, this was definitely the best we have had. It was excellent in all respects, a real home from home and I could happily have lived there. That was before factoring in the location.

The outside space had a canopy which meant we were able to sit out as the weather though warm was often wet. The road to the cottage is narrow but that is the case with a lot of Gloucestershire roads and villages, and parking is good. Would recommend Bath ( park and ride from Landsdown) Cirencester, Slimbridge and the magnificent GLoucester Catherdral. Nailsworth is well placed for them all. And DO NOT LEAVE before sampling an Winston's ice cream from their premises on the common. :-)
