About this cottage rental
The Sudeley Castle Estate includes a collection of charming Cotswold holiday properties, all a few minutes' walk from the centre of historic Winchcombe and Sudeley Castle & Gardens. These include beautifully renovated ancient buildings, such as a paper mill, an old forge and 18th-century workers' cottages, to new cottages built in distinctive Cotswold stone. Sudeley Castle itself features 10 magnificent gardens, each with its own unique design. Surrounded by striking views of the Cotswold countryside, each garden reflects the fascinating 1000-year history of the Castle and includes a Knot Garden, Queen's Garden and Tudor Physic Garden.
Anne Boleyn forms part of a small terrace between Queen Mary and Lord High Admiral and features a well-equipped open plan kitchen/dining area, a spacious living room and an outdoor seating area with countryside views.
Ground Floor
Entrance Hall/Dining Area/Kitchen:
Guests enter Anne Boleyn Cottage through the covered front door into the open plan kitchen/dining area which is light and airy. The pale tiles on the floor and snowy white cupboards, window to the rear and half glazed back door add to the feeling of space. There's a pedestal dining table to seat four and beside the dining area is a handy understairs cupboard housing baby, cleaning, and ironing equipment. The kitchen is well-equipped with everything needed for a self-catering stay including a Nespresso coffee machine for those who love their coffee fix. From the kitchen there is a back door that leads to a small seating area, looking out towards the River Isbourne.
Living Room:
A feature timber-framed doorway leads from the kitchen/dining area into the living room. There are two shallow steps in this spacious room, which features a large two-seater sofa, two comfy arch chairs, a coffee table, occasional tables and a flat-screen TV with DVD player, and French doors out to the seating area.
First Floor

The main bedroom is entered via a large dressing area with a wardrobe and dressing table. Exposed timbers create a division into the bedroom which is down two shallow steps. The double bed has bedside tables on either side and touch-dim bedside lamps, and a pretty window with countryside views.

There are two shallow steps down into the cosy twin bedroom which has two single beds with a shared bedside table between and touch-dim reading lamps and a double wardrobe.

The cottages received high praise for their cleanliness, comfort, well-equipped amenities, excellent locations, and lovely welcoming touches like Christmas decorations and complimentary gifts.

Lovely cottage and setting. Bedrooms and beds comfortable. Kitchen well equipped. Seating in sitting room could be firmer and high but just our preference. Agent very helpful we had to adjust the names of people who were accompanying us a week before, this was done with no fuss. Thank you. There is adequate parking at the rear of the property for 2 cars.
The cottage is very close to the village with plenty of places for a meal out, and food shops for catering ar the cottage.

The cottage was excellent. All the extra little touches, welcome pack, milk, tea and coffee pods were all very welcoming after a journey even down to the mints and torches!
Position was good to see the cotswolds and being able to walk to the castle was a bonus. We would definitely recommend this property and I’m sure we will return.

Lovely spacious cottage, very clean and tidy, ample towels, and toiletries, only downside is that the settee could do with a deep clean.
Very quiet, excellent location with private parking. Few minutes walk to Winchcombe high street, and easy
access across the field to Sudeley Castle

We had a delightful stay at Anne Boleyn’s cottage. We are a family of four with a dog and we found the cottage very comfortable. The location was great as we were only a short walk from Winchcombe High Street and we looked over the sheep field with lambs. Everything we needed was provided in the cottage including torches for late evening dog walks! Sudeley Castle entrance was included with the stay and we found that really interesting.

We had a very enjoyable stay at the cottages over Christmas, with our family and our dog. The accommodation was comfortable, providing everything we needed and the location was excellent. Thank you!

Super cottage, equipped with everything one needs for a perfect break.
A Christmas tree already lit up in the corner of the sitting room, on arrival, was a lovely touch.

We booked a two night stay whilst we were taking part in the archeology dig at Sudely castle and it couldn't have been more perfectly suited. Easy distance from the castle and town centre and fully equipped with everything we might have needed. The shower was just what was needed along with the large and fluffy towels after a day's digging and the cottage warm and cosy to hunker down as the darker nights came in over the weekend.
10.0 / 10.0
Exactly as expected, comfortable rooms and fully working appliances. Short distance from town, and very quiet area.

My 87 year old mother, niece and I stayed in the Anne Boleyn cottage within the Sudeley Castle Cottages. It was absolutely perfect and a great base to see so many village around. It was perfect with the full kitchen facilities to be able to cook meals when we wanted to. The shops are only a 5 min walk away with pubs, cafe’s and food shops for supplies. We even joined the local community for a church service at St Peter’s and were warmly welcomed. The cottage had everything we needed and would highly recommend staying here.
10.0 / 10.0
What a wonderful place to stay! The cottage was just what we needed in order to see Winchcombe and it's nearby villages. We're particularly impressed by Winchcombe as it was a place we held so dear in our hearts, having visited it not so long ago. Family have lived there and we wanted to return to see it all again.
We love how the cottage allows you to enter the Castle grounds and you can wander off into the fields nearby, such as walks along the Isbourne River. Lots of memories and lots of fun, we will return next year. Thank you to the housekeepers who keep these cottages in pristine condition.

High quality accommodation in excellent location
Our third visit with Bolthole Retreats. Despite, on this occasion, being woken each morning by nearby construction work, we enjoyed staying at the Anne Boleyn cottage which had everything we needed. We also found Winchcombe to be a great place to stay with a good selection of eateries and shops. We’re already planning another return visit

Charming little cottage in a courtyard setting
This is a charming, clean, comfortable and well appointed little cottage set in the Sudeley Castle Country Cottages courtyard.
The location is quiet and it is very near to Winchcombe- pubs, restaurants and provisions just a walk to the high street. You don’t feel like you are in a town though as the cottage is in a small valley on the edge of the Sudeley estate. To have free entrance to the castle was brilliant and we spent two memorable days there. It is a place the is very tranquil and the views are beautiful- one of the best places we have ever visited. It is also a good base for exploring a little further afield- Winchcombe and it’s meteorite and St. Peter’s Church, Hailes Abbey, Stanway Fountain, Snowshill Manor, Seizencote, Kiftsgate Court Gardens and Hidcote gardens. I can highly recommend Bolthole Retreats as a company.

Perfect!
Beautiful clean and modern cottage within a few minutes walk of the town.
Well equipped, comfy beds and great shower.
Set in a really pretty courtyard and close to many walks
Greeted with a bottle of bubbly for my husbands 50th which was a really lovely touch, thank you!
Will certainly recommend and hopefully be back again.

Anne Boleyn cottage
The cottage is in a picturesque location next to Sudeley castle with country walks nearby The cottage is well equipped and warm and comfortable. It was spotlessly clean and provided a welcome pack as well as toiletries. The location is ideal for exploring the Cotswolds and also convenient for a short walk up hill into Winchcombe with plenty of places to eat and shop

Fabulous!
This was a fabulous cottage within a group of cottages in a courtyard setting. The cottage was spaceous, very clean and has everything that you could possibly need - and is just a few minutes walk into the centre of beautiful Winchcombe. The cottage and the whole are is really dog friendly and we can't wait to return - just brilliant!

Lovely setting and cottage perfect
Cottage and amenities were excellent. very clean and lots of lovely extra touches with coffee pods and tea/coffee starter pack etc in the kitchen.
Felt the booking experience could have been a lot better as when we called to get info the person we spoke to really couldn't give us the pricing until we called back with which cottage we had decided on. Then she said approx price and when we then booked it was another price £60 more and then when we got the invoice we saw another £70 added for the cleaning! We were going to a wedding in the castle so we had little choice by then and were very satisfied with the actual cottage and setting. Just unhappy about the misleading pricing.

Lovely stay in The Cotswolds
The cottage was in a perfect location. Despite being under 5 minutes from the town centre, (the Studeley Castle Cottages were back from the road in a small complex) it was very quiet. We were a 5 - 10 minute walk from the castle which was ideal.

Good but could be better
Potentially a really lovely cottage but let down by defects such as uncomfortable sagging seating in the lounge, some lack of maintenance (note of these left at property), and missing instructions for equipment. Location is excellent.
When we arrived some lights had been left on as a welcome gesture. This is a pleasant idea but such actions do not fit in with the current concern over climate change.

Lovely stay
Lovely cottage. Winchcombe is a good base to explore Cotswolds, Oxford, Stratford upon Avon.
A couple of minor issues were sorted extremely quickly

Lovely accommodation, set in a great location
As a family of 4, plus 2 dogs, the accommodation was everything we could wish for.
Set in a lovely village, which is well worth exploring, the cottage was really well equipped with all modern facilities and premium appliances
Parking was just at the back, behind the small patio area.
The beds very very comfortable with all bedding and towels provided
The shower was great, plenty of storage in the bedrooms and full central heating for when it got chilly
My only niggle was the vacuum which was useless and no mop for the floors
Are already looking to visit again in October.

Lovely area
Found the info for access a bit difficult , easy when you know how. Cottage was of a good size and clean. Although a bit basic considering what it cost for 3 nights. A bonus to get into the castle though.

Ideal for a cosy isolated Christmas!
Arrived late in the day and was welcomed by a beautifully decorated Christmas tree, a bottle of fizz and a box of chocs. Very unexpected. The tree especially made such a different to our short, but sweet Christmas. Very well equipped kitchen. Plenty of towels, Huge shower - no bath. Comfortable and cosy bedrooms. My husband had to work during our visit so the study area in the main bedroom was brilliant. Plenty of sockets in all the right places. Good wifi.
Plenty of parking and excellent location for walking and all the local shops (when allowed)!
Staff regularly around for any problems.

A very clean and tidy cottage, has everything you could possibly need for a lovely stay
Such a beautiful cottage in a lovely location, the only niggle would be the TV signal wasn't the best and we were limited to two channels but this didn't put us off the cottage, we'll definitely be re-booking.

Lovely Cottage, perfect location
Anne Boleyn cottage is perfectly located in Winchcombe with plenty of pubs and restaurants within walking distance. Lovely touches like a dog bowl and towel. The cottage was immaculately clean and had everything you would need and more. Only thing I would change is a larger double bed in the master bedroom. Will definitely be back.

A perfect getaway
We really enjoyed our stay at Anne Boleyn. This was our fourth stay at one of the cottages over the past few years. The house was clean and comfortable and the kitchen was very well equipped. The shower was lovely too. Our only (minor) issue was that we couldn’t get the smart functions of the TV to work and it was inferred in the cottage information book that this would be possible. We called the office a few times and left a message but didn’t hear back. Otherwise it was a perfect stay.
Many thanks

Beautiful comfortable cottage in excellent location
What a beautiful cottage! The kitchen is brand new and has everything you need. There is a lovely little enclosed courtyard with easy access from kitchen or lounge area. The lounge was comfortable and cosy. The bedrooms were spacious and warm and beds were comfortable. The cottage was spotlessly clean throughout. We loved this place! Perfect for a few days away. The location is excellent, countryside and town both a very short walk away. We’d like to stay again.

The cleanliness of the cottage was excellent. Everything you need for a great stay. Wi-fi never let us down. Shower worked like a power shower. Comfortable pillows and bed. Fresh white bed linen and towels. Set in a great location with lots of walks and within easy walking distance of the village, shops and pubs.

Lovely comfortable cottage in a perfect location for walking.
We had a lovely relaxing stay in Anne Boleyn cottage. A real Wow! Moment as we turned into the lovey courtyard. The cottage was really well cleaned which was reassuring in these strange times and very comfortable inside.
The location is excellent with many good walks straight from your doorstep and good pubs and restaurants in Winchcombe.

2020 holiday
Have stayed at Sudley Castle cottages previously. Would thoroughly recommend to anyone. Absolutely spotless and they are equipped with everything you'll need for a great holiday. Winchcombe is a quiet but great base to explore the surrounding area. Will be visiting again

Absolutely fantastic
We had the most warm welcome by a wonderful lady that could not have made us feel anymore at home. The cottage was spotless and very comfortable and was immaculately presented. I would highly recommend this location and group of cottages.

Relaxed
We did have a little difficulty finding where the property was located, and there wasn’t anyone around to help us to get in. Apparently we should have been given a code, but hadn’t received it.
However, this was the only down side to this wonderful little cottage, very clean, with the most comfortable of beds. It had everything that we could have needed.
Very good parking area. This was important to me as we had 2 cars due to travelling from different locations to meet up.
Free entry to Sudeley Castle was an added bonus!
I would definitely recommend anyone to come and stay in one of these beautiful cottages in a very beautiful part of the country!

Country Cottage
Sweet cottage. When we visited the roses out front were in full bloom. Great location, walking to everything in town and price includes entry to Sudley Castle and gardens. Our one suggestion would be putting up a rack or shelf in the shower to place soap/shampoo on, otherwise very awkward in there.

Bolthole Cottages.
Everything was fine, no real complaints, minor irritations really. A headboard on the bed would have been nice as the pillows kept 'tucking' down the back of the bed. There was no full length mirror, I was going to a wedding and appearances count. I found the reminders about leaving the place in good condition read in a rather regimented way and it appeared as if the housekeepers needs were in fact more important than our stay. I was however very satisfied.
8.0 / 10.0
Nice stay
Overall, this is a lovely cottage and we'd definitely book again. The documentation/information provided in the Welcome Pack does need a couple of corrections:
(1) Anne Boleyn cottage is not semi detached, it's terraced
(2) The dog friendly cottage pack says free entry into Sudeley Castle which really is very close by. However, the information failed to mention that despite booking a dog friendly cottage, you can't actually use the free entry and take your dog into the gardens of the castle. Dogs are not allowed.
The small garden area at the back of the cottage is a great space but needs a gate. There is a suitable gap but no gate. This would have made our stay a lot easier as the outside space would have been dog safe. Also, the dog/child gate isn't really fit for purpose, especially as dogs are not allowed upstairs.
The location is really good. In one direction is the castle and in the other, the shops/high street of Winchcombe. All the usual facilities within the cottage were exactly what we needed. It really was a comfortable, clean and pleasant place to stay. Easy access to Cheltenham and The Cotswolds.

Such a lovely short break
My friends and I booked this cottage ( and a neighbouring property) to attend Party at the Castle - a music event at Sudeley Castle. And we are so pleased that we did! A perfect location within walking distance of the Castle and Winchcombe village! Clean, cosy, plenty of room for us all, great shower and a kitchen equipped with all you could want (except a non stick frying pan!).
We had such fun.
