Great location.

Lovely little place tucked away just behind the River Windrush and Bourton village centre. Decorated and furnished to a high standard and everything you need is provided. Parking is a great bonus as is the lovely long garden at the back. Really enjoyed our stay at North House.

Beautiful place,,

Excellent location, one street back from the main waterway, loved the decor (especially the 2nd bedroom which we didn't use ,shower was fantastic, lovely bathroom ,all modern and open plan downstairs, but tastefully decorated soooo well equipped, everything you could possibly need in the kitchen, small gripe,,,,not much room in the kitchen, but manageable, garden was beautiful although suffering from the heat, only thing that this lovely property down,was the garden furniture which really needs replacing, was past its best,with bits coming off and sagging

North House, Bourton-on-the-Water

We had a very enjoyable 4-night stay at North House in June 2025. Great location in the centre of the village, close to all amenities. We were able to park both cars (Ford Focus & VW Golf) on the driveway, but it might be difficult for larger cars. It was nice to have a garden where you could sit out and relax. Owners were very friendly and helpful.

A lovely cottage in a fantastic location!

We loved our stay at North Cottage. The open plan downstairs worked really well for our toddler as we could always see him. Beds were comfy and everything was well presented. The location really won the show - and to have parking too was a massive positive for us!

Beautiful home in a perfect location

North House has all the comforts of home, in the beautiful village of Bourton-on-the-Water. It's a peaceful haven in what can be a busy place, and it comes well-equipped (although a washer/dryer would have made the offering complete). Would recommend North House to anyone wanting a great location for a Cotswolds getaway.

Highly Recommended

This delightful Cotswold Cottage is situated in the very heart of one of the most attractive villages, with the very lovely Winrush river within a minutes walk. There are two parking spaces in front of the cottage, and all amenities are within very easy and short walking distance. North House is very well appointed, and comfortable, having been given great attention to detail. We found the cottage to be immaculately clean

North House Rocks!!

So if you are fortunate enough to have a little time to spend in the Cotswolds-- and you want a lovely cottage a few steps to the water with a beautiful private backyard garden, modern appliances, a parking space in a village with few of them, cozy bedrooms with views, very comfortable sitting space living room to relax, a very responsive owner, all the amenities you could possibly want-- then THIS IS YOUR HOME!. We from the states and spend lots of time in the Cotswolds and find Bourton on the water to be the best central launch point with superb dining and drinking options-- a co-op nearby-- and awesome walking trails-- we hoped to find an authentic home to relax in which is both close to the shopping/eating/pubbing and yet removed enough to not be in the crowded and the North House was everything we could have asked for. THANKS for allowing us to stay and hope we can visit again quite soon.

Very good

We have stayed in about five different places in Burton the perfumery apartment was one we would rate north house as one of the best there is only one thing I would mention is I have a bad hip and going up the stairs at the top of the stairs there is only one hand rail on one side that is the only thing I would mention otherwise we would highly recommend North house

Lovely cottage in the heart of Bourton on the water. This cottage is perfectly located just one street behind the Main Street that runs through the village so is easily walkable to everything but is also quiet, and the best bit is it has parking. You may be able to fit 2 small cars on we had a suv and this took up most of the forecourt. The cottage itself is very nicely decorated, the beds were super comfy, the shower was lovely and there is comfortable seating for 4 in the lounge area. The kitchen it small but had everything we needed including a dishwasher and coffee maker with pods provided. Overall a lovely stay

An amazing cottage in a perfect location!

Our stay at North House was nothing but amazing! The cottage was clean, charming and well equipped. We particularly enjoyed being able to play football in the back garden and the basket of board games in the living room :) It is situated right in the heart of Bourton-on-the-Water, a hop & a skip to the cute shops, cafes and beautifully clean river! We would certainly recommend this cottage!

Perfect Location at Bourton-on-the-Water

Excellent central location at Bourton with parking right in front of the cottage, though a bit tight for two cars as advertised; modernised interior with everything you need except a washing machine and or a dryer; beautiful garden; a bit noisy with the nearby pub and bustling tourists; walking distance to everything at Bourton

A Great house in Bourton-on-the-water

The house was very good with two floors and comfortable rooms. It was mostly quiet even though it was close to the little river that are bustling with tourists. The town was a goods starting point för excursios to nearby places.

Picture Perfect

The cottage was very welcoming & cosy, perfectly located to experience the village & local sites. A home from home. The owners were lovely and it was reassuring to have their details, they clearly care about service and care for guests staying at North House. Had a beautiful family trip where we explored, bonded, reconnected with nature and discovered a whole new area. We will definitely be back for more.

Excellent Cottage, Perfect Location

My wife and I stayed for a few days. We've visited the area several times and love this location. The cottage is perfectly situated, very clean, quiet at night, offers easy parking for one car directly in front of the home. We would highly recommend this property.
