Poppy Cottage is a delightful, mid-terrace, three-storey, 18th Century cottage in the pretty village of Broadwell, lying just over a mile and a half from the popular Cotswold town of Stow-on-the-Wold. The cottage has been beautifully refurbished and styled, while retaining its original character and features a cosy living-dining room with a log burner and a separate kitchen overlooking a pretty courtyard garden. Poppy Cottage sleeps four in two king-size bedrooms, with one family bathroom. At the rear of the cottage is a sunny courtyard with a dining table and four seats. Just five minutes walk away is the Fox Inn and a picturesque village green.

Lovely stay in a great house with a great location. Very comfortable beds and kitchen is excellent. A little bit more cutlery would be great. The open fire was very cosy.

We stayed here for 5 nights as a family of four with youngish children. It’s a great little cottage, warm and cosy, with all of the equipment you would expect. The only thing that might be a consideration for any taller folk are the ceiling and door heights as it’s generally quite low (as a cottage should be!) but anyone over 6 foot will be stooping a fair bit. Broadwell is a really idyllic village and the pub (Fox Inn) is phenomenal. Nice walk (or short drive into Stow for shops etc).



Cozy and well located base in the Cotswolds

We are a family of four who stayed two nights at Poppy’s Cottage. The cottage is well located to explore the Cotswolds, and is in a very small, locals town called Broadwell, 5 min drive to Stow-on-the-Wold, 7 min drive to Burton-on-the-Water. We loved having cozy fires every night, extremely comfortable beds, and amenities like coffee pods and milk in the fridge. The heat took awhile to warm the place up, and the internet was not consistent, but neither worried us too much. We’d recommend staying here and would love to be back!

Poppy cottage is a small, well appointed terraced cottage in the beautiful hamlet of Broadwell. Although it lacks garden space it does have a tiny sunny rear courtyard. The cottage has many original features & quality fittings with two steep staircases up to the bedrooms, tricky for anyone with mobility issues. The bedroom on the top floor has original beams with very restricted head height in places. A real bonus staying at the cottage is The Fox pub being within 5 minutes walk, overlooking the village green & providing a warm welcome and fabulous fresh food. The peace and quiet of this lovely place is so very special.

What a delight little cottage in the true Cotswolds village unspoilt by the masses who clog the like of Stow that is a short drive or lovely walk away.
The cottage is lovely, a challenge at time if over 6ft!! Very well equipped and comfortable with a small sunny courtyard when the weather is right.
The cottage is small but does everything you need it do with a classic country charm.
The village has lovely walks around it and from Weds - Sun there is no need to leave the village as the The Fox serves fab food and local ales from Donnington Brewery.
Visit their brewery, it’s in a beautiful setting and of course great ales.
May book for a winter get away to make the most of the log burner!

Nice cottage for a short stay. We needed a longer stay so stayed intermittently instead. No real problem with cottage. Stairs steep and low beam going into top bedroom. Bathroom small but Bolthole Retreats were unhelpful following our mistake as to the size of the property. Being new to rentals we relied on photos and not floor plan. Found a spacious and well appointed AirBNB instead. In retrospect cottage was overpriced.



Very confortable cottage at the heart of the Cotswolds!

Hi
We really enjoyed our stay in the Poppy cottage.
The house was very clean but I noticed all the garbages of previous rentals in the outdoor storage place. This necessitate to be cleaned.
Kind regards,
Emilie Beck

Lovely cottage with quality fixtures and fittings. Good sized bedrooms with comfy beds. The only minor thing is the stairs could be problem for some people as they are quite steep. The few days we spent here we really enjoyed it.
