Mr. and Mrs. Grant

The property is just as it's presented. We stayed over 3 weeks so we can safely say it was very nice. Parking for 1 small car worked well. It's tight but as expected and we didn't worry about damage or finding a spot. The shower was fantastic. We had what we needed. The location worked well for exploring the areas in all directions. (Cotswolds, Bath, Highclere Castle, and Wales, etc) and we were glad to be able to experience a proper village rather than the more touristy towns. A view of real village life from the kitchen window, the sound of riders clip clopping by on horseback, a quiet walk to see signs of Christmas, all were appreciated. Note: The Queen Matilda pub is closed. We would especially recommend The Ragged Cot for any meal. Tetbury, Nailsworth and Stroud, Minchinhampton are all about equidistant from the cottage. Lifelong memories were made over our special Christmas at Hillside Cottage.

Beautifully appointed cottage

The furnishings and decor are all beautiful in this cottage and we had a really lovely 4 night stay. We were a little unlucky that the closest pub was closed for refurbishment and the next had no food due to illness, but clearly not the fault of the cottage! The only real issue is the parking. It’s probably ok if you come in 1 small vehicle, but my sister and I travelled from different parts of the country and met there. I was fortunate to be greeted by the property manager/owner who advised that 1 car could go on the drive and the other behind it on Mill Lane. We put the smallest car on the little drive but after only half an hour of the other car being parked in Mill Lane there was hammering on the door and an aggressive neighbour complained. I diffused the situation by being polite to him and moving the car but it’s fairly clear that the neighbours don’t like this property being a holiday rental as he said he “was sick of this”. We weren’t really relaxed the whole of the first evening as a result of being shouted at by a strange man. Another neighbour regularly uses the cottage bin and looks in through the window as she does! Such a shame, because other than the parking situation / neighbours the cottage is really lovely!

Very nice house in a lovely village.

The house was very comfortable and the village was charming. There is a choice of two pubs but we did not discover whether there was a local shop. Parking is limited and it isn’t clear where the designated parking space is at the rear of the property. We also noted that the bathroom had a leaking tap and a wobbly toilet seat. It could also do with more hooks for towels etc.
