We really enjoyed staying at Rose Cottage. It’s the first time we have stayed in a thatched cottage and it was a very enjoyable experience. We have been to the Cotswold area many times as our daughter lives in the area and there is always things to do and see. The Fleece Inn close by is a great place for a meal and a drink. Would definitely recommend staying there and any other Bolthole property as we have also stayed at Whippet Cottage in the same village.

Lovely cottage in beautiful location quite expensive so would extend to a week to have better value next time

Had a great stay. Proximity of pub was a great bonus so we didn’t have to drive to get an evening meal.

Beautiful cottage in a perfect location. The local pub was great too! Welcome treat of cake was very much appreciated

Easy access to Cotswold's towns and villages, handy local amenities in Bretforton with a fabulous Nation Trust owned pub. Superb location, great cottage with lots of attention to detail. Cannot recommend highly enough

The house is beautiful and was perfect for our stay. Beautiful landscaping and house had everything we needed. We loved having coffee in the morning and a glass of wine in the evening in the garden, private and quiet. The Fleece Inn (600 years old!!) is only a few houses away and was always lively—although we never heard noise at the house. We spent each of our nights there listening to traditional music and talking with locals and others on holiday. A truck serving wood-fired pizza Th-Sa was fantastic. Little antique store across the parking lot, so sweet. If we are in the Cotswald again we hope we can stay at the Rose Cottage!

The cottage is very traditional, cosy and well equipped. We enjoyed the living room and open fire very much, and also the dining room / table which was great for games. The location is also ideal - we took a very nice long walk directly from the front door on one day and on another made the short drive into Broadway which is a lovely town and again offers excellent walks. The Fleece Inn virtually next door is a belter (and we were not disturbed by noise from it - in fact, the cottage is very peaceful). The warning about low beams should be heeded - not just beams but in some parts the ceilings in the bedrooms upstairs are low and are an inconvenience to six footers (but would not have stopped us booking if we'd known). We would also ask that the recycling instructions are made clearer - we were very confused. Overall, though, this is exactly the sort of cottage you should be looking for if you want a cosy winter retreat for a few days. Recommended.

We are 4 friends who travelled from London and Derbyshire to stay at Rose Cottage. Everything was provided for a comfortable stay and we loved the Fleece as well as the village. We went to Stratford and Broadway. Had a fantastic time.

We had such a fabulous time staying at Rose Cottage over New Years. There were 4 of us and we enjoyed the fire and the surrounding area and would love to go back!

The cottage was lovely as was the village. Everything was spotless we were a group of 4 adults and were surprised no refills for the toilet rolls but that was the only downside. Almost next door is The Fleece Pub - food was excellent. Would definitely return to this beautiful cottage.

Gorgeous cottage, really comfortable and nicely furnished. The beds were really comfortable and the bed linen was lovely.

The cottage was lovely in almost every way and set in such a pretty village. A minor point to make it perfect would be clearer instructions for the heating and the coffee machine. I’m sure owners would have helped had we called them, but we didn’t want to interrupt our break doing this. Finally, would recommend ear plugs for light sleepers in the two bedrooms nearest the church as the bells strike through the night!

We enjoyed the Rose cottage, great location to explore Cotswold. Thanks for letting us to stay in your beautiful place.

Rose Cottage is as idyllic and quirky as the pictures suggest. We had a delightful stay; the cottage was clean, and well equipped. The welcome pack very much appreciated. Nothing was too much trouble, including the provision of fans in anticipation of the mid July record breaking heatwave. Lovely walks from the door, splendid Community shop a short walk away for the basics, good food at the Fleece Inn. Parking generally not a problem, just a bit tight when we arrived due to a wedding at the Church across the road. Very peaceful location, just the church bells chiming the hour as village life passes your door. Very happy to recommend!

If total relax, chirping of the birds and a setting with astonishing colourful surroundings and a dreamlike cottage is what you want, cosy Rose Cottage is the ideal place. An added value the historic and welcoming English pub just a few metres a way and the tiny and delightful St Leonard Church just accross the road. Excellent the support provided by Bolthole Agency given we live abroad and are little acquainted with uk burocracy.

Bretforton is a beautiful village (and a great base for exploring nearby towns) and the cottage was stunning: everything you could want, from cozy rooms, to a well-equipped kitchen (with provisions for breakfast!), and a wonderful shower (and tub). It was the perfect blend of historic charm and modern comfort.

We had a lovely weekend in this delightful cottage. It’s as cosy as it looks on the pictures. The village is beautiful and the church and pub are worth a visit. The cottage was extremely clean and warm and welcoming.
