      It would be 5 stars but there was no welcome hamper and no instruction manual for use of television or heating

      Very pretty cottage and garden with all facilities needed. Also in an excellent location for exploring the Cotswolds

      The cottage feels very tired and is expensive compared to what was available in the Chipping Campden area over bank holiday weekend. - we needed to stay in Ilmington for family reasons so there was in fact only the Glen that had the right number of bedrooms. Carpets were stained / glasses a miss match / bathrooms need a re-vamp / back yard & garden areas needed attention. The cottage however was clean and the bedding first rate.
