Location and character of the cottage. Set in a beautiful part of Gloucester close to many amenities.
Ms Norton, Towcester, December 2011

The location was perfect. Safe off road parking; didn't use car at all, which made a lovely change. So much to see, need to go again. Owner very helpful, house very comfortable for 6 adults. We had a lovely holiday.
Mrs Belsham, Sandbach, October 2011

The location was good with excellent walking for the dog close by. This is a very pretty part of the world with lots to see and do.
Mrs Toms, Newcastle upon Tyne, October 2011

The house has a lot of history and a unique view of a working lock just outside the front door. It is also a short drive from stunning countryside and places of local interest. This property has an excellent central location and is situated just a short walk away from the town centre and a good range of restaurants and places to eat.
