    “The only reason it doesn’t get a top mark throughout is that there was something lacking with the electricity supply.”

    We have an electric car. When we arrived we were very very low on charge after the journey down (our fault I admit) and needed to put a few miles back into the car battery for safety. Normally you can do this with a trickle feed known as a granny charge by using a three pin plug in the premises. It just puts a few miles into the car to get you to a fast charger elsewhere. We couldn’t do that because there was insufficient power in the house electricity supply and it might have been a disaster ...

Normally you can do this with a trickle feed known as a granny charge by using a three pin plug in the premises. It just puts a few miles into the car to get you to a fast charger elsewhere. We couldn’t do that because there was insufficient power in the house electricity supply and it might have been a disaster on our first day. The electricity is adequate for the utilities in the house but not for the car charging. Not normally a problem, but in these days of increasing electric vehicles I do think that this matter should be pointed out because some people will rely on a few miles of charge in the same way we did! Other than this it is a great premises.

    Thank you for your feedback with regards to your stay at The Granary. We will of course pass on your comments to the Owner, but this is a first that we have had guests advise the electric supply isn't enough for the house. We will get Maintenance to assess, but we do not advise guests to use the 3 pin plug to charge the car, we only permit charging with actual charging points that are in place at our holiday homes. If you need locations of charging points, may i suggest you try Zap-Map as this tell you all the local places to charge and if they are fast charging points or not, we use it all the time with our electric car. We hope you still had a lovely stay with us and we would love to welcome you again very soon. Kind regards Manor Cottages. Property Owner

The property

The Granary is a typical Cotswolds property, that is very well suited to either a couples or a small family.

Located in the charming village of Nether Westcote, a village ideal for visiting the many honeypot places that this region is well known for - Burford, Stow on the Wold and Bourton on the Water and itself positioned in a glorious rural location.

Inside, the barn is an 'upside-down' home with the two bedrooms and two bathrooms on the ground floor, while upstairs is living area with great views across the village area plus a modern and stylish kitchen / diner.

That said, you may not do much cooking as the excellent Feathered Nest (pub) is a few hundred yards down the lane and one of the most popular pubs in the area - which enjoys spectacular views from the garden (http://www.thefeatherednestinn.co.uk) For those who like a little bit of exclusive shopping you can pop to Daylesford Organics in Kingham - one of the preeminent Cotswolds destinations!

About the location

BURFORD

Swinbrook 2.4 miles; Little Barrington 3.5 miles; Minster Lovell 5.6 miles.

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, it 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 midway between Oxford and Cheltenham, 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 change 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 tea shops. It is an ideal base for visiting The Cotswolds area as it is within easy driving distance of popular attractions such as Blenheim Palace, Sudeley Castle, Warwick Castle and several National Trust Houses and Gardens. Bourton on the Water, Bibury, Cirencester and Stow on the Wold are all within ten miles.
