"Lovely property. Well equipped kitchen. All as described - just be careful of the low ceilings and the steep staircases. All beautiful features of a lovely Cotswold cottage."

We had a lovely stay. The house has lots of character and is in a lovely village with shop and village pub. Some of the blinds didn't work and the bin didn't close, but those were minor points. We would recommend.

We had a great stay at Gassons view, it was in a great location perfect to get to lots of little villages close by. The house was perfect for 5 adults & our baby too. We could easily park outside the house each night even though there's not an driveway it didn't matter.
6 / 10Average·Dec 2024
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.
