• "Enjoyed our stay."

  Lovely friendly owner. Could do with a more comfortable arm chair when it’s raining. Minor complaint though. Would definitely recommend and hope to return .

  So glad you enjoyed your stay .Spring is definitely the time to pick when the ancient Perry Pear tree is a profusion of white flower and the narcissus abound. Will try to find more comfortable arm chair too. Niki. Property Owner

• "A small but perfectly formed cottage set in a mature garden with trees and wildlife."

  It was clean and had everything that we needed for a short self catering holiday with enough utensils, crockery and cutlery to make preparing meals easy. The bed and pillows were comfortable and the bath towels large. The settee is a little small for 2 people to share comfortably but other than that, the owners ensured that we had a lovely, relaxing stay at Garden Cottage.

  So glad that you enjoyed your stay & found everything to your liking. You certainly had excellent weather for walking The White Horse Hill and exploring Downton Abbey in our neighbouring village of Bampton. Property Owner

• "Niki is a fabulous host, nothing is too much trouble, even providing us with a fan during last weeks hot weather."

  The cottage may be small but is well thought out and designed. The setting is fantastic in a country setting within the owners large landscaped garden, it is not overlooked. From the settee you can watch a good variety of birds flying. The only adverse comment regarding the cottage is for anyone with mobility issues. The garage space is circa 35 metres from the cottage and it is not possible to get the car any closer. So as well as the walking, cases and all bags have to be carried as above. My mobility scooter would not work on the first area of gravel but did manage the gravel garden path. Niki used the wheelbarrow to get our luggage to the cottage. Overall the stay was worth the inconvenience. Thank you Niki

• "Lovely little cottage set in a beautiful location."

  Clean and had everything you could need. Kitchen well equipped, fridge small but enough for 2 people. hosts very friendly and helpful. Well placed for many attractions in this part of the Cotswolds, we visited several stunning gardens, Blenheim, Oxford and a few charming villages. The garden is huge and we loved watching the deer visit as well as the red kites which seem to be everywhere. My only small gripe is that the sofa isn’t really big enough for 2 to relax comfortably and the wicker armchair wasn’t overly comfortable. However it’s a lovely place and I would recommend.

  Thank you for your feedback with regards to your stay at Garden Cottage. We are delighted to hear you enjoyed your stay with us. It's a great base to explore the Cotswolds and we would love to welcome you back again in the future. Kind regards Manor Cottages. Property Owner

  The cottage is even better than on the photo's. The house is small but big enough for 2. Everytthing you need for cooking is available. It is very tastefully decorated. The garden is beautiful. The owners are very nice. the only suggestion is to put 2 comfortable chairs on the terrace. In addition to the 2 nice looking, but not so comfortable iron chairs.

  So glad that you enjoyed your stay, we do have more comfortable chairs so we will definitely make them available ! Property Owner

• "All in all a very disappointing experience."

  The cottage is well presented in a beautiful garden and Niki could not have been more welcoming. However our stay was extremely unpleasant due to a persistent insect infestation. It was apparent on the first night that there were a lot of spiders around the place. My partner has a phobia and it resulted in poor sleep for both of us, as I was woken up to catch around 20 of them on the first night. We also noticed wood lice appearing at night too. These were around the edge of the floors, but also on the kitchen worktop and hanging from the loft hatch in the bedroom ceiling. I’d pick off about 10 a day, hoping that would be an end to it. Ants were also a problem in the kitchen, with them crawling all over the surfaces and cupboards. There is no lid to the kitchen bin, which may possibly have attracted them. In hindsight we should have complained immediately, but each time we thought that we’d sorted it ourselves and that would be an end to it. We did report it to Niki after the 5th night though and gave her the opportunity to sort it out. She attempted to eradicate them during the day, but we returned to the property late in the evening to find the problem to be as bad as ever. We took the decision to cancel the holiday rather than endure another night and packed up and left the cottage around midnight. We thought the four hour drive home would be preferable to another night there. We left the 8 wood lice that were found in the bedroom in a glass, for Niki to see the extent of the problem from just one evening. We also offered photographic evidence of this. The owners showed no concern that we’d had to leave and a request for any refund was flatly refused. Sykes Cottages state in their terms and conditions that they are simply a go-between and have no responsibility for the accommodation and just referred us back to the owners. We did take out an insurance policy through Sykes, but this did not cover the property being uninhabitable.

  "We are naturally concerned about your "extremely unpleasant stay", of which we were only made aware on your 5th day. Equally, receiving such a review is both upsetting and disconcerting. We have been running Garden Cottage as a holiday let for 16 years and yours is the first review we have had about a "persistent insect infestation". All this could have been avoided if you had informed Sykes that your partner has an insect phobia and asked if Garden Cottage, situated in a garden, would be an OK place to stay. Your view that the insects you found amounted to a "persistent insect infestation" clearly was not shared by the guests that proceeded you or those that followed. Knowing your partner's condition it was surely incumbent upon you to inform us straightaway so that we could jointly assess whether the problem could be addressed. You offered no photographic evidence. We would have liked to have seen a picture of the 20 spiders on the first night, given that there were none the night before. As for the ants we saw no evidence of them when we vacuumed the carpet. Leaving it until the 5th night to inform us, with a glass of 6 woodlice as evidence, before leaving at midnight came as a complete shock, which you have interpreted as "no concern". For those who do not suffer from insectophobia Garden Cottage is clearly not an "uninhabitable property". We strongly advise that in future you inform the booking agent of your partner's condition in advance." Kind Regards Niki Property Owner

• "A stuning location in a beautifully rural and secluded setting."

  What the cottage may lack in floorspace, is more than made up for in it's tranquil setting, and the expertly manacured and tended gardens and grounds, which the visitor has full access to. Because of it's remote location, we found it hard to find the entrance in the darkness, but were ushered in by Niki, waving a torch down the road. What a lovely surprise awaited us the next morning. All basic essentials are to hand which makes Self Catering very easy. In addition to all of this Niki displays some of her artistic "Bird in the hand" craftwork of stitched and embroidered pieces, to purchase as you wish. We bought some beautiful Christmas pieces to take home with us. We would definitely wish to return on a future occasion.

  SO thrilled that you enjoyed your stay......and simply delighted that you purchased some of my " Bird in the hand " crafts to adorn your house and celebrate Christmas 2021 ,like no other !! We would love to welcome you back and will let you know when Garden Cottage becomes available again. Property Owner

  A lot of thought has been put into the decor and the setting, in the owner’s beautiful garden, is perfect. There is a bit of a walk from the parking space to the cottage but it didn’t spoil the holiday. The owners, Lawrence and Niki were very friendly, asking us if we had enjoyed our day, and gave advice on places to eat and visit.

  During the stay, snowdrops and crocuses carpeted the manicured lawns, with a lovely view across to the brook and fields. Niki, the owner, couldn't have been more obliging and helpful.

• "From the moment we arrived at Garden Cottage we were greeted with the warmest welcome from Niki which instantly made us feel like this was a home from home."

  The cottage was perfect and suited both myself and my husband perfectly, it had everything we needed for a comfortable stay. The cottage was decorated beautifully and was thoroughly cleaned prior to our arrival. The cottage was situated in the small town of Black Bourton where we were able to enjoy stunning walks, we were only a short drive from some of the larger towns as well as local attractions. Niki had kindly created a welcome pack which highlighted everything the Cotswolds had to offer and the must see places, this was incredibly helpful and we planned some lovely day trips. We would also recommend the The Plough Inn in the village of Alvescot which was just a short 5 minute drive with free parking at the rear of the pub. The food was superb and reasonably priced, again we would have to thank Niki for the recommendation from the welcome pack which highlighted some wonderful places to eat nearby. We cannot find any fault with our stay at Garden Cottage and our hosts Niki and Lawrence were some welcoming and friendly, we were even given the pleasure of meeting Jasper the family Labrador who greeted us every morning by sitting by the back door in the garden. We highly recommend anyone who is considering a visit to the Cotswolds to stay at Garden Cottage, we are already talking about booking our next trip.

• "We were pleased to find a beautiful cottage in a wonderfully quiet and pleasant part of the Cotswolds."

  However, a little disappointed that the listing suggested there was a washing machine in the cottage and it turns out that facilities were available to do laundry but it meant involving the owners. Since a booking elsewhere on this holiday clearly stated that facilities were available for a small fee to the owner we were prepared for that and not taken by surprise. The location of this cottage was very suitable for the places we had hoped to visit while in the area so generally we had a very good week in Black Bourton.
