We booked Appletree Cottage for a birthday weekend away for 5 friends. The local is perfect - a 2 minute walk from the centre of Bourton-on-the-Water but down a side street so blissfully quiet. For such a great location, it was even better to have off street parking at the back of the property. The cottage has a cosy lounge with a dining table, well equipped kitchen, downstairs bathroom, and three bedrooms upstairs (one with an en suite). The house was spotlessly clean and beautifully furnished. There were some nice touches like a box of local farm eggs, some delicious shortbread and ground coffee (although sadly no cafetière to use it!) on our arrival. Bourton has many great restaurants and cafes, plus small independent shops, the motor museum and the miniature village. Definitely worth a visit!
