Guests that stayed at this property said
The property is frequently described as clean, with specific mentions of a spotless condition. However, there are isolated comments about external cleanliness, such as dirty windows, which slightly detract from the overall impression.
The location is highly praised for its convenience to the High Street, quietness, and easy access to local attractions, making it a standout feature of the property.
The bed is consistently described as very comfortable, contributing positively to guests' experiences. However, some guests have suggested that the living area could be improved with additional or more comfortable seating, impacting the overall comfort score.
Facilities like the kitchen and shower are well-received, but there are several remarks about maintenance issues such as flaking paint, loose paving, and a lack of hot water upon arrival. These comments indicate room for improvement in this category.
Guests have noted thoughtful touches like Christmas decorations and the provision of mince pies, which add to the welcoming atmosphere of the cottage. However, it should be noted that such gestures are not guaranteed and may vary with each stay.

Could of done with a more comfortable lounge. The bed was very comfy. The location was brilliant. But..... the smell was awful. We had to keep the front door open the entire time because of the musty/dirty drains smell. Did report it and they placed lots of block air fresheners all over the place. This was another issue in itself. We left Thursday because we we had had enough by then.

A great location and excellent woodburner. The kitchen was well equipped. We did feel the 6pm arrival was very late especially on a dark winter evening with snow and ice on the ground. We would also suggest swapping the rocking chair for a more comfortable armchair. Much as we like cosying up on the sofa, for a longer break it would be nice to be able to spread out a bit more in comfort. All in all an enjoyable stay thank you.

Hufkins was great for lunch etc but there are plenty of other eateries to choose from too. The cottage provided everything necessary that we required and was very clean. We found it very quiet in the evenings even though just behind the High Street. We loved it. Burford is very medieval and walking round some of the little streets we found delightful and the Church is well worth a visit. The Wildlife Park also made a good day out. Hope to revisit!
