Lovely place
We only stayed for 3 nights but found "The old greenhouse" to be a great place to stay. It was very warm, comfortable and clean and the local pub served excellent food. A good location to explore this lovely part of the Cotswolds.

Prettig klein huisje in het mooie cotswolds
Heel prettig verblijf gehad. Rustige omgeving, aardige gastheer en een vriendelijke hond die af en toe komt kijken, als je de poort open laat. Anders niet. Hele idyllische omgeving.

So peaceful
What a beautiful property set in a very quaint village. I had a really relaxing short stay and loved the attention from the resident dog who I would have happily taken home with me. The owners were really helpful, thoughtful and friendly. The property was very clean and well appointed. The location is superb and the scenery beautiful. Some of the lanes on the way were a bit narrow but, just take your time. I had a fabulous stay and would love to come back.

Just fabulous!
The Old Greenhouse was just perfect. Everything you could ever want in.a holiday home was there. Although a modern structure, the inside was cosy. There were lots of games and guidebooks to keep you busy The Tassimo pods, cans of g&t, fruit juice, milk and chocolate treats were a welcome surprise Andrew was an excellent host and was there to welcome us. His dog was so cute and scratched on the door for treats. However, ypu could shut the gate if you didnt want him Would thoroughly recommend this accommodation aa an excellent base to explore the Cotswolds

Fantastic stay, fantastic location, fantastic hosts
We had a great time staying at the 'Old Greenhouse'. The accommodation was exactly as described with some thoughtful additional touches provided by the hosts. Speaking of the hosts, Andrew and Sian were perfect - present but not overly present, relaxed and gave us great ideas of what to do in the local area. We really enjoyed our stay and would 100% recommend the accommodation, area and hosts to anyone of thinking of booking.

Exceeded expectations
My husband and I wanted a relaxing weekend away and the Old Greenhouse did not disappoint. Andrew the host, was amazing and made us feel very welcome. The property was well equipped with everything we needed and more. All the little touches from fresh milk to toiletries, they really thought about everything. We have stayed in many places but this by far was the best, by a country mile. Beautiful property in a tranquil location and only a 5 minute walk to the pub. A true hidden gem. For us, one of the highlights of the weekend was Hobson the dog. He welcomed us with open paws and popped over for a little doggy treat from time to time. We've had the best time and cant wait to return. Thank you all so much for an unforgettable stay

Peaceful spot in the scenic Cotswolds
We stayed a week here, using it as a base for us to explore an area of the Cotswolds we had previously missed. It’s a very clean, comfortable and well equipped cabin. There are some great walks and lovely pubs nearby, and Andrew and Sian were very helpful in pointing us towards lesser known areas and local sites. Had a wonderful stay!

Everything you need and want from an old greenhouse!! Andrew was at hand for all queries, be it about tv instructions or directions to local areas. The aroma from the garden after rain saturated the senses and we soon named it our slice of zen.
