    We had a lovely stay overall – the house is beautifully furnished, cosy, and perfectly located for countryside walks (our dog was in heaven!). The views across the fields are stunning, and waking up to the mist rising over the valley was truly special. That said, there were a few areas where the experience could have been improved, mostly around comfort and practicalities. The principal bedroom’s en suite had an unpleasant smell that seeped into the room for the first couple of days, though this did clear after running the fan and airing it out. The high chair wasn’t set up on arrival – we eventually found it disassembled in a cupboard after contacting the manager. We also missed having a microwave, as we needed it for sterilising baby equipment, and some of the listed kitchen essentials (like tea, coffee, and sugar) were not provided. A heads-up about the gardener’s early-morning visit would also have been appreciated. The house does creak quite a lot, which is to be expected for an older property, but light sleepers might want to be aware of this. Despite these minor issues, we really enjoyed our stay. It’s a beautiful property in a wonderful setting, and with a few small improvements it could be exceptional. We’d happily recommend it to others.

    We enjoyed our stay at Patch Hill House. The kitchen was especially well equipped with everything we could need to cook during our stay. A very peaceful location with a lovely walking path directly from the house. We had dinner one night at the local pub and it was delicious. Very friendly owner.

    We were very impressed with this property. It is a delightful cottage with everything you could possibly need to have a comfortable stay. The huge garden is a massive bonus and comfortable beds and large kitchen and lounge area are great for relaxing. The only addition we would recommend is that fans are provided during very hot weather and that all windows are able to be opened as the one in bedroom 3 was locked with no key available to open it.

    We spent a wonderful week of summer holidays in this beautiful Cotswold house, hiking, biking, and visiting London and Oxford by train from Charlbury. A very nice house, well furnished, although the kitchen is still lacking a few kitchen utensils. The garden is ideal for children to play.

    Amazing property. Grew up in the area but now live in the US. Could not picture a more perfect and idyllic property for a getaway if you’re after a beautiful setting and space to spread out in true comfort, especially if with young kiddos. We have very discerning taste and this did not disappoint one bit. We will be back for sure. Thank you to the property hosts!

    The property was absolutely lovely and I would happily recommend it to others. Just a few minor comments. It would have been better if there had been clearer information available on both the heating and water heating controls . Also there were bins missing for the refuse so it was very unclear on what to do correctly. The cooking equipment was very good overall but a few more mugs/cups would have been useful.

    The house itself is stunning! Plenty of space and amenities for hosting, lots of kitchen utensils for cooking at the home or space to eat if you order a takeaway! The fire in the lounge makes it so cosy. The entire house was spotless and clean! Would highly recommend to anyone. The Plough Inn pub nearby is a lovely cosy pub if you fancy a drink or a meal out. My only fault would be that although we were aware that checkout is at 10, I have never stayed anywhere where house keeping have turned up at exactly the time of checkout. We were running 10 minutes behind and it felt a shame that they had knocked on the door and told us they would give us 5 mins to be out of the house.

    We really enjoyed our stay. The cottage was very well equipped with great kitchen pots/pans/ coffee machines etc and a gorgeous welcome basket with goodies when we arrived. It was very clean and Claire was so helpful when we spoke. It was easy to find with good parking. We loved the area, being able to walk into open fields at the end of the drive and great to be near pubs in charlbury. Lovely big kitchen and sitting room, we would definitely stay again.
