  • "Great location in Burford within walking distance to all local amenities and excellent pubs and restaurants."

    On site parking was a big plus. The accommodation was spotlessly clean with everything you would need. The location is excellent for exploring the area, including Blenheim Palace, Oxford and good walks from the apartment. We would not hesitate to return for a further visit.

    Thank you for you feedback. We are very pleased that you enjoyed your stay in Burford and we look forward to welcoming you back. Andrew & Judith Property Owner

  • "We had a lovely few days break in 5 Burford Mews."

    The apartment was fitted and furnished to a very high standard and was an excellent base from which to explore Burford and the Cotswolds. The lounge was spacious, light and very comfortable for relaxing in on lazy, late mornings or in the evenings. Beds were very comfortable with lovely soft pillows and duvets that kept us just warm enough but not too hot like many duvets in hotels. Showers were really good with plenty of hot water. The kitchen was nicely laid out although we didn't do much, if any, cooking so can't comment on the usability of the oven, etc! The property was really clean and well maintained and was comfortably warm and it was really good to be able to adjust the thermostats to suit ourselves. I'm sure we will return if/when we next fancy a break in the Cotswolds.

    Thank you for this lovely review which is much appreciated. We're delighted you enjoyed your stay and found the apartment to be so well equipped and comfortable. We would love to welcome you again. Best wishes Manor Cottages Property Owner

About the location

Burford

Burford is possibly one of, if not THE most famous of the Cotswolds' locations. With its medieval bridge, old stone houses and attractive Tudor and Georgian frontages, Burford is justifiably one of the most picturesque towns in England. Often referred to as the 'Gateway to the Cotswolds', the town was originally a fortified Anglo-Saxon ford which later grew to be an important regional crossroads and wealthy wool town. Located mid way between Oxford and Cheltenham (25 mins each away) it is a little haven of history and beauty that many come to fall in love with when they visit.

The 16th century Tolsey building, once the meeting place for medieval merchants, now houses The Tolsey Museum, a delightful local museum illustrating the town's social and industrial past. The church is stunning, a real gem architecturally with many interesting memorials charting some of Burford's great families. There is also the signature, on the baptisimal font, of Antony Sedley, one of the Levellers besieged in the church in 1649 - three of the ringleaders were executed by Oliver Cromwell's men in the churchyard. History awaits!

With little changing over the centuries, Burford is now very popular with visitors, both for its beauty and history but also for its shopping and antiques, and for the wide variety of places to eat, with restaurants, pubs and teashops. It is an ideal base for visiting The Cotswolds area as it is within easy driving distance of popular attractions such as Blenheim Palace, Sudley Castle, Warwick Castle and several National Trust Houses and Gardens. Bourton on the Water, Bibury, Cirencester and Stow on the Wold are all with 25 minutes from the property.

This property has a Good House Keeping bond to the value of £100
The apartment is all on the ground floor.

This property offers the following short breaks:
