The Stow Horse Fair is held twice a year, typically on the Thursday closest to 12th May and the Thursday closest to 24th October, however, we would recommend checking the exact date ahead of placing your booking. This is a traditional fair for gypsies and travelling people to meet up and trade which dates back to 1476 when its Charter was granted. Stow is very busy for a day or two before and after each fair, and a number of shops, pubs and restaurants are closed. Whilst many visitors enjoy the colour and vibrancy associated with the fairs, other visitors prefer to avoid Stow on these dates

We had a fabulous few days at Huntington Court in the heart of Stow on the Wold. The property is exactly as described and very well appointed. It had everything we need and was very comfortable. The hosts were helpful and responsive.

Beautiful and charming cottage. Great location to everything downtown Stow.

Excellent base for Longborough Opera and for exploring the Cotswolds in general. Well equipped, and relatively quiet for such a central location. Suggested improvements:
- Please provide a plastic washing-up bowl. With just 3 persons, it was pointless wasting energy and water by using the dishwasher;
- Please provide a tea-cosy. Luckily, we brought our own;
- Please check battery status in all remote controls. We were unable to open the velux windows remotely during the hottest spell of 2024 so far (even after replacing the batteries), and didn't wish to forcibly open them in case we caused damage! Luckily, StayCotswold contacted Maintenance, and he was able to resolve the situation (forcible opening!);
- There is damp in the Master Bedroom en-suite between the right hand basin and the base of the bath - needs keeping an eye on....
Regarding information for guests, we visited quite a few establishments in Stow for food and beverages:
- Breakfast - we would recommend Lucy's (so friendly; good homemade food) and The Cotswold Farm (the best scrambled eggs!);
- Coffee - Hackett's was the best of 3 places tried!
- Dinner - The Porch House and The Old Butchers served excellent food in the evening.
- Real ale (our weakness!) - Queen's Head.

I recently stayed here with my husband and two teenage children and we loved it! It’s a great size, beautifully decorated, and right in the middle of town but tucked back. We could walk to any number of bakeries, restaurants, shops, a farmers market within minutes. I highly recommend this house to couples/ small families!
5.0
Fantastic property, super stylish and very comfortable. Lovely and quiet despite being off the main road through Stow. A perfect location for mooching around Stow’s lovely shops. Don’t miss out on the excellent bargains in Stow’s charity shops - really good quality stuff! The Stag’s bar was perfect for a few hours of cribbage with G&T’s whilst the rain came down. The Hive was a fabulous place for breakfast. Wouldn’t hesitate to return or recommend.

We loved everything about this apartment. It is clean and comfortable, stylishly decorated and well located for exploring the Cotswolds. The booking process is easy, the instructions are clear and make checking in and out a breeze, and the eggs, bread milk, juice and butter that were left for us was a very thoughtful touch. And the bath towels are big and soft :) Thanks for a wonderful stay!

We had an excellent stay at Gisleburtus house! Was a great, central location to explore the Cotswolds- great to be in the middle of Stow and be able to walk to shopping, meals, etc - and easy access to some great hikes and other villages as well! The flat was well appointed, spacious, modern, and clean while also having Cotswolds charm. We would stay again in a heartbeat!

Gisleburtus House was a pleasure to stay in over mine & our son’s birthday weekend! It was spotlessly clean, well equipped and lived up to our expectations from the photos on the website. The location is perfect for walking around Stow and a short drive out to other beautiful locations in the Cotswolds. We would totally recommend a stay here.

Fantastic accommodation, great location. It definitely had the WOW factor with some nice features. Would highly recommend.
5.0
The apartment was stunning. As we opened the door we were amazed by the shear size of the property and beautiful decor throughout. We were sceptical about staying in an Apartment rather than the traditional chocolate box Cottage, although I can definitely say this place did not disappoint! Without doubt we will definitely return.

We had a fabulous week at Giselburtus House. Perfectly located in the centre of Stow, easy private parking was a huge bonus. The house was immaculate and beautifully decorated. Everything we could have needed was provided and the bread, milk, butter and eggs were a welcome surprise. Would not hesitate to stay here again, it was amazing.
5.0
The perfect hideaway in Stow - easy to walk to everything but quiet location and great to have a parking spot right out front! We loved our stay and that the kitchen was stocked with a few essentials, which fed us breakfast multiple mornings!

Excellent Stay at Huntington Courtyard. Very well presented and comfortable. We will definitely return. Many Thanks

What a truly wonderful apartment. Located in the heart of the town, just a short stroll around the corner to the main square. A very private location with quiet neighbours who were very friendly. The added advantage of an allocated parking space. I have a very large car, and in the past have struggled with parking at some other stays. This was not an issue at Huntingdon Courtyard. The kitchen was very well equipped for eating in, with everything you need, top quality items and appliances. Comfortable beds with super bedding made for a good nights sleep. The owner has obviously invested a lot on the fixtures and fittings, a very stylish interior. Located very close to the church therefore you can here the bells. That is the only minor negative observation from a wonderful stay.
