Enjoy a bijou and boutique break in the Cotswolds with Corner Cottage - a gorgeous, 17th century timber-framed holiday home with contemporary facilities that blend seamlessly with its Grade II listed charm. The cottage sleeps 3 (+1) across two bedrooms and has an immaculate modern kitchen and shower room, contrasted with the cosy living-dining room with the impressive, original inglenook making a grand statement.

Relax in the sunshine on the lawn and patio, with shade offered by the apple tree. There is adjacent off-street parking with the famous National Trust-owned Fleece Inn only a two-minute walk away. While Corner Cottage is within the ancient village of Bretforton, the modern and bustling Stratford-upon-Avon is within easy reach, as well as picture-perfect Broadway and the northern side of the Cotswolds.

Lovely cottage, had everything we needed. Nice location for attractions in the area. The Fleece Inn was just a stones throw away for great pub grub.

We had a lovely stay in this very charming cottage. All rooms were cosy and comfortable, the Kitchen had everything you need and was well equipped. It was so nice, we are already planning our next visit.

Wonderfully located in Bretforton, near the fantastic National Trust-owned Fleece Inn, it is well located for visiting Stow on the Wold and the other surrounding villages. Well provisioned, with comfortable sofas and beds, WiFi and TV with board games and books to hand, we would thoroughly recommend it. We would have liked it a little warmer, as the heating in the living room fell somewhat short of providing the comfort we were hoping for. An additional heater or radiator would have helped during the sudden cold snap that we experienced, and we hope the owners take this suggestion on board. Otherwise it would have been truly perfect.

(Not sure which way the likert scale works. 5 ito me is excellent all round.)Nicely furnished cottage in a lovely quiet location with parking. Comfortable sofas & bed. Nice cake as a welcome gift. Easy access with door code for self check in. Lots of nice gardens & houses to visit nearby. Great for hopping over county lines. Nice NT pub in the village & how nice to see a community run shop in the village that was well stocked run by lovely ladies.

The cottage was absolutely perfect for our recent stay, it is very well equipped and cared for.
We would be happy to return next time we are visiting family and friends in the area.
An added bonus is the Fleece which is always a go to during our visits for lunch or dinner and the local community shop is also very well stocked with any essentials you may need.

A 10 from the beginning to the end. The cottage is perfect for a chill week. It's very cozy and you feel at home from the moment you set foot in it. It's very comfortable and the location is perfect (Bretforton is a very nice village/community that we liked very much). We would love to come back soon!

We had an amazing weekend in Corner Cottage. Tucked in a very pretty village, we followed the easy instructions on parking and getting in. The cottage is really quirky and beautiful. Lovely furnishings, well equipped kitchen, great shower and comfy bed. We strolled to the Community Shop which has all the things you might need for your holiday although there was milk, tea, coffee etc and some delicious Battenberg left for us. I had booked a table at The Fleece literally two minutes away for Friday night. The pub itself is fascinating. Dog friendly. Lovely beer garden, efficient friendly staff and perfect for that summers evening. The food was excellent- reasonably priced and a good choice on the menu. We actually booked again for the Sunday (I do advise booking to avoid disappointment- they were busy all the time). Then we went to the Social Club (also dog friendly) and they were really friendly and welcoming so we stayed there for a while and would have returned if we had found time. We would absolutely recommend staying here and I am hoping that we will return again soon.

Our first stay at Corner Cottage using Bolthole Retreats was as usual excellent, we have used Bolthole many times in the past.Corner cottage was everything we needed for a holiday in the beautiful Cotswolds. Bolthole are very easy to deal with and nothing is too much trouble. The only thing I would bring to the cottage owners attention is that in the kitchen the addition of a microwave and maybe a frying pan would make the whole breakfast experience perfect. Definitely be booking Corner Cottage again in the future.

The cottage was just perfect for our four days away in the Cotswolds. The cottage had everything we needed and was decorated sympathetically with very good quality finishes (particularly the bathroom). The information booklet was also extremely helpful and the local area was very easy to get to. We went to a lovely pottery making class with Honeybourne Pottery and visited Broadway one of the days which was also lovely. Would highly recommend a stay. The village also had a gorgeous pub just minutes down the road with very friendly staff and amazing food!

What a lovely cottage in a pretty peaceful area. We had a very comfortable stay didn't want to leave.
Went to The Fleece inn a few times and had really nice food and time. Great location for visiting lovely villages like in Cotswolds broadway and Bourton on the Water and many more.

We had a lovely relaxing stay. The cottage was well furnished and equipped. The area is very quiet and within easy reach of the Cotswolds. Maybe consider enclosing the small front garden to protect dogs, as you permit pets.

Corner Cottage was the perfect place for us and our dog Hector. Small, but perfectly formed! Great location with easy access but off the main road so wonderfully quiet.

Wow, what a wonderful cottage with everything we needed for a few days away. Set in the old part of the village surrounded by equally beautiful cottages, church and The Fleece pub. We enjoyed an evening of folk music at the pub where we found everyone friendly and welcoming.

A lovely timber framed cottage of character, renovated beautifully and with own parking for two cars. Modern bathroom and well equipped up-to-date kitchen. Just a two minute walk to The Fleece Inn, a lovely old pub with excellent food.

Cosy cottage in an excellent position for visiting the surrounding countryside and villages. Scrumptious cake on arrival too along with milk and other items. Very much appreciated. Enjoyed our visits to the Fleece Inn. Excellent village pub just on our doorstep.

My husband, our 2 young girls and I loved our stay at Corner Cottage. Immaculately clean, very comfy beds, towels, sheets and in a lovely part of Bretforton. Great shower, quiet, full of character cottage.

There were a few things absent though and for the sake of other travelling families, I list them here as when staying a week with children, it could really do with these additions: no kitchen roll or cling film, 4 dishwasher tabs for a 7 night stay, only one tea towel, only one bathroom hand towel, no drying wire or line/pegs so everything must be tumbled, like it or not, no cooking oil, cheese grater, baking tray, shower slip mat, microwave or bin bags. For an otherwise well-equipped cottage, these were surprising oversights which hopefully will be sorted by the owners.

Thank you.

Thank you for your review and feedback. We have passed this on to the owner who will review your points raised. We're sorry you could not dry your clothes outside, unfortunately, this is due to the tiny garden. Again due to the size of the kitchen there is not a microwave as it would take up worktop space. The owner has asked the housekeeper to check if the grater has gone missing and also to check that there are enough supplies of other items.

The location of the cottage is very good, with the Fleece Inn being only thirty seconds walk. Although the cottage is old, the recent refurbishment has been done to a high standard and it provided a lovely base for our family and dog.
Would stay again




Overall a good stay but ground floor had wood lice everywhere as we walked in.

Generally a nice stay but we did walk in to around 20-30 lice as we entered the cottage. Some dead, most alive. Some in the bathroom, on the curtains but most in the kitchen.

We contacted the owner who apologised.

Overall the cottage was nice, mostly clean (dusty in parts) and nice and quiet (if that’s what you want - we did).

Initially Corner Cottage appears wee, but once settled in it was cosy, comfy, well laid-out and all we needed for a very chilled stay. The bedroom is large, airy and has an excellent bed. The kitchen was all we needed to enjoy home-cooked meals using local farm produce. Snuggled on the sofa in the characterful living room was restful. The location is great. The Fleece Inn worth a visit and walks, cycle-rides and lovely Towns all accessible.
