October 2023

“The beautifull house was spacious enough for our family and we enjoyed the nice surroundings and well maintained garden!”

All kitchen supplies we needed were available. Cleanliness could be a bit better: lots of dust behind and under furniture (and even 1 lost child shoe). Unfortunately the central heating stopped working during our stay, but luckily the mobile electric heatings kept us warm. Some attention could be done for the bathroom: the showerhead produced brownish rusty water each time in the beginning when the water was running. And the temperature control of the shower is nearly working anymore.

“Very nice, lovely cottage in a perfect surrounding (village, Garden, nature).”

Perfect for a familie of 4 + Dog. For 6 People it would be a bit small.

Thank you for your feedback. We are pleased to hear that you enjoyed your stay and the local area. Best wishes, Manor Cottages Property Owner
Micaela July 2023

“We are a family of 6 and stayed at Spring Cottage for 2 weeks.”

The house is absolutely lovely, the garden and the surroundings are superb. The kitchen is very well equipped. Comfortable beds and beautiful bathroom with a great water pressure! The bedrooms and dining area are a bit tight and there was a little extra dust in hidden spots, but overall Spring Cottage exceeded our expectations!

- Micaela, July 2023

Thank you for your lovely feedback! We are so glad to hear that you enjoyed your time away and we appreciate your feedback regarding the cleanliness. We will make sure that this is rectified for future guests and hope that we can welcome you again soon. Best wishes, Manor Cottages. Property Owner
Mary June 2023

“We had a wonderful holiday, the sound of bird-song went on all day and the stream at the bottom of the garden was a restful experience, along with reading under the apple tree in the large garden.”

The house was homely and comfortable, the kitchen well equipped. Great walks all around. We hope to return.

- Mary, June 2023
Daniel June 2023

“Spring Cottage is a superb place to immerse oneself in the heart of the Cotswolds.”

It's very well appointed and blessed with a river at the bottom of (one of the) gardens. Had everything we needed for a very pleasant early summer stay. It is a very beautiful setting - a peaceful and perfect place to unwind. Region not blessed with outstanding attractions (imo) although Chidcote superb and much recommended. Surprisingly decent lunch at the Catherine Wheel in Arlington (Bibury). Easy to find not so easy to leave! Thoroughly recommended.

- Daniel, June 2023

“An absolutely delightful cottage.”

4 adults / 2 teenage kids. plenty of space. would definitely book again.

Siobhain May 2023

“The cottage is set in lovely grounds by a stream.”

It is very quaint and well appointed, however the beds were uncomfortable, none of us slept well. The back bedroom ceiling light was full of dead flies with one still alive and crawling around, really unpleasant. There is no mirror in the master bedroom, it would be helpful to have a full length in there. The grounds are lovely but in general the cottage needs redecorating, it could be something very special.

- Siobhain, May 2023

Many thanks for taking the time to share your feedback, which we will discuss with the owner and housekeepers. We're pleased to hear your enjoyed the peaceful location and surrounding area of the cottage. Best wishes, Manor Cottages. Property Owner
Lynn November 2022

“I was very concerned about the cleanliness before I arrived due to past reviews.”

Im pleased to say I needn't have worried. The beds were very comfortable and the cottage was cosy. The setee was a bit hard and uncomfortable and really could do with updating. The downstairs bathroom radiator wasn't working so we didnt use the downstairs shower as the room was too cold ( I have since contacted manor cottages and they are going to fix this). There are plenty of walks to do from the cottage and the real fire was lovely to come back to. I totally agree with a previous review that it is not for anyone with mobility problems due to the path to the cottage being pretty steep. But all in all we were pretty happy with our choice of cottage and really enjoyed our stay.

- Lynn, November 2022

Thank you for taking the time to provide this feedback. We're glad that you found the cottage to be clean and cosy. Thank you also for bringing some issues to our attention and we hope these didn't impact your stay too much, and that we can welcome you again. Manor Cottages Property Owner
Martin October 2022

“We really loved our stay here.”

The property has a large garden with a stream running through which more could have been made of in the property description. The apple tree, completely laden with fruit (we stayed at the end of October) was an unexpected bonus! The bedrooms and lounge were comfortable, and although the kitchen was a little tight, it was manageable. We have a few suggestions for things which would have made our stay even better: a washing-up bowl, extra teaspoons, an extra set of bowls, bins in the bedrooms, recycling information (we ended up taking a lot of our recycling home with us), a dinner service suitable for the microwave (metal-rimmed crockery is not microwave compatible). We did struggle with the heating, which seemed to go off at 7:30pm every evening (and at 6:30pm with the hour change!). However, the upstairs bathroom was often over-heated. We would definitely be happy to stay here again, despite these minor issues.

- Martin, October 2022

We are so glad that you enjoyed your stay and made the most of the stream and the seasonal apples. Thank you for your suggestions, these have been passed onto our housekeeping team. We look forward to welcoming you back again in the future. Best wishes Manor Cottages Property Owner

“Not suitable for senior, dangerous entrance with no handrails, Down stairs toilet /shower very cold, heating off .”

Cooker door not closing properly in kitchen.rear bedrooms overlook from neighbours garden .Found dead insect in one the mugs hanging in the kitchen also in the downstairs toilet.Difficult to find as Sat nav take you to other end of lane.had to make inquiries with people living in the area.parking difficulties no lane lighting,

- Francis, September 2022

Thank you for your feedback with regards to your stay at Spring Cottage. I'm sorry to hear you found the cottage unsuitable without an outside handrail. If you had called before booking, we would of happily have advised you of alternative accommodation, to have better suited your needs. The path to the cottage doesn't have a handrail, but it's in the countryside which has a stream beside the house. If it had lots of steps going to he front door, then of course this would be a different matter. Did you call the Housekeeper to help you get the heating on?. We will arrange for Maintenance to have a look at the cooker, so thank you for letting us know. With regards to finding the cottage, unfortunately Satnav doesn't always get you outside the door, which is why we provide additional directions. If you are lost, please get in touch with us and we can direct you in. We hope you still managed to enjoy your stay. Kind regards Manor Cottages. Property Owner
Paul July 2022

Katrina June 2022

“The cottage was lovely,the garden with the river and stream was amazing,apart from the 4 lots of dog poo left in the garden.”

The cleanliness of the sitting room was poor,with dust everywhere and stains on the carpets and sofas. The kitchen was bad,cutlery and utensils had been put away with food on them, when i got pans etc out to use they were dirty and the small frying pan had congealed fat and food debris left in it,the cooker hood was caked in grease. The shower heads leaked in both bathrooms.I have been self-catering all over the UK for 30 years+ and considering the cost of a weeks stay in 'Spring Cottage' this does not rank very highly.

- Katrina, June 2022

Thank you for taking the time to leave a feedback, we are very sorry you had cleaning problems with your stay. We wish you let us know while you are at the property, we would have send someone over to deep clean it for you. the housekeeper who cleaned the property is now aware. We apologies again and hope to give you a better experience next time. Property Owner
Ray May 2022

“We contacted you on Wednesday to inform you we had to leave but no response!”

After we booked we mearly wanted a nice quiet location in an nice setting following months of stress. Whilst the cottage and location was very good we could no longer tolerate the noise from three building sites nearby, constant swearing and angle grinding and banging. In addition chain sawing. We wish we had fair warning from the owners/cleaners in this regard. We thought it would let up at 16:00 but continued from 08:00 to 19:30 every days. The property next door on the stream decided to employ a company or bodgers! who demolished a shed on a Sunday who did not have a clue by constantly banging all day instead of using a crowbar/saw and swore like the others! It was disappointing, we wanted to enjoy the outside surroundings which were ideal with the stream and wildlife. We did attempt to do so to no avail as we could not even hear each other. We were forced to go out on the days in situe but this was never our intention and came home for some peace! Please escalate and seek advises? We would certainly not wish on any future visitors as it would be equally unfair. Thank you Ray Johnson

- Ray, May 2022

Thank you for providing us with your feedback. We can only apologise for the disruption you experienced during your stay. This was an unforeseeable situation and if we had known before, you would have been contacted prior to your stay. We have since learned that the shed demolition has now been completed, and the other work surrounding the property has quietened down. We can once again only apologise for this disruption and would like to welcome you back to the property again in the future, where you can relax as intended. Property Owner
Debbie April 2022

“Amazing property, exactly what we needed for a wedding event family to stay .”

No faults at all in the property except one lightbulb over dining table not working and lots of dust on the travel cot storage bag and lots of food crumbs left under sofa seat pads . Small details though and otherwise Ed had wonderful stay Thank you

- Debbie, April 2022

Thank you for taking the time to leave such a constructive feedback, we are sorry that you had a few issues with your property even if minor, Next time please let us know and we will rectify it for you straightaway. we are delighted you enjoyed your stay and looking forward to welcoming you again soon.

“We loved the house, hugely surprised about the area and how romantic it was, the photo's on the website didn't do justice to how wonderful it was, cottage was comfortable and we enjoyed a lot, beds were great and garden amazing, only thing I hope is that they replace the pans !”

But further it is an amazing place to be !!! We would like to come back here:) kind regards Anita

Simon September 2021

“Cleanliness could have been better.”

It lacked homely touches like a tray and books. The beds were very comfortable but the double bedroom was compact. Towels and bedding were good and the garden and outside space were lovely. A pity the water softener was not operational. We did enjoy our stay however.

- Simon, September 2021

Thank you for your feedback. We're sorry that the cleanliness was not to the standard be expect and hope it did not impact your stay to much. Property Owner
Jenny August 2021

“The garden was amazing - the photos did not do it justice!”

Cottage was cosy , beds very comfy . I think pointing out quite how remote the location was would be helpful - everything is a drive!

- Jenny, August 2021
Kate July 2021

“The website photos do not do the surroundings justice, it was picture perfect and so peaceful.”

The cottage was very sweet with a gorgeous garden and the beds really comfortable. The sofas were a bit uncomfortable and old though and could do with replacing. The kitchen was good with all we needed except a tray would be useful to take drinks up to the terrace. Loved the river and the beautiful village but would have been nice to know there was a footpath with a bridge leading to a field that we didn’t discover till our last day. Perfect for peace and quiet.

- Kate, July 2021

Thank you for your feedback. We really appreciate your suggestions for improvement and will forward them to the owner. We are glad that you enjoyed your stay and welcome you back anytime in the future. Property Owner

“Everything was just fantastic.”

Richard October 2020

“The organisation and marketing by Sykes was brilliant.”

The cottage itself was ok but needed extra effort to be great. Cleanliness was very disappointing with furnishing and fixtures covered in dust and pet hairs and a graveyard of dead bugs behind the tv. Little things like the mantelpiece clock not working, door bell not working, lamp bulbs not working all add up to an average experience. The owners are clearly making a lot of money from this rental being booked out every day this month so better investment in their customer experience is expected (especially when these things have been mentioned on previously published feedbacks). Otherwise enjoyed the stay - location and outdoor areas were fab and would go back if reassured that this feedback was actioned.

- Richard, October 2020

Thank you for the feedback, this has been passed on to the housekeeper and she has sincerely apologised. Many thanks Property Owner
Linda September 2020

“Beautiful cottage in idyllic location.”

However access to the cottage itself is difficult, particularly with luggage and food bags, as you can’t park near enough and the lane itself is very steep. You can’t tell this from the photos. It didn’t spoil our holiday at all, but I imagine in bad weather and limited mobility it would be extremely hard. The gardens backing onto the river are so peaceful and very private. Just being able to sit and watch swans and ducks float by was lovely. Photos don’t do it justice. ( they need to be updated on the website) Bedrooms are quaint, and a little on the tight side for moving around, but very comfortable. The one double bedroom, we couldn’t access the fitted wardrobe properly as the door wouldn’t open past the edge of the bed. We did feel that carpets and furniture covers were a touch shabby and needed replacing or deep cleaning, and there were a few little niggles that needed seeing to, but all in all it certainly wouldn’t stop us going back there. Be very careful with the hot water taps, especially with children as the water was scalding.

- Linda, September 2020

Many thanks for your feedback on Spring Cottage. we agree it is situated in an idyllic location. Since your stay all the carpets have been professionally cleaned. We will look at other issues raised. Manor Cottages Property Owner
Kris August 2020

“Lovely cottage with a truly amazing position on the river bank.”

Very idyllic location. The cottage interiors however felt a lot like a second, not-so-loved home. The furniture, carpets etc felt a bit grubby. Beds very uncomfortable. The type you put on your holiday cottage - too good to throw away but you wouldn’t have them in your main home. The kitchen and its cupboards (with plenty of content) didn’t feel very clean. The coffee plunger is broken - perhaps small but an important detail. It was great for a summer stay when you spend a lot of time outdoors (on the lovely river deck). I would not stay here in the winter confined to the indoors. Having said that the cottage offered good value for money this time of the year in this part of the Cotswolds. I would stay again in the summer.

David November 2019

“We had a wonderfully relaxed break at Spring Cottage.”

The cottage is very cozy and comfortable. We had a Winter break so It was lovely to get in from the cold into a lovely warm cottage as the central heating was very good. The garden and river at the end of the garden were wonderful, I spent hours every day just sitting and watching the wildlife go about their daily business... so many different birds it’s a Twitchers heaven! Our dog loved the big garden. Two minor issues were that there seemed to be several lightbulbs not working, some lights in the living room, one of the bedrooms, but particularly the porch and entrance lights. We’d brought a torch which was essential when dog walking in the evening as the village is unlit, although maybe having a torch in the cottage would be helpful? Secondly, the village recycling system had changed recently requiring different colour bins for different recycled material. Unfortunately, our cottage didn’t appear to have the appropriate bins. Overall we really enjoyed our stay in this gorgeous, cozy, tranquil cottage in a beautiful spot and would definitely recommend it.

- David, November 2019

Thank you for taking the time to leave your feedback for Spring Cottage. Manor Cottages takes feedback very seriously and will take action to rectify the light bulbs and investigate the recycling bins. We are pleased to hear you had a wonderful stay and would recommend Spring Cottage. Property Owner

“Great cottage in a beautiful peaceful setting we loved it”

- Suzanne, August 2019
Micheal April 2019

“We greatly enjoyed our stay at Spring Cottage, located in a very quiet corner of this incredibly beautiful Cotswold village, with an unhindered view across the garden to the countryside beyond.”

The beautiful living room is the nicest feature of the house and the central heating quickly warms it when lit. We had glorious weather over the whole Easter weekend and were able to enjoy the sunny outdoor terrace in between spending most days visiting family in a nearby village. The cottage is small, though, especially for 6 adults. The bedrooms are smaller than one is led to believe in the property description; only the second twin room is advertised as being small, whereas the double bedroom barely affords space to move around and no space to unpack a case on the floor without blocking the door. The dining area in a corner is cramped, too small for 6 people round the table without everyone having to get up to allow others to leave. Fortunately, this was not too much of an issue for us since we ate all meals outside except breakfast. There didn't appear to any way to heat the kitchen which was chilly first thing in the morning. On the other hand, there was ample stock of quality crockery and cutlery. There was an unpleasant smell in the hall the whole time (drains?), but a previous tenant has already remarked on this, so hopefully that will be resolved soon.

- Micheal, April 2019

Although Spring Cottage is a 3 bedroom property, it is priced lower than the average 3 bedroom cottage due to the smaller living / dining area which is more aimed at 4 people comfortably. Also it is described on the website that the second twin room is more suitable for children due to the smaller room size. The issue with the smell was not raised during the stay, but was investigated as soon as it was brought to our attention which was when the feeeback was received. All pipes, toilets, bathrooms were checked despite no smell detected and no issue was found. Property Owner
Janet Elizabeth April 2019

“Upon arrival there was an unpleasant smell in the sitting room and in the bedroom above the sitting room.”

It lasted throughout the weekend.

- Janet Elizabeth, April 2019

As with all our Cottages there is a welcome folder with useful information about the cottage including a phone number for our guests to use for any issues. This is manned 24/7. Unfortunately, no concerns were raised during the stay, however, our maintenance responded to the issue of smell as soon as we were made aware having had the feedback. When maintenance arrived at the cottage, there was no smell, yet still carried out a series of checks but found no issues. Property Owner
Mary January 2019

“Well equipped comfortable cosy cottage in very pretty location.”

Lovely walks nearby but a good distance to shops so you would need to plan ahead. A great choice for people looking for countryside and tranquility. Problem with upstairs shower not working was investigated promptly but not able to repair during our short visit. However there was a second showerroom downstairs.

- Mary, January 2019

Our maintenance responded to the issue of the shower urgently and found that parts were required in order to function properly. These could not be obtained in time but was repaired shortly after the guests departed. Property Owner
Madeleine December 2018

“We had a lovely break at Spring Cottage.”

Spring Cottage was in an idyllic location and had it been summertime it would have been an even more appreciated stay as the gardens were lovely and spacious. Although the accommodation is listed as 3 bedrooms and could accommodate 6 people, the bedrooms were small and the double bed was not big enough for a long stay. Also, the lounge/dining room which was the only reception room would have been too small for more than 4 people. However, regardless of the above, it was a beautiful cottage, impeccably clean and a real delight to enjoy. The downside is walking down all your luggage from the road to the property but I guess that is part of the charm of the setting in itself. A very quite location and very relaxing. We had a small dog with us, Hector, who enjoyed himself enormously and there were a number of quality hotels/pubs in the nearby villages that accommodated us taking Hector with us to dinner each evening where Hector was made very welcome on all occasions. Our favourite hotel/pub was called The Village Pub in Barnsley - absolutely fabulous cuisine and ambience. We would strongly recommend Spring Cottage taking into our comments above.

- Madeleine, December 2018
Rose December 2018

“Cottage set deep in Cotswolds once left main road one car width to drive to village.”

No mobile phone signal so need in car sat-nav don't arrive after dark you wont find cottage as it is off road even with sat-nav.Leave range rover at home and take the mini as car parking is difficult. No street lighting at all so need powerful torch to walk the dog. Finally down stairs saniflow toilet would not advise to use stick to main bathroom up stairs

- Rose, December 2018
. September 2018

“There were many things wrong.”

The property isn’t easily accessible for anyone with mobility issues. Parking was a nightmare. The wifi info was incorrect, the kitchen faucet wasn’t working properly. There wasn’t firewood, starting materials or briquettes so as a result we couldn’t use the bbq.. Kitchen utensils were cheap and knives weren’t sharp and couldn’t cut properly. The property in general was misrepresented and was rather shabby and rundown. Also I haven’t heard back about my damage deposit that should have been returned to me. Please let me know when this will happen.

The property

Spring Cottage is very much, and every inch, the quintessential English and Cotswolds cottage.

An 18th Century cottage set in an adorable little village just Outside Bibury (near Burford), it offers guests a wonderful option to sample the Cotswolds' at its most charming best.

Overlooking a beautiful garden and with a river gently meandering past its foot, you have the true picture-postcard location in just about every sense.

Inside each room throughout the cottage has a warm, welcoming feel, with delightful views across the open countryside or village.

We particularly adore the garden-to-river view from the cottage along with the seats perched on the rivers' edge from which to enjoy the world drift past, it is about as serene a location as you could possibly imagine.

The village of Winson is so typically Cotswolds that it is hard to imagine that anything has changed in the last 200 years, except for the odd car tootling through the local lanes...This is a family and friends' location, a chance to enjoy the fresh air, walking into Bibury (and the pubs of course) or to simply take in some breathtaking views on the many paths peppered across the landscape.

Heavenly! Note: Parking available on first come first serve basis at the top of the road, you will need to walk down to the property.

This may not be suitable for people with mobility issues, as it is quite a steep hill to and from the property.

Note: This property has a Good Housekeeping bond of £100.

About the location

BIBURY

Burford 9 miles; Bourton-on-the-Water 10 miles.

William Morris called Bibury ‘the most beautiful village in England” and today it is world famous as a village which best epitomises the English rural scene. At its centre is an outstanding Saxon church. So important is the village architecturally that the National Trust is closely involved in its preservation - Arlington Row, a row of weavers cottages was restored by the Trust in the 1970s and its distinctive roofline and gables are one of the most photographed scenes in the Cotswolds. The village has a selection of shops, pubs and tea rooms and a wider range of amenities are available in the nearby market town of Burford “Gateway to the Cotswolds”.

NOTE: This property has a £100 good housekeeping bond, this amount is automatically shadowed when the booking is made.
Note: Guests take great care at the water's edge, therefore parents with children should be careful, and supervise them outside at all times.
