“Generally very clean, though a few cobwebs in place.”

Keeping to the 6pm check in time, was difficult, not much to do late afternoon with a carful of luggage. The heating system was difficult to understand. For dog owners, the Visitor Information Centre in Bourton has a very cheap booklet on dog friendly local walks - highly recommended.

- Ms Joice, September 2021

Thank you for your feedback. The cobwebs have been brought to the attention of the housekeeper and we apologise for these having been missed. There should have been instructions for the heating in the property but we will of course check on this and ensure instructions are available for future guests. Thank you for your suggestions, also.

Mrs Walther September 2021

“Well equipped cottage, but a few cobwebs around the place.”

Parking was fine as long as only the driver remained in the car for parking.

- Mrs Walther, September 2021

Thank you for taking the time to feedback on your stay at Bobble Cottage. The issues of cobwebs has been brought to the attention of the housekeeper to ensure extra attention is paid to these going forward. We hope you enjoyed your stay! Property Owner
Ms Brimble September 2021

“Parking a nightmare, spoilt holiday as could not be sure of parking again if we went out.”

Parking at village hall also impossible at times. Oven and freezer not as clean as we would have liked.

- Ms Brimble, September 2021

Many thanks for your feedback. We're sorry that you experienced parking difficulties during your stay and have brought the issues of cleanliness to the attention of the housekeeper. We apologise that the fridge and oven were not spotless as we'd expect and will ensure future guests do not have the same problems. Property Owner
Mrs Connolly September 2021

“The cottage was exceptional except I was ging to vacuum the night before we left and when I switched the vacuum on it smelt absolutely awful.”

There was no way I was going to use it. It definaletly needs to be cleaned out.

- Mrs Connolly, September 2021

Thank you for your feedback. We're very sorry to ear that the vacuum was too smelly for use! Our housekeeper will be investigating at the earliest opportunity to ensure future guests don't have the same experience. We're glad that you enjoyed your time at Bobble Cottage nonetheless and would love to welcome you back again one day! Property Owner
Mr Jewison June 2021

“The parking is not suitable for modern cars/SVU very small space but you can park 2 minutes up the road outside the village hall.”

- Mr Jewison, June 2021
Mr Tugwood May 2021

“Lovely little cottage in a good peaceful location.”

Well equipped with everything needed for a short stay. Parking space is very tight in anything bigger than a Smart Car.

- Mr Tugwood, May 2021

Thank you for your feedback with regards to your recent stay at Bobble Cottage. It's lovely to hear how much you enjoyed your stay at the cottage and we would love to welcome you back again in the future. Property Owner
Mrs Innes April 2021

“Lovely cottage in good location.”

Thought decoration was a bit scuffed throughout and could do with a repaint. Headboard on bed also required and operating instructions book for oven not in property. Change door opening side on fridge. Wonky door on shower. Hoover useless. Parking space is very narrow. Small things to criticise I know, but easily rectified and would make the cottage perfect but that didn’t spoil our lovely stay. Nice location and a lovely walk into Bourton via the church and fields recommended.

- Mrs Innes, April 2021

We are pleased to hear you had a lovely stay in Bobble Cottage, we will look into your comments many thanks Manor Cottages Property Owner
Mrs Rock April 2021

“The cottage was beautiful, and very comfortable.”

The only thing we would have liked was a small TV in the bedroom. We will definately return to this cottage.

- Mrs Rock, April 2021

We look forward to welcoming you to Bobble Cottage in the near future. Property Owner
Mr Wood October 2020

“Disappointed when arrived at pet friendly very small cottage to find pets had restrictions.”

This should not be classed as pet friendly

- Mr Wood, October 2020
Mrs Cade October 2020

“The property is lovely!”

The bed and sofa are super comfy which was great. The property was clean on the surface but it did need a deeper clean, for example dust and fluff under the furniture and on plug sockets. We also washed all of the cutlery, plates, cups etc because there were crumbs in the cutlery drawer and on some of the knives. Due to the covid rules it was required to strip the bed, once I'd done so I saw many stains on the duvet itself! Considering the fact we are in the middle of a pandemic I think the property should be deep cleaned and old duvets etc replaced. It would also be useful to have some more cupboard space in the kitchen for our own food etc, I had move loads of stuff around just to get one shelf for our things! The location of the property is perfect, very close to all the beautiful little towns including bourton on the water and stow on the wold. It is also close to a lovely national trust walk and a zoo where we could take our dog!

- Mrs Cade, October 2020

Thank you for your feedback and apologies that the property was not up to the high standard of cleanliness we aim to achieve every time. We will discuss the issues raised with housekeeping. Manor Cottages Property Owner

- Mr Cory, September 2020
Mr Taylor September 2020

“The cottage was very clean.”

There was a nice touch with tea, coffee and milk already there . A lovely specious bathroom and a nice comfy bed. A lovely location, not very far from Bourton and the Slaughters.

Mrs Williamson July 2020

“Fantastic little cottage.”

Beautiful location. Was everything we wanted and needed. Would highly recommend and would visit again without hesitation. I have only one comment to make and its not a complaint, merely a suggestion - bigger outside bin required. We were there for a week and felt bin wasnt big enough.

- Mrs Williamson, July 2020

Many thanks for your lovely comments on Bobble Cottage, we are glad it was everything you wanted and needed. We will pass the comment regarding the outside bin onto the owner and we would love to welcome you back in the near future. Manor Cottages Property Owner
Mr Prowting March 2020

Mrs Tarren May 2019

“Bobble Cottage provided a great base for our first visit to the Cotswolds, it may be small but it is perfectly formed.”

It was spotlessly clean, the bed was comfortable, the shower was good & there was all that you could need in the kitchen utensils wise. The milk, cookies & ice in the freezer on our arrival were a nice touch & it was handy being able to access Netflix on the TV. We enjoyed some glorious weather during our week & enjoyed sitting out in front of the cottage to soak up some late afternoon sun. The location is super central for Bourton-on-the-Water, Stow On The Wold & all of the must see places in the Cotswolds. One thing worth highlighting with this property to help anyone booking in future is the allocated parking space, it is very narrow. We have a Ford Focus & it completely filled the space, my husband had to do some serious gymnastics to get out of the car once parked up between the other vehicles in the courtyard. You wouldn’t get a bigger vehicle in to the space- I know there is a mention of alternative parking outside the village hall but there were vehicles already parked there so not a feasible alternative. Also the cottage would benefit from a proper wheelie bin like the other properties in Bobble Court have- the small black bin by the front door was already 3/4 full when we arrived for our weeks break which left little room for our rubbish.

- Mrs Tarren, May 2019

Thank you for your feedback, The car park space allocated is big enough to park a normal sized car. I have parked there many times in my 4x4 and had no trouble. There is more spaces in the road nearby and also by the village hall that is not far at all.I would advise you unload when you arrive and if you then find the space is too narrow just park by the village hall or in the nearby lane. Bobble is delightful and the perfect location to explore the Cotswolds, so please don't let the parking put you off. Property Owner
Mr Faulkner April 2019

“Bobble cottage was very clean and comfortable.”

Nice peaceful location Parking is very tight when other cottages are all in use all though stated on paper work That we could park on village hall a few yards away. while we there a notice on village hall stated event. Parking for patrons only

- Mr Faulkner, April 2019
Mr Kenner March 2019

“Pleasant cottage in a quiet village.”

Good walking paths in the area. Only issue was the parking bay for number 3 was very tight. When other occupants parked upto the lines we couldn't get our car in the bay or not get out. We were able to use another bay but that might not always be an option. Instructions for the fire would be helpful. Would also be nice to have had recycling bins for the cottages.

- Mr Kenner, March 2019
Mr Nicholson February 2019

“Fantastic week in Bobble Cottage.”

Excellent location for touring the Cotswolds.

- Mr Nicholson, February 2019
Mr Offord November 2018

“As this area is so good for walking, I would have liked an OS map 1:25,000 scale to use and plot a walk, along with the other literature at the cottage.”

The information folder states to use the No. 3 refuse bin.... There is no refuse bin!! talking to the next door neighbour, he's quite upset that other cottage users have put their rubbish into his bin, or left the plastic sacks outside of bins. This then gets torn open by foxes / cats, and leaves rubbish strewn around. That's why our sack was left in the property. The toilet seat requires attention, as when used, the seat falls out of the fixing brackets!! Also, if the shower could be upgraded to a power-shower, would make the experience better, and perhaps for winter, a permanant heater installed in that room. The TV seemed to have NETFLIX, but I couldn't access this, although not a big deal for us, maybe others would be disappointed. All in all, we had a very enjoyable week there, and would consider returning.

- Mr Offord, November 2018
Mr Moore September 2018

“Very comfy cottage.”

Would suggest shelf in shower cubicle and drawers needed in bedroom though. Otherwise overall very satisfied.

Bobble Cottage is a delightful Cotswold cottage, stunning and contemporary and, in our opinion absolutely ideal for couples looking for a weekend bolt hole.

The property is located in a quiet corner of the beautiful Cotswold village of Little Rissington and has off street parking for one car.

Internally the ground floor is open plan, with a welcoming cosy and warm feeling upstairs is a good sized bedroom with ensuite bathroom .

Bobble Cottage is presented to a very high standard with comfort central to its appeal.

About the location

LITTLE RISSINGTON

Bourton-on-the-Water 2 miles; Stow-on-the-Wold 5 miles.

Little Rissington is a quiet village outside the popular destination of Bourton-on-the-Water, Little Rissington is worth visiting for its 12th century church with its moving memorial to RAF servicemen. The village styling is typical for the Cotswolds; small cottages fronted by flower-boxes.

Associations are always made between the village and RAF Little Rissington, the air base which was located relatively close. The base is gone now, though buildings still remain and have now become the new village of Upper Rissington, and the aerodrome is now used for hang-gliding.

The main attraction is the 12th century church, which lies apart from the village up a short path to the west of the road. On Pound Lane is a row of Cotswold stone cottages described as perhaps the best example in Gloucestershire of 17th century vernacular building.

Building work nearby internally from 15/1/20-31/1/20. There might be some noise.
Note: No cot or high chair supplied.
This property requires good housekeeping bond of £100.
Note: There is parking directly in front of the property, marked No. 3, but please be aware it is a small space only suitable for smaller cars. Additional parking is available outside the village hall which is a 2 minute walk from Bobble Cottage.
