Exceptional
Reviews are presented in chronological order, subject to a moderation process, and verified unless otherwise labelled.
We didn't have a car so buses to local villages, etc were very convenient. The train station was also nearby. The decor and comfort level of the unit was excellent. Close proximity to restaurants and food outlets. Although there were supplies to light a fire in the fireplace, we were uncomfortable doing so as there weren't any instructions. We would definitely like to come back someday.

Cozy New Years
The cottage was absolutely perfect for our family of four get away. Located right in the middle of town, and easy to access. It was super clean and had everything we needed. Our favourite was to cozy up to the wood fireplace at night. A dream stay. Felt like home.

Highgate- Amazing stay in a wonderful location
We stayed in the amazingly comfortable and well appointed accommodation
Helen was wonderful and very accommodating. Four adults were extremely comfortable and it was a great relaxing oasis to return to after a day of exploring the Cotswolds
We would highly recommend Highgate to anyone who wanted well located and comfortable accommodation when exploring the Cotswolds
We had an amazing time here. The space was absolutely beautiful, well equipped and spotlessly clean. Our host was made sure we had what we needed to enjoy our stay and communication was excellent. The lay out worked very well for two couple travelling together. Shops and restaurants were nearby.

Superb accommodation, very cosy & comfortable and exceptionally clean.
The accommodation is well thought out and everything you can think of has been provided. The property is spotless, cosy and warm and so easy to relax in.
We appreciated having a secure space to park at the property, which is perfectly situated just off the High Street.
Moreton in the Marsh is a great place to explore the Cotswolds and I can’t recommend Highgate enough as the place to enjoy your stay.
The property is one of the nicest I have stayed at. Well stocked with everything I could need. Location was great, a short walk from the train station and very close to town but still very quiet.Loved it and hope to come back with friends

Stunning and quiet cottage tucked nicely behind the high street
The cottage is really well finished, very clean and tidy.
Booking and access was a doddle.
Brilliantly located and very quiet.
Each room has a well appointed private bathroom/shower room.
I highly recommend this place.

Fabulous Stay at Highgate
This is one of the best designed, most comfortable, immaculately presented rental properties we've had the pleasure to rent in the UK. Everything you needed was at you fingertips, very comfortable and offered the best of both worlds.....beams and character but thoroughly modern.
It is perfect for 2 couples....we will hope to come back.

excellent property in Moreton in Marsh
This cottage was the highlight of our 3 ½ week trip around the UK. So nice to spread out, do some laundry, and open some windows! Excellent central location, close to train station/tour pickups, and it felt very secure and quiet tucked away in the back of the main street.

Lovely weekend with friends
Fabulous 2-night stay at Highgate. Highgate is spacious, characterful, super clean and super well-equipped. We loved it. Moreton-in-Marsh is a great base for walks and has plenty of great coffee shops, places to eat and pubs.

Place was awesome!
This cottage was very nice, looked newly renovated all the while keeping a lot of charm. Both bedrooms are nicely separated with their own set of stairs for privacy, as well as each having their own full bathroom. Location was great, very easy walk from the train station, less than 5mins. As close as it is to a main road and train station, the cottage is very quiet and private. We had a very enjoyable stay!

Exceeded expectations for first time "Cotswolders"
Could not have asked for a better experience being our first time to the Cotswolds. The cottage was clean and had all the amenities one would need. Location was great, place was clean, and the fireplace and games made for nice relaxation time when we weren't out exploring. Instructions were clear and Helen was great to deal with!
