Overview

Bourton-on-the-Water is one of the most popular destinations in the Cotswolds region with the gently flowing River Windrush running through the centre of the village and crossed by attractive little bridges. The area is great for families with Birdland Park and The Model Village, a 1/9th scale replica of the centre of the village, all within half a mile of the property. The surrounding countryside has an abundance of walking trails with access to The Cotswold and Winchcombe Way from the village. The area has Cotswold Farm Park and many National Trust properties to explore nearby including Chedworth Roman Villa (10 miles) and Snowshill Manor (12 miles). The beautiful village of Stow-on-the-Wold is 4 miles away and well worth a day trip and Regency Cheltenham is just 15 miles away.

This was an excellent location and we appreciated the fact that we had off road parking. The property was very well equipped and clean. We were short of nothing that we wanted and had a reasonably comfortable and warm week given how chilly it was outside.

We had a marvellous stay at Kookaburra cottage, it was perfect as a family of 3 (two adults and a baby), our dog, and two friends, and I think would have comfortably slept two more also. The cottage is beautifully presented, cosy but spacious enough, clean, and has everything you need. Heather's guide book was great for information on the local areRead morea, and he was very helpful in communication with us too. It's a very short walk into bourton town, and plenty to explore in the area. Thank you! Hide

Fabulous cottage - an easy flat walk into the High Street. Cottage a real home from home, really comfortable and extremely well equipped. Great outside space for to enjoy in warmer weather. Lovely walks nearby and convenient for visiting other local towns/villages. Ate out in The Mousetrap and The Old New Inn - both excellent. Best coffee from The Read moreBakery on the Water.

I would highly recommend this cottage. It is exceptionally clean and in a fantastic location - a short walk from the town centre. The owner is easily contactable if you need anything and he is also very kind. I am sure we will be heading back for another stay in the future some time.
