The property was lovely, and we would recommend for location and features, but I would suggest three things: 1) A sign for the second bathroom. We were on a panic because we couldn’t find it next to the laundry. 2) Lots of spider webs on the outdoor furniture. 3) Paper towels or napkins would be a welcome addition, especially for short stays. Other than those minor suggestions, it was a great stay. We would recommend! Thanks for the fans! With the high temps during our stay, the fans were much appreciated

Cosy accommodation in central location
This cosy barn conversion is in a convenient central location within a short walk of shops and restaurants in Moreton in Marsh - a great base for exploring the cotswolds. Our short break included a visit to nearby Batsford arboretum, providing a peaceful setting and welcome shade on a hot day.

Amazing place and host!!
My family of 4 (me, my husband, 18 and 14 year old kiddos) had an amazing stay here. It was SO clean and Nic was amazing anytime we needed anything. The hot water was not working the first morning and there was someone there within 5 minutes of talking to Nic and had hot water in less than 10 minutes. The location was perfect. After 5/6 days in London, it was the perfect countryside get away. We really enjoyed being able to cook our own meal one evening and play card games each night. I cannot recommend this place enough!! I hope the next couple/family staying here enjoyed it as much as we did :)

Unbelievably convenient
We wanted to visit the Cotswolds, but drive on the left? Train? Tour? Bus? This cottage was perfect. We took the train from London, and wheeled our bags the 1 1/2 blocks to the cottage easily, despite being in our 70s and one using a cane. We met our wonderful GoCotswold tour the next day at the station, and could have taken another train or bus from there, also. We had fine meals and shops within walking distance. The people were friendly and the cottage was just fine. It could not have been a better choice for us!

Just wonderful
We had a lovely stay in Moreton-in-Marsh. This location was in the heart of town, and close to the train station, but my husband and I both commented on how quiet the location was. The space was perfect to come home to after a day of hiking and to relax by the fire. We both slept so well and overall loved our stay. We will be back!

Perfect location for the village
Pretty cottage cleaning of the kitchen ie. oven, fridge, crockery in cupboard needs looking at. Fine for most people I am sure but do not recommend for older, larger or disabled as the lounge seating is small and uncomfortable to sit for any length of time. There was a slight sewage smell from the off in the shower room/laundry, and the overflow in the kitchen sink was blocked and smelled bad. Parking was for one car only but this was not made obvious until final notification before the break.

Hi Angela, I wanted to express my gratitude for taking the time to review the property and sharing your feedback. I'm genuinely sorry to hear that certain aspects of your stay didn't meet your expectations, and I regret that I wasn't given the chance to address these concerns during your time here. I would have been more than happy to discuss and resolve any issues to ensure your comfort and satisfaction. Regarding the sofas, personal preferences can vary, and I understand that not everyone may find the seating as comfortable as others do. In relation to the blocked drainage and sewer smell, I personally inspected the property both before and after your stay, and I couldn't find any evidence of these issues. If I had been informed about them during your stay, I would have promptly investigated and taken the necessary actions to resolve them for you. Lastly, regarding parking, I want to acknowledge that I clearly state in the property description that there is only one parking space available. Furthermore, I provide information on where guests can park a second car in my welcome email, which is sent to guests two weeks prior to their arrival. Once again, I sincerely appreciate your valuable feedback and thank you for taking the time to share it with me. Warm regards, Nic

A Comfortable Cottage in a Charming Town
This pretty, modernized cottage has everything one needs for self catering and comfort. It’s location couldn’t be better, a two- minute walk from the train station and from the town’s high street, yet set back in a courtyard that is quiet with no train or traffic noise. Communication with the owner was easy and pleasant. The charming market town of Moreton in Marsh is a perfect introduction to the Cotswolds with antiques shops, art galleries, fine dining in beautiful old inns, traditional pubs, an authentic (and delicious) chippy, and the opportunity for country walks. No car is needed—everything is in walking distance.—although the cottage does provide an off-street parking space.

Home Away From Home
This was our second stay at Dove Cottage. We visited in 2019 and it perfectly suited our needs as a home base in the Cotswolds. The cottage is comfortable, cozy and clean. It is also easily accessed from both the train station and bus stop. Shops are close by and the kitchen is nicely fitted if you want to stay in and cook. It’s so nice to have laundry on-site when traveling and that was greatly appreciated. Nic is a responsive host and quickly replies to any questions.

Excellent place to stay in Moreton in the Marsh. 2 minutes walk from the High Street with many restaurants and pubs. Facilities were good, plenty of wood for the woodburner. Only parking for one car but the car park next door was only £2 a day so no great problem. I would recommend this for a short stay in the Cotswolds.

Nice stay in the Cotswolds
Location was perfect, just two mins walk from Moreton-in-Marsh with plenty of cafes, pubs and shops. There's a public car park next to the barn which is handy if you have more than one car and only £2/day. The barn was lovely, slightly cramped with four adults, but it was lovely weather so we enjoyed sitting outside in the courtyard or enjoying one of the many pub gardens nearby. The only negatives from the trip were that the pillows in both bedrooms were a bit flat and unsupportive and the shower in the ensuite was very small so ended up bashing elbows on the sides. Other than that, was a nice stay.

Perfect Home Base for the Cotswolds
Dove Cottage is certainly one of the nicest holiday rentals we’ve stayed at. We arrived an hour early on the train from London and were able to check in right away as the cleaners were just finishing up. The cottage is spotless, spacious, well appointed and very conveniently located for train and bus transit. The cottage is just a block from the shops, restaurants, coffee shops in lovely Moreton-In-Marsh. We were able to take public transit to many places we visited. Nic was a responsive and helpful host. The photos really don’t do the cottage justice! We would highly recommend Dove Cottage to other travelers.
