  • "Anvil Cottage is clean, comfortable and homely - the perfect place to relax and unwind."

    We liked its character, garden and location. Convenient for walks and the Cotswolds. There was everything that we needed for the perfect break. It was nice to meet the owners who were very friendly and provided a generous welcome basket.

  • "Would be more beneficial to have a small freezer in the kitchen rather than a table."

    The washer/dryer the dryer was not at all good and we wasted hours of electricity getting clothes dry. The only other thing i would say was a negative would be that all the pillows were soft and this is the first place i have stayed in that did not have a mixture of hard and soft. The cottage itself is quaint, ideally situated, very central and warms up really fast. Just those few niggly details.

    Apologies for our delay in replying. The dryer unit to the washing machine has since been replaced and we regret the inconvenience this caused. Your feedback on the feather pillows is appreciated; guests have not requested a choice of soft and hard pillows before but we will offer this option in future. We are glad you enjoyed your stay otherwise and thank you for staying. Best wishes, Anne-Marie Property Owner

  • "It was absolutely first class in every way."

    I had looked for an old English cottage in the Cotswolds for our friends from the USA to enjoy. It was perfect. Central location, the facilities, the comfort and lovely hosts. All the little extras like the welcome pack too. With two bedrooms with their own bathroom it was ideal for two couples.

    Thank you so much for your feedback. It's lovely to hear that you enjoyed your time away and took full advantage of the property! We hope we can welcome you again one day in the future! Best wishes, Manor Cottages. Property Owner

  • "A really lovely cottage."

    When we saw the owner she told us that it had been converted from the stables of the forge some years ago. It has all the facilities that you need and the shower has lots of pressure. The sloping ceilings may not suit everyone but we found them querky and delightful adding charm to very well maintaind cottage. The cottage is next to a large village green area with two playing areas for children (one up to 7 year old, the other for larger children) but you do not suffer any undue noise. There is plenty of room for ball games and the field is dog friendly. The Chequers across the road supplies very good food (but is £££). Overall we very much enjoyed our stay at Anvil Cottage and would certainly book again.

    Thank you for your comprehensive review and information useful for future guests. We are pleased you enjoyed your stay and hope we can welcome you back again. Best wishes Manor Cottages Property Owner

    The wood burning stove, in addition to the C/H ensured we were toasty warm despite the sub zero temperatures and snow during our Pre Christmas break. Ann Marie and Paul could not have been more helpful and were the perfect hosts. They had left us some delicious goodies in the kitchen and brought us some extra logs before we were able to pop out and buy our own. The cottage is perfectly situated for all the major attractions of the Cotswolds, including all the picture perfect villages, Adam`s Farm, railway link to London and much more.

  • "Cottage is furnished to a high standard."

    Beds and mattresses are very comfortable . Internal layout is very good and location was exactly what we were looking for. Only slight grouse is a departure time of 10.00. The cleaner turned up at 9.55! It would have been helpful to have an extra hour to pack and load the car as we had brought quite a lot of things with us so that we wouldn't have to cook, and the condition of rental was that beds had to be stripped and the cottage cleaned up prior to departure.

    Thank you for your feedback regarding your recent stay and we're so glad you were happy with the cottage and location. We're so sorry about the departure time - this is standard for all our cottages as there needs to be adequate time for a deep clean and turnaround before the next guests.

The property

Anvil Cottage is a hidden gem in the heart of this picturesque Cotswolds town.

This quaint cottage is tucked away in a quiet area of Churchill, not far from the charming towns of Chipping Norton and Stow on the Wold.

The home's interior is a good size for its purpose, providing a relaxing environment for a family of four in its two upstairs bedrooms with attached bathrooms and its downstairs living room and kitchen.

The living room has a traditional wood burning stove for warmth and doors leading out to the garden creating a homely ambience; the kitchen is well and fully equipped, but with such a great pub right across the street and others in the nearby villages, you may decide to splurge on a regular basis!

Additionally, there is a conservatory that looks out onto the garden, which features lovely cottage-style planting and is an excellent compliment to the home's design.

Just beyond the garden's gates is a fantastic playing field complete with a sizable open area, cricket pitch, and a modest playground.

This welcoming cottage in a picturesque Cotswolds town is ideal for a wonderful holiday.
