Escape to this untouched Cotswold wonderland for a stay at Stone Cottage where you can relax into a slower pace of life. Set within the quiet streets of Stanton near Broadway you are surrounded by warm golden stone cottages and miles of walking and riding trails. It is a place where you meet more walkers than cars and share a friendly greeting as you pass. Stone Cottage dates back to the 17th century and is full of character with original mullioned windows, a large inglenook fireplace with a wood burner and modern artwork. It has been wonderfully decorated with homely touches making it comfortable and welcoming. Perfect for two couples or for a romantic break in the Cotswolds, you will adore this truly special cottage in a magical location just a short walk from The Mount Inn and less than 4 miles from beautiful Broadway.

A perfect weekend retreat

Having grown up in the area, I always hoped I could visit and actually stay in the village! What a perfect find with Stone Cottage.
A perfect mix of a beautiful old cottage with modern amenities. Cosy and comfortable, it was perfect for us. Stanton is the epitome of all things Cotswold and the Mount Inn never disappoints!

Stone Cottage in Stanton is a perfect Cotswolds holiday home basically in any regard - that's really all there is to say!
But if I had to point out anything that could be even further improved: It would be nice having some spare towels (for the kitchen as well as for the bathroom), toilet paper and cosmetic tissues.

The stone cottage was the perfect blend of old world charm with modern conveniences
The bathrooms were spotless and the kitchen well equipped. The Mount Inn was walkable and had great food. The Cotswolds Trail runs directly behind the Inn and was a great place for a hike.

10am check out is a bit early for a 2 night stay especially if nobody else arriving that day. No silver foil provided for the oven/grill.
Otherwise perfect place in a gorgeous village.

Thoroughly enjoyable stay at the Stone Cottage in Stanton. Well appointed accommodation in an idyllic location. A period cottage with some period features, including squeaky staircase! Many pubs locally, most of which serving good value meals.

Stone Cottage is set in one of the most beautiful villages I've ever seen... The cottage itself is beautiful. However, be warned if your tall you might hit your head going up the stairs... There is quite a lot of wear and tear in the cottage, especially the walls/cracks etc. The cottage is comfortable, however could be finished to a higher standard for the cost per night.

The cottage is charming and beautiful although not appropriate for anyone with a mobility issue because of the steep and narrow stairs. The village is also charming and the Mount Inn is wonderful. We rent apartments and houses all over the world and are accustomed to the following being provided: two towels per person, at least one extra roll of toilet paper and paper towels, a little bit of laundry detergent, bathroom amenities such as shower/bath gel and 24/7 hot water and heat. None of these things are provided. The owners could charge just a bit more and provide these items which would make this rental much more convenient to travelers.

Thank you for taking the time to leave a review of your recent stay at Stone Cottage. We are very glad to hear that you liked the cottage and the location. However, we are disappointed to read the points that you have raised. With the stairs, we advertise on our points of note on our website listing that they are steep and narrow with a rope handrail making it unsuitable for those with limited mobility, this is also shown on our 3D tour. We have shared your feedback with the owner who wishes that you had reported these items during your stay as they would have been happy to provide them. They also wish that you had contacted them about the hot water and heating this is on a timer and you are able to boost this on the thermostat.

A beautiful cottage in an equally beautiful village

The village of Stanton is beautiful, we would love to revisit and for a longer period, to enjoy the local walking and of course the ‘pub’
The cottage itself is exceptional, in so many ways, and offers everything that we were hoping for on our trip to what is probably our favourite area to spend time.
My only problem relating to comfort was the very hard pillows, unfortunately I found these too uncomfortable and we went out to buy ones we could use.
We will certainly come to Stone Cottage again

Stone Cottage was exactly what it said on the tin…A bolt hole. A special comfort blanket for a short breakaway.

This cottage was a delight.

A very comfortable and stylish stopover in one of the most beautiful villages in the Cotswolds.

Arrival was easy. It should be noted the cottage does not have "Stone Cottage" on the outside, just a number. However it is easy to spot from the website photos. We found roadside parking to be easy on the quiet village lanes.

Very high quality fixtures and fittings throughout and the heating was quick to warm up whilst we got to grips with the wood burning stove. The kitchen was very well equipped and we enjoyed using the Aga. A good TV and Alexa added to the options for relaxing given the winter weather.

The bedrooms were stylish and the ensuite bathrooms a boon, along with the downstairs WC. High quality linens and towels.

We'd recommend the Mount Inn which is a short, if steep, walk up from the cottage. The food was good and plentiful, with friendly staff.

Small notes for improvement would be a) how to get the best out of the Aga and b) how to use the Qooker tap.

Stone Cottage was a wonderful place to spend a few days. Sitting on the High Street in one of the Cotswold's most beautiful villages, the cottage is comfortable, with all modern amenities; toasty warm, well-stocked kitchen, great beds and tasteful furnishings. But it also has historic charm to match the many ancient manor houses and cottages of the village. It sits alongside the Cotswolds Way, so there are great walks from the door - up the hill past a great local pub, the Mount Inn, towards Snowshill, or through the iconic village of Stanway towards Winchcombe. I visited in the autumn and the colours of the foliage and sky were incredible. There's a real feeling of freedom and beauty in the area - and for history buffs, check out the 12th century frescoes in the church at Hailes. A great retreat for some countryside peace and tranquility!

Stone Cottage was a beautiful place to stay for our visit to the Cotswolds! The view from the upstairs window was dreamy. The sound of horses walking up and down High Street transported us to another time. Stanton is a quiet, peaceful village in pristine condition with a classic pub at the end the road. The cottage was authentic yet nicely modernized and decorated. The kitchen had everything you need to cook a nice meal. We appreciated having outdoor patio space to enjoy the warm weather we had during our stay. We recommend that Bolthole Retreats provide a few more supplies — like dishwasher pods, garbage bags, dish towels—to help us keep the cottage clean while we’re there (we stayed 8 nights and had only one garbage bag and 3 dishwasher pods). We thoroughly enjoyed our stay and would highly recommend it!

What an exceptionally beautiful home. Now filled with great memories and fun times. The location is excellent and the walks are superb. It's a home I will return to again and again, as the area is held so close to my heart. With family connections, it makes it all the more memorable for me. What a wonderful Bolthole Retreat!
Thank you again for providing an opportunity for more beautiful memories to be created, grown & developed; which hold such deep personal meaning.

An amazing beautiful cottage set in a stunning picturesque village so peaceful only the sound of the horses going by.
The Mount Inn just down the road was first class the food and service was impeccable and everyone made us feel very welcome.
Leaving the cottage was so very hard my partner had to drag me kicking and screaming ha, ha.
We'll definitely return to this little piece of paradise.
Thank you to the owners David & Laura and Bolthole Retreats.
Claire and Dave.
