Gable Cottage was stunning, and in a perfect location, 30 seconds walk from The Mason Arms. The cottage was clean, cosy and well decorated. The owners left biscuits and milk on arrival, which was a very nice touch. My family and I had a lovely stay and would definitely return.

We stayed at Gable Cottage in mid November for my husband's 40th birthday, a lovely note was left along with a bottle of bubbly and cake and both were very quickly consumed! It was a lovely welcome and a lovely way to start the weekend away. Location wise, brilliant, not far to drive to all the tourist spots, the local pub is great and people were very friendly. The cottage is beautiful, typical Cotswolds look on the outside and so cosy on the inside, lovely little front patio and a great kitchen with everything you need. We would 100% stay again and looking to book next year at some point. Thank you!
