Shipton Station holiday homes

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.

The Clapton-on-the-Hill Barn is fantastic. We stayed for three days at the beginning of June, while on holiday from New Zealand. Our London-based son, daughter-in-law, baby, and their whippet stayed with us in the main house, and on one night, friends from Bristol stayed in the Shepherds Hut. The property is beautifully furnished, both indoors and outdoors, and a full kitchen is equipped with plenty of kitchenware. The appliances are top rate. The beds are super comfortable with generous bathrooms. The garden was in full bloom.The location is top rate. We toured around many of the popular Cotswolds villages, but Clapton on the Hill is a secret to most tourists, so we really enjoyed the serenity of our location. If you do need to stock up with food etc, Burton on the Water is very close by. We really enjoyed walking around the hamlet – especially the gorgeous church and churchyard. There is a little contemplation green space adjacent to the churchyard, where we all sat late one afternoon in the sun, enjoying conversation and agreeing that the barn was a most excellent accommodation choice. Janey the host, is welcoming and responsive. Although we did not meet Janey in person, we talked via text.If you have a toddler, the circular staircase in the centre of the house will be a major fun attraction, as we found out, but it just means a bit more watching out. Without a doubt, we totally recommend this property.

A gorgeous little apartment close to the town centre. Spotlessly clean, tidy and just lovely! Easy to find and get in to. Beds were so comfortable, bathroom lovely and well equipped kitchen. Thank you Neil for the bubbles and treats you left for us, such a nice surprise!! You are a fantastic & responsive host. I would stay again as it was such a great location for exploring the Cotswolds area. We loved it! Thank you Neil !
