About this cottage rental

Arriving in Stanton you will be awed by the beautiful properties and unspoilt landscapes. Each lane is a display of the finest Cotswold stone cottages and thatched buildings, keep an eye out for the extra details added to some of their rooftops. Stone Cottage is set on the high street, just down the road from the well-renowned Mount Inn which offers spectacular views across the village and beyond.

You enter the cottage into the living room which houses the large inglenook fireplace and wood burner which when lit fills the room with its warmth and comforting crackle. This room has stone flooring, mullioned windows and wooden beams above reminding you of the building's history and adding lovely features. The bespoke kitchen at the rear of the cottage has a large skylight making this a fantastic place to prepare evening meals at the traditional AGA. Serving at the spacious dining table you have a contemporary space to enjoy time together over meals and drinks. At the far end is a cloakroom and stable door out to the rear entrance.

Spread over three floors with a bedroom on the first and second, each has its own privacy and the added benefit of an en-suite. The bedrooms are incredibly comfortable, and you are sure to get an undisturbed night's sleep in this rural village. Luxurious bedding and added blankets give that extra special touch to elevate your stay. The master bedroom has an en-suite bathroom with a freestanding bath waiting to be filled with bubbles to whisk you away to tranquillity.

Outside is a wooden table and chairs for dining al fresco surrounded by lavender and rose beds adding a delicate fragrance when in bloom. You will see horses passing by from the nearby stables and walkers heading off along the Cotswold Way which winds through the village. On-street parking makes it easy to get going in the morning to explore Broadway, Evesham and beyond to Stratford-upon-Avon and Cheltenham.

The stone cottage was the perfect blend of old world charm with modern conveniences The bathrooms were spotless and the kitchen well equipped. The Mount Inn was walkable and had great food. The Cotswolds Trail runs directly behind the Inn and was a great place for a hike.

10am check out is a bit early for a 2 night stay especially if nobody else arriving that day. No silver foil provided for the oven/grill. Otherwise perfect place in a gorgeous village.

Thoroughly enjoyable stay at the Stone Cottage in Stanton. Well appointed accommodation in an idyllic location. A period cottage with some period features, including squeaky staircase! Many pubs locally, most of which serving good value meals.

Stone Cottage is set in one of the most beautiful villages I've ever seen... The cottage itself is beautiful. However, be warned if your tall you might hit your head going up the stairs... There is quite a lot of wear and tear in the cottage, especially the walls/cracks etc. The cottage is comfortable, however could be finished to a higher standard for the cost per night.

The cottage is charming and beautiful although not appropriate for anyone with a mobility issue because of the steep and narrow stairs. The village is also charming and the Mount Inn is wonderful. We rent apartments and houses all over the world and are accustomed to the following being provided: two towels per person, at least one extra roll of toilet paper and paper towels, a little bit of laundry detergent, bathroom amenities such as shower/bath gel and 24/7 hot water and heat. None of these things are provided. The owners could charge just a bit more and provide these items which would make this rental much more convenient to travelers.

The village of Stanton is beautiful, we would love to revisit and for a longer period, to enjoy the local walking and of course the ‘pub’ The cottage itself is exceptional, in so many ways, and offers everything that we were hoping for on our trip to what is probably our favourite area to spend time. My only problem relating to comfort was the very hard pillows, unfortunately I found these too uncomfortable and we went out to buy ones we could use. We will certainly come to Stone Cottage again
