The property was full of character, spacious and warm. The art work displayed throughout the house was pleasing and the kitchen was well equipped. The property had a very welcoming feel and the bottle of wine, biscuits, tea, coffee and basic condiments were a nice touch. The garden and surroundings were very peaceful and we were able to enjoy the September sun from the terrace as well as the two conservatories. Any one with mobility issues may find the changes of levels within ground floor of the house and the garden slightly challenging. Overall a lovely place to stay.

A lovely house set amidst forest with a calm and peaceful atmosphere. A natural retreat and a great space to enjoy the company of good friends. We managed to survive the spectacularly steep local roads and loved our visit to the Saturday farmers’ market in Stroud. The top twin-bed room also has mightily steep access but was perfect for two sturdy teenaged boys. The beautiful planting in the garden and the pretty interior furnishings were a highlight - as was the peace and quiet. (Could have done with a few dishwasher tablets and linen for the sofa bed.) Many thanks for an enjoyable visit.

This property definitely has the wow factor. Lovely as the photographs are they don’t really prepare you for the magic of this beautiful property. I stayed here with three generations of my family and we all thoroughly enjoyed the peace, beauty and seclusion of this place.

Everything was perfect from start to finish. The house and gardens are stunning and we loved every inch of it (though the kitchen got everyone's vote). Everyone felt at home from the second they arrived and it was a stunning venue for a birthday party with friends and family, in the warm June sunshine. Thank you Jacqueline for your patience with my endless questions before we arrived. I just wanted everything to be perfect - but I needn't have worried, it was! We all hope to come back again one day. Thank you

Very enjoyable trip in a lovely house. Host was very nice and helpful also. Highly recommend.

Jacqueline made us feel welcome from the moment we booked. Incredible responsive and helpful before and during our stay. The house is perfect for get-togethers, with plenty of space indoors for hanging out together and beautiful surroundings for some amazing walks. Easily accessible with only ten mins from Stroud. Cannot recommend enough!

We spent a really special weekend at the house, with three generations of our family coming together. Everyone had a wonderful time - in large part thanks to the charm and uniqueness of the place. And our young kids absolutely loved exploring the extensive grounds and woods at the back of the property. The hosts (Jacqueline and Daniel) were there to welcome us, and it was clear throughout our stay that they have poured a lot of love into the property over the years. Highly recommended.

We had a wonderful stay at this beautiful house. Jacqueline and Daniel couldn't have done more to make us feel welcome. We had a family gathering to celebrate a special birthday with guests ranging from 10 up to 81 and everyone enjoyed their stay. It was a real home from home with lots of lovely touches, including a very generous basket of goodies when we arrived. We even saw a deer drinking from the pool. A very magical place to stay that we will remember fondly as a key part of celebrations.

What a gorgeous find - tucked away in the heart of Gloucestershire countryside this is a truly eclectic house full of charm. We had a really lovely weekend stay.

Came for a weekend with a group of friends and had a brilliant time. The house is perfect for a small group and the surrounding area is just stunning. Host Jacqueline was perfect. I would definitely return!

Where to start with Nancy's house... It really is the most stunning country house we've ever stayed in. Only a short drive from the station but once you're there you feel in the middle of nowhere and it's wonderful. The house is decorated to perfection, and the kitchen was just a dream, with everything we needed to cook and the perfect dining table for us all to sit round chatting through the night. The lounge is cosy and all the rooms are lovely and comfortable. There's lots of nice walks to do nearby, but even walking round the garden makes you feel at one with nature. The snow came on our final day, leaving us stranded, but Nancy proved herself to be just the best host ever by gifting us one extra night so we could tackle it in the morning. I really couldn't find a fault in Nancy's service or the house and it was just the best Christmas getaway for our friends. We'll definitely return to this charming cotswolds country house! Thanks Nancy!

A wonderful place to be with friends and family

A small group of our friends (seven) stayed for a weekend at Jacqueline's beautiful home in the Cotswolds and our only regret is that we couldn't stay longer. The surrounding area is breathtaking and when we arrived Jacqueline made us feel instantly at home with her warm and inviting demeanor. She is lovely, down to earth and very easy going. Her house was beyond all our expectations! We were excited by the photos on the site but in person it is unbelievable how amazing this home is. Our group of friends all want to leave London and live here now. It is all so warm and charming. The bedrooms are lovely and the beds/mattresses/comforters are so absolutely cozy. It was like sleeping in a cloud and we all had the best sleep. We would spend the days and evenings making meals in the remarkable kitchen and relax in the very comfortable living room with a log fire. We could not have asked for a more perfect accommodation. Then there is the natural surroundings which are a dream. The immediate backyard is beautiful and so very peaceful. We went for long walks on the trails and the beauty of it all is beyond description. By now it shouldn't come as a surprise that I would highly recommend this home but honestly I wish I could articulate more precisely how happy it made our group of friends in the short amount of time we had to spend there. It is an incredibly romantic experience that reconnected us all to nature and to what is important in life. We are already planning our return.

We had a lovely stay here in this amazing house. It really is a true country house with beautiful gardens, and the kitchen and lounge were incredible spaces to social in as a large group. Wouldn’t hesitate to return and Jacqueline was extremely helpful throughout the whole weekend! Thank you!

We had a really lovely weekend at the house. It's in a gorgeous location, with a fab garden. The house is full of character, original features, works of art and quirky touches. It has clearly been a well-loved home. It's really good for groups as it has a big, sociable kitchen, and lovely living room with open fire, both with lots of space. Hosts were really welcoming and helpful, providing any bits & pieces we needed quickly and happily, and even some free home-made jam! Only minor suggestions to improve - a set of really good kitchen knives would be great, and some of the bedrooms had small windows that didn't have curtains which made a lie-in a bit difficult! But these are really small things, overall the house is beautiful and we had a brilliant time.

I'm so pleased I came across this house when looking for somewhere to have a gathering with my close girlfriends. It looked beautiful from the pictures but it is more enchanting than I could've imagined. Every single one of house came into the house and immediately said 'Oh, wow!' We still felt comfortable and at home though, it wasn't too over-whelming at all and we all very quickly relaxed. The owner is also very lovely and dealt with any minor issues (running out of dishwasher tablets!) we had very quickly. I can't recommend this place enough and would love to visit again. Thanks so much for a wonderful time!
