Stone Cottage was exactly what it said on the tin…A bolt hole. A special comfort blanket for a short breakaway.

This cottage was a delight. A very comfortable and stylish stopover in one of the most beautiful villages in the Cotswolds. Arrival was easy. It should be noted the cottage does not have "Stone Cottage" on the outside, just a number. However it is easy to spot from the website photos. We found roadside parking to be easy on the quiet village lanes. Very high quality fixtures and fittings throughout and the heating was quick to warm up whilst we got to grips with the wood burning stove. The kitchen was very well equipped and we enjoyed using the Aga. A good TV and Alexa added to the options for relaxing given the winter weather. The bedrooms were stylish and the ensuite bathrooms a boon, along with the downstairs WC. High quality linens and towels. We'd recommend the Mount Inn which is a short, if steep, walk up from the cottage. The food was good and plentiful, with friendly staff. Small notes for improvement would be a) how to get the best out of the Aga and b) how to use the Qooker tap.

The cottage was cosy and well equipped. Stanton is well placed for walks on the Cotswold Way, interesting villages, good restaurants and pubs nearby.

Stone Cottage was a wonderful place to spend a few days. Sitting on the High Street in one of the Cotswold's most beautiful villages, the cottage is comfortable, with all modern amenities; toasty warm, well-stocked kitchen, great beds and tasteful furnishings. But it also has historic charm to match the many ancient manor houses and cottages of the village. It sits alongside the Cotswolds Way, so there are great walks from the door - up the hill past a great local pub, the Mount Inn, towards Snowshill, or through the iconic village of Stanway towards Winchcombe. I visited in the autumn and the colours of the foliage and sky were incredible. There's a real feeling of freedom and beauty in the area - and for history buffs, check out the 12th century frescoes in the church at Hailes. A great retreat for some countryside peace and tranquility!

Beautiful cottage in a picturesque setting Spotless clean and well equipped Great location to discover the Cotswolds Good pub within 2 minutes walk. Would like to return

Stone Cottage was a beautiful place to stay for our visit to the Cotswolds! The view from the upstairs window was dreamy. The sound of horses walking up and down High Street transported us to another time. Stanton is a quiet, peaceful village in pristine condition with a classic pub at the end the road. The cottage was authentic yet nicely modernized and decorated. The kitchen had everything you need to cook a nice meal. We appreciated having outdoor patio space to enjoy the warm weather we had during our stay. We recommend that Bolthole Retreats provide a few more supplies — like dishwasher pods, garbage bags, dish towels—to help us keep the cottage clean while we’re there (we stayed 8 nights and had only one garbage bag and 3 dishwasher pods). We thoroughly enjoyed our stay and would highly recommend it!

What an exceptionally beautiful home. Now filled with great memories and fun times. The location is excellent and the walks are superb. It's a home I will return to again and again, as the area is held so close to my heart. With family connections, it makes it all the more memorable for me. What a wonderful Bolthole Retreat! Thank you again for providing an opportunity for more beautiful memories to be created, grown & developed; which hold such deep personal meaning.

An amazing beautiful cottage set in a stunning picturesque village so peaceful only the sound of the horses going by. The Mount Inn just down the road was first class the food and service was impeccable and everyone made us feel very welcome. Leaving the cottage was so very hard my partner had to drag me kicking and screaming ha, ha. We'll definitely return to this little piece of paradise. Thank you to the owners David & Laura and Bolthole Retreats. Claire and Dave.

Stone Cottage is situated in the beautiful village Stanton. It is a lovely house in the authentic Cotswold style. The cottage has all the comfort one needs during a holiday.

Perfect cotswold cottage. Brilliantly presented in a gorgeous little village. Away from the usual crowds, but theres great pub nearby and also short walk from Cotswold stay. Lots to do, only a short drive away. Definitely recommend to both cotswold first timers, and those who know the area well.
