“Would stay at the cottage again location great some good NationalTrust property near by”

- Mr Jenkins, October 2020
Mrs Morris October 2020

“The check in times are too late it ruins the 1st day of your holiday !”

!! A 2pm check is is the right time !!

- Mrs Morris, October 2020

Thank you for your comment. It is vital the cottage is cleaned whilst strictly adhering to Covid 19 guidelines, this takes longer than usual and therefore we have had to adjust the check-in time accordingly from 4pm to 6pm We have a large amount of properties to get ready and will not compromise on standards during this very difficult time.

“Fridge inadequate.”

Sofas uncomfortable.

- Mr Mortimer, September 2020

Thank you for your feedback regarding your stay at Wadham Cottage. We take all feedback seriously, but the pictures and website does show the size of the fridge and with regards to the sofa, it's personal preference like beds. Nether the less we hope you enjoyed the stay and area. Owner relations
Miss Billings September 2020

“Absolutely fantastic from start to finish.”

The listing was completely accurate, the booking process as easy as can be and the cottage wonderful. We had a most fabulous week and would go back in a heartbeat. The location was so central and yet so peaceful, the cottage was so wonderfully equipped and presented and was spotless. We really can’t fault a thing!

- Miss Billings, September 2020

Thank you for your feedback regarding your stay at Wadham Cottage. We always love to hear how much our guests have enjoyed staying and it's a lovely location. We hope to welcome you back again in the future. Owner relations
Ms Skidmore July 2020

“The shared garden was a real benefit and we all had a lovely week, including the children.”

The cottage was very comfortable and the beds were especially so. My only negative point is not the fault of the cottage - but due to the proximity of the clock tower, which was very nearby and which chimed every 15 minutes 24/7, I found it impossible to sleep on the first night. It is a lovely sound, but for me it was the repetitive and persistent nature of it which was troublesome during the night. After I got hold of some earplugs, that solved the problem for the rest of the week! I would quite like to have known this in advance so that I could have got some earplugs before I arrived. That said, noone else in the family seemed to mind!

- Ms Skidmore, July 2020

Thank you for your feedback with regards to Wadham Cottage. It's lovely to hear that you enjoyed your stay, it's a great location to explore the Cotswolds. We hope to welcome you again in the future. Owner relations

“Great Place”

What a charming place to stay,we loved all the quirkiness of it and the shared patio and garden was a great place for socialising with the neighbours,excellent location being just about in the centre,only negative point would be no shower but that didn't spoil it one bit,will definitely be using it again.

Ms Dakin

“We had a lovely relaxing time.”

The property was ideally situated and it was great that they allowed pets. I would have preferred a property with its own enclosed garden so that I could let out the dogs into the garden and not worry about them.

- Ms Dakin,
Mary and Steve

“Had a lovely 2 week stay here.”

The cottage is lovely & cosy and we have no complaints. The kitchen is well stocked and we love the layout. Such a beautiful location and a comfy cottage! All in all, it's been lovely and a pleasure to stay here, so close to all the shops and the river so that we could go for lovely evening strolls and feed the ducks. We hope to be back soon.

“We have thoroughly enjoyed our 3 nights here at Wadham.”

We on an extended trip from Australia so it was great to experience an English cottage and have a home away from home! The new couches are really comfortable and the wifi was terrific for getting in touch with home and making further travel plans! We had fun exploring the local villages, Stratford and walking to and from The Slaughters.

- Alisa and Peter,
Adrian & Wendy

“A relaxing week at Wadham Cottage.”

We only live an hour away in Warwickshire but could be in anotehr time zone here! Despite lots of rain, we enjoyed walks around the area. Cross the bridge past the motor museum and a few hundred yards later you are on the Windrush Way. This lovely walk follows the river behind Bourton and back in a short loop to the cottage on for miles following the river upstream.

- Adrian & Wendy,
Mr & Mrs McGill

“Enjoyed a lovely week here, despite the weather!”

Love this area, this is our 7th visit to the Cotswolds, well worth the long drive from Scotland. We have enjoyed this very comfortable and very well equipped cottage, so nice to be able to wonder in and around the village.

- Mr & Mrs McGill,
Valerie and Martin.

“We have enjoyed a few days visiting some lovely Cotswolds villages - Broadway, Stow, Chipping Campden and Burford.”

Thank you to the caretaker for a spotless cottage

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.

Note: Limited Mobile coverage, although signal available outside. There is a landline in the cottage for local calls (honesty box)
Note: Please note that there is an outhouse to the rear of the cottage which contains the washing machine and tumble drier.
