Lovely old Rectory with fantastic views over countryside and plenty space for our family group ranging from aged 7 to age 79 Tiny village with a shop stocking everything. Pub was nice for a drink, but we didn’t enjoy the food there. Excellent kitchen in house for family cooking. Can definitely recommend this property.

The house is absolutely beautiful in a really stunning location. It is tastefully decorated and furnished to a very high standard. It was very well stocked with crockery, glasses, cooking utensils etc. The beds were all really comfortable and the whole house was very clean. We were a group of ten women but if we had been a group of 13 I think there would still have been plenty of space for all of us. Great weekend and we hope to come back!

A group of us spent a weekend at The Old Rectory and we had the most wonderful time. The house is beautiful, with six lovely bedrooms, with several tastefully decorated bathrooms. Downstairs there’s a big, well-equipped kitchen and a spacious dining room right next to it, which made cooking and eating together really easy. We also enjoyed relaxing in one of the lounges with the log burner going in the evenings. The views from the back of the house across the countryside are gorgeous, and there’s plenty of outdoor seating to make the most of it. On Sunday, we walked just a few hundred yards to the local pub for Sunday lunch, which was excellent. Altogether, it was a fantastic weekend and we’d all love to go back.

We originally chose the rectory for our family gathering because of its location, but it far exceeded our expectations. The house itself was stunning, and the surrounding area was absolutely beautiful. The views from the property were breathtaking. It had everything we needed, and being situated in such a charming village made our stay truly special. Lots of walks on the doorstep and a great pub. Would highly recommend.

Absolutely beautiful house in a stunning setting. We’ve booked to go again next year. Beautiful walks and a very friendly local pub about 2 minutes walk away.

I have marked the condition category down due to the condition of the lawn on arrival i.e. littered with dog faeces which I had to clear up before allowing my grandchildren anywhere near it.

Family w/e get together in a lovely old Rectory in the Cotswolds. This is an annual event and this destination is our best so far. The location was great, and accessibility of the local village and lovely pub was a bonus. Everything is provided for the guests and it all works very well. The bedrooms were all of a generous size so everybody was happy. A little more attention to comfort in the sitting rooms to make them feel more homely would be nice. A little more attention in the kitchen to tea towels etc would also be desirable, however these are small constructive comments to add to an otherwise very enjoyable stay.

In a lovely village , very well equipped and maintained. Very comfortable and stunning views. Lovely gardens at Miserden House just a short walk.
