The central heating was set to minimal - the electric fire did not work - owner checked heating settings and said were ok . We decided to leave a day early and expressing our unhappiness with the warmth of the property and were then told the fan could be used as supplementary heater !!!!!

The central heating in the cottage is set to 21 degrees in the mornings and late afternoon and evening so hardly minimum! John the guest was there when I checked it and saw that the system is set at that and the fan heater is clearly there in the corner of the room. The cottage is highly insulted so even when the system drops to a minimum of 18 degrees in late morning and early afternoon it still stays very warm.
Ideal place to stay for a break, comfortable cottage, well equipped. Good location, quiet and peaceful, yet only a few minutes walk from the village. Lovely country walks straight from the door.
The property was clean, well-supplied, and the location was excellent! We particularly enjoyed walking through the Greystones and learning about the long history of the area.
Lovely place to stay. Great local walks and so much to do in the area. This is a perfect base to explore the Cotswolds. Clean, comfortable, and we had a wonderful week here, with a newborn and our dog.
Fabulous property with everything you’d possibly need for a comfortable stay. The location of the property was also great as it felt quite secluded but was actually only a 10 minute walk into Bourton centre (a decent torch is recommended though if you’re walking back at night as the lane is not lit). The property owner was lovely to deal with and left us a welcome pack which was very thoughtful.
From booking to arrival and departure this property surpasses any that we have previously stayed at. Quiet spot with welcoming hosts and the best ever shower. Would definitely stay here again.
The cottage was a lovely home base for exploring the Cotswolds. The kitchen had everything we could need to prepare a meal and the setting was lovely. It is a quick 10-minute walk to downtown Bourton-on-the-Water (bring a torch if you are out after dark, the paths can be quite dark) and we enjoyed getting fresh milk from Greystones across the field. The Coop for groceries at the end of the road was very conveniently located as well. Tishy was lovely, providing us with wine and local Brie and a small bouquet of flowers from her garden. It was tranquil and quiet, the perfect holiday. We look forward to returning!
Great space and location. Hosts had great information for the area. We were just 2 but would be great for two couples. So quiet, right on walking paths to Bourton on the water (less than 10 minutes), and into the country.
Would stay there again.
We had a lovely time staying in this nice modern holiday let situated in the beautiful serene countryside of Bourton on the water. Highly recommend it for families with kids. The games room is great and the farm, village and shops are all within walking distance.
Excellent property with very friendly and helpful owners.
Rural and peaceful although very close to shops and amenities.
Brilliant walks would definitely recommend.
We enjoyed our long weekend stay at Bury Fields. Great power shower, comfy beds, well equipped kitchen and good location, near the town but in the countryside. Would recommend bringing some coat hangers with you as mentioned in a few previous reviews but this is a very minor point. Overall a lovely stay, thank you.
Well equipped, comfortable and homely, with everything you might need for a break away. In beautiful countryside with excellent walks straight from the door, whilst only 5 minutes or so walk to the village. We definitely hope to return some time.
It was a delightful converted barn. The accommodation was very comfortable and what we expected from the website.
Very convenient to walk into Bourton and countryside.

Pat and friend were lovely guests - highly recommend them.
Bury Fields Cottage is situated in a beautiful quiet rural location but just a short walk from the facilities of Bourton-on-the-Water. The property has quality furnishing and comfortable beds. Great base to explore the amazing Cotswold villages!
We had a great time. Interesting archeological walk and dairy farm adjacent to property. Great communication and prompt help from owners. Easy walk to town and restaurants/attractions.
Had a super stay, all the home from home comforts provided and a thoughtful welcome gift of cheese, biscuits, milk and a cupboard full of tea and coffee. Great location for walking into the town to enjoy the shops, cafes and pubs. Lots of information provided in the house about local walks and activities.
A beautiful quiet property on the edge of open countryside that is a gentle stroll to Bourton. The property is well equipped and the walk in shower is something else.
Bury Barn was perfect, all amenities inside you required. Situated on the outskirts of Bourton on the Water, it was quiet countryside just perfect for a relaxing week’s holiday.
We certainly returning the future.
Excellent property. Good access to shops and restaurants. Property owner very helpful and always there to help. We took our 4 year old springer, Henry, who enjoyed every minute. Loads of brilliant walks. Will return. A most enjoyable stay.
