Myrtle House is a true home away from home nestled in the picturesque Cotswold village of Shipton-under-Wychwood. This welcoming holiday home has cosy interiors and ample living space including a sunroom; it is a wonderful space for socialising with friends and family.

Myrtle house is in the perfect location of Shipton under Wychwood. Plenty of amenities in this lovely Cotswold village. Excellent pubs within easy walking and a little shop directly opposite.
The house itself was perfectly adequate, but could do with an update. Carpet and soft furnishing’s definitely in need of replacing.
Major issue was the shower in the main bathroom. Impossible to use as thermostat was obviously broken and I would say a definite health and safety risk. The water is scalding!!

We all had a great time and it was very comfortable. There was 8 adults two small dogs and a toddler. Plenty of room for us all . A well equipped kitchen and requested a high chair.
The local area was great for walking and with dogs and three very nice pubs.

Overall the place was fine. It's in a pretty area and had plenty of room for our family of seven. Nice touches like wood in the fireplace and eggs/milk in the refrigerator were really appreciated. Be advised that there is a washing machine for laundry, but no dryer or drying rack. Owners should at least buy a drying rack for the house so laundry has a place to air-dry. The house could really use a deep cleaning. It wasn't terribly gross or anything, but it needs more than just tidying up between renters. We also had the bizarre problem of the shower water being incredibly hot and actually a bit difficult to turn down to a comfortable temperature. We eventually kind of got it working, but owners should take a look at shower water temperature and make sure its clear how to turn it down. At it was, it was fine, but if they fix those couple of things this place would really be outstanding.

Thank you Adam for your review of Myrtle House. We are pleased to read that overall you found the property to be fine, in a pretty area and had plenty of room for your family of seven. It is lovely to know that you appreciated the nice touches on arrival like the wood in the fireplace and provisions in the fridge. The owner has informed us that there is a drying rack at the property, which had been left in the garden and they will rectify the shower issue immediately. The housekeeping team have planned to carry out a deep clean in the next few weeks. We hope you will return to the Cotswolds soon.

The house was very comfortable and we enjoyed our stay. It was easy to find and well located, we had a good meal at The Wychwood.
The house was not as clean as we would have expected, quite dusty. The hot water was incredibly hot and the showers difficult to adjust which made them difficult to use.
We felt that there were not really enough mugs or glasses for a house sleeping eight people.

Myrtle House was a joy to stay in. Received a personal phone call from the house manager to let me know the house was ready and to give him a ring if I had any trouble with anything. There was a nice little welcome in the fridge; my kids really enjoyed the biscuits and milk. The garden was so lovely! Even though it's close to the road and therefore a bit noisy to sit out in the garden, the privacy hedge and beautiful flowers more than make up for it. The beds are very comfortable. With four bedrooms and plenty of living space we had room to spare. Highly recommend.

We really liked the place in terms of design, quiet location, and the availability of basic household needs. Breakfast was also provided (eggs, milk, cakes), in addition to a coffee machine, microwave, and bread toaster.There was washing machine, dryer and iron.
Having a sun room is a great idea, as well as an outdoor dining table, a grocery store nearby, and a bus stop in front of the house. The hosts are very helpful and quick to solve problems. In short, it was like we were in a beautiful dream.

We had a lovely stay at Myrtle house over Christmas. The house was very well equipped and of a good size to ensure all 5 of us weren't under each others feet. The bedrooms were all a good size with extremely comfortable beds and bedding. The Internet speed was fast considering we were in a village which please our son as he could play on his games console. All in all, we had a great Christmas and family get together.
