Cottage in ideal location

Christmas Cottage is in a great location and we enjoyed our stay, this is our second visit. It’s safe and Tetbury is a lovely village to be in. The downside is that the outside space was disappointing sadly, with paint peeling off all the garden furniture and whilst of course given the dry weather it’s understandable that plants would suffer, much of the area was just bare soil and wasn’t a place to sit and enjoy at all

Beautiful Cottage -excellent customer service

This is a beautiful cottage in an excellent location good for both town and country walks. TH house was very well appointed and we had a very thoughtful welcome pack which included mince pies. We had a slight issue with access to documents prior to the stay but this was sorted out almost immediately with the excellent customer service would highly recommend.

Christmas Cottage Tetbury

Good stay overall in the is lovely property, centrally located in Tetbury. Property comfort, facilities and condition were all excellent. The only disappointment was cleanliness, which was not up to the expected standard of a high end rental like this, especially in the kitchen and bathroom.

A lovely cottage

We stayed here for two nights at the end of October. It’s a lovely cottage and a great location. Although, I wouldn’t recommend it if you have mobility challenges (it’s at the bottom of quite a steep hill). It was clean, the furnishings were comfortable and we found everything we needed in the kitchen. We were even left some welcome gifts, which was a lovely touch. Thank you ☺️

This is a comfortable clean property. Parking is a bit of an issue. There was no electricity on except downstairs. Although someone came to address the problem several hours after we reported it a quicker communication to say the problem would be addressed would have reduced stress. Why both people we called didn't answer their phones really isn't good enough. It would have been worse if we could not get into the house.

Great cottage

Lovely cottage in a great location, only downside was the oven was not very clean at all when we arrived which meant we could not fully use it.

Short break in Tetbury

The cottage is situated in a v convenient central location although parking on the steep hill was difficult at times! It was very cosy, particularly the lounge. Some of the kitchen appliances could do with a bit of TLC - eg the bottom oven door came adrift on first use . The crockery would be nicer if there were enough plates and glasses to match each other! The beds were comfortable and the bathroom was nice with a bath and over bath shower. The instructions left in the cottage need updating - they gave 2 different addresses for the property and inaccurate details on how to use the tv! Despite these minor issues - except perhaps the oven - it’s a lovely cottage which could just be improved with a few attentions to detail!

Stylish superbly appointed pretty Cottage in wonderful Cotswolds town

Thoroughly enjoyed our time in Tetbury, made even better by our stay in this beautiful and well appointed Cottage - really feels like the Owner cares and ensures everything is there to make the stay comfortable and enjoyable, with a lot of thought having gone in to it,. Beautiful fabrics, well decorated and very warm (it was a misty chilly December!), with bedding, soft towels, well equipped Kitchen, comfortable Sitting Room (complete with some logs for the woodburner). It is on street parking but we always found a space outside, and it didnt seem that busy in the road (it is no through ) and free long stay public car park anyway a few mins walk. Would stay again in an instant and am sure we will return in 2023.... Thank you for letting us stay here

Cottage in Tetebuy, Cotswolds

Christmas cottage is a beautiful looking cottage within walking distance to all of the amenities and walks, Tetbury trail being one which is worth doing. We were lucky to get parked right out side of the cottage. Some areas of the cottage would benefit a little updating. The lounge and bedrooms were nicely furnished. The master having a lovely super king bed. Both bedrooms had lovely bed linen and comfy mattresses. Hair dryer was old but worked ok. What let it down for us was despite stating there would be logs and kindling, there wasn’t. The log burner hadn’t been cleaned out. Kindling arrived very late into the evening on the first night with a knock at the door and two bags left on the door step. No logs. Lacking a few basic items including only half a loo roll etc in the bathroom or a welcome pack with milk. We took both our dogs with us but to be honest I don’t think the cottage was suitable for them. As there was only one front entrance which was carpeted. We do always wash and clean our dogs especially if it has been wet and muddy. The garden was terraced with quite steep steps and borders which in summer would look beautiful but in winter blended in with the patio. We took the dogs out to a green area and walk if they needed to go out for a toilet

Good comfortable stay

On a steep slope so be mindful if staying in icy weather conditions or have mobility difficulties.small things like, kettle needed descaling and main oven didn’t work. The garden could have done with weeding and tidying at the front . Window boxes were empty and steps to front door had weeds. Overall, very cosy cottage. Good stock of games, books and dvds. Excellent wifi and the area of tetbury was pretty and I would definitely stay again
