  This was an exceptional property.

  Superbly well equipped with quality fixtures and fittings, plenty of kitchen utensils, pots, pans, etc, Comfortable beds and nice bed linen. The play room, with a selection of toys, books and games was a brilliant touch. The location was perfect for us; in the middle of Stow with easy walking (and running) from the doorstep, a short walk to a playpark for the little one, and plenty of pubs/restaurants if you fancy an evening out. The two-car barn for parking was great and if you have three cars, there are plenty of visitors spaces to the close which were hardly used during our stay. The neighbours are friendly and the close is so peaceful and quiet; we hope our grandsons didnt make too much noise! Stow is also well located to visit loads of places around and we would highly recommend this place... Also excellent support from Manor Cottages when at first we didnt think we had a microwave, only to find one of the 2 eye-level ovens was a clever, all-in-one oven - this was essential for heating baby milk, etc., The only slightly negative thing about the property were a lack of hooks in the bathroom for hanging wash-kits, and the bedroom door that rattled when the window was open (but easily fixed with a folded bit of newspaper). An excellent week's holiday with the family...

  The house was beautifully clean and nicely furnished.

  Great location too,within walking distance to the town centre. A few things would help make the house a 4 star rental. The second double bed is not at all comfortable, it felt very cheap and at only 4ft6ins wide, not really comfortable for two average sized adults IMO. Also the wooden headboard was not fixed to the wall or bed so it kept rattling. We had to place a towel on it to stop the noise. In the master bed there were no black out blinds only curtains that let lots of light in at dawn, about 4.30am making it impossible to sleep without eye masks. We found that the razor/toothbrush chargers in the bathroom and ensuite would not recharge anything. We had to buy toothbrushes as we couldn’t use our electric ones. The cutlery in the kitchen was of very, very low quality and not enough of it if renting to a party of 6. There are cutlery sets in the shops for less than £10 which make the ones supplied in the cottage laughable. So, our conclusion. Great cottage but needs rethinking on the points we have mentioned which wouldn’t cost much to put right but would really help make the place the quality rental it could be as it’s not cheap to stay there.

  Very clean and nicely decorated.

  All appliances are high-end and practically new. Maintenance was very responsive as well. Close to downtown - just a very short walk. Very quiet and calm. Private. Spacious. Even has a little play room for kids. Can be very hot if the weather is over 75 degrees F outside, but there are several fans. Would be nice if all of them were strong, oscillating fans. There is only 1 fan that works really well. But the others are sufficient. Black-out shades in the bedrooms were very nice, as it gets really sunny. Owner needs to add a black-out shade in the 3rd bedroom, but the others had them. Bring lots of UK plug adapters for your electronics (if from elsewhere). If you want to stay in Stow-on-the-Wold, I wouldn't hesitate to book this one. It's not classically picturesque on the outside, but the inside amenities give you a lot more than some other listings that have flowers out front. You can walk around the corner to see all the other beautiful exterior facades without having to stay inside one that would compromise space and comfort. We enjoyed our stay.

  Wood Stanway House is absolutely beautiful.

  We all really enjoyed our stay and the location of this property to explore the Cotswolds. The garden was a beautiful spot to relax and unwind in the sunshine after a day of exploring. We all went for local runs/walks and adored the beautiful surrounding area. Every single room was decorated beautifully, and we are envious of your bathrooms as every single one was stunning! The kitchen was so well equipped and everything was easy to find and use and the welcome pack was so generous, thank you. We all are from across the UK and we all want to return to this beautiful property with family. Only minor suggestions (this is just minor suggestion and wouldn't put us off re booking this beautiful property) We all wanted to sit together in the evening and ended up having to sit around the dining room table till bedtime or split up into the living room/snug, which isn't the end of the world, but another sofa in the living room would have meant that we could have all relaxed together. Thank you so much for our amazing stay!

  We thoroughly enjoyed our stay at Beau’s House!

  The interior is gorgeous. Extremely clean, modern and very homely. The amenities are also great - we particularly loved the Nespresso machine! Helen left us a cake & some milk for when we arrived which was a lovely touch. The location is a perfectly central hub to visit all of the gorgeous Cotswold villages. Bourton-on-the-Water (which was our favourite of the villages) is just over 5 minutes away by car. Stow-on-the-Wold is a similar distance away which is also a beautiful village. Beau’s House is on a new build estate which we loved walking round in the evenings. It’s very quiet & peaceful. There are lots of children’s play areas dotted around and so much greenery too. There is a Co-op opposite the house - very convenient! The garden is south-facing & enclosed making it a nice space for all including our toddlers & dogs. There is also parking for 2 cars and an electric charging point. We will definitely be staying here again when we next visit the Cotswolds!
