The Old Ciderhouse is a lovely place to dwell. You are on a working horse farm, so you could come accross some horses. Only minus is the state of the road on the farm. It has some humbs and bumps.
Thank you Gert for your kind review,we are pleased you enjoyed your stay and we’re able to visit the places you wanted to see ,and the sun came out as well.Carolyn Property Owner

Lovely comfortable and homely cottage. Quiet, rural location and close to the Cotswold Way for walking. One small negative, the tiny sink in the bathroom was not easy to use for washing and shaving.

"For a small cottage for two people, it was very well laid out and actually felt quite roomy."
There was good wardrobe and drawer space, better than some larger properties which we have stayed in. We liked the bright downlights available in the living room which made reading very easy and which is often lacking in other properties! The only slight drawback was that the hand basins in both the en-suite shower room and the downstairs toilet were very small for anything but hand washing. It was a very nice situation and Carolyn, the owner, was very friendly and helpful. We thoroughly enjoyed our holiday and would recommend the Old Cider House.
-
"We had a wonderful holiday in the historic Old Cider Press cottage."
The owner was very welcoming and friendly and the cottage is equipped to a really high standard and very comfortable for two people. We were there in the middle of a heatwave but the thick walls kept the cottage cool. The location on the edge of Prestbury makes it very handy for the Park and Ride into the lovely Regency town of Cheltenham and also for exploring the surrounding Cotswold villages. We also visited the local nature reserves which are a haven for rare butterflies. We would definitely recommend this property.
