This is a lovely property & the quiet, peaceful location with a pleasant walk down into town where there are plenty of things to do, eat and buy suited us well. However you cannot sit up in bed at night due to the sloping roof. We pulled the heavy bed out to change this which is not what one needs to be doing on holiday! That left little space at the end of the bed before one bumped ones head on the other sloping roof! A bit of a problem as we are both tall. It seems that all this could be avoided by having the bed head where the huge wardrobe is & removing some of that wardrobe just leaving some to the left and right of the bed. It's easy to make such a suggestion but maybe there are technical reasons why not. All-in-all we still had a lovely stay.

Silver Birch Lodge is an excellent Cotswold-break base. It is sparklingly clean, has every facility one could need and the hosts are generous and friendly. The village has plenty cafes and restaurants and the cottage easily accessible on foot from the centre, although perhaps not so easily on a dark wintery evening! I would not hesitate to recommend.
