Beautiful cottage in fantastic location

Everything about Bumble cottage was fantastic. The property was spotless and we even had call saying we could check in earlier if needed. The cottage is light bright and airy. The furniture was really comfortable for us to relax together in the evenings and the beds were large & very comfortable. This was the perfect holiday and location. Easy to walk to town plenty of local restaurants and shops near by. Great garden for the dog and we were 4 adults staying and plenty of space for us all. Would highly recommend to anyone and will definitely be back. Best holiday for years.

Very disappointed

A very tired, not very clean cottage. The fridge and freezer had not been defrosted in aged. Also it smelt !! The lawn was over grown, and the patio was filthy, with a carpet dumped in the summer , in view of the cottage. Both the downstairs loo, and the shower room upstairs had grubby floors, with ill-fitting toilet seats. All in all, disappointing- we left a day early.

Beautiful cottage

Stunning cottage in a stunning village will definitely return to this property. We were very lucky and had a fabulous week of hot weather. The place had all the things you need to cook some lovely food, we also went to the white lion for Sunday lunch which was pricey but lovely also recommend the Indian restaurant and we love the Chinese take away for a good value treat. Winchcombe is such a pretty place and so nice it’s quieter than Broadway and burton on water which we just visited for the day but we’re happy to come back to a slower more laid back village.

Lovely cottage ideally situated for exploring the Cotswolds

Bumble Cottage is a real “home away from home”. The kitchen is well stocked with pans and crockery and we cooked every night although a few more mugs would have been useful. It is on a fairly busy road but the traffic noise is not noticeable at the back of the cottage and dies away at night. As others have said parking can be tricky at times especially if there is a wedding at the church, but we did manage to park every day within sight of the cottage. The beds were really comfy ensuring a good nights sleep was had by all. Sudeley Castle is a lovely day out and only a 15 minute walk from the cottage.

A peaceful few days

Bumble Cottage is a lovely mix of old and new. The modern extension at the back has bi fold doors opening onto the small enclosed garden, which is very peaceful and quiet. The older snug at the front would be a cosy and warm space in winter. The beds are very comfortable and the cottage is generally well furnished and equipped. Winchcombe has a good mix of independent shops and is a great base for walking in the surrounding beautiful countryside. Parking is on the road and can be a bit tricky at times. There were a few minor maintenance issues that need attention like the kitchen tap which was loose and the front door only has one usable lock rather than the three that it should have. Whilst attractive the garden also needed tidying up and attention in general. This cottage is great if you have a dog as the garden is fully enclosed and safe but it does have 3 steps. No problem though if you have a young active dog!

A lovely cottage in a great location

This cottage was ideal for our needs. Well equipped, with a very pleasant garden and in walking distance to amenities. We loved Winchcombe, especially as it was much quieter than other Cotswold towns and just as pretty. Our only negative comments are: we specifically requested twin beds rather than a super king, but found that a super king had been made up when we arrived; and there were no blue recycling bags under the sink for us to use. Notwithstanding these hiccups, we had a lovely weekend and would recommend for future stays.

5 days in February

We made a late decision to spend the February half term in the Cotswolds. After a brief search online we found Bumble cottage. It was quaint, yet spacious, warm and cosy, and all the furniture was very comfortable. The garden was perfectly safe and secure for our 4 legged friend as well. Winchcombe as a small town had everything we needed, and we were in a great location to visit Stratford Upon Avon Bourton on the Water and we also enjoyed a lovely walk from the cottage itself. When we did have questions, the customer service team and property manager were quick to respond, helpful and accommodating. No waiting around on phone lines or long waits for email responses We would definitely recommend this property to anyone wanting to visit the Cotswolds.

Very Good Cottage

Enjoyed our stay at Bumble Cottage. Lovely warm cottage and well equipped. Comfortable bed and very quiet as we used the back bedroom. The back garden being fully enclosed so that we could let our dog out on his own. All being well we hope to return next January, to celebrate our birthdays in January.

A cosy, characterful cottage in great location .

Beautifully styled, cosy cottage, well equipped meeting all of our needs. Nice and clean. However, the bathroom cabinet had clearly been missed inside (we needed to clean it) and some used towels had been left from a previous occupant hooked on the back of a bedroom door. In the extension there was a water leak which was understandable bearing in mind the weather (we reported by leaving a phone message during our stay but didn’t get any response). These were minor issues that didn’t impact on our stay. We had a great time and hope to visit again.

Autumn stay at Bumble Cottage

A very well equipped and comfortable cottage, in a great location close to the centre of Winchcombe, with plenty of drinking and eating places to choose from. Very relaxing for both humans and pets with a small secure garden, Looking forward to staying here again in the near future.

A little gem of a cottage

We had a wonderful 4 night stay (2 of us and our dog) in this very cosy cottage. Highly recommended as a comfortable living space in the heart of Winchcome. Fab location for exploring the Cotswolds but lovely walks in and around Winchcome if wanting to stay close by. We hope to come back.

A lovely cottage

We had a lovely stay, the cottage had everything we needed and was in a lovely location. Lots of nice places to visit nearby and parking outside the house was no problem. We thought the property was beautifully presented, however we did feel it needed a good deep clean (the floors mainly). We visited at the end of the summer so put this down to a busy summer period and the fact that dogs are allowed (knew this on booking so not a criticism). Overall we were very pleased with the property and had a lovely stay.

Lovely cottage in a great location.

We found the cottage very comfortable, with pleasing decor and soft furnishings. The kitchen was well equipped and the living space and garden made for a relaxing stay. The cottage is in a super location with shops, cafes and pubs all a just short walk away. It's also positioned well to embark on walks through the countryside.

4 night stay

We enjoyed our stay at Bumble Cottage, which we found to be comfortable and very nicely modernised. We didn’t make use of the snug but imagine it would be cosy in winter. We made full use of the extended kitchen, dining, living space which we found light and airy. The beds were very comfy and plenty of hot water in the modern shower. The only downside was parking on the road, which we knew when we booked, but it was busy at times. The garden was a lovely quiet spot to relax and it was great that it was fully secure for our dog!

Lovely little place

Really nicely appointed cottage. All you needed for a self catered stay, Comfy furniture and beds. Lovely garden for humans and dogs and really secure. Only think we could think of it missed was an ice cube tray!!!! Would love to return as not only the cottage but the town has all you need from supplies to nice walks. Only slight downside is parking on the street but as others said always a space , just may be a bit down the road. One door lock needed a bit of attention but we managed to sort before Sarah arrived to rescue us! Just hope in giving a good review it is free when we want to come again!!!!!

Lovely cottage, perfect location for exploring the Cotswolds.

As soon as you walk into Bumble 0Cottage you feel at home. It's well equipped with everything you need., and there was also dishwasher tablets, washing tablets, tea coffee and sugar and the owner had left milk and biscuits too. There was a fan which we were very thankful for as we stated during the 2 day heatwave. The views from the garden and back bedroom are breathtaking. The cottage is very well looked after and the decor is very good.

Happy Customers!

Loved our stay at Bumble Cottage. Just perfect and fully equipped with everything we could need. I was a bit worried about parking but this was not a problem - plenty of on street parking. The Corner Cupboard pub is very welcoming too and we enjoyed a Chinese take away one night which was yummy!

Lovely cottage in a lovely location.

We've just recently returned from a lovely week at Bumble Cottage. The Cottage is nice and spacious with the extended lounge/kitchen at the back. Beds were lovely and comfortable and there was plenty of storage for a family of 4. There was washing capsules for washer, dishwasher tablets, washing up liquid, hand washes, toilet roll, bin bags, salt and pepper. There was also an iron and ironing board. There is an array of games/puzzles and books in the cupboard too. The garden is well kept and quite spacious. It was quite difficult to get parked outside the house but we always manged to get parked on the street somewhere. Bumble cottage is just a short stroll to the shops and pubs of winchcome. If you're wanting to eat in any of the pubs I would recommend booking in advance as we struggled at times to get a table. We used the Chinese twice and can highly recommend. Unfortunately the fish and chip shop was closed the whole time we were there. All in all we had a very nice time at Bumble Cottage.
