“This is a lovely little cottage.”

We stayed for 6 nights and we really enjoyed it. It is nice and peaceful and in a great location, it’s a short walk to the village and a 20 min walk into Stratford upon Avon. I’d highly recommend it or the cottage next door if there are more of you.

Wi-fi poor.

Mr Doughty June 2021

“Superb location, walking distance to Stratford upon Avon a local convenience store and restaurants with a very handy takeaway service.”

Accommodation was very peaceful and the owners very helpful.

Mr Johnson June 2021

“Unfortunately the pictures do not portray how very small the bedroom and the en-suite are.”

This property really is adequate for a 3 night stay, not 7nights as we had, as the bedroom is small for two people to comfortably dress/undress and move around in especially as there is no storage space for cases and bags and the bed is just about 12" from the ill- fitting' sliding door to bathroom with toilet immediately beyond, making privacy difficult. The cottage was clean with basic essentials, no welcome pack, which is always a lovely gesture. It is very quiet and in a good position for visiting surrounding area.

Mr Emanuel September 2020

“Very poorly cleaned.”

Cobwebs everywhere, including spiders in their webs, dead spiders hanging. Shower room not cleaned carefully, as grime on floor perimeters, soap stains to shower tiles, dust on ledges behind toilet. Certainly no smell of cleaning fluids. Mouse droppings around and under fridge. Headboard dusty. Bbq grill & oven base not cleaned. Black scuff marks on walls ( removed some ourselves quite easily). Otherwise a nice accommodation ideally located for our needs.

Mr Woodthorpe September 2020

“Considering that things are very different during this trying period of Coronavirus, this cottage was excellent value for money and a cosy base to explore Sratford upon Avon.”

It was clean, warm and had everything we could need (except egg cups _ LOL)! Andrea the owner came to visit us on our first full day to see if we needed anything She is a lovely lady and very friendly, giving us tips on where to visit, eat etc.(We can thoroughly recommend Mr Chans Chinese restaurant, just a 5 min walk away in the village) We had a wonderful weekend here and even brought home a huge bag of cooking apples, kindly given to us by Andrea's Dad next door. Thoroughly recommend this cottage or the one next door, very quiet and peaceful, but with plenty to do around the immediate area.

“A lovely cosy cottage, ideal for a couple.”

Close to Stratford-upon-Avon, which has lots of places to visit and for eating.

“The Bolt Hole is in and excellent location and is lovely and peaceful, however it is in need of some TLC and a really good clean.”

The bathroom has mold in between the tiles in the shower and around the floor, the windows were dirty, the cushions on the outdoor furniture are covered in mold, there was dust on the skirting boards and crumbs in the kitchen drawers. We were really surprised to find it wasn't up to standard especially as we are in the midst of a pandemic !

“The bolt hole is a fab cottage, everything we needed cannot fault anything, it ...”

The bolt hole is a fab cottage, everything we needed cannot fault anything, it was comfortable and fab decor with a little garden to sit out in, it was peaceful to say there is a caravan park close by, we got the river taxi into Stratford-Upon-Avon which was lovely and we also parked in the long stay car park at the butterfly farm just up the road when visiting Stratford-Upon-Avon, the butterfly farm was a great place to visit and also all the other attractions, we loved our stay and can highly recommend the Bolt hole and Stratford-upon-Avon, we also visited Chipping campden and Broadway, all in all we had a great week with plenty to see and do

Mr Lowe July 2019

“A very nice & comfortable cottage in quiet location.”

The Bolt Hole is a short walk from the river. You can get the river taxi into Stratford. The Riverside Park has a large restaurant over looking the river This makes The Bolt Hole even more attractive cottage. Score 9 out of 10.

- Mr Lowe, July 2019
Mr Maddison July 2019

“The bolt hole was in a good position for accessing the town either by walking (25 minutes) or by river taxi (£2).”

The Riverside caravan park is right next door and has entertainment on at weekends although the drinks are expensive. There is a pub, Chinese restaurant /take away and Spar shop about 500 yards away. The owners of the Bolthole were very welcoming and gave us a welcoming pack of milk,biscuits,chocolate,bread, butter, orange juice and more. The details of how to find the cottage once you have entered the driveway could be a bit clearer. The shower cubicle needs a wider screen or curtain to stop water splashing on the floor, but they are minor defects. We had a great time at the Bolthole and I would recommend it to my friends.

- Mr Maddison, July 2019
Mr Flitton July 2019

“We were very satisfied with accomadation, the parking was easy, being on the edge of caravan / camping site was not a problem well kept and organised the riverside restaurant and bar was fantastic no restiction on us to use.”

The river taxi very easy to get to centre of Stratford We recommend nice break July/Aug

- Mr Flitton, July 2019
Mr Oliver June 2019

“This lovely little cottage is spotlessly clean and very comfortable.”

The owners went over and above other holiday property owners by leaving quite a few items to be used ie milk, bread, jam etc. There is also a barbeque in the garden and it was supplied with charcoal also. This was our first visit to the Stratford upon Avon area but it won't be our last.

- Mr Oliver, June 2019
Mr Satherley June 2019

“This location certainly met our expectations, easy walking distance of Stratford, although a 6 seater boat was available every 30 minutes (very relaxing).”

The bar and restaurant on the camp site were very good, although I would recommend the"Dirty Duck " in Stratford, situated adjacent to the RSC theatre. The Bolt Hole was very quiet and clean. EXCELLENT.

- Mr Satherley, June 2019
Ms Whitehead April 2019

“Lovely bolt hole, well named and in a wonderful position.”

Easy access into Stratford by car, bus, foot or boat. Facilities were good and the owner was very informative and helpful. Thoroughly recommend.

- Ms Whitehead, April 2019
Mr Preston March 2019

“We had a fantastic holiday.”

When we arrived we were greeted by the owner who was very nice and gave us a quick tour of The Bolt Hole which we appreciated. He also told us where to eat and drink near by. We would recommend staying here as we were very satisfied with the peace and comfort that it gave us

- Mr Preston, March 2019
Mrs Farndon March 2019

“We had a lovely relaxing stay at the bolt hole.”

It’s was so cosy, had everything that we needed for the weekend. Really appreciated all of the extra touches such as the fridge being stoked with fresh milk, butter and orange juice. And the fresh pastry’s and jam and chocolate was a lovely touch. Such a lovely location with a short walk into Stratford. Will love to come back again!
