Perfect stay in Winchcombe

Blacksmith Cottage was perfectly situated — central location in Winchcombe but quiet and peaceful. Housed four of us just fine. Comfortable beds, adequate kitchen, and a hostess who could not have been more attentive and helpful. Would definitely stay again!

Friends weekend away

Blacksmiths Cottage is a delightful cottage in a convenient location with just a very short walk to local supermarkets, pubs serving food and shops. Its a two minute walk to the bus stop which takes you to Cheltenham and a 20 minute walk to Sudeley Castle which we would highly recommend. The host was very prompt in answering any questions we had and very kindly left milk and a chocolate cake too (a nice touch). Would mention that the post code took our respective Sat Navs into Cowl Lane, we had to ask a local in the end where Blacksmiths cottage was, the house name albeit at the entrance to the property, would also benefit from being placed on the Back Lane side too. The spacious bedroom with twin beds are we would say quite low (more childrens level) but nonetheless adequate. Overall a lovely cottage in a great location.

Beautiful cottage in a lovely town

We had a super time here, Sarah was very welcoming and the house was beautifully set for us. We had everything we needed and had a very comfortable stay. The location was great with parks, trains, pubs and shops all within walking distance. We hardly used the car as there was so much to do and see. We had a lovely week, thank you so much for having us!

Beautiful Winchcombe

We all fell in love with Winchcombe. There was so much to do in the immediate area, with fantastic walking and nearby attractions. The cottage provided an ideal base and worked really well for my family of three and our two friends, as we could each have a floor to ourselves! The downstairs table was a great meeting point for all of us and was the ideal place for hearty meals (provided by the nearby friendly local coop) and for card games later on. Needless to say, by the end of the week I was checking house prices and thinking about moving here!
