Great for a weekend away
All good, Nice and clean, with everything we needed for the weekend. Location is OK - a 20 min walk into Bourton, but very convenient for Hawstone Brewery. Instructions and access were all straightforward too.

Beautiful home from home. Faultless.
Lovely property. Absolutely spotless. Short and pleasant walk into the village. Comfortable beds and a nice garden that is totally safe for dogs - even Houdini dogs like ours! Will definitely come back. 11/10

A Great Long Weekend
We stayed at Cedar Cottage for a long weekend in February. The cottage was very clean, well equipped and well located to be able to visit a number of places and attractions in the area. This was our first visit to The Cotswolds and we will definitely return, and would stay at Cedar Cottage again.

Weekend in the Cotswolds
A comfortable cottage, well positioned for exploring the Cotswolds. A short walk to Bourton on the Water for a coffee. The cottage had everything that we needed and was very clean and well looked after.

Beautiful Cottage in the Cotswolds
We had a brilliant stay in Cedar cottage. Very clean, great modern facilities and perfect for a family holiday. Our dog loved the garden too. The location is lovely for exploring Bourton, Stow and Slaughters. Would highly recommend to anyone!

Lovely cottage very clean and spotless.
Everything about the cottage was perfect, just for us it was slightly out of way but that was because my husband had a hip replacement 4 months ago and was not 100%. Very spacious and well equipped.

Short break at Cedar Cottage
Cedar Cottage was just right for our short break. It was very well equipped and comfortable. The layout worked really well as we had 2 dogs with us. The utility room was a big asset.

Stay at cedar cottage
This was a lovely house but although says Bourton it’s 1mile from town which meant driving and no taxis available due to Cheltenham festiva House for this reason would not be a first choice next time

Brilliant modern house in a great location
You always wonder if the house will look like the pictures and this one really does. We had a lovely stay with our family and a dog. The kitchen was a perfect size and all the bedrooms are good sizes as well. The green was just right for the family and the dog and a nice sun trap. The location is great just a short 10minute walk into the centre of the village as you can take a short cut down the footpath. It was lovely to do this in the evening to walk the dog and see Bourton-on-water a bit quieter as sometimes on a hot day it can get very busy.

Wonderful stay, beautiful Cotswold home with all the comforts of home.
Lovely family home with everything you need for a long weekend stay. Beds are comfortable and location is quiet. Kids loved the games that were provided. Only negative is that the home is slightly further out of time than I thought so you have to have a car.

What more could we ask for
Cedar Cottage was so comfortable and the standard of everything is excellent. The owners had equipped it to a very high standard and had thought of everything. We had excellent nights sleeps in super comfy beds. Thank you for letting us stay.

Lovely cottage
Great property in fantastic location. Very responsive when we couldn’t work out the heating - our fault we tried to make it too complicated. Allowed us a late checkout. Very well stocked with all the basics and lovely garden

Home from home
A lovely home away from home, which had just about everything you could ask for in a holiday home. It was a little noisy first thing in the morning, being on the edge of a small industrial estate, that said there was very little noise for the rest of the day. Other people have commented on the distance into the village, we are in our 70’s and it took 13 minutes at a leisurely pace to get there. It took even less time to get to Hawkstone brewery, (but maybe a bit longer on the way back)

A very comfortable stay
We booked Cedar Cottage last minute as Sykes Cottages cancelled our booking at the last minute, and while it wasn't the idyllic cottage in the Cotswold that I had hoped for, it was a very warm, cosy and comfortable retreat. We were a party of 4 adults (2 couples) and found the house to be the perfect size. Could be a bit tight with 6 adults. It was well equipped and contained everything we needed (basic instructions for the oven would be helpful). Being a new build it was modern, in excellent condition and warm with plenty of parking. The house is well located on the edge of Bourton on the Water with easy access to the town and lots of different walks. It is on the edge of the industrial / retails area so can be a bit noisy, imagine more so in the week. The cleaning company were our point of contact and were very helpful and allowed us an early check in at no extra charge. A couple of things to note: the ensuite toilet has no lid. Needs replacing!! Well established cobwebs in several rooms. Needs new garden furniture before the summer. Overall it was excellent value for money and we wouldn't hesitate to stay there again.

Lovely cottage in Bourton on the water
My husband and I stayed here with my parents and their dog. It was perfect and very homely. It had everything we needed, was clean and very comfortable. The village was a 15-20 mins stroll, which my parents struggled with but we could drive in 3-4 mins and finding parking wasn’t an issue. We loved exploring the village and nearby villages (Cirencester and Stow-on-the-wold). There was a perfect array of shops, pubs and restaurants in Bourton to find something to suit us all. The contact before hand to make arrangements was prompt, friendly and helpful. Would recommend this place as a great base to explore the Cotswolds.

Mid week stay
We were 4 adults & dog,would have found the sleeping & sitting arrangements tight if there had been 6 of us.The third bedroom barely had enough room for a double bed.Great having a utility room,garden would have been fine if needed.Parking for 2 cars down side of house easy.Despite being on the edge of Bourton Industrial estate we found the location great,walks galore.footpaths in every direction.Easy stroll into Bourton, 15mins, great pubs.Most dog friendly place we have ever visited.We were all aware of the traffic noise early in the morning,would certainly not deter us from booking this property though.

Lovely house but missing a few essentions
Our stay at Cedar Cottage was overall very pleasant experience but a few things let down what was a very nice place. It advertised having a slow cooker but it didn’t have one and the caretaker never came back to us on this point. It was missing basics like oven gloves, black bin bags, etc. There was a single frying pan which for a property accommodating 6 people is unrealistic. Finding out information about the house before booking was painful - relatively simple requests for cot size that was provided and stair width (due to stair gates not being provided) had to be requested numerous times before finally being received a couple of days before the stay. The above aside, the house was lovely, beds very comfortable and we had a lovely holiday.

House lovely, garden a mess.
We had a fantastic holiday and the house itself is lovely and well equipped. The garden is a mess, overgrown and neglected. It is stretching credulity a bit to say '15 minute walk to the village,' double that time would be more accurate! We tried it once and used the car after that, adding to the traffic problems in Bourton!

6/10 Okay

A little disappointing
A friend and I recently stayed 2 nights at Cedar Cottage. On the face of it this should have been a pleasant stay and whilst we enjoyed our short stay in terms of meeting up after not having seen each other for ages, we were both pleased not to be staying any longer. The beds were comfortable and the toilets and bath were clean, as was the kitchen in terms of immediate things such as utensils etc. However the house had the feel of somewhere where attention to detail was slipping and the house needed a deep clean. The soap dispenser in the downstairs locker was full of mold and therefore unhygienic to use and cannot understand why this hasn't been commented on my previous users as it had clearly been there some time. We left the said dispenser out with the guest book for the cleaning company to rectify. The majority of the other soap dispensers had been watered down hugely making it more difficult to use and appears really penny pinching. There were numerous cobwebs around the house with a particularly large one that could be seen in the main bathroom and appeared they had been there some months, demonstrating the lack of attention paid to this house. The one pillow I used had blood on it when I removed the pillowcase upon leaving and this pillow was without a protective cover that could be washed. I didn't check the others. The larger radiator in the kitchen wasn't working which was needed during the cold snap when we were there leaving the kitchen and dining area very cold and not possible to sit and eat. The extractor fan in the ensuite didn't go off even when the light was off meaning out was noisy all through the night. In addition the shower tray in the ensuite needed a good scrub. The placing of throws on the sofas to cover the seat pads does again reduce the appearance of the place making it look quite shabby and were quite frankly a nuisance to constantly adjust. I sent an email to the cleaning company on the second night who were our contact for our stay so that our points would hopefully be corrected for the next people stying but I've not even had the courtesy of a reply. Finally, in the 20 years of staying in holiday cottages I have never stayed in one where there was not even a pint of milk in the refrigerator to welcome us. As I said in my title, all rather disappointing and neither my friend nor I felt we had value for money during this stay and do not feel that we would book tis place again or recommend to anyone.
