“We had a delightful stay in such a beautiful quaint cottage.”

We wanted for nothing. We loved being so close to the church and hearing the bells. It was one of our favourite English holidays to date.

“Such a lovely cottage, and downstairs was gorgeous with the doors open, We were lucky to have lovely weather and enjoyed the garden.”

The property had everything we needed ! Very handy for town and the castle. It really felt like a home with the personal touches

- Mrs Baker, August 2020
“A lovely well equipped cottage.”

The village is nice, but may lack some of the things you may want. Situated on the main road but the traffic does not seem to much at night, excellent for a walking holiday as many marked ways go through the village and near the cottage. I would recommend this cottage. Give it try if you are looking to go to this area.

- Mr Davies, August 2020
“A wonderful little cottage in a lovely Cotswold town.”

Our group of four adults had a fantastic week and felt very comfortable and relaxed. The best part of this cottage is the lovely garden and the summer room opening with bi fold doors onto it. We were lucky enough to have fantastic weather to enjoy this to the utmost.The house is very well equipped, well decorated and furnished. We had a bit of a problem with the wifi connection but Patricia was very helpful and easy to contact. The only slight downside is the road noise in the front bedroom as the cottage is positioned directly onto a fairly busy road. This is only a problem if you like to sleep with the window open and is not disturbing in the daytime. The position within Winchcombe is great. A few minutes walk and you have a large variety of shops, cafes and pubs. We had lovely meals at The Corner Cupboard (3 mins walk) and The Lion (10 mins walk). Sudeley Castle can be reached walking in under 10 mins and there are many lovely walks nearby. We would definitely love to return.

“Although holiday was great would not recommend sykes due to very poor communication with anxious customers during covid.”

Happy to take our money but impossible to talk to

- Mrs Turrell, July 2020
“Lovely historic town with a cottage that was warm, welcoming and included all the features and equipment needed for a wonderful break.”

The personal touches from the owner made our stay that little bit more special. Wonderful, clean bedding and plenty of towels were provided. A very well kept garden to look out onto even on a frosty morning.

- Mrs Pickett, January 2020
“An excellent break in a cottage that is both thoughtfully decorated and equipped.”

Really enjoyed our stay.

- Mr Burn, December 2019
“Bumble cottage was brilliant.”

In excellent condition and so well equipped. Everything has been considered and was a delight to stay in.

- Mr Kelvin, December 2019
“A really , cosy and comfortable cottage conveniently located for restaurants and shops.”

Interesting walks within a very short distance of the property. Bumble Cottage and Winchcombe itself proved to be a very good choice for our autumn break.

- Mr Harris, November 2019
“The cottage was beautiful and was situated perfectly for the lovely shops, tea rooms and pubs.”

Sudeley Castle is only a short walk away too and we really enjoyed our visit here. Overall, lovely and would definitely return. Thank you!

- Miss Smith, November 2019
“Lovely part of the country and plenty to see and do.”

Cottage perfect, very comfortable and very well equipped.

- Mr Ward, September 2019
“The cottage was delightful.”

- Mrs Moloney, August 2019
“Delightful cottage with beautiful outside space.”

Enjoyed being in centre of village and plenty of amenities on hand. Easy commute to other delightful attractions. The Corner Cupboard Pub good food and made most welcome. Very much enjoyed the steam train to Broadway all the volunteers who run the railway added a touch of bygone days on trains. Very quick response when we had a problem with tap.

- Ms Armstrong, May 2019
“This is a beautiful cottage set in a really pretty town.”

We went with our two teenage children so it was great to have 2 sitting areas and the family kitchen with the lovely enclosed garden was lovely. It was very clean with nice bed linen and towels and felt much nicer than staying in a hotel. We will definitely stay here again, I would rate it 5 stars

- Mrs Andrews, April 2019
“The cottage is really thoughtfully prepared and presented, with every need considered and catered for.”

The owner welcomed us on arrival and was very helpful beforehand with advice about local restaurants and attractions. It is a very comfortable property and ideally situated in Winchcombe for attractions in the Cotswolds, with plenty of good pubs and restaurants in the town itself and a small Coop supermarket with extended opening hours walkable from the cottage. Sudeley Castle is about 5-8 min walk from the front door, but the drive from the gatehouse down to the castle entrance is then about 3/4 mile - walkable, but take the car (free parking) if you have little legs or adults with limited mobility to consider. We are already planning our return visit. With regards to the booking process, I scored Sykes lower on this because finding this cottage was like finding a needle in a haystack. Your listings for the dates I specified ranged from around £350 - £1500+ (for a 3 night short break!) and were a complete scramble. Your search function on your website definitely needs finessing!

Cheltenham 8 miles; Broadway 9 miles; Gloucester 17 miles.

The bustling Fairtrade town of Winchcombe, a conservation site, lies above the River Isbourne, midway between Cheltenham and Broadway. Visitors can sample a mouthwatering array of local produce in the town's restaurants, wine bars, tea shops and deli's, or stroll around the eclectic range of local shops, all located along the three main streets, which remain full of character with their honey coloured stone and timbered exterior. The town also plays host to music and arts festivals, country shows and farmers’ markets. Guided walks around the town are on offer throughout the summer months, while Winchcombe lies on the intersection of the Cotswold Way, Gloucestershire Way, Warden's Way and Windrush Way, providing ample walking to suit all abilities. The quintessential English village of Broadway is just a short drive away and offers individual shops and boutiques, art galleries, restaurants and hotels, including the world-renowned Lygon Arms, popular for centuries and now offering spa facilities. The regency spa town of Cheltenham boasts beautiful Georgian architecture and a delightful range of shops, cinemas, theatres, restaurants, pubs and visitor attractions, including the famous racecourse. Many unspoilt Cotswold towns and villages lie to the east, whilst to the west is the waterfront city of Gloucester and the magnificent Royal Forest of Dean. The beautiful World Heritage city of Bath, Shakespeare's birthplace of Stratford-upon-Avon, and Warwick, with its magnificent castle, are all within an hour’s drive.
