of four with 2 teenage children. Well equipped kitchen and a lovely garden. Lots to do around the area and less than a minute walk from the centre of the village.

Incredible!

This cottage is so well suited and a stone's throw from the sweet town of Bourton-On-Water. The backyard, the many comfortable rooms and the lovely hosts made this one of the best stays I have experienced all over the world. If you are looking for a comfortable home base in a sweet Cotswolds town look no further!

Lovely!

We thoroughly enjoyed our stay at the cottage where we were just a short walk to the store and pubs/restaurants. My kids loved the quirkiness of the house and the room up top was the first one called. I loved the huge bathtub up there! Hoping to come back someday!

Superb!

This cottage has it all. It has three lovely bedrooms a large kitchen and conservatory and a warm friendly lounge. You are never far away from a bathroom as there is one on the ground floor, two using the on suites on the first floor and a final bathroom on the top floor. Location is superb about 40 yards from the centre of the village yet no noise at all. Probably the best cottage that we have ever stayed in. You can't go wrong!

This cottage has it all!

After self catering for more than 25 years, this cottage surpassed any expectations we had. First, it was spotlessly clean. A ground floor half bath, fast wifi, cozy lounge and exceptionally equipped kitchen. I was very impressed with the inclusion of truly sharp kitchen knives, something usually lacking in other houses we've rented. *Be advised that the coffee pot is a French press, so you should have your coffee ground accordingly. There were just two of us but all three bedrooms being ensuite is a big plus for families or friends traveling together. The second (top) floor bathroom was huge and included a tub. The conservatory and garden are lovely. There's a garden bench and four place table in the garden to enjoy on sunny days and a six place table in the conservatory. The location is superb, just a block from the river on a quiet street. There are restaurants, a bakery and food market within a 5 minute walk. We highly recommend The Cloisters for your Bourton on the Water holiday.

Excellently equipped house in a great location

You could not fault the furnishing and equipment provided in this house. We also loved the fact that we were a few minutes from the shops, restaurants and takeaways. As we did not want to cook that much it suited us so well. The house has en suite bathrooms as well as full bathroom and downstairs cloakroom. The en suite were very small and sometimes it was difficult to manage as no where to put anything but that is a very minor grumble as it is so good to have en suite. Personally I would have liked a bigger double bed as that is what I am used to. There is a very nice little walled garden and also a big conservatory that could get very warm when sun came out. While the property does front right onto the street we were not bothered by noise. The odd horse clopping by! It might be nice to have some of information/recommendations about the local area in the house folder although the official information office was just around the corner. I would definitely stay here again and recommend it to others.

Beautiful cottage in a perfect location

I do not have one single negative to report on this property. Everything about it is perfect, the abundance of crockery and cutlery, the beautiful luxury bedding and of course the location. The house is more than comfortable, it is welcoming, homely and decorated beautifully with high quality furnishings. In fact, the photos on the advertisement do not do it justice at all. Just to add, we had to contact the housekeeper whilst we were there and what a lovely lady she is, So helpful, pleasant and more than happy to help. We would return to this rental with not a moments hesitation.

Three weeks at Cloisters cottage,Bourton on water 1st to 19 July 2018

Enjoyed our stay and the Housekeeper was very helpful. The only negative was the non use of the Conservatory area due to the very good summer being experienced--for most of the time we could not sit there because it was too hot. Apart from that was more than adequate and comfortable.
