Mrs Lowndes
October 2020

“The recycling list on the fridge was useful so we could sort correctly but, no instructions about what to put out for collection and where it would be collected from.”

We found an out of date recycling calendar which was garden waste for the week we were there so there wasn't a need to do anything as that bin was empty.

We found an out of date recycling calendar which was garden waste for the week we were there so there wasn't a need to do anything as that bin was empty. We enjoyed the space the house gave us and even managed breakfast outside a few times and it would be nice to be able to bbq. Overall Kimkeri had a lovely atmosphere and great location to make for a relaxing break !

- Mrs Lowndes, October 2020

Thank you for your feedback. We apologise the incorrect recycling calendar, we are in the process of up dating these for all our properties. BBQ availability varies for each property, however if it does not mention a bbq please check with us as many properties allow you to bring your own or use disposals ones, as long as they do not damage the garden and are disposed off correctly. We are glad to hear you had a relaxing break and had the weather to use the garden. Owner relations

“Great location and amazing house.”

More garden furniture and bbq would be great. Very easy check in and lovely to have some biscuits and milk when we arrived.

- Mrs Durrant, July 2020

Thank you for your feedback with regards to Kimkeri. We will pass on your comments about more garden furniture to the owner and hope to welcome you back again in the future. Owner relations

Mrs Ferrari January 2020

“Yes. We loved this property and would love to book it again if 2 problems were sorted out.”

(1) There is need for a proper shower in the main first floor bathroom. I know it has been mentioned in other reviews but it really is not on that all Sykes guests at Kimkeri have to trudge up to the second floor of this property to use the shower in the master bedroom. How difficult can it be to put in a second shower? (2) There is nowhere to unpack in both the second and third bedrooms. There is plenty of room in both to put a good sized chest of drawers so again why has this not been done following previous complaints/suggestions? No one wants to keep their pants and socks on the floor! My mum is 90 and used the double bedroom on the first floor. Not only did she have nowhere to unpack but she had to ask me to bring a chair up to her room and a small table so that she had a surface to put her toiletries etc. Proper bedside drawers are required here for 'bits and bobs' not little coffee tables. Apart from these issues the Kimkeri was perfect for our 4 generation family. Please let me know when the two problems have been sorted so that I can rebook. In the meantime we will be looking at other properties in the Cotswolds.

- Mrs Ferrari, January 2020

Thank you for your feedback, we appreciate your comments and have passed them on to the owner. We hope to welcome you back soon. Owner relations

“Good spacious family house”

Bourton on the Water is a lovely area to stay in - lots of activities for children locally and plenty to keep adults occupied too. The house is centrally located with parking. Very spacious inside, including a snug/ playroom (with toys). Well equipped... one very minor quibble - it would be good to have some more light in the kitchen diner/ dayroom. Beds very comfortable. Stylish, slightly quirky property with an interesting history. Would recommend - this is our third time of staying.

“This is typical English country cottage, roses and lavenders are on blossom when we arrived, the wood cottage gives you a feeling of home, we are six people,two families, had a wonderful sweet time here.”

The only regret is the dryer, it didn't work, so we have to bring our wet clothes to Oxford, but a lot of fun!\ Anne, July 2016

“It was clean, bright, well equipped, had a lovely yard and was close to the centre of the village”

“This was our first family holiday, the house was great and a perfect size.”

Ideal garden for the dog too. We loved that it was within walking distance of so many places and other villages. Thank you for the walking information provided.

“It was just what we needed.”

It was totally appropriate for our 18month kid and us grown ups. The cottage felt like a home and that added to the relaxed atmosphere.

- Mr and Mrs N,
Mrs D

“The Cottage was of good standard.”

If I had one complaint it was that we couldn't put our refuse in the black bins when we left as they were absolutely full when we arrived (because they only get emptied once a fortnight) which is not enough especially in the hot weather, they need more wheely bins at the Cottage.\ \ \ (MC comment - WE HAVE SPOKEN TO THE COUNCIL WHO SEEMED TO NOT BE TAKEN THE RUBBISH AWAY. THIS IS UNDER CONTROL.)

“The accomodation was very spacious and well appointed.”

Garden large and very private.

“Kimkeri was a restful, bright lovely place to stay with my family.”

It was clean and the kitchen was very pleasant and workable. The garden is serene and I wish we had booked to stay longer.â€ \ Therese. August 2016

“This home is exactly as shown and described, if not better.”

We fell in love with the place when we arrived. The sunny dining and living areas were great, and it was easy to let the children play in the enclosed yard, watching them through the windows. There was plenty of room to spread out for adults and children. The home has all the amenities you would need to stay and make yourself at home, though the dryer seems to possibly be out for repair. The location of the home is just steps away from the main area in town, with shops and restaurants just minutes away. Everything in the house seemed to be nicely maintained and the host has a very helpful welcome book with information about the home, area, and recommendations for restaurants and attractions. We were sad to leave.â€ \ Kari, via airbnb, October 2016

The property

Kimkeri!

Bang in the heart of Bourton on the Water is this handsome Edwardian house, with a large garden, bright rooms and space galore for couples and families.

It's a real home-from-home with lashings of space to spread out toys for the children and an enclosed garden to the rear for the children to play, the adults to enjoy a sundowner or the pooch to stretch their legs.

The house has a contemporary feel with colours to give it a lift and large windows all round which let the light flood in.

Around the corner are the many delights (and cream teas!) of Bourton, with its river meandering through the village and the many little bridges which criss-cross.

Stow on the Wold is about 8 mins in the car, Burford about 12 mins, so you're right in the middle of the Cotswolds.

Fancy a special treat: Daylesford Organic Farm shop is about 20 mins drive away.

A real gem for Bourton on the Water.

About the location

BOURTON-ON-THE-WATER

Stow-on-the-Wold 4 miles; Moreton-in-Marsh 8 miles; Chipping Norton 13 miles; Cheltenham 15.5 miles.

Located in the Cotswold Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty, the historic village of Bourton-on-the-Water dates back to Neolithic times with over 100 buildings being Grade II listed or higher. The picturesque high street nestles alongside the River Windrush over which several low stone bridges span, which is why Bourton-on-the-Water is known as the Venice in the Cotswolds. Tradition states that an annual football match is played in the summer, in the River Windrush with the banks lined with spectators, with the aim to score as many goals as possible and get as wet as possible! The village has an eclectic range of visitor attractions, including The Model Village, Cotswold Motor Museum, Birdland Park and Gardens as well as a Dragonfly Maze, monthly farmers’ market as well as many tea rooms, an artisan bakery, antiques and craft markets, traditional sweet shop, cycle hire and its very own perfumery. Nearby, Stow-on-the-Wold, originally an Iron Age Fort, epitomises traditional 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 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, antiques shops, tea rooms, traditional pubs, award-winning restaurants and its very own cricket museum. Also take a visit to the medieval town of Burford for a great day out. The Saxon market town of Moreton-in-Marsh and the quintessential English village of Broadway are both within easy reach and make a great day out. The spa town of Cheltenham is, architecturally, the most complete Regency town in England 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. 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 all within easy reach.

Please note the only shower is in the ensuite on the second floor.

Please note this property has a good house keeping bond of £100, this is shadowed automatically when the booking is made.
