The cottage is very beautiful and has been styled perfectly. The positives of the cottage were its location. The layout was very comfortable and very clean. Plenty of room for our family to stay for a weekend. The negatives were that the heating was unreliable (which wasn’t ideal when travelling with a young baby), the temperature would drop dramatically as times and the only solution was to reboot the boiler (not ideal at 2am!) the oven initially took quite some time to heat up, so when trying to cook dinner on our first night caused unnecessary delay. There are a lot of steps up to the cottage which if travelling with the elderly could cause another issue.

Despite these concerns the manager who was on call for our stay was very helpful and responsive. The cottage really is beautiful and the fireplace was a real highlight. If the heating & oven were looked into i would be able to give a 5star review.

We stayed at Ford Bank Cottage to celebrate my Mum's 70th. There were 5 adults, a 2 year old and 3 dogs. The house was a perfect size for our party. The log burner in the living room made for cosy winter evenings and the house was really nicely laid out, with two ensuite bedrooms and a lovely downstairs shower room.

We visited some of the surrounding villages for walks and had a walk from the cottage around the gallops. It really was an excellent location and somewhere we would love to.go back to.

I would absolutely recommend this property.

We enjoyed a lovely weekend stay at Ford Bank Cottage. The house was lovely, well equipped and had a lovely feel about it.

The property managers were very good at customer service and responded to us very quickly when we asked questions during our stay.

Would love to return for a bit longer next time!

We enjoyed our week in Ford Bank Cottage over Christmas. It is very attractive, relatively spacious for a Cotswold cottage and has lovely bathrooms. It is also well located with a lovely view and 5 minutes walk from a pleasant pub. There were a couple of issues - we struggled with the oven and the instruction manual would have been helpful and the central heating kept switching off (we had to repeatedly press a button on the boiler to restart it).
It was not well equipped in terms of Christmas dinner - no platter and gravy boat. Also, the freezer needed defrosting and it was impossible to open some of the drawers (one was broken probably due to someone forcing it open).
