“Overall we were satisfied with the cottage and location to Burford High Street.”

The Royal Oak Pub and Highway Inn were excellent and definitely worth a visit. Burford is a great place to stay and stroll around with many interesting shops.

The Royal Oak Pub and Highway Inn were excellent and definitely worth a visit. Burford is a great place to stay and stroll around with many interesting shops. Our only criticism of the cottage is that the living room would benefit from updating with new furnishings.

- Mr Cordiviola, September 2021
Mrs Davies-kohler August 2021

“Was really small and old fashioned needs updating.”

Stairs a nightmare. Location good but parking a problem. Bathroom so tiny could hardly move in it.

- Mrs Davies-kohler, August 2021

Thank you for your feedback with regards to your stay at Tannery Cottage. We take all feedback seriously and note your comments. The cottage dates back to the 19th Century, so it is old throughout being a stone cottage of this age. The stairs are in keeping with the age of the cottage and are steep in places due to the age, but we do state this on the website. Also parking is on street as with most of Burford, but it's free parking everywhere. Again the bathroom is a standard size. We hope you still enjoyed the wonderful sites Burford and the surrounding areas have while you stayed with us. Property Owner
Mrs Symeou July 2021

“Lovely cottage but not ideal for anyone with mobility problems as stairs are difficult to climb.”

Facilities and cleanliness very good and good location to visit other popular locations.

- Mrs Symeou, July 2021

Thank you for your feedback! We're very happy to hear that you enjoyed the cottage and your positive comments will be passed on to our housekeeping team. Property Owner
Mr Jones June 2021

“We enjoyed our stay in Burford, parking is an issue if you want to be close to the cottage.”

It could be a lovely place to stay but it is in real need of updating and money spending on it. The lounge especially really uncomfortable suite which has covers on it which are in dire need of washing. We had to wash all the cutlery, plates, mugs and most certainly the glasses which looked like they’d not been washed in ages. We did take some our own utensils and pots and pans. But overall we enjoyed our stay in Burford. With the previous lock down the cottage could have been decorated and deep cleaned it would have been an ideal opportunity. Would we stay in the Tannery again (NO is the answer). The weather was superb all week so that was a real bonus.

- Mr Jones, June 2021

Thank you for your feedback with regards to your stay at Tannery Cottage. I'm sorry to hear that you experienced issues in terms of cleanliness during your time spent there and really appreciate you bringing this to our attention. The housekeeping team will be informed of your comments and will improve their work accordingly. Property Owner

“The Cottage was lovely, it had everything that we wanted for our stay, would recommend it.”

- Mr Lawrence, August 2020
Mr Coombs August 2020

“You very kindly let us know that we could check in early which was much appreciated.”

- Mr Coombs, August 2020
Mrs Glynn July 2020

“Lovely little cottage in the heart of Burford, not even 5 mins walk from the High St.”

It's very well equipped, garden is pleasant and enclosed and, extra important at this time with Covid 19, it was spotlessly clean! As the listing says the loft room is very small and the beds are under beams - my 8 year old twins were too big for this room so slept in the 2nd double room. Stairs are steep, I would not recommend for the elderly.

- Mrs Glynn, July 2020

Thank you for your feedback with regards to your recent stay at Tannery Cottage. It is in a lovely location to visit the Cotswolds. We hope to welcome you back again in the future. Property Owner
Ms Murphy February 2020

“Fabulous cosy cottage in the perfect location.”

Our children loved it and so did we. Comfy beds, excellent kitchen and well appointed. Lovely snug living room. We enjoyed the proximity to the high street, cafes and pubs and access to roads to travel around. Lovely stay - will be back!

- Ms Murphy, February 2020
Mrs Clarke August 2019

“Gorgeous cottage is wonderful location with very comfy beds.”

Unfortunately towards end of holiday we discovered oven did not work so this needs fixing. Despite emailing ahead of our visit after reading some bad reviews about cottage being dusty and in need of good clean we arrived to find very dusty - cobwebs all over beams and in shower and very dirty under beds etc - in need of thorough clean and airing. Also needs painting above sink in kitchen where it’s been plastered - generally needs refresh. Throws and sofas pretty old and stained. Despite this we loved location but cottage in dire need to deep clean and refresh.

- Mrs Clarke, August 2019

Thank you for your feedback on Tannery Cottage, many apologies that you did not find the cottage up to standard. We have taken measures to address the issues you have raised, to ensure future guests have an enjoyable stay. Property Owner
Mrs Tong June 2019

“Parking car was a nightmare so busy .”

Nice cottage and garden for our dog . But it states no dogs on furniture or upstairs which l wouldn't let my dog do anywhere but there was dog hair everywhere my husband was covered in it when he sat on sofa and bedroom carpet was also like this. But be fair to housekeeping the Hoover was awful.

- Mrs Tong, June 2019

The property

Tannery Cottage is an immensely cosy Cotswold cottage, set in a quiet location near to the centre of Burford.

Internally, the owners have created a very civilised country bolthole that absolutely oozes classic English charm, with original flagstone floors, the wonky beams and oak flooring, this is a 19th century gem of a holiday cottage.

Very romantic and full of 'olde england' warmth.

The modern, open plan kitchen / diner with its view to the garden is most welcoming, while the Living Room with its woodburner is perfectly snug - and all with underfloor heating!

The bedrooms upstairs are beautifully styled with top-quality furnishings and linen each with unique touches creating a truly authentic Cotswolds experience.

This cottage is perfect for a family, ideal of a couple or two couples and we think it is hard not to imagine yourself returning to this cute hideaway time and time again.

Utterly Delightful!! Please note this property has a Good House Keeping Bond of £100, this will be shadowed at the time of booking.

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.

Note: The stairs to the twin room are steep and therefore not suitable for the less mobile or very young, the stairs up to the first floor are also steep.
Note: This cottage is suited to 4 adults only.
Note: There are 3 bedrooms as the cottage is only suitable for four people. Customers wont have use of all 3 bedrooms, you can choose between either having two double beds, or one double and two singles
Please note this property has a Good House Keeping Bond of £100, this will be shadowed at the time of booking.
