We loved the house and it was in a great location with an excellent local Gastro pub- we just felt at this price the laundry and dishwasher need an upgrade as on Christmas Day the dishwasher broke down a second time and tumble dryer never worked. Simon is a lovely host and was very helpful

A perfectly charming and comfortable property, full of period character and more than ample accommodation for our family (8 adults and 4 children). The children loved the garden where they could run around or play on the trampoline to their hearts' content whilst the adults were able to relax in a tranquil setting that is still within easy reach of other tourist attractions in the Cotswolds. Many thanks for a lovely holiday.

The property really exceeded our expectations, it was very clean, beautifully decorated and quiet and secluded. The kitchen had everything we needed, and the bedrooms and bathrooms were great, especially for our 4 granddaughters. They were thrilled with the family room and the toys and games and enjoyed the trampoline and spacious safe garden. It is well located for local attractions, and we enjoyed visiting Crocodile World and Adam Henson's Cotswold Farm Park - we were very lucky with the weather. We would highly recommend it for a family group of our size. Simon was very helpful when we had a few minor queries.

We rented this property for a three generation family holiday (11 people altogether with ages from 1 to 73) and Walnut Tree House was ideal with plenty of space and opportunity for hide and seek! The youngsters made good use of the games barn which was an ideal added facility. The House was well equipped and everything worked well. The House is in an extremely peaceful location and well situated for visiting the many Cotswold beauty spots. We thoroughly enjoyed staying at Walnut Tree House

We had a lovey stay at Walnut Tree House. This was a family vacation with kids and grandparents. There was plenty of space for everyone to spread out and enjoy. The kids loved the big garden, trampoline and playroom and the kitchen and outdoor areas were big enough to seat everyone comfortably. We had amazing weather and enjoyed some lovely walks in the surrounding countryside, also a great dinner at the pub in the village which was very easy to walk to. Simon was very easy to communicate with and helpful. Highly recommend.

5.0 / 10.0
The experience was top notch. The property is expansive and perfect for a larger family with teens. The village and surrounding towns were idyllic. The older children were able to cycle around the nearby towns without concern and the Feathered Nest Country Inn and Michelin star restaurant just down the street made this an absolutely perfect location for wandering and cycling the Costswolds. as a family.
5.0 / 10.0
Absolutely ideal for all the family being twelve of us. A delightful village with peace and tranquility and rabbits welcoming you in the garden.
