Lovely cottage with a sunny garden. Nice decoration. Parking nearby is sometimes difficult. 10 minutes walk to the city center or the Waitrose supermarket, but both are a steep climb back. Stroud is not very attractive, but lots of beautiful Cotswold villages within a 30 to 45 minutes drive.

Delightful 3 week stay

Loved my stay at the Market Lodge. Dom was very communicative and met every need. The location was great (just a 5 minute walk to High Street). It’s a lovely, cozy lodge and was perfect for my sabbatical! I look forward to another stay in the future!

Lovely little place

This is a delightful little house with all the conveniences, close to town, good restaurants and the railway station. Maybe not so good for people with mobility issues because of the stairs up to the bedrooms and bathroom. Comfortable and clean.

Adorable cottage

Loved this cottage and my stay in Stroud. Dominic answered all my questions before arriving and even checked in once I arrived. The cottage was close to tow and an easy walk. The cottage did not lack for anything. Thoroughly enjoyed my time.

Small and perfectly formed

What a great place. Cozy, snug, beautifully appointed. It’s small, but space is used so perfectly that it’s not a problem - in fact it just adds to the character and coziness. It’s also minutes walk into the town centre, but better for us it was minutes to the canal path and the great walks along it. And when they say “dog friendly” they really mean it. Treats left, a fantastic bed space etc. What a great find.

Sublime

What an amazing cottage. The attention to detail was flawless. The whole cottage was beautifully and tastefully decorated with every little detail thought of. Beds were very comfortable and bath tub with the bath salts was luxurious. Spoilt for choice with sitting areas. The outdoor area is charming and very peaceful. Loved all the decor. The kitchen is extremely well equipped with everything you need and a cupboard with some very handy supplies. We loved our stay and would love to return again. Just amazing. Pure heaven. Thank you so much.

Visiting family in Stroud.

We enjoyed our week in Stroud but did not find this cottage very comfortable. (We are frequent users of holiday rentals). The current layout and furnishings make this cottage suitable for 3 people rather than 4 guests as advertised. The second bedroom has a very small double bed surrounded on three sides by walls and therefore very difficult for 2 people to use. The sitting area has a large two seater sofa and one armchair - again perfectly comfortable for 3 but not four guests especially so if watching TV together. Potential guests are also advised that the shower requires adopting a crouching position if you are of above average height and the bath being positioned on a narrow platform beneath a very low sloping ceiling requires a certain level of agility to use safely. We were amused at the provision of numerous cook books when there is no food preparation area in the otherwise well equipped kitchen. However, the rental cost compares very unfavourably with that of other accommodation we have used in recent times.

Lovely little cottage great for a short break. We were 2 couples and it suited us just fine had everything we needed. Situated in a narrow street, no problem finding on street parking and we had 2 cars. Stroud is a lovely place with a great farmers market on Saturday which was only a short from the cottage.

charmantes kleines Cottage

Hübsches kleines Cottage, in dem alles vorhanden ist, was man für den Aufenthalt benötigt. Sehr ruhig gelegen, Supermarkt und Ortszentrum zu Fuß sehr gut zu erreichen. Parkmöglichkeiten in der engen Gasse etwas beschränkt. Empfehlenswert.

Está correctamente descrito.

La vivienda está bien para lo que buscábamos. Cenar y dormir en la zona para hacer excursiones. No tiene armarios roperos aunque en una de las habitaciones pequeñas tiene unos pequeños colgadores. Estamos 3 por lo que no tuvimos espacio. Con una cómoda alta lo podría solucionar. Más allá de esto, crítica constructiva, la opinión es buena en relación calidad-precio.

Sehr schön aber klein

Dieses Cottage ist sehr liebevoll eingerichtet und hat alles was man braucht. Man muss wissen, dass das Haus wirklich sehr klein ist und die Deckenhöhe im Dachgeschoss niedrig. Das tut dem Vergnügen seine Zeit bei Dominic zu verbringen aber keinen Abbruch. Empfehlung!

Große Enttäuschung

Ein Lob an ihren Objektfotografen. Die Räumlichkeiten sehen mindestens doppelt so groß aus, wie in der Realität. Das Objekt ist ein Mini-Häuschen mit Mini-Zimmerchen (Ausnahme: Schlafzimmer im 2. OG), die sich auf 3 Ebenen verteilen (was in der Beschreibung nicht angegen ist). der sogenannte Garten war sehr ungepflegt und dreckig (Unkraut, Hundekot, nicht entleerter Eimer mit gefüllten Kotbeuteln), dekoriert mit häßlichen Plastikpflanzen. Die Angabe von Parkmöglichkeiten ist mit äußerster Vorsicht zu genießen. Die Lower-Street, wo sich das Objekt befindet, ist ein kurzes schmales Sträßchen, mit wenigen Parkplätzen, die nahezu permanent belegt sind, wie auch in den umgebenden Straßen. Das Objekt ist weit überteuert, für das, was es bietet.

We feel extremely hurt and disappointed by this review. Thankfully, it is not indicative of other reviews we have received. These guests were with us for over 2 weeks. Not at any point did they raise any concern with us, despite the fact that we visited the cottage during their stay to provide fresh bedding and towels. We feel that the cottage is exactly as advertised. We are just so sorry that they didn't enjoy their stay.

Quirky and we'll thought off

Thank you for a lovely break. We booked this for the proximity of different attractions. The footage itself although old is very well decorated and thought off modern amenities. We had a lovely time especially sitting and spending time in the garden The decorations and the book were specifically my favourite. Thank you for a stocked up kitchen and lovely bath 5* for looking after your guests so well
