Dove Cottage (Naunton)

We enjoyed our holiday in this cosy well equipped little cottage and we were delighted with the owners gifts on arrival - milk, chocolates and prosecco!

Thank you. The accommodation was accurately described and we did initially have some difficulty in negotiating the stairs and shower/bath, but perfected our techniques over the week! If I have to list something negative it would be the lack of cleaning products to clean up before leaving.

Gorgeous little cottage!

Nestled in a little quiet cluster you will find Dove Cottage just before or after approaching a bridge covering a trickling river. Peace and quiet with the sounds of the resident doves. Everything you need is inside and a wonderful outdoor area for breakfast, lunch, evening drinks and dinner. Beautiful stay.

Small and cost cottage with almost all amenities you need.

Beautiful surroundings with many things to see (Roman villas, Sudeley Castle) and many nice walks within a few miles. The Blackhorse Inn deserves a special mention, very nice place with excellent food. Had an excellent stay at Naunton!

Very well provided and maintained property in a lovely Cotswolds village.

There was a TV problem which the owner corrected as quickly as possible. The cottage is situated in an attractive but unspoiled part of the Cotswolds.

An excellent base for exploring the Cotswolds.

We spent 4 nights at Dove Cottage and in addition to some enjoyable walks around Naunton itself we had trips out to Broadway Tower and Snowshill (National Trust); Chedworth Roman Villa (NT) and Cirencester; Hidcote (also NT) and Chipping Campden; and so made good use of our NT membership.

A very pleasant, well maintained property with all the amenities provided.

Slightly awkward access to the bath/shower but probably only to be expected in an older property. Would definitely recommend this cottage. A delightful location.

A delightful cosy cottage

Dove cottage is a truly beautiful space.

The cottage is quaint and well appointed. We had all we needed for our 8 day stay. The hosts communicated well. Everything was easy and hassle free. The bottle of bubbles and chocolates were a lovely touch. We are sorry we missed you when you visited.

Lovely cottage with masses of character, located in a beautiful, quiet village.

Property was clean and very comfortable and a perfect base for exploring the local area.

We had a lovely stay at Dove Cottage.

On arrival, we were welcomed by fresh milk, chocolates and prosecco. The owner later arrived and made sure we had everything we needed. The House was lovely and clean and the facilities were excellent. The only recommendation I would say would be to get a more comfortable mattress in the main bedroom. Otherwise I couldn't complain. The other nice part of the property was the outside seating area, it was so peaceful and if you want to sit and read a book then this place is perfect.

Lovely cosy cottage in a great village location.

Very well equipped and comfortable. Some great walking from the door and the village pub is always very welcoming. The owners were warm and welcoming, whether in person or on the phone prior to arrival. This is an old, character property and the details do highlight that and the inherent features that some today may find different or difficult. The stairs are steep but there are plenty of hand rails. There is only a hand-held shower over the freestanding slipper bath (you can’t stand up) but that adds to them charm of the cottage. Some ceilings are sloped and low and give the cottage extra character. In terms of the parking space, I got a large estate car in but appreciate it is tight but there is plenty of on-road parking if you prefer.

Attractive cottage, well equipped and location in Naunton was good.

Steep stairs and bath close to eaves but not a real problem. In addition to small parking space we found it easy to park a few steps away near the church. Pub friendly. Owner very helpful.

Small lovely cottage in a peaceful village , central for visiting other areas .

Extremely helpful and accommodating owners would not hesitate to recommend.

This cottage is beautiful,located in a chocolate box type village in a beautiful valley.

Small but pleasantly spacious with everything you need for a self catering week away. The only drawback is the bathroom, being in the eves of the house you need to be under 5ft 6, there is also no shower, just a shower head in the bath which is difficult if again you on the larger side of life. That being said you will be very comfortable here and you will enjoy your stay.

Great property, beautiful location.

The stairs are an issue if infirm but what a great find for us.

We loved our stay in the beautiful Dove Cottage.

It felt like such a proper Cotswolds’ experience and the village was stunning. The bubbly and chocolates on arrival were a wonderful surprise. Bob and Barbara were very helpful, including when we changed our minds about the bed configuration at the last minute. Bob popped over to welcome us but other than that we were left to enjoy the cottage independently. Instructions were very informative. We also made friends with a delightful elderly cat next door called Dave; my three year old adored him! The stairs were steep, as expected in an old property, but didn’t phase us or our toddler. The parking was fine for our smaller car. Overall, a wonderful stay with lovely hosts. Thank you very much.

Lovely cosy cottage.

The only very minor bit of feedback is the parking space is tight, fine for is but would be difficult with a big car, but despite that, a lovely stay and will definitely return

A nice small cottage in an excellent location.

Well fitted with plenty of hot water and a comfortable bed on the second floor. The stairs are steep and headroom in the bathroom and kitchen is an issue if you are over 5’10’’. The owners are helpful. There is no shop in the village but an excellent pub.

Beautiful located in a small village.

Property owner was so kind to come by and see if everything was OK and was also very quick in fixing the toilet. Improvements can be found in better mattress for the double bed, more glasses/mugs and saucers.

Beautiful cottage, perfectly placed in fabulous surroundings.

Every comfort provided, and the hosts left us a bottle of Prosecco on our arrival, which was perfect as it was my birthday.

I had a lovely week.

The cottage had everything I needed and was spotlessly clean. The bed was extremely comfortable. And the owners thoughtfully left a bottle of wine and some chocolates as a welcome gift. The kitchen had fairly low headroom which made cooking rather challenging for a tall person like me, but it was manageable. Overall my experience was very positive. I would recommend this cottage.

Great little cottage in a friendly village, great location for visiting stow and Bourton, Stratford and Oxford, warm comfortable property with helpful owners

Comfortable and peaceful.

Character cottage with all you need. Great log burner

This is a cosy cottage in a gorgeous village surrounded by horse breeding/training country.

My only complaint is about all the low beams! Especially in the bathroom; otherwise, it is a pretty, comfortable, and well-equipped cottage.

Dove Cottage is a lovely place to stay and in a great location for walks and sightseeing.

The local pub is in walking distance which is very handy. The cottage is both spotless and well equipped and we enjoyed everything about our stay. Thank you Barbara and Bob..

We had everything we would need at this quaint cottage… your little touches from the welcome package and the fire lighting kit and notes made it perfect.

Its location is ideal for exploring, with a good local pub and access to many walks.. we will definitely be back!

A beautiful character cottage in a lovely, secluded Cotswold village.

Our only comment is that from the listing we didn't fully appreciate how low the ceiling is in the 1st floor bathroom which does make comfortable use of both the toilet and bath rather difficult. Otherwise, a superb location and we had the most wonderful stay.

We had a lovely stay at dove cottage and naunton was just lovely!

Cottage was compact but had all we needed.. a shower would be an added bonus and the stairs are steep and would be hard to manage for some people ! All in all a lovely stay! Thankyou

Lovely cottage in the beautiful village of Naunton.

Very peaceful and tucked away but yet within easy driving distance everything the Cotswolds has to offer. Very clean and cosy inside . Bed linen of very good quality and the upstairs bed very comfortable indeed. Nice little terraced garden and gorgeous views. Lovely to hear the horses clipping by in the mornings. Bob and Barbara are wonderful hosts and we will be back

Dove Cottage was just perfect.

The property was well presented, clean and comfortable. The location was superb, Naunton was a beautiful village, and a great base for exploring the Cotswolds.

We have just spent a lovely week at Dove Cottage in Naunton.

We were after a total get away from it all, relaxing break from our busy lives and we certainly had that at Dove Cottage. On arrival we were greeted with milk in the fridge, chocolates & prosecco. A nice touch by the owner. The property is well designed for a small Cottage. We were asked by the owner if we would like the bed in the loft space to be be made into a King size rather than two singles before we arrived. There is a comfortable double on the second floor. It's a very clean and well organised property. Naunton is a beautiful village with a very good pub within walking distance. Stow & Bourton are the closest villages for shops. Both are great for eating out. We took our 20 month old Jack Russell with us, who throughly enjoyed the walks and meeting the many horses in the local fields. We left the dogs 'Colin the Catapillar' and the owner has very kindly posted him back to us. A lovely break in a lovely part of the world.

A lovely cottage in a magical situation.

Would love to have stayed for 2 weeks.

We had a great time in Naunton staying at Dove Cottage.

The location is excellent, with beautiful countryside and villages all around, and many nearby places of interest to visit. Dove Cottage is lovely, but the stairs and the bath provide problems for those who have mobility problems. However, this is made clear in the property details and did not come as surprise. We were greeted with a bottle of Prosecco and a box of chocolates, which was a lovely touch. We would very happily return for future visits.

Had a wonderful stay in Naunton exploring the surrounding area.

Lovely friendly place to visit and local pub within walking distance. Cottage had all the facilities you could wish for on a short break with a lovely log burner for chilly evenings. Definitely recommend anyone looking for a quiet wind down midweek or weekend break.

What a beautiful cottage.

We fell in love with this gorgeous village, quiet and friendly. The care and attention from the owners was excellent- fizz, chocolates and milk left for us which was so thoughtful. The cottage was beautifully clean and well equipped and just perfect for a stay in the Cotswolds. A check in from Bob was a great touch on Saturday morning- caring and helpful. We would definitely stay here again.

The cottage is delightful.

The log burning stove makes the house very warm. Bob and Barbara could not have been more helpful. In general the facilities in the house are excellent. Would be great to have a shower but understand by the size and lay out of the cottage this is not possible. One very small thing i did find the bedroom at the top of the house was a bit cold despite turning the heating up. But all in all a lovely cottage and we would happily stay there again

We loved our stay in Dove Cottage, thank you!

! Bob and Barbara made us feel very welcome with fizz and chocolates. The cottage was meticulously clean and cosy and set in a lovely spot in the village. We hope to be back again one day soon!!

Lovely little cottage , situated in a picturesque village.

Ideally located for walks to Guiting Power, Bourton on the water to name a few. Owners were very welcoming. Nice clean property. Would recommend. There's a local pub which is dog friendly and very welcoming too.

Beautiful, well equipped, cottage in a pretty village.

It was extremely peaceful. Being able to walk in any direction was a bonus.

We have had a lovely stay in this beautiful cottage.

Thank you for the fizz and chocolates! We have really enjoyed exploring the local areas. Thank you for a lovely stay!

We very much enjoyed our stay in your lovely cottage in beautiful Naunton.

Everthing we needed was provided and thought about. We had delicious lunches at the Kingham Plough, the Wild Rabbit and the Horse & Groom at Oddington. The pups loved the walks over the fields.

Another wonderful break at our favourite spot in the Cotswolds!

Lots of walking and of course the obligatory stop-off to the pubs along the way. The weather was good to us so the views around were perfect. Thank you so much again for the fizz and chocs! We hope we can come and stay again at Dove Cottage soon!

Lovely, well-equipped cottage.

Thank you for the chocolates and fizz!

Bob and Barbara's cottage was a lovely place to stay for a weekend away in the Cotswolds.

It's nicely located and has access to everywhere you'd need to go. The cottage was spotless and decorated very nicely, underfloor heating was especially nice after coming in from freezing temperatures outside! Would happily recommend and stay again.

Lovely, cosy cottage in the heart of the Cotswolds.

Beautiful house with a great location to access many of the cotswolds best sights.

Lovely cottage in a beautiful area.

Would highly recommend for a quiet weekend.

Thanks, we loved your house and had a great weekend thanks!

Thanks for a great stay, kindly postponed from lockdown!

The cottage is lovely - really well equipped, well modernised, spotlessly clean and very warm. We enjoyed lots of walks including to the Hollow Bottom at Guiting Power. Food at the Black Horse is good. Fizz and chocs appreciated, many thanks.

Beautiful cottage in a wonderful location.

Blessed with great weather and walked for miles and miles. Plough Inn at Ford and Hollow Bottom at Guiting Power - amazing food and local cider! Will visit again thank you.

Thanks so much for the fizz and chocs which met us on arrival.

We love your beautiful cottage and would definitely recommend. Everything you could want/need is here in this peaceful village and cottage. Having read the extra Covid-19 cleaning protocols in place we feel really safe and thank you and your staff for working hard on behalf of your guests.

Lovely cottage in a beautiful location.

Highly recommended.

Great location, lovely cottage with great hosts.

A lovely place to stay!

A nice quiet little village in the heart of the Cotswolds. We loved being in a central location and there was easy access to all the main towns. The house was very clean and well maintained. Really enjoyed our relaxing week there.

The cottage is lovely, beautifuly decorated and very cute.

The location is wonderfull, right in the middle of Naunton and the Cotswolds. We really enjoyed our stay and hope to come back sometime!

Amazing quiet little place, wonderful for the family.

Beautiful village with plenty of scenic walks

Our stay in Dove cottage was great.

We loved putting up here for the time we did. Bob was absolutely attentive to our calls, queries and very helpful too in the best possible way. Attention has been given to the finest detail in the amenities provided and this was a hit with us. The quality of everything - household wares, linens and utensils was incredible. Anyone would enjoy staying here and not to mention it’s perfect serene location and neighbourhood.

Dove Cottage was an absolute joy.

It made for the perfect countryside retreat. We loved how cosy and authentic it was while containing so many modern features such as a fully equipped kitchen and underfloor heating. The location was wonderful for a place where you could truly escape from it all. We will surely return!

This cottage is in such a fantastic location in the Cotswolds.

Naunton is right in the centre of everything and if you have a car you can arrive to Bourton-on-the-water in 10 minutes. There are also beautiful walks through the countryside on your doorstep and the town has a wonderful small community feel. The house itself is so quaint. We were there for Christmas and the hosts had left a huge basket of food including chocolates, wine, cheese and bubbly. We would definitely come back! They made us feel so welcome.

Lovely, cosy, immaculately clean cottage in a beautiful, unspoilt, and exceptionally friendly village with a very lively and welcoming local pub.

We had a lovely stay at Dove cottage.

Prosecco and chocolates on arrival was a nice touch. The cottage was very clean and you can see that the host goes to an effort to make it a nice place for visitors to stay in. The village of Naunton was also lovely.

Dove cottage was a little slice of heaven, as was Naunton.

We could have not asked for a better experience. Super cozy, surreal location, and an overall special place. We enjoyed all of the local walking paths, the great pub down the road, and just sitting out front playing Scrabble with our kids (12 & 14). Our kids LOVED it- as did we. We all have said we WILL return someday. Thank you. Also, the owner popped by the day after we arrived to make sure all was 'good'. That was much appreciated.

Wonderful and cozy little cottage.

Kitchen equipment perfect. Beds very comfortable. Nice little garden. Very quiet. Very friendly and helpful owners. We will definitely come again.

We had a lovely stay in Dove Cottage.

When you walk out off the driveway, you're at the prettiest spot in Naunton. There are lots of nice things to do in the area. We loved going to the farm park with our little boy and to the Bathsford arboretum. The cottage is so cosy and everything was provided for and Bob was very helpful and quick to respond to our texts.

Beautiful cottage.

Very clean. Luxurious towels. Fizz in the fridge. Lovely local pub and fantastic walks all around. So peaceful. Would highly recommend it for a romantic break.

The cottage was warm, spotless and in an idyllic location.

Homely cottage with great amenities in a fabulous setting.

Wonderful place to recharge our batteries.

Dove Cottage was amazing!

Our family felt like we were home as soon as we stepped in the beautiful blue door. The cottage is cosy, charming, comfortable, and impeccably clean. All of ones needs are accounted for by the owners - from nightlights to torches to hair dryers and welcome gifts. They have truly thought of it all. Additionally, the kitchen has all you need to prepare a nice meal. If you're not in the mood to cook, we highly recommend the pubs in the local area. The Black Horse and the Hollow Bottom were both friendly and served excellent meals. Situated right off the stream and amidst numerous trekking routes, we were in heaven. The village is lovely too. Do take some time to explore it! Bottom line: if you are looking for a wonderful cottage in a gorgeous area, look no further!

We've had a great week in this cottage, the kids (and we) really loved it!

And the Cotswolds are beautiful!

A wonderful stay in Dove Cottage.

The perfect place to stay and explore the Cotswolds. Many thanks.

We had a great time at your lovely cottage.

The weather was magnificent! And so we really enjoyed our stay very much!

Oh, what a place!

We are excited about the house, the village and the landscape. One week is definitely too short for visiting all. We must come back.

We have had a wonderful weekend made all the better by your beautiful cottage, so warm and cosy.

Thank you so much for everything.

Absolutely fantastic, we hope to return again soon.

We had a very pleasant stay.

The neighbours are really friendly, it's a beautiful village and location. The cottage has everything you need.

Very clean, exceptionally beautiful part of the Cotswolds, we walked with our dog around Naunton it was lovely and quaint and less touristy than other parts.

The home was clean and had everything we needed. If I came back to Cotwolds I would definitely stay again!

The cottage was ideal for our weekend break, perched in the midst of the Cotswolds and surrounded by beautiful countryside.

Conveniently there is also very welcoming pub within close walking distance! The house was quaint on the outside and modern, clean and well-appointed in the inside. A lovely touch was the bottle of bubbles and the chocolate Easter bunny to welcome us. Felt relaxed from start to finish.

Lovely cottage.

Warm, cosy and well equipped. Comfortable beds and immaculately clean. Highly recommended.

A lovely clean homely small character Cottage in a lovely location for exploring the Cotswolds.

A very late booking completed efficiently by Character Cottages. Thank you.

Great location, spotlessly clean and well equipped.

Would definitely recommend!

We have had a lovely weekend at Dove cottage.

Beautiful place! Thank you for the bubbles too!

Amazing cottage, lovely weather.

Will be back! Thanks.

Thank you.

We have had such a lovely stay here, our boys don’t want to leave. They love the underfloor heating in the bathroom. We really enjoyed the walk from Naunton across the fields to Guiting Power. Slightly caught out by the clocks changing but managed to find our way back in the dark. Amazing cottage, comfortable and clean, thank you for the prosecco! Enjoyed a long, long game of Monopoly by the fire. We will be back!

This cottage is absolutely amazing.

We loved every minute of our stay here. Our daughter loved it and now doesn’t want to go home. We will love to come back to this beautiful quaint location.

We had a wonderful relaxing 2 nights in Dove Cottage.

It has been done superbly throughout. Thanks.

Friends were visiting from Australia and they chose this beautiful place to stay.

We loved the beautiful cottage. The beds and sheets were so cosy. Everything was clean and available to use. Black Horse Inn set menu on a Monday is a must! Thank you for the experience.

We have had a lovely few days at Dove Cottage.

Loved the area and the cottage and hope to return to explore some more!

Beautiful old cottage.

We really enjoyed our stay at Dove Cottage. It was very comfortable and was well equipped and in a lovely Cotswold village. The local pub was friendly and we enjoyed a great meal there.

Lovely cottage.

Cosy, immaculate, comfortable in lovely Cotswolds. Great 3 generation break.

Great place.

Very clean and well fitted out two bedroom. Very comfortable and off street parking for one car. The Black Horse Tavern down the street was excellent for dinner.

Beautiful cottage in a lovely corner of the Cotswolds.

We had a fantastic weekend stay in Dove Cottage! It was perfect for five of us (friends) and was spotlessly clean. The cottage has a lovely cosy feel and is beautifully finished with everything you need. The beds were so comfortable, too! The location is perfect for everything. We enjoyed a great walk along the Cotswolds Way to Broadway Tower (which starts just a few hundred metres from the cottage) and it was great to be able to walk to Broadway's lovely shops and pubs in just a few minutes. I'd highly recommend a stay at Dove Cottage!

Thanks for allowing us to stay in your lovely cottage.

It was perfect - bed really comfortable, fire ace. Partridge pie in the pub recommended! Great to hear owls at night and horses in the mooring too!

We’ve had a really lovely time at Dove Cottage.

Loved having a log fire now we’re heading into autumn.

We have enjoyed our stay in your lovely, cosy cottage.

Out and about every day despite the weather. Richard and Diane Shales

Thank you so much for sharing your wonderful cottage with us.

We’ve had a wonderful week exploring a gorgeous part of the world made all the better by the welcome we found in your cottage! Very comfy and a great location!

Had a lovely few days.

Cottage was really nice and quaint. Black Horse was a regular spot as kids loved it!

Excellent.

Well equipped. Lovely spot for touring. Lovely neighbours.

We’ve had a lovely time staying here.

A great location too! Monday £10 dinner at the Black Horse Inn was great and we also enjoyed meals at the Ebrington Arms and the Old Butcher’s Shop in Stow-on-the-Wold. Great walks in the surrounding areas too (although a little wet!).

Lovely cottage, well equipped with everything you need.

Great food at Hollow Bottom pub. Weather not too good but still had a great time exploring the area.

Absolutely brilliant, very clean.

Lovely people in the village and nice surrounding areas.

We had a fantastic time here and really love the cottage.

Such a beautiful part of the world.

The cottage is a great place in a gorgeous village.

It’s quiet and lovely, there is a lot of pleasant walks in the countryside.

We’ve had a fantastic time in this beautiful, well-appointed cottage – everything we’d hoped for and more.

Perfect part of the Cotswolds to explore with a huge range of dog friendly sites and amenities on the doorstep. Thank you so much.

Thank you for your warm welcome.

We’ve had a great time in Dove Cottage. We also made good use of the maps and have seen a lot of this beautiful area. It is a perfect place to stay.

Pleasant, well equipped cottage in a beautiful, friendly village.

A great base for exploring the area.

Lovely cottage in a wonderful location.

We so enjoyed sitting (and eating meals) in the beautiful garden. What a great part of the Cotswolds to explore.
