Stow House is a beautifully restored, late 18th Century holiday home in the historic market town of Stow-on-the-Wold. This three-storey, five-bedroom, end of terrace, Cotswold stone home provides the perfect combination of modern comforts with original charm, combined with tranquil colour schemes that create a luxurious living space. On the top floor is a magnificent bedroom suite, with an open-plan bathroom. To the rear, is a beautiful south-facing garden, with a small lawn surrounded by flower-filled borders, a pond and two terraces, providing the perfect space to relax in and dine al fresco. The house is a short walk from Market Square, with all its ancient history, and just half a minute’s walk to Stow’s best restaurants and pubs.

Lovely cosy house for family weekend, right next to all the Stow-on-the-Wold has to offer. Great wee

Lovely house, very comfortable for large family group. Great communication, easy to find. Parking in road behind - can manage without the car unless you want to visit other parts of The Cotswolds.
Lots of equipment in the kitchen - the only improvements we could suggest is a bigger freezer, and a ground floor toilet
Bedrooms cosy and comfortable. Main suite at top of house with open plan bathroom not to everyone's choice, but a lovely big bedroom
Stow is beautiful, everything in your doorstep. Great pubs, we had delicious pizza takeaway from The Sheep and Greedys fish & chips also great
Sunday lunch at The Kings Arms great value but book ahead as it is very busy
Would definitely recommend and look forward to a return visit

We had a fantastic weekend to celebrate Christmas with friends. Stow House was the perfect location; a cosy cottage right in the centre of beautiful Stow On The Wold. The house comfortably housed 8 adults, all of whom had an en-suite bathroom. The spacious and well equipped kitchen was more than sufficient for cooking Christmas dinner for 8 and the dining room big enough to seat us all. The only very minor points to consider are that parking is a bit restricted (one of our group struggled to find road side parking) and there isn’t a huge amount of freezer space. I can’t recommend this house highly enough, in fact we’re already considering booking it again for next year.



A perfect stay, in an amazing house

I booked Stow House for the weekend prior to my wedding in the Cotswolds and wow - it was everything we needed and more! As a family of 8, each room having an en-suite bathroom was honestly a life saver. The house was very well equipped with everything we needed in the kitchen and so incredibly clean. There were lovely communal spaces which worked really well as a large group, but also enough space for everyone to escape to when family time gets a bit much!! The location was perfect, right in the midst of the town without being loud at night.

An extra extra special thank you to the housekeeper Rosie - she went above and beyond for us. She was able to accommodate some last minute extra requests which were so appreciated. Communication with her was super easy, and she even went to the effort of posting back some items left at the property at her own expense. I could not thank her enough.

Could not recommend the house enough!



A beautiful house to get married from

We stayed at Stow house in the run up to our wedding and got ready and left from there the morning of the wedding. It was perfect, a home away from home.

Stow house is spacious with plenty of areas to relax and accommodate a large group staying there, the bedrooms are comfortable and all the amenities you need are provided.

If I was to suggest any improvements, extra lighting outside in the garden would be very useful. The storm candles were great but more light was needed to see where you were going. A stronger light system would be beneficial outside.

A bigger freezer is needed as we had brought with us bags of ice for drinks but had nowhere to store them as the freezer was really small.

If there was anyway of turning the downstairs cupboard into a W.C I think that would be beneficial also.





Wonderful!

We loved our stay at Stow House. It was very comfortable and well equipped and Bolthole retreats were very easy to book through. Would definitely recommend! Slightly odd having the free range loo in the master bedroom, otherwise a lovely house in a great village.

Great location; plenty of off street parking at the rear. Perfect for friends to get together. Oodles of glasses, crockery, mugs, cutlery etc. Great size dining room and kitchen. Linens and pillows were very good quality. The only minor downsides were only one tea towel (fortunately one of our group bought some from home with her) and a fire detector in the kitchen right above the oven and grill. Must have gone off at least 6 times, however it proved to be a talking point and much hilarity trying to stop the noise. Would recommend.

Thank you for taking the time to leave your feedback and sorry Stow House wasn't at the standard it should have been, a new property manager has now been appointed at Stow House.

Very comfortable, lovely bedrooms and bathrooms, kitchen very well equipped, and spacious, lovely sitting room, could do with better curtain or blinds as extra, all in all very cosy, we had a lovely holiday. Road is a bit noisy at night, and obviously no private parking for stow house. But very comfortable, and would love to return.



A gorgeous house in a fabulous location in this beautiful town.

We had a fabulous weekend at Stow House.
The property is immaculate, beautifully furnished and brilliantly well equipped with all the luxuries you could want.
Super comfortable beds with gorgeous linens in a great, central location in the centre of this lovely town.
We had one or two teething problems which the very conscientious owner sorted out quickly and with great care.
Would highly recommend.
