Just a great stay.

From the moment Karin met us to us leaving a thoroughly enjoyable stay was had . The coach house is superb , the location and town equally so . It was a pleasure to meet Karin and use all of her suggestions .

A delightful, restful cottage with very congenial hosts, who were warm and welcoming. It provided a great base for our exploration of the Cotswolds.

We enjoyed our stay at Dolly’s. It’s in an area close to plenty of beautiful Cotswold’s villages and gardens and with a lot of walking opportunities. However, we found the lounge chair particularly uncomfortable - too low and the seating too deep - and discovered it’s not the one shown in the photos which looks far more comfortable. And we’re wondering why the “home-made chair” (not in the photos) was there at all. It would be far too uncomfortable to sit on it and it took up so much space in an already small area.

We have now stayed at Wharf Stables during our last 3 trips to the UK from Western Australia. It is impossible to describe the feeling of peace and tranquillity that descends on us the moment we arrive. The cottage is beautifully appointed and well equipped. The setting is unbeatable - from the cottage one can wave to people passing by on the canal in their narrowboats and watch a variety of wildlife including rabbits, squirrels, ducks and swans in close proximity to the cottage. This is the perfect place to unwind and relax.

We used the cottage as a base to travel to other places due to family commitments but when we were there it was a lovely location. Beside the canal/locks and near a country pub,that was obviously popular in the area, it has a lot going for it. we wished that we could have spent more time in the village walking around.
