“We had a great stay at the gorgeous home however there were some things that made it not perfect.”

Communication was awful. We messaged a couple of times about things and it took days to reply. I’m still waiting on a reply about the last thing. I run an Airbnb and we reply straight away as it may be an emergency! There were no bin bags or extra toilet rolls so be aware you will need to take those with you which wasn’t suggested.

Communication was awful. We messaged a couple of times about things and it took days to reply. I’m still waiting on a reply about the last thing. I run an Airbnb and we reply straight away as it may be an emergency! There were no bin bags or extra toilet rolls so be aware you will need to take those with you which wasn’t suggested. The house itself is gorgeous and very clean. The garden is beautiful too! The dining room furniture needs replacing as three chairs were broken. Also in the main upstairs bedroom there was no remote to turn the tv on. We searched high and low! For the price we paid to stay here it’s these little things that make a difference. We managed to overlook and have a lovely stay anyway.

“The property is in need of general repair inside.”

It felt like it was full of unwanted furniture and objects. The table wasn’t big enough for 10 and the chairs were all broken such a shame the inside doesn’t match the outside. Unclear instructions also.

- Jayne, February 2022

Thank you for providing us with your feedback. We are sorry to hear that your stay at Roydon House was not as enjoyable as we would have hope. We have taken onboard your feedback and checked the reported issues over our change over. As the property has been newly renovated less than a year ago, there are no repairs needed at this time. We are sorry to hear that you had trouble fitting around the dining room table, but please be assured that it is suited for 10, as the property description reads. The chairs surrounding this table are also not broken – as found when an investigation was carried out. They are simply different to coincide with the theme of the property. We send out detailed instructions on the appliances before your stay, but if you require further assistance, please note that we have a 24/7 line available for anything you need during your stay.

“We had an amazing stay.”

Everything you need is provided at Roydon House. Its perfect for adults and children. It’s a 10 minute walk away from the beautiful chipping campden with a childrens playground half way along the walk. We’re already looking at when we can come back again. Thank you so much.

“Roydon House is a very comfortable and roomy house for an extended family of 10.”

It was well equipped (no vegetable peeler though!) and the beds were very comfortable. The two top bedrooms and shower room are definitely only suitable for children. It is set in a lovely position with fields to the back and one side and a few doors from the local pub serving good pub grub. We could walk easily into Chipping Campden where there are loads of places to eat and lots of independent shops. Great walks all around on the many footpaths. Only things missing I feel were some more comfortable garden furniture and possibly some outdoor games for children as this is definitely a family house. Our grandchildren definitely enjoyed having a second sitting room with a tv and Xbox!! All in all a lovely house which we enjoyed staying in. Lesley Jones

The property

Located on the outskirts of Chipping Campden Campden, Roydon House is an exquisite property that welcomes you with a warm but modern aesthetic.

Friends and family looking for a retreat to the Cotswolds are in for a real treat with this holiday home.

Upon entering the property, you will find a decently sized hallway that leads you to several different rooms on the ground floor.

To your left you will find the first lounge area which is the perfect space for relaxation and the chance to wind down after a long day of exploring the area.

Furnished to allow complete relaxation - it's the perfect place to wind own, either catching up with the latest offerings on the Smart TV, or curling up with a good book in front of the log-burner on a chilly Autumn evening.

Following through to the second lounge area, you will find yourself upon a cozy, modest space that is perfect for couples to relax with the double sofa, and a second smart tv, or simply enjoys the views out over the rear, enclosed garden.

Exiting this room, you will find the kitchen / dining area.

Equipped with all modern conveniences and room to seat 10, this space is exactly what you need for a lovely home – cooked meal, or even a drink in the evening with those closest to you.

Next to this room is a downstairs w.c., which then leads onto the boiler room and drying area / boot room.

Proceeding to the first floor of Roydon House, you will discover the first bedroom with a generous king size bed, TV, sofa, plenty of storage, and its own bathroom, equipped with a walk-in shower.

As you leave this space, you will pass the family bathroom equipped with bath (shower over).

On the first floor you will find two further bedrooms; one equipped with a king size bed, and the the other with twin beds .

From the first floor stairs rise to the second floor (and it's worth noting that these stairs are not suitable for young children, or anyone with mobility issues) where you will find two further bedrooms, both equipped with 4' double beds (which are probably better suited to children or smaller adults).

These two bedrooms are are served by a compact shower room.

Outside the property, and mainly to the rear you will find generously proportioned gardens, ideal for the kids or your 4 legged friends, and the perfect place to sit and relax and enjoy a spot of al-fresco dining.

If you can't face cooking then walk a couple of hundred yards up the road to The Baker's Arms, an award winning, quintessential English pub.

Alternatively take the 15 minute stroll into Chipping Campden, where you will find an array of pubs, cafes and restaurants, and where you can enjoy the most traditional of Cotswold towns.

A little further afield lie the Cotswold hot-spots of Chipping Norton, Stow on the Wold and Bouton on the Water (often referred to as 'the Venice of the Cotswolds.

Roydon House really is the perfect location from which to explore this stunning part of England.

Note: This property has a Good Housekeeping bond of £400.

About the location

CHIPPING CAMPDEN

Moreton-in-Marsh 8 miles; Stratford-upon-Avon 12 miles

This market town defines the saying "good things come in small packages" as it proves itself to be a wonderful place for tourists to stay. Chipping Campden sits in the northern part of the Cotswolds and boasts many historical buildings from St. James' church where the Chipping Camden Music Festival is held every year, to the early 17th century market hall upon which the town prides itself. Not only does the town have a rich history but much more, the high street is laced with charming Cotswold stone buildings with a range of shops and pubs. Nearby there are several beautiful, formal gardens for you to wander through. Chipping Campden has held its own 'Olimpick Games' since the early 1600s including peculiar sports such as 'shin-kicking', most certainly worth lining your holiday up with to experience something so unique. For a dose of famous history, head to the birthplace of William Shakespeare in Stratford-upon-Avon just 12 short miles away, it offers some charming little buildings, bookshops, theatres and museums.
