Lovely stay

Really nice stay in excellent house. Ideal location, 10 minute walk from centre of Bourton-on-the-water. Lovely big kitchen/dining area and excellent living room. House is well spaced allowing large groups but also privacy with some en-suites and a 2nd floor. Good utility room and garden was nice even if it was a bit chilly to use it in March. Would definitely stay again.

Pre Christmas stay with family and friends

We had a lovely time in your cottage - surpassed our expectations and have already booked for next year. Thank you so much - and even when we managed to lock ourselves out the service was amazing.

Anniversary celebration

We booked the cottage to celebrate our Golden Wedding with the family. The house was perfect for our needs, my only complaint was that a gardener appeared in the garden without ringing the doorbell or letting us know he was coming in which could easily have resulted in my dog getting through the gate to the busy road. The cottage is also in need of redecoration

A wonderful holiday for our family of 10.

The Cottage is only a short walk from the centre of Bourton which is a delightful base for exploring The Cotswolds.

Overall we had a great stay. The location of the property was ideal for walking into the village.

Ideal location for village and surrounding areas. What we had was very good but inside and out would benefit from some tlc. Garden needed some attention and a coat of paint would not go amiss.

Well proportioned property for large families (12 of us )

Plenty of room for a family to spread out, and well stocked. My only observation was the lack of pantry cupboard space. Great location.

Easter Family break

The Property location was excellent and a short walk from all that Bourton has to offer. We had a great time with our family and the facilities at the property were excellent. The only negative was a few dusty areas inside.

Excellent weekend away

There were 8 adults and two children in our party and the house was excellent and satisfied all of our needs. The location was spot on a short walk into the village and short drives to adjacent Cotswolds locations We had to contact Sammi the housekeeper a couple of times and she was extremely helpful I fully recommend the company and house and would definitely return

Doesn’t get more central for Bourton on the Water!

Millstone Cottage is spacious and very well equipped. We were a group of six cyclists needing six individual rooms and the house accommodated us easily. We only cooked breakfast but found the facilities more than adequate for us and the large dining area meant we could all sit together. We parked 4 cars easily enough and could have got at least one more in. This is a big plus in Bourton, where parking is at a premium. The property is very close to the centre of Bourton (5 minutes walk) yet not hampered at all by the traffic or tourists. We called in taxis from Stow when we travelled to outlying villages. For your own comfort we’d recommend you take your personal pillows. The furnishings are high quality but the pillows a little hard. Other than that you’ll enjoy your stay here!

Thanksgiving family get together

The property was great for our requirements with large lounge and large table in kitchen/diner so that all 10 adults could get round for our family meals prepared and cooked in the well appointed kitchen. We had a great time and hopefully will be able to go back next year.

Perfect property for large group

There were 9 adults and the property was just ideal for our needs. A separate snug was lovely for those that wanted to get away from the TV and relax reading a book. Rooms were spacious and the kitchen was superbly stocked with everything you could possibly need.

Large family house.

Large house suitable for big mixed aged family groups. Located in a good location on the outskirts of the village with good access along rural footpaths to the village. Number of issues that were not resolved quickly and should have been identified before we started our holiday.

Fabulous cottage in a fabulous location!

Really enjoyable stay in a fabulous cottage which was spacious (there was 11 of us), immaculate and warm. Very well equipped kitchen, kids loved the snug and games cupboard, as well as the table tennis in the garage! Bourton on the Water has a lot to offer, pubs, cafes, shops and tourist attractions. We had a great time, loved the house, and hope to return!!

Birthday weekend in Bourton on the Water

This was a great place to stay with 9 of us in 3 generations. 3 en suite double bedrooms and a main bathroom adjacent to the other bedrooms Plenty of dining and lounge space. Kitchen could do with an extra fridge. We were going to have a barbecue but they were both very dirty and in need of a clean. We went to the pub instead, the nearest pub was a short walk and had great beers and wine at reasonable prices and good service. It was called the Mouse trap, much cheaper than the Willow in the centre of Bourton. A large garden with Boule court and table tennis in the garage. We tried to phone the contact number but we had NO ANSWER. Good job it wasn't an emergency! We enjoyed our stay and would go again. Thank you to the owners for letting us stay in their property

Another great long weekend

We have stayed here before and booked again as has 6 bedrooms and so convenient to walk to Bourton on the Water. Spotlessly clean and really comfortable for myself and my 5 friends. Off road parking for our 4 cars which is great too. Would definitely recommend.

Enjoyable stay in the Cotswolds

We enjoyed our stay, great position for walking into Bourton-on-the-Water. Our only issue was the dishwasher which did not clean properly, even after cleaning the filters.

Lovely cottage in a beautiful location

Millstone Cottage is a lovely property just a short walk from the busy centre of Bourton on the Water. It was spotless on arrival and provided very ideal accommodation for our group. The bedrooms were spacious and comfortable as was the lounge. The kitchen was very well equipped, providing everything we needed for our stay. I would definitely recommend this property.

Excellent accomodation for a special family wend

A most enjoyable wend stay at Milestone Cottage for my Dad's 80th birthday. The house in terms of location, accomodation and facilities were superb. Plenty of parking space for our cars. Kitchen was very well stocked with everything you could need. Enjoyed the open fire in the evening. Would recommend.

Wonderful location

We loved the house for our family holiday . Well equipped & comfortable . Its location is perfect for a morning walk around the village with the dogs then popping in at the bakery on the water for pastries & coffee. The facilities at the house were excellent . My husband made bread twice & we enjoyed relaxing with our family in the large lounge with the log burner . Perfect for my birthday celebrations .
