Winterberry Cottage is lovely and we have stayed there before. The cottage is very comfortable and well furnished and the layout provides a good social space. We had a couple of small issues (e.g. coffee machine not working) but these were fixed for us promptly. The only slightly negative point to mention is that the parking space is very tight and tricky to get into (and once in place it is hard to get out of and around the car(s). Removing the redundant gateposts would make this a little better.

Shower in main bedroom unusable. Sent video to owner. Shower in main bathroom doesn’t drain well, have to be fast to avoid overflow. Back gutter where key safe is pours when it rains. Back light doesn’t work. Bottom half of stable door doesn’t lock or catch with top half. Emailed owner to flag the items above but no acknowledgment or response. Rest of cottage was nice.

Winterberry cottage is a lovely spot to vacation. The cottage is immaculate, cozy and well- equipment. We appreciated the wood laid ready for our first fire and the bottle of wine awaiting our arrival. The only thing we didn’t find at hand was a box of matches to light the fire. The cottage was conveniently located within a quick drive from Cirencester and Burford as well as the Roman ruins nearby. The Village Pub and the Pig Inn are within a two minute walk and were welcoming with delicious food and gravity ales. We would highly recommend the cottage.

This property is not as lovely as it looks in the photos. There were cobwebs and general dust around in every room. The paintwork was patched and messy in some rooms. There were holes in doors and stairs and gaps in floorboards perfect for a two year old to post things through. The garden gate did not close properly so the garden couldn’t be made secure for the two year old. Bolts and doors were difficult to open and shut without quite a lot of force. We asked for a stair gate and high chair and only got the high chair. Stay Cotswold instructed us to contact the property manager about issues, but as a recent review had also mentioned the cobwebs, we doubt they also follow up issues with the property manager. We don’t expect to have to report cleanliness and maintenance issues on arrival at a property! The cottage is in a lovely village with a good pub and close to other Cotswold destinations.
