A pleasant stay

We enjoyed staying at the Knoll in Blockley. The cottage is comfortable and stylish, a few initial issues which were sorted out. The village is lovely and convenient for trips to the Cotswolds as well as Stratford Upon Avon.

Property is lovely and in perfect Cotswolds village. Well appointed and stylish cottage. The only issue was the top floor bedroom and bathroom that were very challenging due to steep stairs to get to it, sloped ceiling, low beams and particularly tub shower configuration (which a grab bar on the tile would help a lot). Beds are great and kitchen nicely equipped although there is no freezer.

Our stay at knoll Cottage

The four of us enjoyed our stay in Blockley very much. Blockley is such a lovely village and Knoll Cottage was very nice but the TV reception was awful - we never got to watch anything on BBC! The cottage was well-equipped, comfortable (another 2 seater sofa instead of the 2 rather uncomfortable chairs in the lounge would be a better arrangement) and was decorated nicely in a non-country cottage style. The village shop and restaurant/coffee shop were lovely as was the Great Western pub. We all enjoyed our short stay very much indeed. Other relatively small points are: No ice cube tray for the G&Ts Shower tube leaked in 1st floor bathroom An opening window in the 2nd floor bedroom would have helped to alleviate the summer heat at night Drawers in base of wardrobes would have been useful Arrangements for emptying the refuse bins were not provided

Fantastic stay

Beautyful small house in very good conditions. We stayed with 4 people in, was perfect!!!. Spotless clean with a nice smell when you enter the house. Kitchen is very well equipped, nice pub with good food near by. Perfect place to discover the whole Cotswold area. Parking was no problem, always something free in front of the cottage.

Our stay at Knoll Cottage.

We had a lovely time in the lovely cottage where we have stayed before. Unfortunately I had a very bad fall from the top of the second floor. I slipped and reached out for the handrail which there was on the floor above and there wasn’t one. I ended up falling backwards on the whole flight and my head took a very bad crack at the bottom on the base of the standard lamp which is wood I believe.. Falling flat I also hurt my back and bottom. If only there had been a handrail on the left going down as there was on the floor above I would not be in this situation now. This is just a recommendation as I would not want anyone else to be in my situation. I hope this comment can be noted only by the the owner and the letting company. Kindest Regards Anne.

Lovely Cottagefrom the bedrooms were

We enjoyed our stay at Knoll Cottage. The property was tastefully decorated, comfortable and well equipped. There were great walks from the property and the views from the bedrooms were lovely. The only downsides were a few low beams and quite steep stairs so this might not be the right property for taller people or those with mobility issues.

Cosy cottage in quaint village

We had a lovely time here. Although the internet went down (and two us were working) the neighbours offered their connection which was very nice and helpful. The showers we struggled with as either boiling or cold but overall a great stay.

Wonderful stay in a beautiful cottage and beautiful village

We enjoyed a wonderfully relaxing break in Knoll Cottage. The cottage is decorated to a very high standard, and is the most well equipped holiday let I've ever encountered. The village of Blockley is beautiful and is very well positioned for exploring further afield, we met a few of the locals and they were extremely welcoming. Would definitely stay again and highly recommend.

Wonderful stayed at The Knoll Cottage. You felt as home when you arrived to the cottage. Everything is very clean. You can find details everywhere. The sofá and beds are very confortable. All rooms are lovely decorated. The kitchen is great, love cook there! The back yard is so beautiful. It has been one of the best houses we have ever been. Thankyou!

A lovely stay in Knoll Cottage

Knoll Cottage was a perfect place from which to explore the North Cotswolds. The cottage is beautifully decorated and very comfortable with everything needed for a comfortable self catering break. The garden is lovely - very welcome during the hot week we were there. The cottage is over the road from the Crown Hotel but is still really quite and peaceful in the lovely village of Blockley. Highly recommended!

As you imagine the Cotswolds

Cute Cotswolds cottage in a quiet village with village pubs and cafe. Really nice local people. Comfortable beds and cosey living room. Easy drives to almost anywhere - we visited Blenheim, Daylesford and lots of the surrounding villages. The Fox (part of Daylesford) was fab atmosphere and food but you are spoilt for choice when it comes to pub lunches.

Lovely spot

We really enjoyed our home base for a week in the Cotswolds. Knoll Cottage was beautifully decorated, with a lovely garden, and very well equipped. The views out the back were outstanding! There is a great restaurant/cafe in town, as well as a grocery store with all the basics. And the Father Brown TV show church is in Blockley too! My only suggestion is for better quality/ greater quantity of towels.

Our perfect place

We absolutely loved staying at Knoll Cottage. As soon as we arrived, we were met with a cosy and warm living room that was a welcome escape from the harsh elements outside. We loved the decor and the quirkiness of the cottage and the views of the valley from the main bedroom were exquisite, especially with the autumn colours. It was easy to feel instantly at home, so much so that we would definitely like to return one day as it really is a special place. The location right in the centre of the beautiful village was also perfect.

We are always happy here x however the cottage was absolutely freezing cold 11c heating turned off . No hot water x and a faulty door knob on the front door x only 3 logs for a 5 day stay x one which was to big for the log burner x After 24 hours we got the lovely cottage cosy once more x On saying this we would definitely return for our 6th stay x

Knoll Cottage Blockley

Superb accommodation. Cottage delightfully decorated and furnished with excellent facilities and equipment with nothing lacking. Great location in a lovely village previously unknown to us. Parking on the road wasn't a problem as we found spaces outside the cottage most of the time. Everything very clean. Good communication with StayCotswold and MyClean.
