“A beautiful studio set in idyllic surroundings.”

Everything in the studio is high quality and the owners were welcoming and attentive. The hot weather was the icing on the cake. A lovely area to explore.

“Our stay at the Cidar Press Apartment was without doubt the very best, most comfortable and peaceful you could possibly ask.”

The view were superb right beside the river windrush, with swans and ducks floating passed as squirrels play in the branches of trees outside the window. The Apartment is perfect, clean fresh with immaculate furniture, kitchen and bathroom fittings. The hosts are friendly going out of their way to make the stay perfect. There are lots of eating places around a lot recommended by Barry. We recommend the Royal Oak and the Golden Pheasant. (This is a safe environment given the present covid crisis, both the apartment and the eating places, following strict government guidelines ) Thank you to everyone who helped to make our stay enjoyable.

- Mrs Welton, August 2020

“Cider Press is a very comfortable and cosy property about ten minutes walk to the middle of High Street, Burford.”

An old Mill building built and renovated over the River Windrush. Very pleasant spot with great hosts.

- Mr Chandler, August 2020
“Fantastic, will definitely return.”

Beautiful apartment, lovely surroundings and the owners were very helpful.

- Mrs Fox, August 2020
“The Cider Press provided us with the idyllic location to enjoy a few days away from home, our first trip since lockdown, in a Covid safe environment.”

Our hosts, Barry and Mandy went the extra mile to ensure our holiday was exactly what it should have. A stress free break in beautiful surroundings. We will definitely be returning at some point in the future. Thanks, Erick and Denise.

“Barry was very accommodating and warm.”

The river running under the property was a wonderful addition- especially watching the swans and ducks just outside the window! We will definitely come back!

- Ms Treleaven, July 2020
“Loved the apartment, beautifully warm and ideally situated in the Cotswolds for exploring lots of places.”

Lots of lovely eating places close by and upmarket shops to browse in.

- Mrs Patterson, February 2020

Many thanks for taking the time to provide us with feedback from your stay at Cider press. We are very pleased to hear that you enjoyed your stay and hope to welcome you back again in the near future. Owner relations
“Absolutely Charming”

A lovely, cosy open-plan accommodation (like a really nice hotel suite) with delightful views. How lovely is it to wake up to a swan family every morning courtesy of the hosts feeding from the Windrush River? (Think I've called that right, but hey-ho, whatever it's called, just look out when you wake up and enjoy!) We weren't sure if the picture of the water mill provided from the website was actually under the accommodation and would be noisy (a soothing noise nevertheless!) but we couldn't hear a thing as we weren't directly above. Bed is lovely, host lovely, place lovely! Great choice of eateries in the village and if you get the opportunity, do visit and support Cotswolds Wildlife Park and Gardens. I guess the best recommendation is my intention to return!

- Therese_Owen, February 2020
“Lovely host, very comfy bed, charming English accommodation (don't be put off with the bedroom and lounge in one room, if you view it as an hotel suite you'll love it,) .”

Clean and very quiet (you don't hear the water mill as shown in the online brochure), lots of lovely eateries nearby if you don't fancy cooking in the kitchen. Just wallow in the river view from the lounge as swans and ducks come to feed courtesy of the hosts. I suppose the best reference is that a return visit will be forthcoming!

- Mrs Owen, January 2020

Thank you for your lovely comments and look forward to your return visit! Owner relations
“We had a lovely time at the Cider Press.”

The hosts were lovely and happy to show us around. Unfortunately, the pots in the cupboard not not been cleaned very well and had crusty food suck on them - more the fault of the people before I would think, but was still a bit unpleasant having to wash them before use. A washing up bowl would have also been useful. Everything else was lovely and the location was perfect for walking into the village. It was a shame there was only parking available on the road, but we were assured that this would be fine and it was.

- Miss Y, December 2019

Thank you very much for you comments, we are very sorry you found dirty pots and have advised the housekeepers to put checks in place. We are glad you enjoyed your stay and the surrounding villages. Owner relations
“We had a really lovely time staying at The Cider Press.”

Barry was very welcoming, the apartment was clean, warm and homely. A perfect weekend getaway!

- Ms Hickman, October 2019
“Good location for discovering the beautiful Cotswolds area, Burford in particular a lovely centre.”

Comfy bed and great shower with plenty of hot water and nice toiletries. Unfortunately we hit on a wet week so perhaps a downside of The Cider Press is that your car parking is not immediate to the flat. A nice touch were the fruit and flowers on arrival which we appreciated. Overall an enjoyable stay.

- Mrs Hutchinson, October 2019
“Having used Sykes Holidays several times now we feel confident that the accommodation will always meet our expectations and that is a nice and reassuring feeling.”

- Mr Rodgers, August 2019
“We thought the outside sitting area was in the garden, not in the front yard.”

We also thought we could sit out on the balcony. Provision of a washing up bowl, non-slip mat in shower and microwaveable bowls would have been nice. Overall a beautiful cottage in a lovely part of the country.

- Mr Kelloway, June 2019
“The Holiday cottage was first class, with a friendly helpful owner in idyllic surroundings”

- Mr Forde, May 2019
“Beautuful apartment and location but it would have been nice if we had access to the garden to sit and relax with a glass of wine and wach the wild life.”

- Mrs Pyburn, May 2019
“Excellent location- easy access to High Street for shops and dining.”

Beautiful setting in the idyllic town of Burford. Also close to great hiking. Our host Barry was very helpful with recommendations for a restaurant and pub nearby.

- Mr Taylor, April 2019
“All was fine.”

Clear instructions, good contact from the owners and everything as expected. Even the weather was good!

- Mr Hutton, April 2019
“Great location, lovely cottage”

The apartment is tastefully decorated and feels very contemporary. Great space for 2 and spotlessly clean. Lovely touch of fresh fruit and flowers on arrival. Burford is a great base for discovering the cotswolds, with several local pubs within walking distance. Would certainly stay again

- chillchops, March 2019
“This is a lovely holiday apartment in a traditional Cotswold setting.”

Spotlessly clean, it felt newly refurbished and high quality e.g very comfy bed, amazing shower, nice art. We didn't have neighbours above us so it was quiet. There were lots of things to do nearby with our toddler, the crocodile park is great for a rainy day, the wildlife park is amazing. Burford offers all you need for local eateries, shops and Cotswold charm. We'd highly recommend this place.

- Mrs Dalziel, February 2019
“We had a lovey time in January 2019 also it snowed and it made it special the pubs and restaurants were great.”

“Â Great location, friendly welcome, comfy bed, good shower, warmth when needed.”

Not crucial and don't want to nitpick, but not keen on the chairs! Also think I'd fix the squeaky floorboards upstairs - should be easily done. Otherwise, rather expensive for a studio flat for 5 nights in March, but Cotswolds not a cheap area, is it?!

About the location

Burford

Burford is possibly one of, if not THE most famous of the Cotswolds' locations. With its medieval bridge, old stone houses and attractive Tudor and Georgian frontages, Burford is justifiably one of the most picturesque towns in England. Often referred to as the 'Gateway to the Cotswolds', the town was originally a fortified Anglo-Saxon ford which later grew to be an important regional crossroads and wealthy wool town. Located mid way between Oxford and Cheltenham (25 mins each away) it is a little haven of history and beauty that many come to fall in love with when they visit.

The 16th century Tolsey building, once the meeting place for medieval merchants, now houses The Tolsey Museum, a delightful local museum illustrating the town's social and industrial past. The church is stunning, a real gem architecturally with many interesting memorials charting some of Burford's great families. There is also the signature, on the baptisimal font, of Antony Sedley, one of the Levellers besieged in the church in 1649 - three of the ringleaders were executed by Oliver Cromwell's men in the churchyard. History awaits!

With little changing over the centuries, Burford is now very popular with visitors, both for its beauty and history but also for its shopping and antiques, and for the wide variety of places to eat, with restaurants, pubs and teashops. It is an ideal base for visiting The Cotswolds area as it is within easy driving distance of popular attractions such as Blenheim Palace, Sudley Castle, Warwick Castle and several National Trust Houses and Gardens. Bourton on the Water, Bibury, Cirencester and Stow on the Wold are all with 25 minutes from the property.

This is a first floor apartment.
