What a beautiful space tucked away behind the high street! A really well thought out design of a loft apartment. Myself, my partner and pooch stayed for 1 night. The bathtub was luxurious, amenities provide everything you need. Location was great. Great communication from the hosts when needed.

Property was absolutely stunning! Easy check in and in a great location - excellent facilities, tea coffee sugar and milk provided, kitchen facilities and towels. Place was spotless
Only down side was it was very noisy at night with the cars and lorry’s going past but that’s no fault of the hosts

It’s absolutely stunning!! So picturesque and cosy and absolutely perfect location. We met the guys who manage the property by chance who gave good recommendations and were absolutely lovely too.
I might just recommend one of the pans has a very loose handle, maybe replacing that and the freezer door was held closed by a timber piece, just only wish we’d known before opening! And maybe instructions on using the hob as it took us ages to realise the pan was too light for the ring to activate 😅😂 very very minor small things, wouldn’t make any difference to us rebooking and w43 so happy we stayed there !

Very comfortable sofa and bed.
Cosy but spacious apartment.
Apartment as a whole was very nice, all the facilities you need.
Fresh Milk & bread were left upon arrival which was nice.
Get the boiler and/or pipes sorted, had to watch the boiler whilst trying to fill the bath with hot water.
The tap in the kitchen and the Bath tap need tightening up, they were quite loose/wobbly.
Few cobwebs in some places, mainly ceiling lights, but the rest of the room was clean, tidy & smelt pleasant.
And one of the handles on the 4 slice toaster is missing so can only use 1 side

Beautiful place, well designed, would stay here again, really cosy!
Needs a little bit of maintenance, I suspect it’s due to this being used a lot. Very minor though. Just a few fixes and would have been a 10/10. Pans may need replacing but still useable.

Cody little apartment, really well appointed and decorated, super comfortable bed and loved the bath.
Very close to the road so the traffic could be noise, but the double glazing is very effective.

Convenience, well equipped kitchen and comfortable lounge and bedroom
No mention of being up narrow stairs, made it a little difficult for getting out heavy suitcases up and down

The property is beautiful. It was a lovely place to stay.
We struggled to use the oven/microwave combination unit. I had to Youtube the instructions .

Very well laid out and all amenities lovely, worked well and everything needed. Location was excellent.
I had missed that the whole property was on the first floor, which was totally my mistake. This wasn’t a problem but just made taking dogs in and out a little more difficult.

Lovely decorations, clean and comfortable.
Not a big deal for a few nights, but the shower overflowed into the bathroom slightly.

Perfect from the moment we opened the door. Such great utilisation of a small space but had everything we needed. Beautiful bath and a bed that felt like we were sleeping on cotton wool.
There really wasn’t anything not to like.

No towel in toilet.

Really comfortable and had everything we needed. Bread and milk on arrival was a lovely touch. The location was great and instructions to get into the property were really simple and easy to follow. The whole apartment felt really luxurious and a treat to stay in. We especially loved the decor.
Door to icebox in fridge was broken, cracked bowl in cupboard, “free toiletries” in bathroom seem to be what other people have left behind, just a few tiny details that didn’t match the luxury of the property.

The apartment was beautiful, one of the nicest we've stayed at. It's immaculately decorated. Perfect location, behind the high Street of Chipping Norton, which is a five minute walk away. Lovely comfy bed. Bread and milk provided which was a nice touch.
Missing a few small amenities; tea towel, bath sheets etc (however it does say upon booking to bring your own bath sheets). We also noticed that the shower soaks the bathroom, as the tray part is not low enough compared to the tiles by the bath. We didn't mind, but something to be mindful of, as the few small towels provided were used for this purpose.

The location was central for day visits around the Cotswolds. Shopping very close.
It did not meet our expectations. As the apartment was upstairs it was very hot and stuffy. The windows were difficult to open and need some maintenance. One lounge chair had a broken leg and is a safety issue, this needs repairing. Had to ask for hand towels and dish cloths.

Great location for shops & pubs. Free long stay car park opposite the apartment. Very stylishly decorated. Really clean and comfortable. Very light & airy. Left us bread & milk which was appreciated.
Not being able to arrive earlier than 3.30pm. Quite late when you’re checking out at 11am the next day but I think we could have left at midday.

Spacious, beautifully decorated, very comfortable, nice kitchen and easy walk to town.
The property is on a road that was busy during the day but not a problem at night.

It’s a beautiful apartment with excellent facilities. Easy to park opposite. We were left milk & a beautiful sourdough loaf, which was greatly appreciated. Communication was good & everything worked well. Would highly recommend & hopefully stay again in the future.
All was good.

Lovely apartment. Clean and spacious. Comfortable bed and good amenities. Close proximity to centre and diddly squat farm shop. Appreciated the bread and milk on arrival.
Paintwork could do with being touched up as completely mis matched in quite a few places. Bins needed in bathroom or bedroom. Front door needs replacing as do the windows as all the latches are in a poor state. Maybe some butter for the bread!?

We loved the location, easy to park. very relaxing. we looked at hotels, didn't have the same appeal as the place we stayed in. you can relax, cook your own food. I would recommend this place to anybody who,
like us, just wanted to have time away from home and relax .
Nothing, it was perfect

Beautiful property, exactly as photos present. Decoration lovely and felt very homely. Beautiful bath tub and comfy bed.
Great location in terms of being 5 minute walk from the town which had a range of shops and places to eat. We went to Bitter & Twisted for food which was dog friendly also. The atmosphere was great, staff were polite and food was great.
Could hear traffic on and off as it is a fairly busy road, but this is to be expected with town being so close by.
We used this as a base for visiting Diddly Squat Farm which was only 5/10 minutes away. Again, perfect location for this.
Would highly recommend this property.
Not necessarily the property itself, but I didn’t think before booking about practicalities with dogs. They needed / wanted to go toilet throughout the night which meant having to go up and down stairs, trying to do this quietly with also opening and closing doors.

The apartment was spacious and open planned. The decor was beautiful and it also had a really cosy homely feel to it. Nice little touches with bread and milk left for us. It was also very immaculately clean. It was perfect for chilling in the evenings after busy days sightseeing and we both got a really good nights sleep. The property is on a main road but after a while you didn't notice the traffic outside. We were less than a mile away from diddly squat farm which was the reason for our visit so was perfect and also just 20 mins from Jeremy Clarksons pub TheFarmers Dog where we had the most amazing roast dinner. Also just a couple of mins walk from the apartment was a co op, a couple of really lovely pubs and a bistro that serves really good food. As soon as we walked in I knew we were going to have the most restful weekend and we did
Nothing to dislike as was perfect
