The towels, kitchen cloth and glasses were all dirty. For example glasses were covered in a grease. This wasn’t a nice way to begin the trip- having to wash everything. Cottage has so much potential and is in a gorgeous area, but needs a little love. Not enough water for four adults to have a shower means it shouldn’t be advertised for this occupancy. If we were to book again it would defo have to be in the summer, it’s not a cottage for the winter.

Pretty cottage, although sadly very poor hot water system (even with the immersion heater on) which meant you could not have a bath and even two showers were a challenge.
The cleaning was not good either, dead flies on the window sill / seat in the master bedroom. All the window sills inside the cottage were also very dirty and cobwebs all over the place.

We enjoyed a 4 night break in this lovely cottage in Ebrington in the Cotswolds. Everything was as expected, the property isnt perfect but we didnt want it to be! A lovely log fire, comfy sofa and bed and a fully functioning kitchen and bathroom is alls thats needed.

Tythe Barn Cottage is lovely, with a sweet patio and attractive furnishings. And the beds & linens! They were SO comfortable - we slept amazingly well. Ebrington is a lovely little village and it was so quiet! All you could hear in the morning were the birds singing and we loved staying in a quintessential English thatched cottage! The kitchen was set up nicely but it would have been nice to have some food laid in, as there is no local market. We've stayed at other rentals where small gift baskets were provided, with a snack of some sort, a small milk, some fresh eggs. That extra touch, even if there was a slight increase in price, would be worthwhile. Arriving at 5 pm the first evening, we were glad that the Ebrington Arms was so close since we didn't think about needing to stop at a local Coop before-hand! We were able to have a lovely pub dinner our first night.

We did have a couple of other issues, however. As an American, I was totally confused by the heating & water systems. I'm sure the directions would make complete sense to any UK resident but, as an American, I couldn't make hide nor hair of them!

Also, as to the location: this cottage was advertised as "outside Chipping Norton". Chipping Norton is over 16 miles away from the cottage - almost 30 minutes by car. We wanted to stay near Chipping Norton as we were visiting locations in that area (Burford, Shipton-Under-Wychwood, Rousham). As a result, we spent a lot more time driving, since the cottage is actually outside Chipping Campden.

I do recommend staying at Tythe Barn Cottage - with a few caveats, as mentioned above.

Tythe Barn Cottage is a perfect spot for a weekend break or longer stay. The cottage has everything you need to be comfortable and cosy. The kitchen was well-equipped, the living area and bedroom well-furnished plus the bathroom was functional and clean. To wake up in the morning with the sun streaming through the window made a perfect start to our Saturday!

Two very small suggestions for improvement: the handle on the cupboard to the left of the oven was missing when we arrived (carefully placed inside the cupboard). This made opening the cupboard quite difficult and as it had the saucepans in it was needed quite a lot. It would be good to get that repaired. Also, though we very much appreciated having some 'starter' logs for a fire on the Friday evening we had to go out and find some more for Saturday. There was nothing in the folder about where to buy them but we got some information from a lovely neighbour so managed. However, I'd be happy to pay a bit more initially (or have this as an option when making payment in order to have enough wood for two fires and not have to worry about this on our precious Saturday.

We had a wonderful few nights at Tythe Barn Cottage. The place is small but perfectly formed. The kitchen was a good size and had everything we needed to cook dinner, including salt, pepper and oil to cook with! There were lots of fresh towels and an ironing board to use. The stable door was great as we could contain our dog but let some fresh air in and the garden was secure for our dog which was a worry less. We managed to sit in the evening sun a couple of nights which was lovely. It’s on-street parking but we managed to park relatively near the cottage which was handy.
The only negatives were 1. cleanliness - the windows needed a good clean inside and out and there were cobwebs everywhere. 2. The main double bed: it had a duvet cover on the mattress instead of a fitted sheet, which wouldn’t stay on, making it a bit uncomfortable. There was also a thick duvet on the bed which was a bit heavy for the summer, meaning we were hot at night. A fan would’ve been good to cool us down as it was a bit stuffy in the warm weather. 3. The garden needed a bit of attention. The plants in the hanging baskets were dead and the gravelled area where the table and chairs were needed weeding.
All in all, we had a lovely stay and we would stay at the property again.

StayCotswolds replied more than 1 year ago
Thank you for your feedback Hannah and we are pleased to read that you had a wonderful few nights at Tythe Barn Cottage. It is good to hear that the garden was secure for your dog and you managed to sit outside and enjoy the evening sun on a few nights. We will address the cleanliness issues with the property manager. Being an older period character cottage in the countryside cobwebs can quickly appear as soon as they have been removed. Also being a thatched period cottage and the heavy rain we have experienced recently the windows can easily become streaked and appear dirty. Thank you for your feedback regarding the gardening, we will ask the property manager to regularly check the garden and weed the gravelled area. We look forward to welcoming you back to the property again in the near future.
