The Forge

I would have liked moreinfo on yhe heating our first night was cold but eventualky wormked it out but then it worked too well we are not used to underfloor Oil fired heating.

That is the reason I didnt give full marks. Also the water drains slowly in shower and basin A fabulous stay would recommend

Although the property has been modernised to a high standard there are a few small issues Let guests know they need to bring basic essentials, milk, bread, tissues , toiletries etc, the welcome pack of bin liner, biscuits, small tube of washing up liquid and dishwasher tablets !

! Local information booklet would be nice , plus visitors book. Heated towel rail pls, shower room cabinet pls, wardrobe is the cleaners cupboard, coat rack near back door pls, finally the hot tap on shower room is loose. The heating would'nt be sufficient in cold weather. think these small improvements would make it a 5 star

Excellent property for two (and dog)’ full of character and wonderfully well equipped kitchen.

Situated in a lovely Cotswolds village complete with a pub overlooking the village green and only a few hundred yards away. Only issue we had was with the heating. We placed a call and an engineer came out within an hour who soon got it working. Recommended A+++++

A super little place which we thoroughly enjoyed for 3 nights.

Well situated to visit the lovely towns and villages across the Cotswolds. Just a few niggles such as wine glasses that didn't match, a few cobwebs that my taller than average frame managed to find walking around and a bed that could be more comfortable. However, that shouldn't (and didn't) detract from a lovely stay.

The inside space was excellent, lots of room and tastefully furnished.

Outside space less good, a bit more garden with a table and chairs outside the kitchen or bedroom doors would be much better than the existing arrangement. Some salt and pepper would have been nice. The dishwasher didn't seem to clean very well, no salt or rinse aid in it, possibly, and the provided dishwasher tablets didn't seem very effective.

The accommodation was acceptable but there was not much of a welcome pack left for us, also there was no table outside with a brolly to sit in the shade .

The property is furnished and decorated to high standards and is extremely comfortable and well equipped We had a thoroughly relaxing enjoyable stay as the cottage is in a very quiet location but close enough to other towns if you want to venture out.

There is a pub a 5 minute walk away, the staff are friendly and we had an enjoyable meal, however we found the drinks to be very pricey A couple of little things missing were a freezer or freezer compartment in the fridge, it was extremely hot when we visited so we took a bag of ice for our drinks, unfortunately it melted as there was no freezer also as a result of there not being a freezer we could not refreeeze the ice packs we use in our cool bag when going out and about. Secondly a shelf near to the bathroom sink would have been nice to put toothpaste deodorant etc on Only a couple of minor issues that did not spoil our stay but the freezer and shelf would have been nice to have We would thoroughly recommend the cottage and would definitely stay again

The Forge is a lovely, comfortable, clean property!

It's decorated really well and situated in a perfect position! We had a wonderful stay there! We would like to know if there are any bats in the bat box? We sat outside two nights in a row but didn't see any!

The cottage was perfect in every way, clean and comfortable and ideally located for touring the local attractions.

The settees and beds were super comfy! Highly recommended

Gorgeous property in an ideal location.

Would 100% recommend as we had no issues at all.

Lovely little cottage in a nice peaceful location.

A slight hiccup getting the keys and a bit of a detour was necessary as the ford was very full one of the days, but not too bad. A retractable baby gate would be useful for the kitchen as my toddler did take a little tumble down the stairs. Underfloor heating was lovely after a day exploring in the rain! A couple little bits would have made this a perfect stay, a mat at the front door for muddy feet, a grater/peeler in the kitchen but all in all very enjoyable amd would definitely stay again!
