“The apartment was lovely and had everything needed for our 3 night stay.”

It was beautifully clean and comfortable and a perfect base for exploring the area.

It was beautifully clean and comfortable and a perfect base for exploring the area. Wouldn’t hesitate to rebook the Postmaster’s Lodgings for another getaway in the Cotswolds in the future.

Jaen January 2022

“THIS PROPERTY IS FIRST CLASS.”

HELEN MADE US FEEL VERY WELCOME (I HOPE WE DIDN'T SOUND TOO GRUMPY AS WE HAD HAD A TERRIBLE JOURNEY) THE ACCOMMODATION WAS EXCELLENT IN EVERY RESPECT. COULDN'T FAULT IT, PITY THE PARKING IS NOT MORE CONVENIENT BUT THE BEAUTIFUL TOWN WAS BUILT BEFORE CARS, AND WE MANAGED, WOULD LOVE TO VISIT AGAIN FOR A LONGER STAY. ( I DON'T OFTEN SAY THAT BECAUSE I LIKE NEW EXPERIENCES)

“We had a great stay at this lovely accommodation.”

It was spotlessly clean, very comfortable and excellent value for money. We would definitely return.

Chris November 2021

“Lovely stay at the Postmaster's Lodging.”

Comfortable and well equipped and the welcome treats were a nice touch. Great location in the heart of Winchcombe which is a lovely quiet spot, but has a good selection of pubs, restaurants and shops and is a good base for walking and exploring the cotswolds.

- Chris, November 2021
Trevor October 2021

“The Postmasters lodging was great.”

Excellant location, comfortable & well equiped. Having three super kingsize beds was perfect for us. The parking was a short walk away & if you use the Ringo App very easy to pay the £1.20 daily charge & extend it. We never used the car during our stay as plenty to do for the 3 days with steam train to Cheltenham, 8 mile walk taking in Roman mosaic, ancient long barrow & disused water Mill. Very comfortable for relaxing & catching up with friends.

- Trevor, October 2021

Julie August 2021

“The accommodation is superb.”

Beautifully clean, well appointed & centrally located. Helen was welcoming & left us wine, milk & biscuits which was a nice touch. Although we didn't encounter any problems, I feel sure from her welcoming e:mail that she would have responded quickly if we had needed anything. We would love to go back. I could definitely recommend.

Alethea August 2021

“Fantastic location and facilities.”

Winchcombe made us very welcome. Our stay was made even better with having all amenities on the doorstep. Easy access to neighbouring villages. Helen is a wonderful host. Highly recommend this property and area - beautiful

Elizabeth July 2021

“The apartment was extremely comfortable and suited us well.”

It was great to have a bottle of wine and biscuits waiting for us when we arrived. The kitchen was well equipped and the bedrooms were comfortable. Good central location in Winchcombe, which is a characterful town with interesting shops and well placed for walking and for visiting Cheltenham.

- Elizabeth, July 2021

Gisela June 2021

“Postmasters Lodging is ideally located in the centre of Winchcombe.”

The shop opposite was handy for daily supplies and there’s lots of good pubs for eating out. - we tried nearly all of them and were never disappointed. The accommodation was spotlessly clean and tastefully furnished. The beds were very comfortable and there was plenty of storage space. It suited us (two couples) perfectly. We had hot sunny weather and spent all day walking. Each morning we closed the blinds and returned each afternoon to cool rooms. It would have been very warm if the sun shone in all day. We had a great holiday there.

- Gisela, June 2021
Deborah October 2020

“Highly recommended.”

Very comfortable apartment, good size too. Well equipped kitchen, we cooked a couple of meals and had everything we needed. We were left fresh milk, biscuits and wine which was very much appreciated. The parking wasn't a problem, Winchcombe has a large car park and the day we left we briefly stopped outside the house to load the car.

- Deborah, October 2020
Bryony October 2020

“Just returned from a lovely stay in Winchcombe.”

The accomodation is modern, spacious and very comfortable would highly recommend.

Matthew August 2020

“A lovely stay at the Postmaster's Lodging in Winchcombe - the flat was beautifully decorated and had everything we needed facilities-wise - it really felt like a home from home and that someone had taken time and trouble to make sure we had everything we needed.”

Being centrally located meant everything we needed was on the doorstep, as well as plenty of beautiful countryside a short walk away - parking was close by and there was always plenty of space. We really enjoyed our week and would recommend it to anyone looking for family-sized accommodation in the Cotswolds.

- Matthew, August 2020
Elaine August 2020

“The accommodation was spotlessly clean upon our arrival and more than met all our needs during our seven night stay.”

The living area is both spacious, light and airy. The kitchen is very well equipped and we wanted for nothing. All three bedrooms had been made up as doubles as we had requested. During our week in Winchcombe we were blessed with some of the hottest weather of the year. The master bedroom did become unbearably hot during this period but the owner Helen was quick off the mark in providing a cooling fan upon request. 10 out of 10.

- Elaine, August 2020
Lindsay March 2020

“We arrived for cheltenham gold cup and had travelled 3 hours.”

We had been left milk and tea and coffee in the pots. Which was well needed! Beautiful place. And beautiful apartment. Clean with everything you need. Loved it. Would definitely go back

- Lindsay, March 2020
Heather February 2020

“We loved the apartment and found everything we needed had been provided.”

The beds were amazing, so comfortable and lovely bedding.

- Heather, February 2020
Donna January 2020

“The location was perfect.”

The lodge was decorated and furnished to a high standard. It was spacious and there was plenty of room for 6 guests. We all felt very relaxed and comfortable. We hope to return.

- Donna, January 2020
David January 2020

“This property is exceptional.”

Whilst keeping its characteristic form it is modern and clinical. Winchcombe itself is a beautiful town with quirky shops and lots of eateries. We were there for races in Cheltenham and it was within touching distance. The owner Helen sent us a lovely message and made sure our needs for the kids were met even though we hadn't asked.. shes done a fantastic job and I wish her all the success with this venture as she thoroughly deserves it. Definitely would go back.

- David, January 2020
Gillian September 2019

“Wonderful location, spacious and sparkling clean.”

The owner was extremely gracious and helpful and wanted our stay to be a warm, memorable experience experience, which it was.

- Gillian, September 2019
Leigh August 2019

“Postmasters Lodging was a delight.”

It is tastefully decorated to a high standard, well equipped and ideally located. We could not have asked for more. Winchcombe is a lovely town with many amenities and is a great base to explore the Cotswolds. Top marks all round.

- Leigh, August 2019
Terry June 2019

“Excellent position in a lovely Cotswold village.”

The cottage was very nicely converted and to a high standard. Parking was very limited in town but a large car park just 4 minutes walk away for just £1 made things easy..Food shopping directly opposite, and several good pubs/ restaurants nearby

- Terry, June 2019
Clare June 2019

“We were met by the owner (as she saw us coming to the property) and she spent time showing us around the apartment and how everything worked.”

The property was immaculate, the beds were extremely comfortable, location perfect and we had a wonderful stay.

- Clare, June 2019
Colin May 2019

“Great weekend in this lovely spot; it manages high standards with lots of character.”

Situated in the centre of this attractive little town, lively by day, quiet at night.

- Colin, May 2019
Mary May 2019

“The property was everything we hoped it would be, extremely well equipped, comfortable beds and excellent showers.”

The views from the windows at the back of the house are stunning. Winchcombe is a delightful town, it feels unspoilt by tourism yet there are plenty of good restaurants and the parking is so easy. Even though the parking payment machines were out of order and parking was free, there were plenty of spaces in the library car park, a mere 4 minute walk from the Postmasters Lodging. We were able to pull up right outside the property to unpack and pack our luggage. The Coop and Deli opposite we’re able to supply everything we needed on the occasions we cooked in the immaculate kitchen. We have already recommended this property to several of our friends.

- Mary, May 2019

“Lovely, personal welcome from the owners, nice thoughtful touches to make our stay really relaxing and enjoyable.”

Tina March 2019

“We were a group of 6 ladies.”

The location was excellent and the apartment was stunning. An amazing nights sleep. The only tiny criticism we had would definately benefit from an extra chair in the living area and a dishwasher.

- Tina, March 2019
Suzanna February 2019

“Fabulous cottage, really well equipped, a few little things missing for those who want to cook, such as a casserole dish and large serving spoons.”

The amazing oven was difficult to suss out, only to find the manual in the bottom draw!! Beds really comfy and bed linen lovely and soft and the view from the back bedrooms is amazing. Location is wonderful, with lots of walks, pubs and a few little shops to mooch around. For those who like a lie in, don't sleep in the front bedroom! Woken by the paper deliveries at 4ish and food deliveries at 730! We will be back as loved it.

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.
