About this cottage rental

A variety of spaces make this an excellent venue for groups as does its central position within England. A footpath leading to the delightful village of Bidford on Avon passes in front of the cottage (1 mile) with its shops, pubs and a supermarket. If one carries on over the bridge, a further mile, will bring you to a great little village pub the Cottage of Content at Barton. Cheerful and welcoming! In the other direction a path rises up above the village and can be followed to the delightful village of Cleeve Prior. There you will find a beautiful 15th century church and equally old pub, The Kings Arms. With its beams, log fires, real ale and great food it is everyone's idea of an English Country Pub. There is a quiet route through the lanes to the Stratford Greenway which give cycle access to Stratford on Avon. The River Avon itself is only a few hundred metres walk and children delight in helping the boats navigate the lock at Marlcliff. Some guests even do a spot of fishing.

Lovely cosy cottage with log fire. Super clear communication from the owner Geoff. Very comfortable beds. Loads of crockery, cutlery and numerous pans. Something for everything you may need, like a home from home. Would definitely recommend for family gatherings.

We were a group of 7 ranging from 24-86 & a dog - the cottage was an absolute home from home. Downstairs bathroom & bedroom meant my mum with mobility issues was comfortable. The tiled floors downstairs mean no worries about dirty feet and paws. The house is comfortable & homely, you don't feel like you are treading on eggshells as everything is well used (in a good way) so you're not scared about touching anything! It feels warm &relaxing. 5 mins drive to Bidford with takeaways and Co-op. Lovely river walk on the doorstep for the dog. Geoff was fab, lots of communication & everything you could ever need to know in the folders in the house. The only things to be aware of - which are specified in the listing - are that the parking is not right by the house (& you need to reverse out up the lane), garden isn't enclosed & you have to go through the single bedroom to get to the twin, the bathroom is downstairs. These minor "inconveniences" are more than made up for by the amount of space. All the bedrooms are spacious and the downstairs layout means everyone can be together but have their own space & there is plenty of seating for everyone to sit together by the fire or at the table. We had everything we needed to cook a full roast dinner (the slow cooker was a bonus!) The wood-burner is massive and wonderful. So all in all I can't recommend Geoff's cottage highly enough. If you want high end modern spec then it's not for you, but for cosy comfort in a home that feels loved 10/10

A beautiful picture postcard cottage. Comfortable bedrooms, big dining area for family meals and a cosy front room with an open fire. 20 minute walk to 2 local pubs and 25 minute walk to nearest town. Geoff the owner was friendly and helpful throughout our stay. We will 100% visit again

My family and I have just spent a short stay in the most quaint cottage in a tucked away Hamlet. The cottage was full of history as parts were 500 years old. The grounds around the cottage were very pretty with tulips and other flowering bulbs. The cottage was exactly as advertised and the check in and out process was very easy to follow. Geoff the host made contact via email and then a phone call to make sure everything was as it should be. Our experience exceeded our expectations and we would definately highly recommend this property.

10.0 / 10.0

The cottage was a great base for local walks along the river Avon and nearby hamlets. Beautiful gardens and excellent facilities in the cottage to make us feel at home. The lovely fire in the evenings was an added bonus.

I can't come up with enough words to describe this property...it was the quintessential English cottage! Geoff, the owner is one of the nicest people I have met, helpful and accommodating. I highly recommend this property if you want to experience the essence of England.

10.0 / 10.0

The cottage is stunning and works well for a group, with lots of space which is rare for such a picturesque and extremely old cottage. Lovely walks and a great spot to explore the cotswolds. The garden isn't enclosed so slightly tricky with dogs, but worked fine in the end. Was lovely to meet Geoff and hear about the place too. Brilliant stay, thanks.

A fascinating real cottage, made comfortable even in awful weather by a log burner and central heating! The cottage was a good venue for a 3 generation family get-together to celebrate Grandad's 80th birthday. The only downside (apart from the weather!) was the difficulty of parking near to the property but then we did have 3 cars.

What a lovely cottage in the heart of Shakespeare country. We had a great stay and enjoyed meeting Geoff when he stopped by to tend the garden. This is offor the beaten path but altogether charming and quaint. Would definitely recommend this cottage.

We spent a good week here at this cottage tucked into a corner. As a family group of six it offered cosy rooms with 'me' space and privacy. A good size downstairs double bedroom with bathroom next door. Perfect for my elderly parents. Geoff makes himself easily available if needed and the cottage is well equipped. We encountered no problems. Centrally located for plenty to do in surrounding area.
