We had a lovely time in your cottage - surpassed our expectations and have already booked for next year. Thank you so much - and even when we managed to lock ourselves out the service was amazing.
excellent place for getting the family together, plenty of space and large table to get all 10 plus a 5year old around.

Overall we had a great stay. The location of the property was ideal for walking into the village.
Ideal location for village and surrounding areas. What we had was very good but inside and out would benefit from some tlc. Garden needed some attention and a coat of paint would not go amiss.

Well proportioned property for large families (12 of us )
Plenty of room for a family to spread out, and well stocked. My only observation was the lack of pantry cupboard space. Great location.

Large family house.
Large house suitable for big mixed aged family groups. Located in a good location on the outskirts of the village with good access along rural footpaths to the village.
Number of issues that were not resolved quickly and should have been identified before we started our holiday.

A great house to stay at
We found the house well decorated (it was Christmas), spacious and well set out. All the bedrooms were very well attended. The kitchen had most of the things you need and sharp knives plus space, for when there is more than one cook. The snug was a hit with our grandsons, as they could escape the adults.
The surprise was how crowded the village itself was. We had heard it was popular but we expected that to be more for warmer months. Talking to locals quickly dispelled that myth, plus all the people there. Be prepared to queue for most things, including the bridge, and you have to book the restaurants.
Did we all like the house, yes. Would we stay there again, no sure.

Easter Family break
The Property location was excellent and a short walk from all that Bourton has to offer.
We had a great time with our family and the facilities at the property were excellent. The only negative was a few dusty areas inside.

Excellent weekend away
There were 8 adults and two children in our party and the house was excellent and satisfied all of our needs.
The location was spot on a short walk into the village and short drives to adjacent Cotswolds locations
We had to contact Sammi the housekeeper a couple of times and she was extremely helpful
I fully recommend the company and house and would definitely return

Fantastic accommodation and location
This beautiful property and location were perfect for our family of nine adults. There was ample space both inside and out, and we had plenty of pots, pans, and crockery to cook most of our meals from scratch. The Range cooker was a real bonus!
Bourton-on-the-Water is a great location for exploring. We would often drive to nearby locations in the mornings and then do local walks in the surrounding countryside in the afternoons. We managed to cover about 30 miles in total, all from the doorstep of the cottage.
We would highly recommend this accommodation.
The property was great for our requirements with large lounge and large table in kitchen/diner so that all 10 adults could get round for our family meals prepared and cooked in the well appointed kitchen. We had a great time and hopefully will be able to go back next year.
There were 9 adults and the property was just ideal for our needs. A separate snug was lovely for those that wanted to get away from the TV and relax reading a book. Rooms were spacious and the kitchen was superbly stocked with everything you could possibly need.

Wonderful location
We loved the house for our family holiday . Well equipped & comfortable . Its location is perfect for a morning walk around the village with the dogs then popping in at the bakery on the water for pastries & coffee. The facilities at the house were excellent . My husband made bread twice & we enjoyed relaxing with our family in the large lounge with the log burner . Perfect for my birthday celebrations .

Fabulous cottage in a fabulous location!
Really enjoyable stay in a fabulous cottage which was spacious (there was 11 of us), immaculate and warm. Very well equipped kitchen, kids loved the snug and games cupboard, as well as the table tennis in the garage! Bourton on the Water has a lot to offer, pubs, cafes, shops and tourist attractions. We had a great time, loved the house, and hope to return!!

Enjoyable stay in the Cotswolds
We enjoyed our stay, great position for walking into Bourton-on-the-Water. Our only issue was the dishwasher which did not clean properly, even after cleaning the filters.

Lovely cottage in a beautiful location
Millstone Cottage is a lovely property just a short walk from the busy centre of Bourton on the Water. It was spotless on arrival and provided very ideal accommodation for our group. The bedrooms were spacious and comfortable as was the lounge. The kitchen was very well equipped, providing everything we needed for our stay. I would definitely recommend this property.

Excellent accomodation for a special family wend
A most enjoyable wend stay at Milestone Cottage for my Dad's 80th birthday. The house in terms of location, accomodation and facilities were superb. Plenty of parking space for our cars. Kitchen was very well stocked with everything you could need. Enjoyed the open fire in the evening. Would recommend.

Happy family weekend
Excellent base for our family of 11 + dog (delighted owners happy for us to take dog)
Millstone Cottage is ideally situated for a Cotswold stay.
Six well appointed bedrooms, lovely large kitchen-diner. And a lovely snug/games room for adults or kids, depending on who takes ownership first
We’d definitely return.
