  We had a fabulous time staying at Lock cottage.

  It is a charming ,characterful cosy cottage situated on a lock.The location is amazing just by the quays,shops cafes etc and at the side is a bridge over to woodlands and walks to the Priory.The cottage has a back garden which is a sun trap but it also has a front area ,where we watched the boats go by ! Two bathrooms and sitting rooms gave us plenty of space to spread out and relax in. As it is detached, we could enjoy ourselves without worrying about neighbours.The house is near the road so you will hear some traffic as it goes over the swing bridge but it is more of a low hum and didn't bother us plus the windows are double glazed.Finally,the owners left some chocolate biscuits and tea,so we could enjoy a cuppa on our arrival. Many Thanks.

  We loved the size,location and quirkiness of the house but felt it could do with some tlc.

  The seals on both of the showers need replacing. The downstairs shower wasn't clean and the door comes off the rails so we never used this one. There is obviously a problem with the pipe work in the upstairs shower as we had to continuously empty the trap (as we were told in the paperwork) but this didn't solve the problem as the shower tray kept filling up. Some of the pillows and one of the single quilts were very lumpy. These items are not expensive to replace but make a big difference to your comfort for a week. The Hoover was packed full so we weren't able to use it. The house is lovely and some small changes would make it very special.

  Overall we had a wonderful stay at Lock House and would certainly like to come again.

  The house was warm and comfortable and, while it was superficially clean, there were cobwebs and several areas, (skirting boards and pipework), would benefit from a deep clean which I am sure will happen before the main letting seasons begins. As we have a holiday cottage ourselves in Cornwall we do understand how hard it can be to maintain standards, but we felt that the range of mismatched crockery, cutlery and glassware let the property down. Our son commented that there were more reception rooms than there were Prosecco glasses! We bought 2 ice trays as a gift to the cottage as there were none and no -one wants a warm gin and tonic!

  Great location and the cottage was very clean and warm with lots of hot water.

  However the description did not really indicate that the lounges were small. 6 adults sitting in the largest of the lounges felt very cramped. Obviously owners are not able to do anything about the size of the rooms but this should have been mentioned in the right up. Photographs were rather misleading. Sofas had certainly seen better days along with the towels provided. Ventilation in the bathrooms was not really adequate. With 6 adults using showers there was a lot of condensation and it was too cold to leave windows open.

  The Lock House is very well positioned for a holiday that includes lots of heritage and history and loads of great shopping and places to eat.

  The house is right on the lock and the lock-keepers were very friendly and well-informed, the rear garden looks down over the river. Beds were comfortable and house had everything that we needed. Secure parking behind double gates also another great feature. So much to do and see in Gloucester Docks and the city itself that we didn't need the car much, but also in easy reach of many other places - took a trip to Berkeley Castle (often used as a TV/film set) one day and Forest of Dean with its railway on another.
