A cosy little cottage, with everything you need. Great having Vanessa’s home cooked meals right next door to save you cooking!

Andrea United Kingdom

The location is beautiful. The cottage is small, but has everything you need. Vanessa is a great host, providing home made bread, cheese, milk and butter on arrival. The cottage was also spotless. She also offers home made meals, which were great to pop in the oven after a long day walking in the Cotswolds.

Jo United Kingdom

Easy to find, good parking on road, welcome pack was really good, so clean and cosy cottage and more space than expected. Highly recommended. Note the local village store closes at 1pm on a Saturday otherwise a 2 mile drive to local supermarket.

Trevor United Kingdom

The cottage is presented in the perfect location. The property was clean and has everything you could need with no expenses spared. Welcomed with the essentials provided including milk, selection of local cheeses and fresh bread.

Alan United Kingdom

Everything!! The cottage was beautiful, had everything we needed. The location was stunning and the staff were very helpful/amazing! The woodburner was such a great feature. Very cosy cottage, great WiFi, very clean all around, had all the essentials we needed for our stay, amazing shower, comfortable bed and pillows. I can't give any faults.. our stay was absolutely superb. A true gem in the Cotswolds.. Highly recommend Dove Cottage for all. Will be visiting again for sure.. 10/10 for everything!

Andrew United Kingdom

Beautiful cottage. A selection of goodies on arrival added that special touch. The comfiest bed ive ever slept in!

Hayley United Kingdom

Very enjoyable stay. Vanessa was very welcoming and the cottage is lovely.

Robert United Kingdom

Wow wow wow, Dove cottage is a must stay destination, Ness the owner has it spot on with fantastic touches around the lovely cottage, Ness as standard will leave you, tea, coffee, hot chocolate, filter coffee, sugar, milk, cheese home made bread, fruit, flowers, chutney, toiletries, firefighters, kindling, logs, dishwasher tabs all cleaning materials salt pepper etc etc, the kitchen is fully equipped with everything you need to cater or not cater, Ness also offers a homemade frozen meal list with over 20 different dishes to pop in the microwave for lazy home cooked evenings sat in front of the log burner. The upstairs with the white washed beams, very comfortable bed and amazing shower are simply brilliant and great value for money. I haven’t even mentioned the surroundings, village community and breathtaking views. Don’t think twice just book it👍

Iain United Kingdom

We meant to leave a note in the visitors book but couldn’t find a pen, so writing it here instead. Despite Storm Dennis, we had a great time and have no problem in recommending Dove Cottage to anyone. Loved it. Thanks so much. We will be back!

Julia United Kingdom

The cottage is in a quite picturesque village with stunning views and two local pubs within walking distance, once of which serves delicious food. The cottage is cosy and has a lovely log fire, and the hosts provided a welcome tray of teas, coffees and a cheese board. The cottage is equipped with everything you need, and toiletries were provided. The view is beautiful out of the bedroom window and garden area. The cottage is clean and well presented.

  • Hi there, Just wanted to ask - how close can the guest park to the property? e.g. rough number of yards? Also - what kind of heating is there e.g. is it warm? considering the current time of year? I am sure it's fine - just want to check in advance to be sure. Thanks Claire

    Parking is street parking so wherever you can - you can normally get pretty much outside the property - within 100yds maybe, there is under floor heating and a log burner downstairs, and central heating upstairs Vanessa
