A lovely house in the Cotswolds. Our guests also thought the house was good.A minor complaint is the central heating did not seem to work on the ground floor. I could be a problem in colder weather.

Lovely cottage in a good location

The Cottage was perfect for our weekend get-away with friends. It had everything we needed. Comfy beds, enough bathrooms for us all and a very well-equipped kitchen. The garden was lovely too and we spent most of the weekend out there.

Family weekend in the cotswolds

We had a lovely stay at the cottage and would highly recommend it. It was the perfect location to explore the Cotswolds. The garden was the focal point and we were lucky enough to have great weather to be able to enjoy it. Our kids loved playing in it. We hired a private chef one evening and the kitchen space was great for that.

Nice house, good location

A nice large property in a good location. The location does create a problem as there is no phone signal so you are reliant on the WiFi/internet. Unfortunately the internet failed throughout our visit so we felt cut off. The cost reflects the size of the property but the provision is a bit basic. Lovely comfy beds but no cupboards to store food in the kitchen. Cottage accommodates up to 10 but seating for 5-6 at most. Very clean and warm.

Excellent stay - we will be back!

The five of us stayed at the cottage for a Work Retreat. We are self employed and loved the cottage. It was very hot! Great space to work and relax in our own space too. The bedrooms were comfortable. Everything we needed! Great location for walks, pubs and remote to relax.

Lovely cottage

Stayed here for 2 nights as 5 couples because we had a wedding in the area to go to. The house was plenty big enough for the 10 of us. We were made to feel very welcome with a great welcome pack of essentials. The cottage is very homely and the beds are super comfortable. Shame we weren’t staying longer to spend more time exploring.

Lovely cottage

We had a great short break with multi-generational family members. Temple Guiting Cottage is deceptively large - roomy bedrooms, pretty decor and a small but sunny garden surrounded by trees. The silence was punctuated by birds in the day and owls at night - a great escape. Loved the Bramley bath products and the thoughtful welcome basket. Location wise you need a car to get supplies - there is the lovely working town of Winchcombe which is close by and more touristy Stow and Broadway.

The Long Wedding Weekend

One of my nieces was getting married at Sudeley Castle on the Saturday and I needed a large cottage to accommodate 3 family groups travelling from Manchester, London and Plymouth. Temple Guiting Cottage provided us 5 bedrooms and plenty of living space and ample parking. Unfortunately, we were not able to make use of all the facilities provided at the cottage, such as the lovely garden, since we arrived late on the Friday night and had to leave on the Sunday afternoon – some people had to go work on Monday! I would definitely recommend the cottage to anyone planning to stay for a while and explore that area of the Cotswolds.

Long weekend stay.

Lovely cottage. Very helpful housekeeper. Very well stocked; over and above what was expected. Only slight niggle was lack of hanging place for clothes in the main bedroom. Other bedrooms had hooks/clothes rails or even wardrobes. I appreciate there is not much room for a wardrobe but perhaps a row of hooks or pegs along the wall would work. Even a chair would be handy. Otherwise it was perfect.

Fantastic property

We loved our stay at this beautiful cottage. Easy check in, large parking area and beautiful gardens. The house was very clean and has everything you could need for a pleasant stay. All bedrooms are large and comfortable. My only point of note is that some child safety aspects could be improved. There are numerous windows without child locks on so they swing right out. Also there are open shelves in the kitchen storing crockery - we swiftly moved these so not a problem but just to note to future guests that you may need to baby proof a little on arrival. The window locks should definitely be addressed though.

a birthday party to remember.

stunning and charming house in a wonderful cotswolds location. Perfect for 5 couples and a baby as each couple has a comfortable bedroom. Ideal for a dog as enclosed. Garden is lovely but shaded at this time of year (mid October) making the lawn difficult to use as on the muddy side.Could do with a new bbq as the current one is antiquated at best. Could do with a easy to use vacuum cleaner to for us to use to keep it clean over a 4 day stay. Housekeeper very helpful who lives next door but allows full privacy. Would thoroughly recommend and my wife had the best birthday of her life when her family arrived for a surprise bbq.

Well presented cottage - but some misleading things in the description and photos

The cottage has been well modernised - and is overall high quality. Beds very comfortable. Kitchen design modern and spacious. Heating works well (we went in February) Here are some things you should know: 1) the photo of the house is misleading. Only one side of the building (the 3 story house spanning between the two chimneys) is the cottage. It is semi attached to the single story accommodation next door which is lived in by the housekeeper. Whilst the housekeeper is discrete (and lovely), this is not as private as we thought it was when we booked. The description does not explicitly say the cottage is detached, but we were certainly led to believe this, and it cleary does not make clear it is a semi-detached dwelling. 2) there are no photos showing what is in front of the house: this is a largegravel parking area shared by this cottage, the housekeeper's cottage next door, and a new house being renovated across the parking area. Again, this location is not as private as we believed it to be, and the lack of photos of this is clearly hiding the reality 3) Whilst the cottage can without doubt sleep 10 in comfortable bedrooms, there is only room for maximum 5 people to sit in the lounge where the fire and TV are. This is not made clear in the description and would be a big problem if your group is bigger than 5 and you wanted to sit together in the evening by the fire watching TV. When we went, the description said a sofa and three armchairs. On our visit there was a sofa (sits three max) and only two armchairs. The room is so snug that it would be difficult to fit a third armchair in, but even if they did, it would only seat 6 in total. If these things are made clear in the description then guests can rent with eyes open in knowledge of the facts. We enjoyed our stay are were not negatively impacted by these facts - but others may be more than we were. And we prefer renters to just be honest about their properties and allow guests to come and enjoy for what it is, rather than feel a little hoodwinked when we arrive. Hope that helps

Perfect cottage for a hot week

We had a great week despite the heatwave. Well equipped and comfortable. Beautiful garden too. The bathrooms could do with some storage space though, something that often seems forgotten.

A beautiful cottage in an idyllic setting which is perfect for a peaceful rural retreat. The cottage was clean, well equipped & very spacious with lovely bedrooms & enough bathrooms for a large family. The host had kindly left some basic foodstuffs. There was ample parking & a large garden for the boys to run around in.

A lovely cottage stay

We had a lovely stay here as a group of old Uni friends who haven’t got together for a long time. Great: lots of parking, big table in the kitchen (we spent most of our time here) lots of fridge space, very pretty, clean, 3 bathrooms and lovely comfy beds. Good walking. Lovely housekeeper Not perfect: lounge is a bit small vs number of bedrooms. The Pantry is closed so details could do with updating We would highly recommend and had a lovely stay here, enjoying time together both in the house and walking in the lovely countryside.

Picturesque village with lots of lovely walks on the doorstep

Period property in beautiful village. Well appointed accommodation upstairs but, unfortunately, downstairs was not conducive to hosting large parties, being only two smallish rooms. Not quite as expected. Housekeeper was responsive and very helpful.

Beautiful home with everything you could need. Clean, comfortable beds and peaceful location. We arrived quite late on our first day, so the key box was really handy. Looks as good as the photos! We did struggle to find it initially - could do with a bigger sign.

Lovely accommodation in good location. Would recommend for a family holiday.

Lovely cottage, more spacious than images show. 8 abc a baby had a family 3night February break. Bad storms each day, so we were thankful for a cottage that was warm & cosy. Comfy beds and lovely bed linen & towels. Cot & high chair in very good condition. Could do with more mugs & small plates as not enough for 8 people, if 1 lot in dishwasher.
