    We absolutely loved our stay here – the whole experience was magical from start to finish. The cottage itself is full of character and charm, really clean, and beautifully kept. Every detail felt thoughtful, and it had a really cosy, welcoming atmosphere. We slept well and found the beds very comfy. There is parking right outside. The outdoor pool is very close, right next to the village shop! The cottage is tucked away in an award-winning village that feels like something out of a storybook. There's a fantastic little village shop just a short stroll away, and we especially loved visiting the Cotswold Woollen Weavers – full of history and beautiful local textiles. We also took a day trip to Bath (very easy drive ~1hr) and had an unforgettable visit to the nearby wildlife park – including watching two rhinos having a dramatic standoff! This is a perfect spot for anyone looking to unwind, explore the Cotswolds, and enjoy a truly special slice of English countryside. We’d come back in a heartbeat and can’t recommend it enough!

    A great spot for a short break. The village is quiet and their are good pubs nearby. The directions were clear and took us right to the door. Very handy community shop with a good range of essentials. Community playground for small children.

    We loved our stay here. Perfect for our family. Very comfortable beds and well equipped kitchen. The staircases require careful navigation, not for those with mobility issues, but this charming cottage provides a taste of the Cotswolds that you won’t forget. We’ll hopefully return here on our next trip to the area.

    Great stay in terms of the cottage itself as well as proximity to all the nice attractions and restaurants in the area

    We appreciate the cottage was old and quirky but we should have been told it was unsuitable for the elderly! My 86 yr old mom struggled to get up the stairs as they were old, sloping and had no handrail. There were large black flies continuously flying around in all the rooms. The carbon monoxide monitor didn't work and when we got in there was a worrying smell which we reported but it wasn't investigated.. We didn't see a smoke alarm. There was a hole in the floor under the bunk bed and also water damage to the wall in the same room. Lovely old cottage tho in a great part of the Cotswolds.

    We had a great stay at Gasson's View to visit family in Filkins. It's a charming space, perfect for our party of 7 to relax, and enjoy. The property manager even left us some treats in the fridge and some fresh Cotswold eggs. We'll be back!

    Gassons View is a lovely little cottage oozing character in the cutest of villages with a fantastic pub near by. We stayed for 2 nights and generally enjoyed our stay. We played games by the fire and slept well but would say we were disappointed by the condition of the property. The garden was very overgrown and scruffy, there was mould on the wall in the bunk room right by the bed and the whole place looked in need of a deep clean and freshen up (we found dead flies, cobwebs and wood louse). Not what we expected for the price. Otherwise beds were very comfy and it was very peaceful. I think management need to inspect the property and get the owners to have a good spring clean, garden tidy, clean windows and fix the mould before renting it out again.

    The cottage is much larger than it looks in photos and the village is absolutely idyllic. Perfect for families and couples alike
