Lovely Cotswold Cottage in Spectacular Location

My family and I stayed the month of December in Bourton-on-the-Water, our first trip to the Cotswolds. We chose Riverside House because the VRBO listing seemed exactly what we were looking for. Upon arrival we quickly realized that though the listing is quite accurate it does not express the charm and comfort of the Cottage, nor does it indicate how perfect the location is. We were able to park off street just outside the house as parking in Bourton can be challenging. We did not need to use the car very much as the House is located in the center of town, surrounded by restaurants and shops. The house itself is very comfortable and nicely designed. We particularly enjoyed using the AGA, which was a new experience for us. If visiting Bourton, Riverside House is the perfect place to stay. We would highly recommend it during the off season. We can't really speak to peak season.

Just what we wanted

Riverside was the perfect vacation home for us. Our favorite time of day was early morning, having breakfast in the front yard and talking with everyone strolling by. It is truly the most lovely residence in the town and most people stopped to engage us in conversation. The private patio was a great alternative if we wanted peace and quiet. Beds were comfortable, the furniture was lovely, kitchen well-equipped. I’d like to return next year if time and budget permits!

Listing is accurate: this is a superb house in an unmatched location. There are not enough superlatives to describe our stay here…except for the weird heat wave, we loved everything about it. There were a lot of tourists walking along (and in) the river but the house’s thick stone walls kept its interior relatively cool and quiet. It was fun to watch the people and dogs outside, and to walk to the end of the block for some fresh bread, cream tea, or a pint. Grocery store just across the little bridge has a nice selection of everything we needed. Kitchen had everything necessary to cook, but with so many pubs and restaurants just outside the door, we didn’t feel the need. Garage with laundry machines was a huge bonus. Property manager and housekeeper were legit and very prompt in responding to our questions. Highest recommendation!
