The Stow Horse Fair is held twice a year, typically on the Thursday closest to 12th May and the Thursday closest to 24th October, however, we would recommend checking the exact date ahead of placing your booking. This is a traditional fair for gypsies and travelling people to meet up and trade which dates back to 1476 when its Charter was granted. Stow is very busy for a day or two before and after each fair, and a number of shops, pubs and restaurants are closed. Whilst many visitors enjoy the colour and vibrancy associated with the fairs, other visitors prefer to avoid Stow on these dates
The cottage is heated and features a kitchen, 2 bathrooms, and a patio, and there's space to spread out with 2 bedrooms. Other standard amenities include a washing machine, a fenced private yard, and a coffee maker.

Lovely Cottage in Stow

Lovely cottage in perfect location, well stocked with all the things you need for your stay. A few minor things, ie; tv remote not working & socket being placed the wrong way. Would definitely stay there again.

10/10 Excellent

We absolutely loved our stay at Masters House and will definitely return in the future.

We all thoroughly enjoyed our stay at Masters House. The cottage was clean, welcoming and very conveniently located. It is in the perfect location to explore the Cotswolds and also close by to an excellent choice of restaurants. There is only one thing to raise and that is the pigeons that have taken residence next door. They weren’t an issue for us but I could envisage in the summer months it could prove problematic if wanting to sit in the courtyard. We will definitely visit again.

Lovely Stay

We had a lovely stay at Master's House. The house is beautifully and tastefully decorated, very clean, had evetything we needed and suited our needs perfectly. It is in a great location right in the centre of Stow on the Wold. We would definitely recommend the house. The free three day car park beside Tescos was very useful and little restaurant two minutes walk the from house was a lovely place for Sunday brunch.

Beautiful Property

Masters House is a truly beautiful property: a very stylishly updated historic house. But it’s also super comfortable, well outfitted — we stayed in and cooked many nights — and perfectly located in town. It was a perfect home base for 4 friends doing walks through the Cotswolds. Highly recommend!

Family stay

The appartment is beautiful! You can't beat the location. Next to nice restaurant. We especially enjoyed the Sheep on sheep's. Super cozy and clean. The kitchen is well equipped. We never had problem parking the car super close with the map they gave us! it was pretty hot on the second floor the first night but we ask for a fan and we got it the same day!

This is our 2nd time using StayCotswold. This house was lovely, clean and cosy. Location was perfect to pop in to Stow market square quickly. Road can be a bit loud outside one of the bedrooms but easy to adapt to

Lovely little cottage perfect for 2 couples and a good location, although it can be a little noisy as you are on a main road, it would also benefit from having sturdier bedroom furniture and some full length mirrors. The kitchen is well equipped with lots of lovely touches left for us to settle us in!! (It would be a lot easier with a non stick frying pan!) Parking round the back was good and easy accessible, you can even park electric car overnight at Tescos (5 min walk away) to charge! The Sheep was good to eat in and so was The Kings arms, overall a very pleasant stay
