About this cottage rental
Otters Abode is a converted Cotswold stone barn in the heart of Blockley, one of the North Cotswolds' most characterful villages. The open-plan living and dining area rises to a full-height 17ft barn ceiling, with a comfortable lounge and a fully fitted kitchen with dishwasher. It's a good space for cooking a relaxed dinner after a day of exploring.
The downstairs master bedroom has a King Size bed and a freestanding roll-top slipper bath, so you can soak in the bedroom by candlelight. An iron spiral staircase climbs to a mezzanine twin room, which suits friends or a second couple. The bathroom has a walk-in shower and WC.
Outside, the garden runs alongside the brook, with a terrace for morning coffee or an evening glass of wine to the sound of running water.
Sleeps 4: 1 King (downstairs) and 1 twin (mezzanine) Roll-top slipper bath in the master bedroom Walk-in shower Fully equipped kitchen with dishwasher Central heating throughout Free WiFi and smart/flat-screen TV Private off-road parking Brookside garden and terrace All bed linen and towels providedGuest access
Guests have the whole cottage, terrace and the large shared garden along with private parking. Check-in is self-service.
The neighbourhood
Blockley is a real working Cotswold village with a history of silk mills. It is quieter and less touristy than its famous neighbours, and it's full of honey-stone cottages and footpaths. The award-winning community shop and café are about a 5-minute walk away, and the village has traditional pubs for dinner.
The cottage is a good base for exploring the North Cotswolds:
Batsford Arboretum and Sezincote: about 5 minutes' drive Moreton-in-Marsh (market and train station): about 10 minutes Chipping Campden: about 10 minutes Broadway and Broadway Tower: about 15 minutes Stow-on-the-Wold: about 15 minutes Bourton-on-the-Water: about 25 minutes Hidcote Manor Garden: about 15 minutes Stratford-upon-Avon: about 30 minutes Blenheim Palace: about 45 minutesThe Cotswold Way and many circular walks start from the doorstep, so bring your wellies.
Other things to note
The spiral staircase makes the cottage unsuitable for young children or guests with limited mobility. No pets and no smoking. The cottage is ideal for couples, anniversaries, honeymoons and friends' weekends away.

We stayed at Otters Abode Cottage in May for five days.
The accommodation was really cosy and nice.
The cottage was warm and clean; we appreciated the beautiful garden with the small stream running through it.
The place was quiet and immersed in nature.
The location is very convenient for travelling around the Cotswolds and not too far from Oxford.
Nick and Fiona were really kind and promptly attentive to our requests.
Highly recommended for a short stay in the Cotswolds!

This place has lots of potential! It’s beautiful, the neighborhood is perfect and it’s easy to visit the other villages. Negatives: upstairs is very musty. There are quite a few cracks in the ceiling that are holding moisture and need to be sealed so my throat was sore the entire time I was at the property. It was not very clean. Lots of cobwebs in high traffic areas, dishes had food stuck to them, everything in the space was clearly second hand (pans were rusted and scraped) heat didn’t work upstairs the first night but then did the rest of the trip so it must be a faulty connection. Coffee and a functioning coffee maker is a must for rentals especially so isolated so having only one pod for multiple people available for a 4 day stay is pretty cheap. If these things are adjusted and the place is thoroughly cleaned between stays then this could be a wonderful place for the price but it was definitely not up to par with the other places we stayed in the area for cheaper.
