Very good and not so good! Beautiful and peaceful location. The house had a rustic charm and was tastefully furnished. History of the property was quite interesting. Very helpful owners that lived in the grounds and helped when we encountered a problem with our vehicle. That was much appreciated. Great walk across the fields to Chipping Campden which is a beautiful Cotswold town and well worth a visit. Lovely farm shop and cafe which is a 10 min walk from the house. We also visited Blenheim Palace. Unfortunately some areas were a big let down. I will mention some…Badly stained soft furnishings and various maintenance issues which should never occur in a holiday rental property. First floor WC was unacceptablely soiled! No dishwasher tablets or any cleaning materials in the kitchen except washing up liquid and caustic soda. No blind/curtain on first floor big bathroom window which may or may not bother guests. I’m sure these issues will be sorted out for future guests! ...
