Just back from a lovely break which included 3 nights at artisan cottage. Was in great location for visiting quaint villages of the Cotswolds! The place itself was clean, stylish and finished to a very high standard! We wanted for nothing as all the amenities you could ask for were on hand, the layout took a little getting used to and watch your head on the low door frames but it all added to the character! We will definitely visit again!

What a gorgeous place to stay! It's a Georgian extension to a medieval building, spread over three floors. Kitchen and small toilet on the ground floor, living room and bathroom on the middle floor and master bedroom in a loft conversion. Everything is very clean, and very comfortable. At time of writing it looks as though it was refurbished yesterday. They've done a lovely job of it. Comfy sofas, with lots of reading material and a box of board games provided (I got beaten at chess). The kitchen is really cleverly designed to make a small room feel much larger. Washing machine, dishwasher, oven, hob and microwave are crammed into a set of units - you won't believe that they could fit it all in. We cooked there twice and had an easy time of it. They provide locally produced provisions - we had some porridge, delish jam, milk, eggs etc. The bathroom has a rain type shower and a handheld head, and a nice sized bath. A full set of shampoo, conditioner, bubble bath etc were provided. Just be careful of the low lintel on the bathroom door. It's an old place - they were shorter back then! The bedroom is up in the roof with a vaulted ceiling and exposed beams. The lighting in there (and throughout) is really well designed and makes the best of the space. The bed is big and comfortable. We slept very well. Really good communication on the HomeAway app from Lisa prior to arrival, and the offer of some garden produce for us while we were there. It's about 10-15 mins walk from the rail station, about 90 mins walk from the beautiful village of Lacock, with other walks in the local area along the canal and the river Avon. We didn't have a car, so took a taxi to Castle Coombe but didn't travel any further. We had a wonderful time, and I can thoroughly recommend that you choose Artisan Cottage. It was our second choice, after another place was booked this weekend. We're glad now that the other place was full.
