Great stay at The Glen cottage.

It was clean spacious and fully equiped with all we needed. It is a lovely spot in Blockley and great bonus was the off street parking. The only improvement would be an earlier check in time rather than 5.00pm.

Beautiful property in a charming town

We stayed for two nights at The Glen and had the most wonderful time - the house itself is beautiful, including the garden. The kitchen is well equipped with any cooking utensils one would need. The private parking is also ideal. Blockley is such a charming place, we'll definitely be back.

A great stay with family

Beautiful and clean cottage in Blockley, very impressed with the garden and the lovely home. Would come back again with friends in the summer, but was also very cosy and warm for the start of the Autumn months. Kitchen had all the utensils we needed to cook on all three nights we stayed. Beds very comfortable and lovely bathrooms. Thank you for a lovely stay

Lovely stay in beautiful accommodation

Very well equipped and spacious accommodation - it comfortably accommodated us all - 6 adults. Everything you could possibly need was in the kitchen, and in fact in the whole house. The weather was good so we were able to sit out in the lovely garden too. Beautiful village location with easy access to the surrounding countryside and attractions. Definitely would recommend The Glen

We had fantastic weather for our 50th birthday weekend and spent a lovely celebratory day in the garden. The bathroom on every level made it a super comfortable stay. The kitchen was a delight and great to cook in. Quiet, picturesque and private.

Wonderful stay at The Glen. Facilities were excellent. Comfy beds, well equipped kitchen and very spacious. Beautiful gardens. A good location for touring the Cotswold. There are stairs to consider going down to living room and up to attic bedroom. Overall, a very comfortable and happy time at The Glen. Thank you to the owners for sharing their wonderful home.

Beautiful house in superb location

We had a fantastic weekend in the Glen, such a well-equipped kitchen and everything we could need. We all loved the place with its nooks and crannies and old beams, felt right at home and didn't want to leave. The place was immaculately clean. We had one problem with a broken loo seat, phoned the number and spoke to Chris who was round with a new one immediately. Could not fault it at all. We hope to be back.

Beautiful home

This was a great find and perfect place to stay for a weekend away. This home is super comfortable and well equipment for a larger group of guests. Ideal for both adults and children. The garden was stunning and the only downside for us was we had terrific rain all weekend, which prevented us using it to its full advantage. The house was well located in a beautiful Cotswolds village, easily in reach/walk of a hotel/restaurant , pub and cafe/restaurant. The walks round here are great and straight into the beautiful countryside. I’m sure we will be back again soon enough.

Fantastic

I have just had the best holiday ever, The Glen is beautiful, so clean, a welcome pack was left for us, we couldn’t stop saying wow, all rooms were en-suite which was perfect for us, it was so quiet and peaceful in the large garden, there were deck chairs and a bbq in the shed, the kitchen wanted for nothing brilliant large fridge and a freezer, great cooker and so many pots and pans, the beds were so comfy I took photos so I could buyone for home, the quaintness was what we like in a cottage 100% satisfied with every thing, I can highly recommend it and would go again, the walks round the village were a bonus terrific x
