Stunning Property

We had a four night stay in this stunning property and could not fault it. Beautifully decorated, extremely well equipped and the attention to detail is second to none. It is also extremely conveniently located for shops, restaurants and buses/trains. We will return.

Perfect property!

We had a fantastic stay at Highgate! The property is beautiful - everything has been finished to a high standard and it’s definitely one of the best properties I’ve stayed in. The beds were comfy, the house spotless and the off-street parking was ideal. It’s centrally located yet you don’t hear any noise from the town as it’s set back a little. We enjoyed a meal at Bellini in Moreton and had a lovely pub lunch at The Great Western Arms in Blockley which we walked to from the cottage via Batsford - so many lambs! Thanks for a wonderful stay, we’d love to come back soon!

Beautiful, clean property in the Cotswolds

This was an easy 5 star location. I see many marginal, frankly questionable properties rated at 4 or more on VRBO and other listing sites, but this is a solid, no question 5 star property. It is a converted historic Cotswold barn, with charming character coupled with all modern flooring, furniture, fixtures, plumbing, appliances and on. The manager is very helpful. As my wife said, it felt like home the moment we walked in. Great location just minutes from the train station with easy access to London and bus lines. Highly recommended

Super stay

Highgate was one of the nicest places we have stayed in. Comfortable and more spacious than it looked in the photos with everything you could want for a most enjoyable stay especially as we had a week of sunshine. Definitely would like to return.

Lovely Cotswold Cottage

We had an enjoyable winter week in the Highgate cottage Moreton.. It was clean and very well equipped with everything we could want . All kitchen utensils were like new, very comfortable beds , lovely bathrooms and seating with rugs for extra comfort. The log burner was also great during the cold spell while there. Location is excellent, a gated property just off the town centre. Would thorough recommend it.

Best cottage we've stayed in.

We thoroughly enjoyed our stay in Highgate. The cottage was absolutely spotless and really beautifully styled and furnished. We found everything we needed and more, for a very comfortable and easy stay. The kitchen was well equipped and we even had a little welcome basket which was a nice surprise. We made good use of the fire every evening and just enjoyed the peace and quiet, although there is a big smart tv and a load of games provided too. The bed (in the bedroom above the dining room) was so comfortable that it was difficult to leave it in a morning! We slept so well as it was so so quiet (there was nobody staying in the opposite cottage and we didn't see any other neighbours) The whole place has been really well thought out with the layout of the 2 bedrooms being at opposite ends of the house and each having their own bathroom so 2 couples could stay very comfortably and have their own space. The location was perfect being tucked away right off the high street with its own gated access and private parking spot. All the convenience of the shops without the noise. We absolutely loved it there and can't wait to return!

Exceeded expectations for first time "Cotswolders"

Could not have asked for a better experience being our first time to the Cotswolds. The cottage was clean and had all the amenities one would need. Location was great, place was clean, and the fireplace and games made for nice relaxation time when we weren't out exploring. Instructions were clear and Helen was great to deal with!

Wonderful Cotswold cottage

Highgate is a wonderful property in the centre of Moreton In Marsh. The space is open plan and beautifully decorated. The beds are very comfortable and both the bathrooms spacious with great showers.

Place was awesome!

This cottage was very nice, looked newly renovated all the while keeping a lot of charm. Both bedrooms are nicely separated with their own set of stairs for privacy, as well as each having their own full bathroom. Location was great, very easy walk from the train station, less than 5mins. As close as it is to a main road and train station, the cottage is very quiet and private. We had a very enjoyable stay!

Lovely house strange hosts

Lovely house but the hosts monitor your comings and goings and this made us feel very uncomfortable - I wouldn't stay again just because of that.

Highgate on Morten in Marsh Highstreet

Lovely holiday cottage / barn conversion. Loads of space inside and the added bonus of off street parking. We stayed Monday to Friday and really enjoyed our stay. Highgate had everything we needed and more. Bathrooms located next to both bedrooms meaning it’s suitable for 2 couples and still plenty of privacy (although there was only 2 of us, we didn’t use the back suite). Location wise, right off the high street and walking distance to lots of lovely coffee shops and eatery’s. The parking was a great added bonus, tight access, but we managed okay with our small SUV (Volvo XC40). Thanks for a brilliant stay, will definitely be back!
