The most beautiful place that my husband and I have ever had the pleasure of staying. Two minute walk to town. So convenient. Comfy beds with luxurious linens and fluffy towels. Everything that you could possibly need in this quaint cottage. The pictures do not do it justice. And very responsive and sweet hosts. It was such a delight to find scones with clotted cream and chutney, with a darling handwritten card on the dining table. If you are lucky enough to find this available, don’t hesitate. Book it!

We really enjoyed our stay at Well Cottage. The quaint little house is perfectly equipped with everything you need for a relaxing holiday. The location is ideal in the centre of the village, but at the same time completely quiet. Dawn, together with her mother, quickly takes care of all the guests' concerns and emergencies. Highly recommended for a stay in the area, except perhaps for very tall guests who might have problems with the ceiling height. Translated with DeepL.com (free version)

This is a fantastic property in a picturesque, story book town in the Cotswolds. A two minute walk from the town center, the cottage is framed by a stunning rose and lavender garden accentuated by a Jacobean well. The property has as much charm inside as it does out. The large stone fireplace immediately drew our eyes and marked a great conversation area with a comfortable couch and wing chairs. A large table in the back of the room served as "mission control" as we determined our daily activities. The kitchen is well equipped and functional. Loved the Keurig-style espresso/latte maker. The bedrooms upstairs were extremely comfortable with beautiful picturesque windows that not only let in the morning light, but also the sounds of Bourton on the Water — and its stillness at night. Natural light abounded with each window -- upstairs and down -- framing a scenic postcard image of the cabin's surroundings. Our host couldn’t have been more responsive. She returned email messages within five minutes during the planning phase, and when we had a little difficulty with the WiFi (read user error), she was in 10 minutes to help resolve the problem. Most important, she was kind and welcoming and offered a number of sightseeing and dining tips (on the dining front, don't miss Vinitzia, an Italian restaurant in town -- it was sensational). Well Cottage is a perfect place to explore all the Cotswolds have to offer. I am already planning my next, lengthier stay.

ideal cottage and location to village of Bourton on the Water, bus transportation, restaurants and places to visit (walking distance to maze, Bird Land, Model Village). Cottage owner was helpful and attended to our questions quickly. Couldn't have found more perfect accommodations for our two-week stay.

My wife and I certainly enjoyed our time at the Well Cottage. We had chosen it for its great location only about a 2 minute walk to the River in Bourton, and the unique setting it enjoys. dawn was such a wonderful host and was most responsive when we had trouble getting the heat turned on. Bourton is such a great spot itself and was a great location for driving to surrounding villages in the Cotswolds. We would love to return again if we have the opportunity. It is definitely a 10, well beyond the 5 that we were limited to.
