This is our second trip at Brock Cottage with extended family. It is perfect for all ages. The huge living area looks out into the garden so is very safe for children to play while adults look on. It is an original, eclectic and spacious house with comfortable bedrooms and extremely well equipped. It is in a very isolated location in a nature reserve so is quiet and all you can hear are the birds. A very unique and lovely place

Suitable for large family, garden excellent for the children to play in.
Fun for children to find the bedrooms hidden behind the cupboard doors
Only negative comment. The final part of the dirt track proved quite stressful,
But all in all a lovely property to spend a lovely family weekend

Brock Cottage was a fabulous house for our weekend extended family gathering. The house is well equipped and full of interesting art and objects, it is an eclectic, creative space, wonderfully unique and interesting. It is large enough with numerous living spaces for everyone to have enough space. The main living space has loads of light and was a lovely room to sit and spend time. The track is quite potholed but fine taking it slow. The children particularly enjoyed the garden with the trampoline and swing. Many thanks.

We stayed here for a long weekend as an annual 'old school friends' get together and it was the perfect accommodation for us. There were 8 of us and usually we have to bunk in together sharing rooms and beds and never really sleep that well, but there were such a variety of spaces that we nearly managed a room each here. It did take us about 20 mins, and several tours around the house to find the final 3 bedrooms!! The house is wonderfully colourful and comfortable, has an incredibly well equipped kitchen, and there were plenty of logs and kindling provided to keep us cosy. Many similar properties we've stayed in, or looked at while shortlisting, just don't have the communal seating space to sit all 8 comfortably, but there was bags of space here with 3 huge sofas in the open plan area plus 2 comfy chairs, and even more in the sitting room and annex which we didn't even use. The beds were all, by all accounts, very comfortable - mine certainly was - with lovely duvets and pillows. There was plenty of hot water and powerful showers.
We did a lovely, if VERY muddy, walk around the nature reserve and to the farm shop and cafe at Bruern on Saturday for some very good cake and coffees, and bread, cheese and some other groceries to take back to the house. We also had a delicious dinner at the Kings Head Inn at Bledington, and Sunday lunch at The Sheep in Stow-on-the-Wold. All highly recommended.
We had visits from Muntjac deer in the garden which was wonderful, and the best night's sky viewing that I've had in the UK - no light pollution and a clear frosty night provided perfect conditions.
One thing to note is the very remote location (although that also adds to its charm) - I was expecting it to be remote, but the track to the house was a little rougher and longer than perhaps I'd anticipated and you need to factor that in if you have a low/old car, and I as rather glad we took some food with us for the Friday night after our drive there. It makes you slightly more reluctant to travel back and forth too much and it was much further to the pub than I'd anticipated from the description - we ended up driving rather than walking which we'd planned as the footpath was too muddy and not that pleasant to walk along the roadway. But as I said, not necessarily a negative, just something to be aware of.
Great communication with the owner, and they very kindly posted back some jewellery that had been left behind. Highly recommend Brock Cottage for a very pleasant stay with family or friends.

We had the best big family Christmas at brock cottage - plenty of space for everyone, an extremely well stocked kitchen and such comfortable spaces to spend time as a family. It was the perfect balance of spacious and cosy. We loved the unique vibe and the location is ideal for exploring either on foot or in short drives to all the cotswold must-see spots. We’d definitely go again, thank you!

Excellent property, querky and lots of space for a group to spread out. Very helpful host who responded rapidly to any queries.
Be aware of it being very rural and not everyone would be able to access as the drive in involves dirt tracks and potholes.

Set in a very rural location Brock Cottage was perfect for our Family weekend. Tee cottage is large and rambling with memorable decoration. With 8 adults plus 5 children ages 1 to 5 there was plenty of space for everyone. We were very lucky with the weather as the garden was a perfect place to have outdoor fun.
Brock Cottage was well equipped with everything we needed.

Long weekend for 12 including 6 kids under 11. A great stay in an amazing and quirky cottage. Loads of room for everyone to have space and yet get together for meals and socialising. Kids loved the huge garden with woods and a stream, building dens and bridges. Would come back in a heartbeat.

A beautiful quirky house …lots of wonderful art around. We liked most that the kitchen, dining, sitting area is all in one big room with patio doors all down one side on to the large, simple garden full of wildlife.. It gave a wonderful atmosphere both when the sun was shining and also when it was pouring down with rain. The house is beautifully put together with all you need …we were 80 year old and 4 year olds and lots of ages in between. Kitchen well equipped and all the beds comfortable with nice linen.

A spacious bohemian house which was very well appointed. There was a lovely efficient log burner in the open plan kitchen/dining/sitting area and a generous supply of logs. The beds were very comfortable with good quality bedding. The house is in a perfect position for walkers as The Oxfordshire Way starts at the end of the drive. A perfect place for adults and children.

location and facilities are great for a group with young children. plenty of space for all those who visited.
the only downside is the place was very dusty/dirty when we arrived. looked like the only things cleaned were the bedding and bathrooms which is a small let down on, what is otherwise, a great place to stay

Renting this property was a joy. The host is very responsive and helpful, and their property is a delight. Lovely setting (on a nature reserve), charming house with wonderful original artwork throughout the house. It's a great place to get away to with family and/or friends.
What can I say about the Cotswolds - is there be a better slice of England? Overall, a lovely place to holiday in. Highly recommended!

A truly memorable weekend in a vibrant and eclectic, welcoming home environment
We had a wonderful weekend and Brock Cottage. It's really tucked away surrounded by woods and countryside. The lane is long and bumpy, but the directions were good and everyone arrived safely. Each room is unique in a very vibrant and creative style. Brock Cottage has a homely feel and makes a great retreat for family and friends to hang out. The beds and mattresses were great with beautiful sheets and pillowcases and throws. Brock Cottage has everything you need for a great weekend with family and friends. We enjoyed local walks and using the BBQ.

Great house for a family
We really enjoyed our stay at Brock Cottage. Owners were very accomodating, the space was great and an amazing big outside space with lots of kids play areas. We stayed for a family reunion, rooms were good and we liked the mix of all the decorations! Location wise there’s lots of places nearby you can drive too or walks in the area.

Excellent cottage home
The cottage houses a friends get together with kids. The cottage had lots of facilities making the stay very comfortable. The directions to the cottage was great as it is hard to find. Provide good information about the amenities and surroundings x

A magic Christmas stay
This was a wonderfully quirky property with all sorts of enchanting features and furnishings. Although mid-winter, its location in the middle of woodland provided a peaceful and interesting time for adults and children alike. We appreciated the provision of a Christmas tree in the living area.

Idyllic, spacious and perfect for families
A perfect bolt hole for a get together with family and friends. Idyllic, relaxed, spacious and full of quirky art, books, nooks and places to sit and enjoy being in nature. It was wonderful. The children absolutely loved all of the garden toys, the rope swings, trampoline, dens, stream and the whole experience, as did we. We will absolutely be back!

Lovely family getaway
We loved the quirky, spacious, well equipped house. Beautiful, individual decor. Very private. Idyllic walks from the house. Perfect for our family get together. If we had to pick a negative I would say maybe the lane leading to the house - long and tricky to negotiate. Maybe some blinds in the annex would help if using that space for sleeping. All in all a fabulous holiday though, thank you.

Perfect stay!
This house was stunning, so characterful and brilliantly quirky!
We had a great time staying here and loved the remoteness and energy of the space! Would definitely love to come back - a few of the guests are already rebooking!

Children friendly cottage
We really enjoyed our stay at Brock Cottage, it is in a great location and the property had lots of space. We spent most of the time in the garden which is fantastic for children! There were ample toys and books for children. The bedrooms had very comfortable beds and you couldn’t hear noise coming from other rooms when sleeping. One area to improve would be the level of cleanliness - it felt like the place needed a more thorough clean, one that wouldn’t be achieve-able in the time given to a check out clean.

A great stay
A fantastic house to get together with old university friends now we are all 60. Every one of us enjoyed the quirky and very interesting house which offered all the facilities we needed including a spacious kitchen/ living area which opened onto a private garden full of spring flowers. We would all love to return.
The owner was spot on too.

Great Cotswolds stay
Brilliant property for kids, who loved both the inside and the garden. Lots of room and lots to do locally.

Gorgeous house
Stunning space, beautifully decorates and so homely. Amazing huge cooking and eating space and rooms for large family or friends or kids to expand into.
A little hard to find - better signage would help when arriving in the dark. But that was our only complaint - it’s a lush house.
Great customer service from Adam.

Wonderful getaway
We loved this house. Perfect place to bring friends together for a wonderful weekend away. The house had everything we needed and was fully equipped for all the guests it can house. Would recommend this to anyone and some of our friends have even recommended it to others already.
The only small difficulty is finding the house when you arrive and getting taxi drivers who were happy to fetch us. However, it was lovely being secluded and having our own space in the countryside.
Sainsbury’s deliver though - which is great for all your grocery needs!

Lovely getaway
We enjoyed our stay but all four families plus Sainsburys had difficulty finding the property. The information at the property advised putting in one postcode into Satnavs, then when people arrived at that postcode, putting another postcode into the Satnav. This information should be provided on the website instead of only at the property.
My husband and I went by train. We relied on neighbours to get us there. We had to followed a direction that said 'Foxholes only'. When we reached signs for Brock Cottage, they were very small and dark. We arrived in daytime so saw them. One of our families was arriving at night, so we put out additional signing for them.

Family getaway
This is a great property for a large group with plenty of room for the kids to run around, even if the weather isn’t great.
It has everything you need for a comfortable stay (although a few extra tea towels and kitchen cloths would have been useful).
The information provided ahead of our stay was well thought through and very useful. We hadn’t been expecting to find so many personal items or family photographs belonging to the owners, but it didn’t detract from our experience.
What was disappointing was the level of cleanliness - the linen was clean and comfortable, but the rugs and couches all needed vacuuming.
Overall a great property that we would recommend.

Ideal for a family celebration
Brock Cottage was ideal for our family celebration, bringing together three generations to mark the 80th birthdays of the two eldest of the gathering of ten members.
Each bedroom was very distinctive; the communal rooms provided ample opportunity for socialising. The cottage was spacious, so that it never felt crowded.
Excellent cooking facilities. For our main celebratory meal, we lunched at the Plough in Kingham, which was excellent.
The days were cool for June and we would have welcomed more information about how to operate the central heating , to take off the morning chill.

Birthday get away
What a stunning property! The standard of cleanliness was great. Very spacious property, more than enough of our group of 10 adults. A quirky, creative, spacious space that is just so special. Adam, the owner, was very lovely too. Highly recommend, look no further!

A lovely space to share with friends
This was a great house with a great entertaining space but unfortunately lacked a few basic items.
Not enough toilet roll. Not enough wine glasses, no tea towel or kitchen roll. No ice and only a tiny tray to make ice.
The other issue was finding the house which was a little remote and down a dirt track.
Also we had issues with coming in cars that were unsuitable for the road up to the house.
You need to drive very slowly and strictly follow the directions provided.
Also coming in daylight for the first time was a must.
The clear directions on heating the house worked well.

Beautiful Spacious home from home
Light, airy and spacious home from home with everything you need and more! Children loved all the toys/DVD’s etc. 13 of us stayed for a weekend and had a great family get together, thank you!

Very good.
We all enjoyed it . A very unusual property & very interesting !
Plenty of room & everything we needed.
Only slight problem ,which we know has been mentioned before, was the amount of 'potholes' on the lanes getting there. Also think the sign for the cottage could have been a little more pronounced. Overall we would recommend to others.

Pleasant stay
The house was perfect for our group, 7 adults & 4 children. It has everything that we need.. big space, full kitchen (but no microwave), washing machine & dryer, backyard with trampoline, etc. Location was little hard to find. Overall it was a pleasant stay and I would recommend this house for other travelers.

A fantastic, homely weekend with friends
A group of 12 friends came together for a weekend, and Brock Cottage turned out to be the perfect venue, for a relaxed and happy time. The cottage is very homely and welcoming - there are lots of belongings there, rather than it being the more common style of blank holiday cottage. It is like walking into someone's home, but that makes it all the more welcoming. We were a party of adults, but the house is brilliantly set up if you are travelling with children (fancy dress costumes, space hoppers, and some quirky sleeping spaces!).
The house is decorated in a very individual way, with some interesting art choices, which provided many a talking point. The bedrooms and bathrooms were all comfortable, spacious and welcoming.
However, the heart of the house is the fantastic kitchen / diner / lounge. It never felt cramped with all 12 of us there at once, was beautifully equipped and really cosy with the wood burner on. In summer, I imagine it would be an especially lovely space with the huge patio doors opening onto the garden.
The directions in the welcome pack were well written and much needed (easy to get lost without them), and the track to the house is worth taking slowly (as our Ocado driver found out!).
We had brilliant help from Bolthole Retreats with a couple of queries before we arrived, and help in finding some lost belongings after we had left.
As we were only there for a short time, we didn't explore the local area much, although we did have a lovely lunch at the King's Head in Bledlington.
All in all, a wonderful weekend. Highly recommended.

Spacious family accommodation
Heating and hot water systems - owner controlled remotely, consequently cold water on first morning and had to call to ask for heating on Sunday early evening.
No iron.
Though 2 x high chairs and cots were agreed, only one of each was present - tricky with 1 year old twins, fortunately the one cot supplied was large enough to accommodate 2.
Very thin feather pillows, one per bed space, mentioned by everyone in the family group
Kitchen/diner/living - great family space with direct access to lawns with swings and trampoline enjoyed by all
