About this property

Cotswold Cottage - The Cottage - in the centre of Burford

The lovely town of Burford occupies a position on the meandering River Windrush. Burford is built on a fairly steep hill, and the view from the top of the hill looking down the High Street to the river is one of the classic panoramas of the Cotswolds. A lovely 4-arched medieval bridge, widened in the 18th century, crosses the Windrush, and though Burford itself does not occupy the northern bank, a walk across the bridge is rewarded by wonderful views across watermeadows to the spire of St. John the Baptist parish church.
152 The Hill has been completed renovated and now offers 5 individual holiday homes, The Cottage is one of them, all five properties can be all be rented if you would like, family Christmas, special occasions, the whole property will sleep up to 23, but you will all have your individual space, please see 8379757, 8379752, 6977567, 8379755, and please contact us for details.
The Cottage is a two bedroom cottage, with one bathroom with shower, it can sleep up to 4 people, the bedrooms are individual, one double bed and one with a king size bed, downstairs is open plan living, kitchen, dining area and a sitting room with TV.

A communal garden can be found at the back of the property, it is lawned and is available to all guests that are staying at 152 The Hill. When you step outside the property, you are metres away from a newsagent, a butcher, a deli, a chemist, restaurants, pubs, a little further down is the Co-op shop. It is a brilliant place to stay as a base to explore the Cotswolds, with many places to visit.

Ideal spot to explore beautiful Burford and Cotswolds

The Cottage was ideal for our family when we visited for the weekend. Cosy, nicely decorated and a lovely touch being left some fresh bread and cakes on arrival. It's a great location within the scenic village of Burford and an ideal base to explore the Cotswolds. Definitely recommend.

Perfect Cottage

The cottage was perfect for our needs and in a fantastic location, just a stones throw from the high street but set back so very quiet. The extra touches were lovely and well thought out (including an extra hand towel in the bathroom), the welcome pack was exactly what you would need and also included gorgeous homemade items. We would definitely stay again.

Lovely cottage in the heart of Burford

Really lovely 2 bedroom cottage in Burford high street but behind other cottages so away from road and therefore peaceful. Very helpful owner ( we added extra night at last minute) and the most delicious cupcakes on arrival. Wouldn't hesitate to recommend - perfect

Glorious getaway in beautiful Burford

Sally's cottage was a veritable dream - light, spacious, comfortable, and very well decorated! The little extra touches to make us feel at home were very much appreciated - we instantly felt welcome and settled. The parking was exceptionally easy (right outside the door) and the location second to none - in the heart of the high street. We have had a wonderful stay, and could not recommend this property and Sally enough! Thank you again!

Perfect place to see Cotswolds

This is a perfect place to see the Cotswolds from. It is located in town but it isn’t loud. Some Cotswold stays are isolated. This isn’t. The place is small but well equipped for two couples or a family of 4. Everything we needed was there!

Excellent cottage

Very nice cottage full of character, bang in the middle. of Burford. Well furnished and stocked with very comfortable beds.. One small complaint, the Wi-Fi wasn’t working and we couldn’t contact anyone to get it fixed. I think we should have been made aware of this.

Cosy Cottage

Cottage is in a great location for visiting Burford. Walking distance to shops, pubs and cafes. Also for driving to surrounding villages. Welcome gifts of bread, milk, butter, jam, cakes and fizz 🍾 were a special touch! The communal garden is lovely and the cottage itself is very quiet. We were able to find a parking spot each afternoon in the 24 hour free zone which was great but it was midweek. Would recommend!

Great position in Burford cottage needs a few things doing to it. Shower leaks through ceiling, fridge needs defrosting couldn’t open freezer door could do with more crockery and cutlery saves using dishwasher until its full no sheet on other double bed, good points thank you for the welcome basket.

Great Location and Great Cottage!

The entrance is private and easily accessible since the cottage is located just a few steps inside the double doors. Upon arrival we were pleased to see fresh bread and a bottle of champagne! So nice. Loved the coziness of the cottage. The two bedrooms are upstairs and were comfy as well with great mattresses. Another nice touch was the heated floors in the bathroom area. Visiting from America, my adult daughters and I thoroughly enjoyed this cottage and only wish we had more time there. Oh, the views of the garden out my upstairs bedroom was beautiful! Hope to return some day!!! Thank you for such a lovely visit.
