We’ve stayed at the Old School House twice now and love its location. It does the job for a family of 5. Improvements would be a new sofa in the lounge as it has no support and other chairs are hard backed so not great for relaxing. Whilst plenty of plates etc, cutlery is limited so more would be good. Twin room radiator really only works at 5 and above so room is quite cold normally unless radiator is fully on.

A lovely cottage with everything we needed for a pleasant stay. In a very quite and peaceful location but conveniently situated to be able to easily visit plenty of the attractions in the Cotswolds.
