2 Manor Lodge Cottages is a delightful, 19th century, Cotswold stone cottage in the beautiful village of Paxford, near Chipping Campden. The cottage sleeps four across two bedrooms, with a family bathroom and downstairs cloakroom. The cottage is surrounded well as endless opportunities to walk or cycle in all directions. The private and secure garden and patio provide a welcoming outdoor space for al fresco dining and relaxation, while inside is a lovely living room with an open fireplace and a practical yet very inviting kitchen-dining area with French windows to the garden.

Lovely cottage for a weekend away.

A beautiful cottage… warm, comfortable and cosy, with a lovely garden and patio area, great for use during warmer weather I would imagine.
Bed in the master bedroom very comfortable.
Children’s play area only minutes away ( great if you have grandchildren visiting)
Good location… Blockley, Moreton -in Marsh and Chipping Campden within easy reach.
Reviews from others who stayed in September, mentioned facts that the toilet seat in the bathroom needed tightening and problems with the light in the shower… this is still the case. As we were only there for 3 nights, we felt we could cope with that, but worth a mention as they hadn’t been fixed and there would be time to repair them before new guests arrived.
Another review mentioned a lack of welcome pack… so we rang the day before we arrived to check what would be there… we were told there would be coffee, sugar, milk and tea bags… we did expect more than one tea bag for 4 guests though!

A lovel, comfortable cottage situated in a small, quiet vollage. Spotlessly clean.. Location is ideal for travelling to other Cotswold locations. We did feel there were a few things missing that we would expect for the price. No hand soap in bathroom or kitchen which we had to buy. No welcome products eg. bread, milk etc, although we know not essential, it would have been a nice gesture, glad we had stopped enroute to purchase these.
Would highly recommend this cottage.

The cottage is lovely, clean and has everything you need for a quiet getaway.
A couple of very minor things need fixing. Upstairs toilet seat needs tightening and the light over shower very temperamental- came on intermittently. Neither of which detracted from our stay.

The cottage is in a lovely position and good garden. Unfortunately it is a bit tired . Shower needs replacing as is grubby. Cleaning was not up to standard, no freezer.

We are very glad to hear that you liked the location and garden, however disappointed to read the points that you have raised. We have spoken to the owner and housekeeper who wish that you had mentioned these points during your stay as they would have been very happy to come out to the cottage. They have now let us know that these points have been rectified and they are looking into getting an additional small freezer.

This home in Paxford was well cared for and clean. Cozy and comfortably furnished. Everything needed for a nice week was available. The location is excellent; near Chipping Cambden and Broadway. Many beautiful villages in the area. Was very suitable for us to go cycling from. Very good price-quality ratio.

A lovely cottage which was exceptionally clean, very comfortable and beautifully decorated. Appreciated large king size bed and many thoughtful touches such as Christmas decorations and detailed information manual. Enjoyed the log fire and streaming services for cold evenings. Conveniently located close to Moreton in Marsh and Chipping Campden and local pubs. Will be good when the Churchill Arms reopensin the village.

Our 2nd time at the cottage - we absolutely love it and will return again! The cottage is cosy, nicely decorated and has everything you would need - even a big garden. It’s in a great location with good walks & lovely cafes nearby. Would highly recommend to everyone!



A perfect stay!

We had a wonderful and perfect stay in Paxford. The house is beautiful, tastefully decorated, and yet very practical. I would particularly note:
- a real cloakroom at the entrance with an annex containing WC, washing machine, and super dryer
- a very well-appointed house with everything you need (dishwasher, coffee press, microwave, oven, clothesline, hoover, etc.)
- a dog-proof garden
- safe stairs (the only one of the 7 places we stayed in)
- a very well-designed bathroom with a towel warmer to hold several towels. Shower AND bath. 2 WCs in total in the house.
Overall, a feeling of comfort and coziness. It's a place you want to stay in, not just use to spend the night. We were 3 adults but never felt cramped. The lounge is superb.
We stayed for six nights and hope to return for longer next time.
The three of us as well as our furry friends were sad to leave 2 Manor Lodge Cottage...

We had an amazing stay! The cottage is beautiful, clean and very well equipped. Would highly recommend for a relaxing stay in the Cotswolds. The care package which was left for us on arrival was a really nice touch and very useful. Would love to stay again.

The property was nicely presented and in a great location for us. It was well equipped and had everything needed for a self-catered cottage. A really pretty garden and the open fire was used each evening and gave a nice cosy feel.

There are a couple of things that have reduced the scores which, if fixed, would have made this a first class place to stay. We would recommend the cottage to others but the following could be addressed:
- the bathroom bin hadn't been emptied since the last guests
- there were cobwebs around a number of the curtain poles
- there was a large stain on the carpet in the main bedroom
- the toilet seat in the bathroom was loose
- There was also a strong smell of oil from the oil-fired boiler, not sure if that is typical but it was quite obvious in the entrance area.
- the sofa was quite grubby with just a general build-up of dirt on the arms
- some of the kitchen equipment wasn't clean - mugs and baking trays in particular
- there was no dog towel left as promised, although we had bought our own so not a major issue

We really enjoyed our stay here. It is an old cottage that has been neatly modernised and has everything that you need. The location is fantastic and we had great walks on Dovers Hill, around Broadway and the tower, and to/from the Ebrington Arms (great food- definitely worth a visit).



A Great Escape!

Really charming cottage to call home for a few days. Great location, very comfortable, nicely equipped, & super outdoor space. Thoughtfully set up and ready for your arrival. Close to beautiful countryside & places to visit. Would love to have been able to stay longer!

A beutiful spacious and clean cottage in a lovely village and great location for exploring other parts of the Cotswolds. Pub selling great food within easy walking distance. Also enjoyable 30 min walk to Vegetablematters which has a great farm shop and cafe that also caters for vegan/dairy free/glueten free etc. MAny pubs, restaurants and cafes in the area are very dog friendly too.
A visit in the chilly, rainy season didn't stop us enjpoying great walks and trips out. Will definitely return.
We bookled the cottage through Bolthole Retreats online which was easy to use and the guest portal gave all the information and payment access required. Any questions were answered promptly too. Great Customer Service.
