A lovely base to explore the Cotswold's. The cottage was ideal for us and our dogs Olive and Darcey. Great local walks, and places to see so close by every day was different and we had amazing weather. Thank you for the welcome coffee and walnut cake and dog treats . Was made to feel very welcome in the Ram and recommend eating there also. Hope to revisit next year
