"Excellent and cosy place to spend a quiet week and, if you have the urge, somewhere from which you can take off and explore Oxford and the surrounding area. Every piece of equipment worked except the security key holder which would not close, and one portable heater, even though I replaced the fuse in its plug. Combined CD player and radio also a bit of a mystery! A really good feature is the open hearth and the chance to have a fire - logs were supplied but if you want more go to B and Q or Homebase just down the road into Abingdon after the A34 interchange. Best local pub is the Merry Miller at Cothill - good food and drink and log fires. Beware of a very busy road just beyond the lane on which the Cottage stands. Cars are driven at well over the 40 MPH limit supposedly in force. Not easy for pedestrians. Information left for visitors very thorough."

"S16105 is beautiful and the location is amazing. We've just returned from a four night stay and would certainly like to think we'll return. The cottage was lovely and clean, the decor was great and the beds were the most comfortable we've ever slept on. We also really appreciated the welcome supplies that were left for us. Parking was not an issue and we were there on a bank holiday which a local told us was the busiest day they had this year. It is a short, and very pleasant walk up to the car park, and there are also parking spaces out the front where we could usually get a space in the evening.Our days included trips to the beautiful towns of Stow, Moreton in Marsh, Cirencester and we had the most beautiful walk from the cottage up to Lower and Upper Slaughter - stunning! The rest of the time we enjoyed Bourton itself and felt very lucky."

"Chub locks but only one key, so if one of us went out and one stayed in, one of us was either locked in or locked out, or the house was left unlocked, when one of us was sleeping for example, absolutely ridiculous.Bed in main bedroom very very very creaky, we had to sleep in separate beds so we didn’t disturb each other.No corkscrew or bottle opener.I’m not tall, but had to crouch or sit in Bath as shower head too low.Several bulbs not working on arrival, we found replacements but these should be dealt with on changeover.Overall we felt the cottage showed signs of owners a long way away, which they are (in USA), and a not especially ‘invested’ handover person. Do the owners know there is only one key, do they know about the bed, do they know the front door is rotting, do they know the plants are dead or dying in the back patio?"

"Good cottage, very clean, excellent shower, comfy beds, two chairs in lounge could have been comfier but Ok for short periods. Problem with the fridge/freezer, the fridge part apparently not working and only just kept cool by the freezer below. Brought to the attention of the owner who was unable to get an engineer out until the day we left. The other issue is the fire alarm in the kitchen is so sensitive that every time you open the oven door the fire alarm goes off. The solution is to take or buy a cheap shower cap to put over he alarm when cooking. Remember though to remove it afterwards!Handy location for several counties and the main section of the Cotswolds."

"We were very disappointed that the details omitted to describe accurately this property.There is no mention of a spiral staircase from the ground floor to the first floor. a distinct disadvantage for older people who may have some minor disabilities or for those with very young families.The bathroom has strip hazard of a small step at the entrance and has low beam neither of which are described in the details. The shower over the bath is difficult to use because of the sloping end of the bath and anyone over 1.8 metres tall will have difficulty standing under the shower due the the lack of head room and low ceiling."
