Christmas stay at Willows House
Overall my family really enjoyed our stay at Willows house. It felt very homely and the layout was perfect. Location in Lower Swell was great, really nice local pub and close to shops in Stow. Our only criticism would be of some of the amenities supplied. The pots/pans etc were quite old and not suitable for cooking for a large family.

A great house for friends or family
We stayed as a group of 2 families and had a great time at The Willows House. The layout and bedrooms are perfect for 2 families, there is lots of living space and a great sized kitchen and dining space with all the amenities you would expect and need. Lovely village and a great location for all the local sites. One day we followed the footpath across farm land to Stow-On-the-Wold. Was an excellent and beautiful walk with a great pub lunch in the middle. The house could do with some general maintenance (curtain polls barely hanging on) and a good clean especially looking for cobwebs. Very easy to book through Stay Cotswold. Thank you

Wonderful Home in the Cotswolds
The Willows House in Lower Swell was the perfect home for our family of four and another family of five to spend a week. The home is charming, well appointed, and very comfortable. The location, just outside of Stow-On-The-Wold makes for easy day trips to nearby towns, while the public footpaths provide for delightful walks to the neighboring villages or Lower and Upper Slaughter, Stow, and beyond. The booking was very easy and the rental agency provided good and timely communication. We would stay here again!
