Great Stay for a family Birthday

We had a lovely stay at Norman Chapel, it is a beautiful cottage in a very cute village. There are shops and pubs a short drive away and it is quite central for visiting other popular areas in the Cotswolds. We loved the fires and it was very cosy with everything you could need! Thank you for having us!

Our weekend stay

A super sized house, ideal for a get together! Lovely location with lots to do. The kitchen was super, well resourced and very roomy. All the rooms were a good size and we loved the fire. However the front room does need more comfy furniture, too many of the chairs were uncomfortable (feathers!) However we all had a nice weekend. I would recommend as it was good value for money and a great base.

Cosy cottage stay

We stayed at the Norman Chapel for a week and fell in love with the cottage. It’s a very wholesome place to stay and set within a quiet hamlet of other beautiful homes. It was a perfect location for us to visit lots of what the Cotswolds has to offer. Lots of walks, pubs and gardens within a short distance. There was some maintenance works during our stay in the garden and have recommended to the property manager to let guests know in advance in the future when this occurs.

Lovely cottage

This lovely Cottage was perfect for our family stay, kitchen was large and well equipped. Great garden for dining and games. It’s in a small quiet village without pub/ shop but only a short drive away or a good dog walk! There were a lot of bees entering the outhouse next to patio, didn’t bother us at all but might worry young children.

It was a lovely cottage! We really enjoyed this great location, too!

We have only two small wishes: A better coffee-machine - perhaps a filter one? Parking: Perhaps more gravel outside on the street?

Great break

The only reason I gave cleanliness a 4 when we arrived the recycling was everywhere in the garden it did get removed by somebody while we was out one day otherwise a great little place to stay, parking can be a problem sometimes. Especially if you have two large cars. But with that in mind it only happened once. It wouldn’t put me off staying again.

Lovely stay at Norman Chapel

We loved our stay at Norman Chapel. The cottage is quirky, comfortable and surprisingly spacious. The only reason why we did not spend more time in the fantastic garden with its large patio was the weather… We enjoyed the peaceful and quiet setting of the cottage which is in easy reach of many attractions nearby. We would definitely recommend a stay at Norman Chapel!

Lovely stay in a beautiful location

Lovely garden area, ideal for dogs & children to play in. Kitchen & utility very well stocked with every item and gadget you could possibly need. Milk, orange juice, biscuits and bread there on arrival (thank you - nice touch). Beds were super comfortable. Communication ahead of check in was very comprehensive. A lovely relaxing stay and ideal base to explore the Cotswolds from.

Fantastic home with lots of character and quaint charm

Excellent property considering its age. A cosy and super warm feel throughout. A great location so quiet and yet easy access to other villages. A pheasant regularly in the garden and a cuckoo could be heard! The kitchen was a great size with all amenities and a useful boot and coat section which was handy for our dog. We had a lovely stay Thankyou.

lovely weekend property could do with a bit of TLC

Great weekend with family , cottage in good location ,plenty of room just some TLC required . Bedroom door wouldn't close due to screws missing on hinge , cupboard door not fixed on just slotted in ,unused aerial cable just spread on floor ,downstairs bathroom ceiling got damp mould , Old property but damp wall areas need attention there is just lots of small details need sorting , Furniture in there saying fragile do not use ? Garden great even though winter and secure for dog .

Excellent rural paradise!

The location of the cottage is amongst a lovely rural cluster of houses, all very beautiful. The cottage has a lovely garden which can be enjoyed by all, especially young children. We had a problem with the freezer on the day we arrived but after a quick phone call somebody was around in 30 minutes to fix it. The cottage is close to Moreton-in-marsh but also worth a visit is Bourton on the water. Would definitely recommend the cottage which is great value for money and very comfortable.

Sanson A.

good location but poor in cleanliness

The house was big and location very quiet. Wonderful garden. The real problem was the lack of clearnliness. The furniture and all rooms were lacking a deep clean. Moreover, I removed 35 spiders during my stay. Some of them quite big, some of them in beds or sofas. I understand it's an old country house but the cleaning process should take into consideration removing all the spiders every week.
Response from VrboOwner on 12 August 2024
Thank you Alberto for your review of Norman Chapel. We are pleased to read that the property is in a good location with a wonderful garden. We apologise that you found 35 spiders during your stay, this does not reflect lack of cleanliness, but spiders can be prevalent in older buildings. Norman Chapel is a 12th Century Grade 11 listed period property full of character features including exposed chancel and nave stonework, exposed beams and two fireplaces, both with cosy wood burners. Spiders will appear in the gaps and cracks in stone and brick walls, floorboards, and old beams. Spiders and their webs can be removed on a changeover, however they will reappear through another crack or beam as soon as they have been removed. We hope you will return to the Cotswolds soon.

Quintessential Cotswold cottage in quiet village

Beautiful location, convenient for many other Cotswold centres. Very characterful cottage, with cosy sitting room and log burner, and comfortable beds. Property manager helpfully brought us some coffee pods for the new machine, basic food supplies and a pretty Christmas tree. Kitchen very well equipped. Things that could be improved: firelighters and matches for fire, instructions for TV (also very glitchy), one bedroom door hinge was broken so the door had to stay open, and no bulb in a bedside light. All minor things, outweighed by the positives .

Lovely house

Lovely stay in Norman Chapel. Beautiful house. Very clean. Nice welcome pack that we didn’t realise we would get. Really could do with wardrobes, in 2 of the bedrooms, not everything wants to be folded. Some of the blinds are tired. One in main bedroom there was a problem with, goes all the way up or all the way down, no in between. Beds very comfortable. Had a problem with heating but that was resolved quickly. Would recommend.

Fabulous family friendly large cottage with great patio and garden

We loved staying in this very old cottage. It was very comfortable and well equipped and in a great location to visit many places in North Cotswold. We had an 18 month old with us and the garden was perfect for him and the dog! There was an issue with the hot water which was resolved exceptionally quickly following our call. There were several interesting pieces of furniture but I will say having two chairs which were too fragile to sit on, seemed a bit strange, however nice they looked. The dining area was lovely - a nice big table and there is also a nice big table in the garden. A bbq was available which was great. We loved staying in this comfortable, friendly and interesting home and would certainly book again. No pub within walking distance but some nice ones just short car drives away.
