We stayed at Ford Bank Cottage in early August and absolutely loved it. A beautiful place to stay – stylishly decorated and very well equipped. It’s only a couple of minutes’ walk to the local pub, which we also highly recommend – 5-star food and excellent service. Would definitely return

We loved the cottage and it's location. The house was very clean and the decor was lovely and tasteful. We loved the kitchen. Unfortunately, most of the table lamps didn't seem to work and the lamp over the fron door didn't have a bulb in it. We understand that England has had an exceptionally dry and hot summer, but the outside of the property really looked neglected. All the potted plants were dead and the garden plantings were messy and overgrown. The grass was dead. There were piles of brown shrub cuttings stacked that had not been removed. So being outdoors was not very appealing. The lavender borders were amazing, however! Any complaints we had, inside and out, could be easily fixed. Just needed some TLC.

We had a lovely stay although some difficulties in finding the place as Google map didn’t have the right location. The cottage had everything we needed and we did make a few delicious meals with the some of the local produce we bought in farm shops. The location was perfect was visiting all the beautiful villages in Cotswold. Our biggest problem was the parking as our mini got stuck in the gravel driveway so unless you have a 4x4… The driveway leading to the steps was also a little slippery due to the gravels especially when it was wet.

We really enjoyed on stay at Ford Bank Cottage and found it most suitable for our week's visit. Clearly the cottage is a "home" that is shared graciously by the owners with all the touches needed for guests. The location was a wonderful springboard for daily activities all throughout the Cotswolds, and having a "home base" that welcomed us back every day put us at ease for our stay. Rooms, beds, living areas, showers, outdoor sitting areas are all beautifully maintained and comfortable. The house manager was both attentive and responsive to quickly fix a hot water issue, and we had no worries during our stay. I would say we "followed the guide" left by the owners and probably went to EVERY ONE of her recommended walks, drives, and communities to visit. WE hope to be back soon and are grateful to StayCotswold Limited for helping to set this up. We would not hesitate to re-book this lovely cottage.
