Miss Job
October 2020

“A lovely studio and a great host.”

The place was spotless and with additional coronavirus procedures in place, we felt very safe and well looked after. The bed was comfy and the temperature perfect too. The host baked us a cake, left us some milk, eggs from her chickens and chocolate in the fridge and some fresh flowers on the table. The kitchen was well-equipped and there was plenty of space. We could hear the people walking around in the flat above, it wasn't too much of a problem and certainly not enough to stop us coming ...

We loved the area, right on the Cotswold Way and easy to get everywhere. The village is pretty and the pub is a great traditional village local, recently taken over by new management. The food, beer and hospitality there we would also highly recommend.

“Liz the owner could not have done anything more to ensure the accommodation was clean and safe for us to occupy.”

She even fogged the property with anti-viral. We were very reassured by the measures she had gone too and her hospitality and welcome were very much appreciated.

- Mrs Young, August 2020
Mrs Webber August 2020

“A beautifully appointed studio cottage that was a perfect base for accessing many beautiful walks in the Cotswolds.”

There was everything we could possibly need in the cottage, including eggs from owner’s chicken, flowers and a homemade cake! The interior of the cottage was well-laid out, spacious and comfortable - we hope to return. NOTE no outdoor seating as shown in the photo - I imagine we could have asked for this? We just moved the kitchen chairs outside on the warmer days. Also early morning noise from the apartment above (their kitchen area is above our bed area?) from 6.30am each morning so we would book the top flat if we had a choice next time!

“Fantastic studio let that had everything you could wish for and more.”

Liz , our host , was really welcoming and had provided lots of lovely welcome gifts ( home made cake, fresh eggs from her chickens ) to name a few. Would definately recommend this accommodation without hesitation. 5 * all round.

- Mr Lorentsen, June 2019
Mr Holley April 2019

“A very relaxing and enjoyable stay in a clean, well-equipped and comfortable studio.”

The owner was friendly and helpful, and she even provided a home-made cake and some eggs and milk for our arrival. We had lovely walks in the extensive ancient woodlands adjacent to the property and on the nearby common.

- Mr Holley, April 2019
Mr Scott April 2019

“The property was immaculate and the owners were very welcoming.”

Great location in relation to the surrounding area - Great base camp for exploring the Cotswolds. Looking forward to going back in the future.

Mr Rawe September 2018

“Very nice comfortable cottage great for touring the surrounding area”

- Mr Rawe, September 2018
Mrs Williams August 2018

“The studio was lovely and comfortable and a great base for exploring the area.”

However, it is worth noting that the local pub is closed on Mondays and doesn't do food except Sunday lunch and pizza Fridays. There is a pub doing food about a mile and a half away but not easily walkable as it is up a steep hill. We didn't find any food shops closer than the coop at abbotswood. Apart from the above, we really enjoyed our stay at Rowan Studios and would highly recommend it to others.

Mrs Harrison September 2016

“Almost perfection - would have been nice instead of the coat hooks and drawers to change for a proper wardrobe but this was not a deal breaker.”

Lovely welcome from the owner with cake and fresh eggs - a nice personal touch. Would definitely recommend this accommodation to others. Thank you for the lovely accommodation.

- Mrs Harrison, September 2016
Mrs Casey June 2016

“The layout of the studio was well thought out, the bed was very comfortable and the furnishings very pleasant.”

The nearby pub was useful and we particularly enjoyed walking over the common with its many wild flowers.

- Mrs Casey, June 2016

It was first class accommodation in excellent surroundings. The owners were available if required and the local pub was a bonus!

- Mrs Binns, August 2014
Mr Kahl May 2014

“Cranham, Rainbow End lies in a very quiet area in the Cotswolds.”

The property was perfect, everything was new with a very good eye for choosing the details of the outer and inner architecture. The furniture, TV, WiFi, crockery and parking the car, nothing bad to comment. The owner also was very kind. Thank you for the great holiday!

- Mr Kahl, May 2014
Miss Stroud May 2014

“A beautiful location with stunning walks all around and a very good pub in the village.”

The owners were very kind and friendly. The property was a very good size for two people and had all mod cons. A lot of thought has gone into providing everything you might need on your stay. Already recommended to family and will be back.

The whole area is surrounded by stunning countryside and offers excellent walks and bridleways, with the Cotswold Way very close by. Nearby, the historic waterfront city of Gloucester offers Roman foundations, Victorian Docklands and a magnificent Norman cathedral (whose cloisters were used as a location in the Harry Potter films) rubbing shoulders with a bustling city centre. The delightful regency spa town of Cheltenham, with its historic Georgian architecture and incredible range of shops, cinemas, theatres, restaurants, pubs and visitor attractions, as well as numerous festivals including the famous Gold Cup horse racing, is just a short drive away.
