  • “The cottage is advertised as having a cot and high chair.”

    Yes, there is a cot but it is a travel cot ( which we couldn't fold up at the end of the week-sorry!)

    Yes, there is a cot but it is a travel cot ( which we couldn't fold up at the end of the week-sorry!) Whilst this was fine for our 11 month Grandson,it would possible not have been big enough for an older toddler. Could this possibly be stated in the cottage information on the web site. Swinbrook is a picture perfect village with everything easily accessible and beautiful local walks. We would certainly stay here in this wonderful cottage again.

    - Mr Lewis, June 2021

    Thank you for taking the time to feedback on your stay. I apologise that the cot wasn't quite what you'd expected. Unfortunately, whilst we would love to provide bigger cots, we can only offer travel cots at this time. We understand that they may no be suitable for some of our guests. We're pleased to hear that you enjoyed your stay at Hillside Cottage and are looking forward to welcoming you back to the Cotswolds in the future. - Sykes owner relations

The property

Hillside Cottage, Swinbrook is a stunning 5 star cottage, presented to the highest standard and without question one of the finest cottages in the Burford region.

The owners have overseen a superb renovation of one of the oldest cottages in this historic village to provide sumptuous (a word we haven't used on a cottage before!) self catering accommodation in a location that overlooks the village church - a truly quintessential spot.

The kitchen is the real heart of the home: beautiful with high quality materials, and Aga and views across the enclosed garden.

The four bedrooms and three bathrooms are similarly stylish, spacious and gorgeous.

We are bowled over by this cottage (one of the team wants to move in!) and we are quite certain you will be too.

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.
