• "We had such a lovely time in the cotswolds, made much more enjoyable by staying in your lovely cottage."

  It was so comfy and homely which is a bonus. The location was amazing. Strolling into Stow for a breakfast, coffee and a look around. Did 7 National Trust properties which was delightful. The villages are a feast to the eyes. All in all a great holiday and lovely accommodation and I would highly recommend it to anyone wanting a good holiday in a wonderful part of the UK.

• "We had a very enjoyable stay at Stow Cottage."

  Very clean with everything you could need. Beds very comfortable. Quiet location but less than five minutes walk into the centre of Stow. Bonus was the driveway parking. We enjoyed the chocolate cookies! We would book again.

• "The cottage is lovely on the outside and beautiful inside."

  Very clean and so many extras included that you wouldn't noramally think about in the kitchen. The milk & biscuits was a lovely thought for our arrival and even tissues. Weve stayed in several properties that have not had this amount of detail. Very spacious & cosy, it really did feel like home. Lots of information in the folder of places to eat etc. Sadly the Jade chinese was not great but the fish & chips were delicious. We would highly recommend this immaculate cottage.

• "Fantastic location for Stow, the property has all you need utensil-wise in the kitchen,very comfortable beds but sadly is beginning to look rather tired (decor)."

  The patio is getting over-grown with weeds. The wi-fi works but is temperamental. Would be helpful to have instruction manuals for TV, washing machine in the Welcoming Book. Check out is 10 but the cleaner turned up at 9.30, we just kept out the way but felt a bit awkward. If the above was sorted we would certainly recommend it as it is a lovely cottage in a great location.

  Thank you for sharing your feedback. The owner is planning in redecoration and gardening in the near future. Instruction manuals for the appliances are stored in a drawer. Apologies for the confusion with the housekeeper, she was waiting outside until 10.00, but was invited in to make a start. We are delighted that you enjoyed the location in Stow.

  The cottage is well appointed, comfortable and spacious that provides the perfect base to tour the cotswolds. You have to be picky to find fault with fixtures and fittings- and location is good to walk around Stow. We have stayed in half a dozen similar sized places in the vicinity but this one stands out.

  As an adult it was not easy to use. Also the racket from the social club until 1am on the Saturday night was not good. However the property was lovely, clean & comfortable. I have stayed in another cottage in Stow-on-the-Wold on previous visits but would now happily return to this one.

  It also leaked onto floor-something other guests commented on last summer but nothing been done. Bedding was appalling-flattest pillows which were not fit for purpose.The duvets were poor quality and very tired and well worn with the stuffing broken down. You talk about ‘COVID safe & clean’ but this bedding hasn’t been replaced for years & years and definitely not since reopened after COVID and is quite simply not acceptable for a rental cottage.

• "Stow Cottage was absolutely lovely, the perfect base to visit all areas of the Cotswolds."

  The cottage was exactly as described and all amenities provided for. The bottle of wine and biscuits on arrival were a lovely touch. The only issues we had during our stay was the fact that there was no welcome pack in the property so we had no idea of where to put all the various bins on collection day plus we had to sort out the previous occupants rubbish as they had put many items in the wrong bags. I contacted the owner who provided the necessary information. In every cottage we have stayed in previously there has always been a welcome folder for things like Wi-fi passwords etc. Luckily as computer engineers we knew where to look for this sort of thing. I also had to advise the owner that the dishwasher didn’t open without the kick board coming off, I found this out when it landed on my big toe! Again we have had advised the owner who was unaware of this problem. We would definitely use this cottage again and hope to be back in a couple of years.

  Many thanks for taking the time to leave your feedback on Stow Cottage. Due to Covid 19 owners were advised to remove certain items such as welcome folders from the properties, we apologise for the inconvenience this caused you. Thank you for contacting the owner during your stay so they were able to provide you with the information you required. We hope you return to the cottage in the future. Manor Cottages Property Owner

• "Great location with the benefit of off-road parking, very well equipped accommodation."

  Only slightly frustrating elements were having to put the rubbish out for recycling for the previous occupants as well as our own at the end of our stay. Also a number of switches had black tape over them which obviously shouldn’t be used, but more of why. This is especially on a 3 way switch, were there electrical issues in the property ? There were no notifications to determine this.

  Thank you for your feedback, we are sorry you had to deal with the rubbish. The black tape is on the switches as they need to remain on at all times as they are outside lights or the extractor fan. There is no problem with the electrics at all. We are pleased you enjoyed your stay and look forward to welcoming you back to Stow Cottage Property Owner

  The property on the whole was in good order through out, just a couple of small items need some attention, the taps in the on suite shower room need new washers and the hand shower in main bathroom was leaking also the taps were so hot after running a bath we had to put a towel around it to turn it off. There are signs up stating that the water is very hot but i would have thought the boiler temp could be turned down. Just one last thing all the window hinges need a good spray of WD40 as they are hard to open and close. These negative things are only a a couple of hours job but if nobody tells the owner nothing gets done, but saying all of that it was a very quiet area and a lovely cottage and would go there again.

  The quietness may soon be compromised as the allotments which were behind the house, are no fenced off for building. Parking is tight unless you have a small car. The dishwasher hadn't been emptied, nor had the recycling bins in the kitchen. This was at odds with everything else. Dishwasher tablets were listed but nor there. It is in a very good location for visits to most places in the Cotswolds and regardless of weather, there is plenty to do.
