"A lovely property, good location."
Great amenities. We had a problem with the heating and it was rectified within a couple of hours. So great service. My only gripe was the deep cleanliness. Lots of cobwebs, spiders and dead flies. These had been there a while, obviously we'd expect cobwebs and spiders etc in an old building like this, but they had been there a while. Bedrooms and bed linen and bathrooms etc were immaculate. The main area with cleanliness issues was the first floor sitting room and luckily we didn't spend too much time there. I would still give the property a 5 star review. Us 10 girls had the best time. Thank you
Thank you for taking the time to leave us feedback. We are glad to hear your party of 10 had a great time and enjoyed the location.
We will raise the issues of cleanliness with our housekeeping team.
Kind Regards, Manor Cottages

"Great location, especially in the busy summer months when parking is at a premium and with two pubs nearby!"
Stunningly beautiful village.
The accommodation was very spacious (huge!), comfortable, clean, well appointed with loads of character and interest. We used the lounge on the first floor to watch the Olympics! Beds were super comfy.
As the tallest of our party - I'm 6' 1" - I had to duck under some of the beams but i didn't bang my head once!
Small gripes - some en-suite bathrooms only have hand held showers, not sure why and the wet room on the top floor is a bit strange but it does work. When people are walking about on the top floor, it is pretty noisy for those in the bedrooms below.
Apart from that, all very good.
Thank you for taking the time to provide us with such great feedback for the property. We are so happy to hear that you found the property comfortable and clean and that you enjoyed the location, the pubs are indeed an asset!
We hope we can welcome you back to the Cotswolds soon.

"My big concern over booking this was I was not able to get hold of Manor Cottages by phone."
This caused me anxiety as it was our base for my daughter’s wedding at Cripps Barn. It wasn’t until day of our arrival that someone phoned me to say we could get in early, prior to that I did not feel reassured that we would get access. The Mill itself was perfect for our party. Plenty of room for bride to get ready etc. A comfortable, clean base, adequate facilities for rental. Did feel the initial arrival and departure time were excessive 6pm in, 10am out, which did change to 5pm in, still not great, considering amount paid. Also could have mowed the garden and provided more loo paper. Good location in a historical building/village.

"We’ve really enjoyed our stay at th Mill,once we were able to get in!"
The key was jammed, maybe a little hook would solve the problem.
Apart from that it’s an amazing place and one of our best yet. Thanks
We are so glad to hear you enjoyed your stay and that the team at the office were able to send maintenance out to you quickly so you could get in and start your holiday.
We do hope we can welcome you back in the future.

"Arlington mill was a perfect venue for our family of 11 plus 2 dogs for grandpa’s birthday celebration weekend."
It’s in a beautiful part of the Cotswolds, lots of walks and the Catherine Wheel pub just up the road.
Unfortunately we couldn’t get the oven to work which was an inconvenience.
We were lucky that we had fantastic weather and were able to sit outside but we would’ve liked the opportunity to sit in the “garden “ next to the garage. A patio table and chairs would be nice there.
Thank you for your feedback, we are so pleased you and your family enjoyed Arlington Mill for your birthday celebrations and the weather was kind to you. Thank you for your comments regarding the oven and thoughts on the garden and patio chairs, we could have possibly resolved the oven for you during your stay if you had contacted us before departure. We look forward to welcoming you back again soon.

"Wonderful property in a delightful setting, the pictures where very accurate and showed the property as it is, I stayed in the top room which could have had something to put luggage on as apart from good hanging facilities I had to have cloth over the floor."
But kitchen well equipped, nice and warm, we had twelve quests 10 chairs round the table not a problem as extra chairs in the kitchen, overall a fantastic venue very well done.
Thank you for this lovely review. We're delighted you enjoyed your stay and thank you also for your suggestions regarding storage which we have passed on to the Property Manager. Best wishes Manor Cottages

"Cleanliness of the outside of the house - patio area at the back and the front entrance were not as you would expect."
Patio area was reported on first evening and never cleaned up inspite of being assured it would. Front gravel area full of weeds and not in keeping with the rest of the house. Items such as food mixer not working and extraction hood lamps out were reported and yet again were not attended to.
The house itself was clean and accommodation first class - Bibury is a busy place!
Thank you for your comments. We are sorry we were unable to resolve the issues during your stay. The outside areas were reported to the owner. Maintenance did attend, but needed to order parts. Unfortunately, these did not arrive before the end of your stay. Everything will be rectified as soon as possible. We hope you enjoyed exploring the local area.

"We had an absolutely wonderful stay at Arlington Mill."
It was beautiful and amazingly well-kept. The size was fantastic for our group of 11 and brilliant for having dinners together. The location was perfect - a two-minute walk to the local pub and next door to a place that does great coffee and breakfasts. Communication with Sykes and the owner of the accommodation was prompt and helpful. Highly recommended!
Thank you so much for your lovely review Dr E - We are delighted that you had a wonderful stay, and you found all the delights of the local area! We very much hope to see you another time! Best regards, the owner of Arlington Mill.

"A wonderful family three days was spent by us at Arlington Mill."
(There were ten of us). It is an amazing building and is just right for a large family group. There is so much space that everyone was satisfied with their own en suite accommodation. We ate in on two nights, preparing huge banquets in the massive and well-equipped kitchen (two freezers and two fridges!). The Catherine Wheel Inn is a stone's throw up the road and did us proud on one evening. This mill is an amazing place and there is so much to see in the village and surrounding area. It is a delightful part of the Cotswolds. Just one or two minor gripes. When using previous rented accommodation we have usually had a TV set in the bedrooms. Arlington Mill does not, though we were probably too tired to bother, anyway! The TV in the lounge appears only to receive programmes via Sky as Freeview failed to pick up any signal. The soundbar failed to switch on and is very precariously attached to the set. I am familiar with the model and it seemed to be inverted? We tried everything to get it into action, but it seemed dead. We brought DVD's with us for the grandchildren but were unable to use them as the player was not connected to the set and the leads appeared to be missing. The heating system is quite complex and not to be messed with! The timer appeared to be incorrectly set though we were frightened to fiddle with it and left it well alone! In leaving it as it was the heating seemed to come on very late in the evening and hardly at all in the morning when we were getting up. The master bedroom, however, was always warm. As a result, we had to purchase heaps of logs and used the very efficient log burner to heat the dinning and associated lounge area where we spent most of our time. These are only minor gripes about a holiday let which is second to none. It certainly has the 'wow factor' and is well worth the money. Congratulations to the owners who have done a great restoration job on what is a wonderful old building of some significance.
