About this property
The Bullseye in Stonehouse near Stroud in Gloucestershire offers you an exceptional holiday home just made for entertaining. Perfect for a large gathering of family and friends, perhaps for a special occasion, this property really does have that all-important ‘wow’ factor. Step into the massive open-plan kitchen/diner and the designated chef will be over the moon with the range of facilities on offer including an interactive American-style fridge/freezer and all the latest top of the range appliances. Pour a glass of your favourite tipple and pull up a chair at the stylish breakfast bar to keep the chef company and then when the food is ready to serve, take a seat at the elegant dining table, no doubt the scene of many a memorable dinner party. Throw open the patio doors and step onto the fabulous terrace area complete with a hot tub, an external games room with a bar, table football and a pool table. You can imagine spending a lot of time out here, soaking in the hot tub or trying your hand at pool. There is even a separate games room with arcade machines, an Xbox, and an interactive dart board, perfect for guests who want to carry on the party. With seven bedrooms to choose from, whatever combination of guests there are in your party there will be a bedroom to suit you all with a king-size with an en-suite, two zip/link doubles, a ground-floor double, two double rooms upstairs, a family bedroom as well as a slick bathroom. Tempting as it is to make the most of the facilities on offer at the house, The Bullseye is a great base for exploring the delights of Gloucestershire with the attractive town of Stroud just a few miles away where you will find loads of great shops and eateries and if you want to get away from it all, pay a visit to Stratford Park, 56 acres of grounds with lakeside walks and a leisure centre with an indoor and outdoor swimming pool. For some fantastic group activities to enjoy check out JDR Karting, 270 Climbing Park, or Gloucester Ski and Snowboarding Centre with something a little more sedate to be found at Hidcote Manor Gardens, Woodchester Mansion, and Painswick Rococo Gardens. The WWF Slimbridge Wetland Centre is also well worth a visit. Offering spacious accommodation and the added bonus of a hot tub and a games room, The Bullseye is the perfect destination for a truly memorable holiday.
The town of Stroud is known as the less commercial corner of the Cotswolds, a somewhat bohemian collection of buildings, squares and lanes, tucked into the green hills which once housed countless sheep during the town’s time as the centre of the Cotswold’s woollen industry. Today, Stroud welcomes visitors to its friendly cafes, quaint bookshops, independent shops and tempting eateries. Described by Jasper Conran as the ‘Covent Garden of the Cotswolds’, Stroud has a regular farmers' market, year-round programmes of music and theatre, a thriving arts scene and a state-of-the-art cinema. For simply relaxing, Stratford Park on the edge of town offers lakeside walks, indoor and outdoor swimming pools, and a museum. Head out of town to explore the five sweeping valleys which surround it, with country lanes just made for walking or cycling.

We booked a few months in advance with the property listing as having a hot tub and washing machine. When we had arrived at the house and tried to use the hot tub we had noticed no electrics were working outside in the âgames roomâ and the hot tub was also not working. We had communicated this with the owner who did attempt to resolve this by getting an electrician to visit however he was only able to resolve the games room electrics meaning the house which we booked for having a hot tub , was not usable. The electrician came back on our second day and still couldnât resolve the issue with the hot tub. He had said the owner mentioned to him it was a last minute booking and that the issues would take time to resolve. However this booking was not in fact last minute and I would have hoped as the owner knew these problems existed that they would have been rectified before we had our holiday. We booked this house specifically for the purpose of having a hot tub and this had ruined our stay. We also found that although listed, the property didnât have a washing machine which was disappointing for us for those needing it. We also had noticed quite a few exposed wires in the games room which we see as a potential risk. And in the downstairs room we were unable to have the main light on due to constant flickering which was sore on the eyes. I feel that this property needs some maintenance to ensure of a pleasant stay as the bathroom extractor fans were very noisy and quite a bit of mould in the upstairs bathroom. We were able to make use of the house however we would avoid it in future bookings as sadly the issues we had made the holiday we looked forward to to be quite disappointing.

Owners were quick to respond and helpful. We had a lovely time. There were plenty of beds and extra sofa beds, fantastic large hot tub, games and plenty of parking. We didn't have any problems and would highly recommend this property. Many thanks.
