About this property

Quiet Cowfair Cottage In Central Cotswolds With Lovely Garden

Cowfair is tucked away in a quiet position in the picturesque village of Chipping Campden. This comfortable, detached, Cotswold stone cottage is just 300 metres from the village centre and its many excellent restaurants, independent shops and boutiques. Close to the Cotswold Way footpath and within easy reach of Stratford-upon-Avon, Cheltenham and Oxford. Ideally situated for walking, racing, gardens (i.e. Hidcote), Stratford Theatre, antique shops.

The cottage consists of entrance hall, large kitchen with a range of fitted units, fridge/freezer, microwave, dishwaher and dining alcove. Utility room off the kitchen with washing machine, drying rack, and separate sink, cloakroom, W.C.

Cosy sitting room with electric log-effect wood burner and French windows opening out on to the terrace and private walled garden.

Upstairs there are two bedrooms - one king and one twin plus a family bathroom.

Outside is a lovely long garden, laid mostly to grass, bound by a dry stone wall. Secure for young children (note the wall is quite low to one end). Garden furniture plus and BBQ for the summer months. There is hard standing to park a car off road at the end of the garden, accessed via a track down the side of the property.

Homey Cottage in the Cotswolds

Jemma's cottage is comfortable, spacious, well-appointed and in a great location with easy access to the village high street and nearby walking paths. We had a lovely time in this area and felt right at home here. Jemma is a responsive host but we didn't have any issues during our stay. Thanks again, Jemma. We'd love to stay again someday.

Great location with off street parking.

Enjoyed the property overall. Great location, quiet with off-street parking. However the bed in the main bedroom is too soft as has been noted by other guests. Would have also been nice to see a few more essentials in the kitchen

Thank you for your review. I’m sorry you found the bed too soft. We changed both the beds in the single room after a particular review however, in the main bedroom people have also commented how comfortable it is. It’s tricky to get it right. However, we will look into it and appreciate your feedback. In terms of essentials we provide the basics for a self catering property (to include tea, coffee, sugar, salt, pepper and oil. Plus some cleaning products, sponge, cloth, washing up liquid, hand soap, dishwash tabs, tea towels and oven gloves). It would be valuable if you could share what else would be helpful? We are always looking for ways to improve if we can. Best wishes, Jemma

Wonderful quaint cottage in a great location

The cottage is well equipped with all the basics you would want in a vacation rental. The beds were comfy. We especially appreciated the lovely walled back garden for breakfast and dinner. There were some toys and books for our 5 year old. Parking was easily available and safe. It was just a short walk to the shops in Chipping Campden, yet felt private and relaxing.

WOnderful location, charming cottage

The cottage was probably the nicest place we've stayed. We had breakfast in the private, walled garden every day, enjoying the flowers and the weather--OK, to be honest, others probably shouldn't expect a week of no rain, but we loved ours! It was comfortable, and we enjoyed the 10 minute walk to town for meals. We hiked to Dover hill, if you can call a 2 mile excursion a hike. And we enjoyed yours of the local gardens. Stay hEre!

Excellent cottage

We had a great stay at this cottage. It is spacious, and the garden was great for our kids to play in. It was well-equipped, and we were able to cook everything we needed. The washer/dryer was a nice touch and worked well. The private parking off the street was also very nice, as the street parking got quite full over the weekend. The GPS coordinates from the VRBO app are a little off, but we didn't have much trouble finding the cottage up the street. There are lots of things to do in the immediate area, as well as within a short drive. We would definitely stay here again.

Fantastic Week in The Cotswolds

My wife, 9 year old daughter and our Labradoodle had a fantastic week in Chipping Campden. House was perfect for us. Clean and renovated bathroom and kitchen with all the necessities. Walking distance to the high street but very quiet at night. Jemma and her daughter came by to greet us and was very responsive with any questions we had. Definitely recommend. You won’t be disappointed.

Cowfair for us

We enjoyed a week at this charming cottage in Chipping Campden, which in our view is one of the real jewels of the Cotswolds. It is very well located for walking into town and as a base for driving around the region. We found the stairs to be steep for oldies and the TV is not “smart” if caught with rainy weather. Everything else worked just fine.
