• "This is our 4th trip to Stow for Christmas and 4th cottage we have stayed in."

  This has been by far the best and we will not be looking for anywhere else to stay. Beautifully furnished, superbly equipped and very clean. The location is great and 5 minutes from central Stow. Many thanks to Kieran and also thanks to Ella. PS already booked for 2024!!

  Thank you for this lovely review and we're delighted you enjoyed your stay again at Headford Cottage. We look forward to welcoming you again this year! Best wishes Manor Cottages Property Owner

• "Stayed for 3 nights."

  Great location. Had all equipment required for a short break. Not a complaint but a suggestion, quilts need to be a bit heavier for winter months. Also the towels provided were a bit small for use after a shower. Overall satisfied with our stay.. Would have no hesitation to return or recommend.

  Thank you for providing this feedback. We're glad you enjoyed your break at Headford Cottage and loved the location too. We have passed on your suggestions to the Property Manager so thank you for these. We hope to welcome you again soon. Best wishes Manor Cottages Property Owner

• "This was a great holiday cottage in an excellent location."

  The cottage was very clean & comfortable and provided a very homely feel. The facilities provided were excellent. The only disappointing aspect of the the cottage for us were the kitchen unit doors which were chipped & worn in places - this was in contrast to the rest of the cottage’s decor which was very well presented. that said, we have no hesitation in recommending the cottage and will hopefully return for a second visit sometime in the future..

  Thank you for your feedback with regards to your stay at Headford Cottage. It's lovely to hear the cottage really worked for you and as you mention, it's in a really wonderful location to access everything. We would love to welcome you back again in the future.

• "A perfect location & a comfortable cottage."

  Top quality furnishings & fittings. The gas fire was a bonus on wintery nights! We had a brilliant week.

• "Garbage bin was full outside when we arrived (day after the pickup was supposed to occur) but we emailed the owner & cleaner & they made some space so we could fit our garbage in at the end of the stay."

  (not their fault, but we didn't want to get in trouble!) The cottage was lovely and perfect for 2 couples (I imagine it would be a tight fit for more than 4 adults, despite 3 bedrooms). The garden was perfect for enjoying the weather - and the landscaping! (we Americans spent so much of our trip trying to figure out what we could grow at home) The location was fantastic - great parking, so much within walking distance in Stow on the Wold, and so central for other sites in the Cotswolds. We loved our stay!

• "There is a noise in the cylinder cupboard in the Front Bedroom, which disturbs sleep in two Bedrooms - from the Grunfos pump."

  The gas fire in the Living Room would not light. Builders on adjoining sites start work at 7.30 - your might want to warn people.

  Thank you for taking the time to provide feedback and so sorry for the issues encountered - we hope this didn't impact on your stay. We can confirm that the heating pump was fixed on the day it was brought to our attention - and that the gas fire is now working fine. We hope to welcome you again. Property Owner

• "The cottage was very clean!"

  We loved the powerfull shower and the parking is a bonus. The beds are really good. A pity everyday from 07.30h the concrete mixer was turned on at the building site 10 meter from the cottage; after they finished working at 16.00h it was lovely to sit in the garden. Hopefully they finish the building soon, because then it is a great spot to stay. The chairs in the diningroom are really at the end of their live and the cooker also needs updating (otherwise it would be 5 star)

  Thank you for the feedback, we appreciate your comments. Apologies if the building work had an impact on your stay. Pleased that you otherwise enjoyed the cottage. Property Owner

• "The property was a well equipped and presented house in an excellent location close to good pubs and restaurants."

  It was well maintained and very clean and had everything we could have asked for. The mattresses were a little uncomfortable and the beds noisy but we're fine for our stay. The house would benefit from curtains or a black out blind in the front bedroom as the security lights on the garages shine through the current blind. We thoroughly enjoyed our stay and it was the best equipped, well presented and well positioned cottages we have ever stayed in.

  Thank you for taking the time to leave such a nice feedback, we are delighted you enjoyed your stay and made use of facilities available, We will forward your comments to the owner. We look forward to welcoming you again soon. Character cottages Property Owner

• "Very good local information and user guides provided by the owner."

  The property is in an excellent location with good facilities. The only negatives were the dining chairs were too low for the table and we found the beds rather uncomfortable. Despite being assured by Character Cottages and Sykes that the building work was nearing completion, we felt rather misled as the house under construction behind, was only at bedroom height and the builders working on the scaffolding were level with Headford Cottage's bedroom windows.

  It is very much appreciated that you took the time to provide us with your feedback. We are glad to hear that you found the information provided for the area useful, and we can only apologise for the disturbances you experienced due to the building work. Sadly, external work on neighbouring properties or areas is something we cannot control, and we try to find out as much information as we can in order to best advice our guests. As it was nearing completion, we expect that it would still have been ongoing to an extent, but not as disruptive as it may have previously been. We hope that you would stay at Headford Cottage one day in the future and we wish you all the best. Many thanks, Character Cottages Property Owner

• "We were a party of 4 and used all 3 bedrooms which was ideal for us."

  We particularly appreciated the 2 bathrooms and downstairs toilet as one of the party has bladder problems. We also appreciated the 2 parking spaces as we came in 2 cars. The location was great and we walked into the centre very quickly. The house was well equipped - dishwasher, washer etc were all great. Only thing I couldn’t find was a bread bin! Hope the houses being built at the back don’t spoil the privacy as we enjoyed sitting out so much.

  Lots of peace and quiet, even though it was only 5 mins from the centre of Stow. The Owners kindly provided a concise book of instructions on how to use the appliances, including the TV, Sky and the DVD player - the best I've ever seen!
