The Loft in Stow-on-the-Wold receives high praise for its cleanliness, comfort, and prime location. Guests appreciate the property's contemporary decor, cosy atmosphere, and thoughtful touches like milk and cookies. While some mention minor issues with facilities and access, the overall sentiment is overwhelmingly positive, with many keen to return.

Reviews consistently mention that The Loft is 'spotlessly clean' and 'amazingly clean', indicating a high standard of cleanliness that guests appreciate.

The property's central location is frequently highlighted as 'great' and 'superb', with easy access to the town and wider area. The only drawback mentioned is the lack of nearby parking.

Guests find The Loft comfortable, noting 'comfy beds' and a 'home-like' feel. The property is described as warm and welcoming, despite some comments about the stairs.

While the property is generally well-equipped, guests have reported issues with the toilet flush, door key, and a lack of oven gloves. These are minor but recurring points that suggest room for improvement in facilities and maintenance.

There are mentions of thoughtful extras like milk and cookies, but as these gifts are not consistently referenced across reviews, it cannot be guaranteed they are a standard offering for all guests.

The highest town in the Cotswolds, Stow-on-the-Wold, originally an Iron Age Fort, epitomises olde worlde England. This ancient market town has played host to many fairs since the 12th century and today holds a biannual Gypsy Horse Fair, craft fairs and monthly Farmers' market.The Stow Horse Fair is held twice a year, on the Thursday closest to 12th May and the Thursday closest to 24th October, this is a traditional fair for people to meet up and trade which dates back to 1476 when its Charter was granted; Stow is very busy for a day or two before and after each fair, and a number of shops, pubs and restaurants are closed. The vast market square boasts an ancient cross at one end and the village stocks at the other, surrounded by an elegant array of Cotswold stone townhouses, antique shops, tea rooms, traditional pubs, award-winning restaurants and its very own cricket museum. Many walks and cycle rides through the beautiful rolling countryside of the Cotswolds can be enjoyed from the centre of Stow, with the Macmillan Way, Heart of England Way, Gloucestershire and Monarch's Way all running close to the town. Bourton-on-the-Water, known as the 'Venice of the Cotswolds' as the River Windrush runs through the centre, lies in an Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty and is one of the most popular Cotswold villages. The Saxon market town of Moreton-in-Marsh and the quintessential English village of Broadway are all within easy reach and make a great day out. Cheltenham (20 miles away) is, architecturally, the most complete regency town in England. A spa town with an incredible range of shops, cinemas, theatres, restaurants and pubs, it is famous for its horse-racing festival in March, culminating in the Gold Cup steeplechase. At other times of year, it is host to literature, jazz, classical music, science and food and drink festivals. Oxford, the oldest university city in England and sometimes called 'The City of Dreaming Spires’ has an abundance of prestigious attractions, including the 38 colleges of the university (half of which date back before 1600), the oldest university teaching room, the Bodleian Library, Ashmolean and Pitt Rivers Museums, and Botanic Gardens. Stratford-upon-Avon, Bath, Worcester and the waterfront city of Gloucester are also within easy reach, making Stow-on-the-Wold an ideal base.

    We’re three ladies from mid 50’s to early 60’s and appreciate a good standard of accommodation. The Loft is just that… contemporary, spotlessly clean with comfy beds, fluffy towels and lovely little extras such as milk, cookies and a little cleaning pack. Oh… and a fan which came in handy as the weather was very hot when we we visiting! We will definitely be back again!
