Beautiful cottage holiday

We thoroughly enjoyed our break away in the Cotswolds in Star Cottage. The cottage was very cosy and beautiful, clean and tidy and a great location for visiting the nearby villages and sights. We had all the information we needed for an enjoyable break. The red lion pub nearby was beautiful with great food and friendly staff and we would highly recommend this cottage to others in the future, and hopefully return there ourselves!

A comfortable homely cottage in a nice location

A good garden for dogs with lots of sitting areas. The only comment is the taps in the downstairs toilet could not be turned on and off easily and there was only a small amount of water coming through to wash hands

A cosy beautiful cottage

We thoroughly enjoyed our stay at Star Cottage. It is one of the best holiday homes we have stayed in. Very cosy, has everything you would need as a home from home and very close to a number of places to visit. The cottage is in a very quiet location which made for a very relaxing break.

Great stay at charming cottage

Star cottage is a quintessential Cotswold cottage with bags of old world charm that has been sympathetically updated to cater for guests. The cottage offered good accommodation for two couples with excellent facilities. The garden was private - excellent for relaxing. Our stay was made very easy by having a good contact in Hannah who looked after us very well and left us a good starter pack. We would be happy to return.

Memorable Stay at Cotswold

We enjoyed the stay at Star Cottage very much. The cottage was cosy and comfortable; and well equipped and stocked with everything we needed. In terms of location, the cottage was also easily accessible and we had no problems checking in on our own even though it was night-fall when we first arrived at the cottage. My family rated Star Cottage as the best accommodation in our recent trip to UK !

A dream come true

My wife and I are from Taiwan and we have always dreamt of staying in a cottage in Cotswold, just like in the movie, "The Holiday." Star Cottage has made our dream come true. During our three-day stay, it was our home away from home. Great memories and experience. We will surely come back again.

Already planning a return

This is by far one of the loveliest cottages we have stayed in. If you want somewhere in a quiet and pretty village, with walks from the door and village pubs nearby, this is the place to book. It has everything you will need and was spotless. We have nervous dogs and with the cottage being away from the road and a secure back garden it was ideal. Was reluctant to leave and will definitely be booking again. Lovely and helpful staff at Stay Cotswold.

Amazing cottage shame about the damp

Thank you for a lovely stay at star cottage. It was in the perfect location to explore the Cotswolds and had lots of lovely charm and character. I felt some soft furnishings needed replacing and the damp is a big problem. My toddler suffers from viral wheeze and I was concerned this could cause an issue. I hope this is helpful, honest feedback. Best wishes Jennifer

A beautiful cosy cottage

Would highly recommend staying here! We had a fantastic few days away and the cottage felt home from home! Decorated beautifully and a lovely set back from the road cottage. We went in February but would be gorgeous in summer too! Good distance to lots of different places (no more than 5-10 mins drive) so worked really well if you want to visit places… or stay put!

A Slice of Heaven

I spent a birthday long weekend at this beautiful house with my nan and daughter, and we were absolutely blown away. The house is stunning from the outside and tastefully decorated on the inside. I especially appreciated the thoughtful touches, like keeping breakables out of reach of little hands. The house was exceptionally well-stocked with all the essentials, and the surrounding area was peaceful and safe. The welcome book was incredibly informative—we ended up using several of the recommendations during our stay. We felt so at home in the cottage that we were genuinely sad to leave. I hope we get the chance to return someday!

Lovely Comfy Cottage

This is our second time at Star Cottage and it was just as good as last time. Clean, well equipped and very comfortable beds. Goods night sleep for all our exploring! Little Compton is an excellent base to visit all the Cotswolds towns and villages in the area. Also there are alot of NT properties in the area to visit. The only negatives we had were the pressure in the bathroom taps. Water runs very slow. Also the bath is very slippery. Really needs a rubber bath mat to sit on when having a bath! That said these couple of things didn’t spoil our week there and we will be back soon!!!

Wonderful Cottage

It was a wonderful cottage for my family and I. Everything about it was amazing, the dining area, living room, kitchen, bedrooms and even the front and back yards. Loved the Christmas tree in the living room as we visited in December. Board games were available and we had a good time playing them. Thank you Star Cottage!!

Lovely cottage in a great area

A very well equipped cottage. Very dog friendly in a lovely village ideal to do lots of walks from. Shame the local pub was not dog friendly but that's not a reflection on the cottage. Would definitely consider staying at this property again.
