• "Had a wonderful week staying at the picturesque Puffitts Cottage."

  The cottage is ideally situated, just a short walk into the centre of Bourton and has parking for two cars, which was very convenient. The cottage was clean, beautifully furnished and had everything we needed for our stay. and we made the most of the log burner on the wet, cooler days. A welcome basket was a lovely gesture and contained goodies to suit everyone. Nicky, the owner, was so helpful and once she had answered our queries, left us to enjoy our holiday. Our beds were so comfortable and all of us slept very well from the first night. We will definitely be happy to return to Puffitts when we visit the Cotswolds again and strongly recommend the cottage for an enjoyable stay.

  Hello Sarah , thank you for your amazing review, much appreciated and we are so glad you had a wonderful holiday enjoying all that Puffitts Cottage has to offer as well as Beautiful Barton on the Water. Please do visit us again you are more than welcome. Nicky Property Owner

• "This was our second stay at Puffits and we cannot recommend it highly enough."

  It is spacious clean and well looked after. It’s decorated beautifully with lots of finishing touches. It doesn’t feel like a holiday let but a loved home. The bed and pillows are comfy and the bathroom spacious with a lovely bath. Plenty of storage for clothes etc. The kitchen is large and is well equipped. The utility area and downstairs toilet also very handy. The back garden is a good size and secure for our dog. Plenty of furniture for sitting out. The front garden also now has a gate so we were able to sit out there with our dog too. Nicky, the owner obviously loves her cottage, and was very helpful giving us lots of info before we arrived and checking in with us that everything was good for us. The cottage is in a perfect location, just a 10minute walk along the river to get to Bourton which is beautiful with lots of shops and cafes. You could do some good walks from the cottage with a large field at the back for exercising dogs Also central for exploring the Cotswolds. We look forward to staying at Puffits again in the future.

  Hello Denise , so glad your second stay was a great as your first. We do our best to keep the standard of the cottage high and it's great to know we have once again achieved this for you. Thanks for choosing us again and we hope to welcome you back again soon. Nicky Property Owner

• "This was our second stay at Puffits Cottage."

  It has everything you need and more. Very comfortable and really lovely decor. Just on the edge of the village so quiet but only five minutes walk to the lovely shops, tea rooms, restaurants and pubs. A fantastic place to stay and use as your base for visits around the Cotswolds. Brilliant communication both before and during our stay with the owner. We could not have felt more welcome, such a relaxing time it felt like a home from home cannot recommend it more highly.

  Thank you Dawn for returning to Puffitts a second time. We are so glad you had another great stay. Property Owner

• "Puffitts Cottage is clean, welcoming, stylish and very comfortable."

  Everything you need is provided and there are wonderful personal touches even including high quality gifts and treats for our dogs in little bags labelled with their names. Attention to detail is everywhere, little torches in the bedrooms, chocolates and wine on arrival and clear communication with the kind and helpful owner Nicky. The location is particularly convenient being a short stroll from the shops and restaurants. I would recommend Puffitts Cottage without reservation.

  Thank you Peter for your review- we so appreciate it. Glad you enjoyed all that the Cottage has to offer - we hope to welcome you back again in the near future - Nicky Property Owner

• "This was a beautiful cottage in an excellent location to explore the Cotswolds."

  The owner was really helpful and the welcome basket was a lovely touch after a long journey. The cottage was really well equipped only feedback would be that it was so well equipped there was no cupboard space to put the food we had bought. The cottage was easy to use and things were easy to find as things were well labelled and explained in the book. The dog was safe in the garden and loved the beautiful stone floor tiles in the kitchen in the hot weather. We had a really lovely week Thank you Esther

  A fantastic welcome pack, including a welcome pack for our dog, was very much appreciated. Nicky was on hand if we needed anything or had any questions.

• "Puffitts cottage was more than we expected."

  Everything you would need is provided to make you feel comfortable, a home from home. Cleanliness and maintenance was to a high standard. We went for Christmas and the cottage was decorated to put you in the festive spirit. Welcome pack was plentiful and a wonderful surprise. Shops, pubs and Tea rooms right on your door step. Nicky (the owner) went above and beyond to make us feel welcome, there was nothing she wouldn’t do for us to make our experience staying in her cottage a great one. The only reason I wouldn’t recommend would be for selfish reasons so that it would always be available for our return. HIGHLY RECOMMEND

• "The cottage was beautifully decorated and spacious with an enclosed back garden with patio area and grass area, perfect for our dog."

  There was also a front garden which also had a patio table and chairs to sit and watch the birds feeding on the feeder. It was well equipped with everything we could possibly need and clean and tidy. The cottage is well situated in the village , being just outside the hustle and bustle but close enough to walk into the shops and cafes by walking along by the river away from the road, taking about 10 minutes. The owner was very helpful before our arrival and keen to know we were happy with everything when we arrived. We cannot rate this cottage highly enough, easily the best we’ve stayed in. Highly recommend it .

  It is attractively furbished and has everything you could possibly need in the well appointed kitchen.

• "The cottage is ideally located."

  Just a few minutes walk from the village centre, right next door to a good pub/restaurant (The Mousetrap) and also close to some really good walks (best one we found was an 11 mile circular route through Lower Slaughter, Upper Slaugher and Naunton). Cottage was very comfortable with a great kitchen for cooking, although we also ate out and had take aways too during our stay. Ideal for dogs as the garden in the rear is quite large and fully enclosed. Bourton-on-the-Water is very pretty and has a fair number of pubs, restaurants and shops. Best find with the Bakery on the Water, which does amazing bread and traditional British cakes (iced buns, lardy cake, chelsea buns, etc). The owners were very helpful and dealt with one issue we had very quickly. One issue we had was finding the property as the directions from Sykes say it is on the right but is in fact on the left if approaching from the A429.

• "Puffitt's Cottage is a lovely place to stay."

  The cottage is stunning, tastefully decorated and very comfortable. Of our two weeks we only had one rainy day and the little wood burner made the cottage so cheerful! The cleaners had it sparkling for us when we arrived so it felt like home right away. Nicky was very kind and accommodating, we very much appreciated her generosity. The welcome pack was an added bonus we were not expecting. We came from Canada and therefore we had a lot of family and friends stop by for visits. I must say they all commented on how lovely the cottage was. Also it is in a very convenient spot, a short walk to the village attractions. Thank-you Sykes! Deborah
