About this cottage rental

A stone's throw from the centre of Blockley, grade II listed Red Lion Cottage sits above the quiet high street. Its golden Cotswold stone exterior welcomes you in to relax and unwind in this unspoilt part of the country.

You step into the open-plan living/dining room and find yourselves instantly easing into the holiday spirit. Finished with a country cottage style you can put your feet up in front of the woodburner which sits in an impressive stone inglenook. The dining area here is perfect for family meals after a busy day out and about. At the rear of the cottage the kitchen is a surprise with its double-height ceiling and open stone walls adding character to this historic building. With two comfortable double bedrooms and two bathrooms, one of which has a freestanding slipper bath, this cottage is a wonderfully romantic retreat for couples.

From the kitchen you can take drinks out onto the hidden terrace. This secluded spot catches the sun making it a lovely place to enjoy an evening chat or a morning cup of coffee. With the charms of Blockley on your doorstep you don't need to venture too far. Walking trails lead you out into the countryside, you can visit the local pubs or just spend time together at Red Lion Cottage. If you are heading out for the day, Broadway, Moreton-in-Marsh and Chipping Campden are excellent choices and there are a host of attractions nearby.

Ground Floor

Living/Dining Room:
This classically styled open-plan living area comfortably fits four guests. The sitting area has two sofas sitting four in total in front of the wood-burning stove which is set in an inglenook fireplace beneath a large wooden beam. There is a Smart TV so you won't miss out on your favourite programmes or you can curl up with a good book. Above you are painted white beams and there are two window seats looking out to the neighbouring Cotswold stone buildings.

The dining area seats four around a wooden table with plenty of space to set the table for lavish meals.

Kitchen:
At the rear of the cottage the kitchen has a double-height ceiling stretching above you. You can see the Cotswold stone that the building has been made from making this a wonderfully unique room. It is fully equipped with an oven/hob, fridge with a freezer compartment, slimline dishwasher and the expected small appliances. Stone steps lead up to the external terrace from here.

Shower Room:
The ground-floor shower room is a handy addition with a shower, WC and sink. Decorated in bright Orla Kiely wallpaper your morning shower will be a rejuvenating experience.

First Floor

Bedroom One:
The master bedroom is a light and bright room with a comfortable king-size bed at its centre. There are two bedside tables with lamps, a window seat and built-in wardrobes.

Bedroom Two:
This smaller double bedroom is equally as comfortable. The bed is only accessible from one side where there is a bedside table and window seat. There is storage space in a narrow chest of drawers.

Bathroom:
The family bathroom has a touch of elegance with a freestanding slipper bath where you can soak away for hours. There is also a WC and sink.

Outside
From the steps in the kitchen you are taken up to an external door which opens to the rear terrace. Sitting behind the cottage it is a secluded area which catches the sun. Enjoy a morning cup of coffee or a romantic glass of wine together in the evening.

Lovely village but parking impossible! Two pubs neither food for food but nearest nice for drink. Beds ok but a bit soft, biggest not a king size as advertised, second bedroom tiny no proper hanging space. Cottage nicely furnished but very difficult stairs with grab rails and poor outside space, badly maintained with very steep stairs up to it. Not value for money as too many things were a problem or missing , e.g. half size kettle, one cup caffe tier, mini freezer compartment iced up . Would not recommend booking with Bolthole Retreats as very unhelpful.

The Cottage is in a quintessential village, perhaps more remembered for being the location of the filming of Father Brown, than it’s history as one of the many mill villages. Streets are very narrow, parking is difficult to find and there are no street numbers! The Red Lion Cottage is a wonderfully converted building that makes the best use of the space. The beds are comfortable and the kitchen fully stocked. It would have been nice to have a Nespresso machine, something other Bolthole Retreat locations have. There are many amazing country walks directly from the Village, which is also very central for touring other unique Cotswolds villages. The local pub is well run by Sri Lankans serving British and ethnic dishes. There is also a very good Village Hub coffee shop serving coffee and food all day.

Lovely stay, a great location and a clean warm , welcoming house . A small point, the back door did not open to access the bin and there were no clear instructions for discarding rubbish, which I think could be made clearer for future guests . Thank you
