Absolute GEM of property!! The perfect Cotswold cottage! Immaculately clean and beautifully and thoughtfully decorated. Quite a bit bigger and even nicer than the photos show and ceilings are much higher than expected. No stooping required at all. Beautiful linens and excellently appointed/organized kitchen. So much attention to detail! We were so comfortable in this delightful cottage for our week in Bourton. Oh, and the GARDEN! It was to die for: irises at their peak followed by a profusion of peonies, lavender, thyme and forget-me- nots abound. Dawn and Bette took great care of us. What an utter treat!

A cottage full of character with a homely feel in a fantastic location. Its an easy short stroll to the village & having off street parking was great. Bourton on the Water is a quaint village & a great base for exploring the whole Cotswolds area. Our hosts Dawn & Bette were very responsive & helpful especially when we had a door key issue over a weekend and the welcome gifts are a lovely touch. We're glad we chose Well Cottage for our stay.

What a lovely, cosy cottage! Hosts were easy to communicate with and place was clean and a home away from home. My partner who's 6'3" struggled with the low ceilings but we assumed that would be the case so it was fine. Kitchen had salt and pepper and plenty of pots and pans. Street parking for second car was available. Highly recommended!

What a charming cottage, clean, well furnished, and conveniently located just one block from the River Windrush and the local shops and restaurants. It's a perfect place from which to explore Bourton-on-the-Water. Just one hiccup -- the latch of the washing machine broke with out wet laundry still inside it -- but Dawn was nice enough to take our phone call after 9pm at night, and let us know where we could locate the appropriate tools, and even offered to have a repairman come in the morning. We'd recommend this place to anyone looking for a weekend getaway here.

A wonderful stai in the Cotswolds

We spent a relaxing 2 weeks in this gorgeous period cottage. Dawn and Bette were excellent hosts and have attended to every need. Comfortable bedding, quiet and very cosy surroundings. Although only a couple of minutes from the main street it is very private and quiet. We made an excellent choice, we would recommend it to anyone looking for a base in the Cotswolds.
