This property is situated above a commercial property PFPWealth, just off Stow Square. It is accessed via steep stairs and is therefore not suitable for those with difficulties climbing stairs

No smoking or vaping is permitted throughout the property

Things to Note...
Events are not permitted without prior consent
A security deposit is required at this property
Check in is from 17:00 and check out is by 10:00
The Stow Horse Fair is held twice a year, typically on the Thursday closest to 12th May and the Thursday closest to 24th October, however, we would recommend checking the exact date ahead of placing your booking. This is a traditional fair for gypsies and travelling people to meet up and trade which dates back to 1476 when its Charter was granted. Stow is very busy for a day or two before and after each fair, and a number of shops, pubs and restaurants are closed. Whilst many visitors enjoy the colour and vibrancy associated with the fairs, other visitors prefer to avoid Stow on these dates

Excellent accommodation right in the heart of Stow

Myself & my wife stayed at Church View for 2 nights with our daughter & fiancé and our dog. The apartment is wonderful. Clean and more than spacious enough for the four of us. The terrace is a lovely bonus and we were fortunate with the weather to enjoy an alfresco lunch during our stay. The beds were comfortable and the bathroom was filled with light from the skylight. Hard to find any faults but despite an array of kitchen utensils there is no can opener which caused a minor issue but other than that we were delighted with our stay.

The Church Bells !

My husband and I did enjoy our trip to the Cotswolds. However the comfort in Church view very disappointing. The mattress on the beds very poor . Would suggest take your own pillows. The church bells ring all through the night , we were able to use the bedroom at the back if need the front room take ear plugs. A good nights sleep is so important to me so for us we would not return.

Thank you David for your review of Church View Apartment. We are delighted that you found the property to be in the perfect location. We are sorry to hear that you found the lounge and seating to not meet your personal level of comfort. With regard to the key safe box, we understand that its current location may not be ideal; however, installation options are extremely limited due to the structural layout and constraints of the property. We do hope that you will be back to stay again soon!

Great apartment in the centre of Stow on the wold

Great Location right in the centre of Stow on the Wold just perfect for touring The Cotswolds.Apartment was cleaning and had everything needed for our week stay also in walking distant to lots of local Pubs which all served meals. On street parking which was nearby although 2 hour limited between 9am-6pm this never cause us a problem. Some people have commented on the Church Bells ring on the hour through the night, this never caused us any issues Would definitely stay here again.

Lovely week in Stow

Enjoyed a lovely week in Stow on the Wold. The apartment was perfectly located near the church. Stow is a busy little town but the apartment was quiet and private.

It was the perfect home base for exploring the Cotswolds. The place was across the square from a bunch of great restaurants and shops and a grocery store. It’s was super cute and a perfect place to rest after a day of touring around.

Cotswolds Retreat

What a wonderful, peaceful, and safe stay my husband, daughter, and I had. The apartment was perfect with special touches throughout: biscuits on counter, milk in fridge, toiletries wrapped up in bathroom. There was much to do in town and the restaurants were wonderful and accommodating. I only wished we could have stayed longer!!

Lovely apartment

Lovely apartment in a great location in the centre of stow. We were 4 adults and it was slightly on the small side for 4 adults (could do with an extra chair in the lounge area) but had everything we needed. Well equipped kitchen, comfy beds, lovely garden terrace.

Stay at Church View

We had a wonderful short break and the apartments location was absolutely perfect. Quiet, clean and comfortable. Everything we needed to make the most of our time.

Girls weekend

The apartment was lovely, well appointed, great location. More mirrors are needed in the bedrooms The sofa is extremely low and uncomfortable The location of the key safe hanging behind very full and smelly bins was both difficult to access and unpleasant. It would have been easy to drop the keys behind the bins.

Review of accommodation

We had a lovely stay in this apartment. It was well situated, very clean and cosy. Unfortunately the bed was small and not very comfortable so by the 3rd night my back was very sore. A better mattress would really make a big difference.

A cosy apartment - best for only a couple perhaps. No problems parking in the square. Excellent kitchen, good storage space and size of sitting room. Liked the roof terrace . Lighting could be better and maybe the bathroom could do with a bit of updating..

disappointed

At first glance, the apartment looked clean, but upon closer inspection, this was anything but true. The kitchen cabinets were dirty, and both bathroom windows were filthy. Clouds of dust lay under the bed. We also found both mattresses very uncomfortable.
Response from VrboOwner on 15 Oct 2025
Thank you for taking the time to leave a review of Church View Apartment. We are sorry to hear that your stay did not meet your expectations. We have shared your feedback with the property manager, who will be arranging a thorough deep clean of the apartment. His contact details were included in your welcome email, and had he been made aware during your stay, he would have been more than happy to help resolve the issues for you. We do appreciate that mattress comfort can vary from person to person, and we are sorry to hear that you found them uncomfortable, as this has not been mentioned by previous guests. We hope you will return to the Cotswolds soon.
