A little piece of paradise

So serene and beautiful. Close to many charming towns. A daily walk out the door to a small village was so inviting as well as morning coffee watching the waddling ducks in the gardens or pond. Our hosts were lovely people. We thoroughly enjoyed our stay. Thank you for opening up your VRBO to share with others.

The most wonderful stay!

Myself and my partner had the most wonderful stay at Louise’s barn. We were welcomed with a lovely hamper, and shown around the beautiful property by Louise. The blissful surroundings and high qualify finish of the barn was the perfect location to celebrate a special birthday. We left feeling completely relaxed and rejuvenated. A huge thank you to Louise for being such a fantastic host - we will certainly be returning!

Idyllic location, gorgeous garden.

Clean and modern lodging in the heart of the Cotswolds. We had breakfast on the patio in the morning while ducklings were wandering with their mom. The kitchen is small, but has everything you need. The host graciously left some food for us in the fridge. We had a wonderful time, and had no problem communicating with the host. The view from the living room is gorgeous. Would recommend without hesitation. Thank you, Louise!

Lovely, clean property and really well maintained. We were provided with a nice welcome pack of essentials such as bread and milk which was handy! Comfy bed, large seating area and access to on demand essentials as needed.Hard to find any fault with the place if honest and we really enjoyed our time here. Lovely locations dotted nearby and if dining out we were provided with a nice list of 'picks' which came recommended and we managed to book our meals no problem and the meals were ace and in that 'country pub' style we were expecting. Would visit again without question.

We had a lovely time staying at this property. The cottage was spacious, clean and cosy, perfect for a quiet getaway. In the morning it was lovely to wake up to a scenic view. There was lots of recommendations on where to dine and things to do locally. The host, Louise, was lovely and helpful. The locals were also lovely as we ended up visiting a pop up pup locally to have a drink and it felt like a friendly, close community. The garden at the property is beautiful and we enjoyed having breakfast out there, overlooking the lovely scenery. We would definitely reccomend for anyone who fancies a nice beak in the cotswolds.

Garden View Delight!

We're so glad we stayed at Louise and Paul's stunning property for 5 days. Oh, the views! Whether sitting pond-side watching the ducks and birds, or enjoying breakfast at our little table overlooking the gardens through the wall of windows, the views and setting were exquisite! Paul and Louise were such gracious hosts, and we would definitely stay here again if visiting the Cotswolds. Easy access to all that we wanted to experience. 5 stars for comfort as well. Thank you again for a memorable experience!

Stunning!!!

If you are looking for a beautiful modern farmhouse cottage in an idyllic setting, look no more. 15 to 20 minutes from some of the more stunning sights and restaurants in the Cotswold, this is truly a perfect place to relax and enjoy. The hosts - Louise and Paul, went way beyond our expectations in making the home comfortable and our stay enjoyable. Only left today but already planning our next visit. You certainly won't be disappointed - everything was perfect - definitely 5 star. Be sure to ask Louise for some restaurant suggestions - she sent us to some of the best.

30th wedding anniversary trip

My husband and I are touring England for our 30th wedding anniversary. We chose this place for one of our stops along our journey. Louis was wonderful from the very beginning of our booking until we pulled out to leave. She provided many ideas of things to do, places to visit, and great restaurants to enjoy. Louis was available for any needs we may have had during our stay and her response time via VRBO messaging was super fast! The place was very clean, comfortable, and had extras that we haven’t encountered before during a VRBO stay anywhere else. Louis provided items in the kitchenette that were a welcomed surprise from milk, juice, coffee, tea, snacks, bread, cookies, and breakfast items. It was truly a special place and one of the highlights of our trip. The outside area was pleasant as well with beautiful gardens, a pond, and a cute family of ducks to watch as you relax. Thank you Louis for the memories.

A Hidden Gem

I can't even say enough positive things about the Great Wolford property! From the minute you pull into the driveway you are surrounded by the most serene landscape. From the English garden to the quaint pond with ducks, to the peaceful sitting area, to the historic house and cottage, you are taken away to an amazing place that makes you forget everything. Louise and Paul are incredible hosts that make you feel so welcome. When you walk up the stairs in the cottage to your living quarters you are surrounded by more beauty as you look out the picturesque windows overlooking the Cotswold farmland. No matter where you look on this property the views are amazing. Honestly if we didn't have plans to go to the British Grand Prix I would have spent way more time enjoying the local surroundings. But that will be for a next time because we are definitely coming back!! Wendy

Honeymoon in Paradise!

A stunning contemporary cottage, situated in its own piece of paradise. An absolute jewel of a location. Birds, fish, wildlife. So peaceful and tranquil. The views are second to none. The cottage is spotlessly clean, fully furnished & equipped to very high standards. Louise and Paul are excellent hosts. Very friendly, helpful and provided everything we could possibly need. It was our honeymoon & we arrived to find a lovely card & bottle of bubbly to help us celebrate. It was also Easter and there mini eggs & bunny crumpets. Nothing was overlooked by Louise and Paul, they thought of everything. They even put the loungers out for us to enjoy the sun. If you’re looking for somewhere for total relaxation and to escape the rat race this is the place for you! We didn’t want to leave. Christmas Cottage is the most perfect place we’ve ever stayed. And Louise and Paul are the best hosts. We will be back again.
