Wife and I rented Singer House in Chipping Campden for four weeks this Summer. We were joined by friends and family off and on during our stay. Singer House is right on the main street in the heart of Chipping Campden --fantastic location. GPS gives you the wrong location for the house. It actually fronts to High Street and is about 50 yards from the Lygon Arms Hotel. The house itself is full of character and suited our needs well. We especially enjoyed the garden and the fireplace in the living room. As with any 100+ y.o. building, there are eccentricities and as long as you have your expectations in line, you will really enjoy staying in this house. The kitchen in this house is well kitted, full-size appliances, dishes, utensils and even some spices and cooking oils. When we did run into issues with the house, the owner was very responsive. If we ever return to the Cotswold, and we certainly hope to, can't imagine staying anywhere but Singer House.

Lovely house in very pretty town. Furnished with combination of antique and modern furniture, which works well. Plenty of books, DVDs. Beds very comfortable. The kitchen is equipped with everything possibly needed. The courtyard garden is delightful, very private. Restaurants within easy walking distance, and good local delicatessens. The main bedroom is spacious, a huge Gingko tree sits just outside one window, and the other overlooks the pretty garden of the neighbouring house. There is some noise from the road in the local rush hour, but we didn’t find this a problem. There are many wonderful Cotswold villages nearby, plus NT houses/ gardens etc. Recommend Burford Garden Company (great for a wet day, everything you could possibly not need but want!) and Daylesford. Burford is a stunning small town. Tetbury is within an hour’s drive, great for antique shops.

This beautiful house is perfectly located in the beautiful town of Chipping Campden, walking distance to plenty of places to eat and drink and lovely shops to wander around but not as busy as some of the other Cotswolds towns. We enjoyed a lovely circular walk up to Dover Hill which offers fabulous views. The house itself is very traditional in style, is well stocked with everything needed to be self catering if you choose. A gorgeous little courtyard to sit out in at the back enjoys the morning and afternoon sun. Fiona the host was easy to contact and very helpful.

Gorgeous house and very well-equipped. Steps from all the interesting and useful places in Chipping Campden. The personal welcome was also delightful.

We stayed 3 nights at Singer House and found it to be very comfortable and well placed for exploring Chipping Camden and visiting the wider Cotswolds area. The beds were comfy and the kitchen well equipped. Being April the weather was mixed and quite cold but the house, when the heating was on, was warm and cozy. Little things seemed missing such as a welcome pack. (Usually provided when renting a property in this price range.) There was milk in the fridge but no other basics such as bread, butter, biscuits etc. Also a loo roll holder and shower shelf in the large bedroom en suite would have been useful. The fresh flowers were a nice touch but the silk flowers did seem to be dust magnets. All in all we had a pleasant stay at Singer House and it was a shame we were not able to make use of the lovely outside space due to the weather and time of year.

Singer House is beautiful and different. Lots of room for a family of four plus a dog. The bedding is lovely and beds very comfy. The master bedroom is large and with a bath in it, adds a touch of something a bit different. The house is creaky because it’s an old property, which we loved. We also loved the lounge area with its fire and cosy feel. Perfect for a game of cards. Couldn’t figure out how to use the DVD player though (don’t worry Sky was available)! Fiona the owner was super responsive to a couple of queries. These were fixable with shower heads needing a bit of an extra clean due to limescale build up causing multidirectional showers:) and fires bit too smokey. Only thing Bolthole Retreats needs to do is update its equipment list. There’s no toasty or straighteners as examples. All manageable of course (and Fiona very kindly offered to sort) but we had planned with equipment in mind. Location is fab. Right on the high street. Parking not guaranteed but we always found somewhere close. Would definitely recommend.

We had a wonderful 3 night stay in Singer House. It truly a beautiful property in the perfect position for exploring chipping Camden and the Cotswolds area. The house is a beautiful home and the beds and bedrooms are extremely comfortable. We would live to stay again!

It’s are second stay in Singer House & it is truly wonderful! Highly recommend it! Fabulous accommodation & a fabulous location
