Quaint Cotswold Village with the perfect cottage to stay in

This is our second time staying in Old Fox Cottage. The last time was in 2019 with our two daughters. We loved it and wanted to return. The thatched roof cottage is clean and well decorated. Cozy hearth room with a warm electric fireplace, inviting sunroom , instant hot water for the shower and tub, comfortable bed. The town is the quintessential Cotswold town with a great historic pub called the Fleece Inn. Cons: Primary bedroom bed, although comfortable, sags a bit. Shower has a good supply of hot water, but is small, has minimal receptacles to plug in and charge devices.

Fantastic little cottage

We had a wonderful stay at this lovely little cottage. Everything was picture perfect, comfortable and spotless. The village was very peaceful and we particularly loved the pub (The Fleece Inn). We definitely will be back!

Exceeded all expectations!

We had a truly wonderful stay at Old Fox Cottage. The owners have thought of every detail to make the cottage comfortable, cozy & convenient. The beds were very comfortable. The water pressure & plumbing drainage were perfect. The kitchen is well equipped with all possible necessities! Great outdoor space. Parking just in front.We definitely hope to book another holiday at this location, with Adam & Lois.

The loveliest of stays.

As a woman traveling alone my comfort level is always a top priority. I want to feel safe sleeping alone in the property but also feel like the space is a warm and welcoming place to rest and retreat. This property Fox Cottage was All those things. I cooked most of my meals in the perfect little kitchen and enjoyed quiet evenings in the lounge area. The bedroom felt like a cozy nest. I slept peacefully. The logistics like parking, location, getting in and out with key were all easy and excellent. I greatly appreciated having a washer... it really allowed me to lighten what clothes I traveled with. All around excellent stay and exceptional service.

Great country hideaway

We loved our stay at Fox cottage, perfect for our family of 4. Very cosy & quiet in the village with a superb old pub across the road serving excellent food. Brilliant base for exploring the surrounding Cotswold villages.

Cozy and lovely cottage

We fell in love with this cottage the moment we opened the door. It is decorated in a lovely way with all kinds of details that make it look "vintage". It is very cozy, with comfortable armchairs, cushions, rugs, etc. The main bedroom is adorable. It has a good-sized wardrobe, sufficient for holiday clothes. We didn't use the second bedroom, but it is nice for the kids (with several books for them to read). The kitchen has all the appliances you may need, and the conservatory (dining room) is amazing (the only thing I would point out is that when it is sunny, it can be a little challenging to eat there). The garden was a little bit overgrown, but we had some nice evenings there. We loved the cottage and felt completely at home. We highly recommend it. When we come back to the Cotswolds, this is the place we will return to.

Lovely Relaxing Week

Our week long stay at the Old Fox came at the end of a travel intensive UK visit. My sister joined my husband and I, so we were three adults. The cottage had the old thatched roof charm we were hoping for, modernized enough to make for a very comfortable stay. It was a bit of a steep climb up to the bedrooms, but that was expected for the cottage charm. Though the bathroom is on the main level it has a lovely shower and soaking tub and a good sized medicine cabinet to store all of our toiletries in. The very popular Fleece Inn pub is a very short walk out the front door. The disadvantage is that the overflow parking during lunch and dinner hours fills up the block in front of the cottage and we had to park down the street and make a couple of trips unloading the car. They also seem to have nightly events so one hears music and joyful voices until 10:30 or so. This was not a problem for us, but something some might want to be aware of. If you are planning to eat a dinner or two there, reservations need to be made two to three days in advance. We found the little local grocery (just a very short walk away) to be delightful and they had most everything we needed for breakfast, lunch and dinners. We also brought home a few treasures found in the Ark, a small antique shop practically next door. Though small, we relaxed in pretty much every seating area/room available (including outside). The conservatory was our favorite, with lots of light and garden views and bird watching. For those curious about the layout, as I was, the front door enters into a small sitting room, with two comfortable chairs. The TV/living room is off to the left. The entry room includes a closet perfect for coats. The kitchen is straight through the entry hall, with the stairs up to the bedrooms to the left and the bathroom and laundry area just beyond the stairs. The conservatory and garden door are just beyond the kitchen. The master bedroom has an amazing closet space, and two small windows with lovely views. The twin bedroom is quite tiny, two adults may struggle to share it, but probably perfect for children, and it includes a lovely little collection of children’s books. If you have sunny weather, don’t miss the outside area of the Fleece Inn. It’s a great little park in its own right, and includes a tiny little lending library.

Honeymoon at Old Fox Cottage

We stayed at Old Fox Cottage for our honeymoon and all I can say is that it was perfect in every way! The cottage itself is beautiful and sits in an idyllic location where we could enjoy many areas of the Cotswolds at our leisure. It’s beautifully presented with many personal touches that makes you feel relaxed and almost home from home. Many thanks for the wonderful memories. Rob & Tracey

Outstanding Stay at Old Fox Cottage

Simple booking process from beginning to end with excellent communication and instructions. The property was spectacular and perfectly met our needs. Everything was immaculately clean with all the necessary kitchen items and some thoughtful treats and basics as well. The garden and conservatory were idyllic as was the village. We were positively spoiled by the food and service at The Fleece Inn just footsteps from the front door of the cottage. This property is a perfect blend of modern conveniences with old world charm and was a great jumping off point for exploring the Cotswolds. We had fabulous day trips around the area and were always happy to come home to such a welcoming cottage in the evening. Would absolutely book this property again without hesitation.

A lovely cosy cottage with everything we needed

We had a fantastic stay at Old Fox Cottage. The bed and bedding were super comfy. Parking was easy and pub was amazing. The shower was brilliant, the heating was quick/responsive. Nice touch that cake/milk/butter/bread were left for us on arrival too!

TLC

As you can see by your records we have stayed at Old Fox many many times over the last few years. Always lovely, well equipped. A little however... as we know the cottage well......it really is at the point now where it needs a really good deep clean . The skirting boards are quite dirty, the bathroom in particular and behind the toilet. The upholstery on the chairs in the sitting room is very stained and needs professional cleaning,as do the carpets,spillage stains on the rugs in the ,living room and conservatory. Needs a good hover round all the edges of all the rooms. The bed is very very comfortable...but it has had the same valance sheet in all the times we have stayed....does question if it has ever been washed?.. The sun came out during our stay, the windows obviously haven't been cleaned for some time, worst ones are at the front of the cottage. Lovely to have a dish washer in the kitchen...but during our weeks stay which is usual..why only 5 dish wash tablets provided...very strange...good job we eat out every day..so we do very little washing up. Would I stay again..of course...

Our second visit to Old Fox Cottage

We love the cottage, it’s like a home from home and very comfortable. This was our second visit in six months so that probably says it all! Thanks so much for a lovely stay in a gorgeous cottage with friendly villagers and a great pub within 50 steps! We will be back again!

Brilliant stay at a great location!

We booked Fox Cottage last minute (on the day of arrival) and felt very fortunate to have our booking accepted. This didn't take away from how clean and tidy the place was with a few essentials (including cake) here for us on arrival. We thoroughly enjoyed exploring the Cotswolds and where better to stay than a quintessential cottage such as this. Very thoughtful touches with tasteful decoration it made the ideal spot for a proposal ... She said YES! Would love to come back again and relive the special memories that we made here.
