Lovely cottage in kingham
We had a fantastic stay - the cottage is lovely and clean. Loved the cosy lounge with log burner and the kitchen was well stocked. We would definitely stay again.
The two pubs in Kingham are also both great.
Only other feedback would be a proper mirror and a bin would be good in the top bathroom.

Lovely Weekend in Cotswold Village
We had an incredible weekend in Ringers Cottage. Walking distance from 2 incredible pubs and a short drive away from other lovely Cotswold Towns and Villages.

Beautiful character cottage in a gorgeous village
We had a lovely weekend in Ringers cottage.
The cottage is full of character, clean and very well equipped. The village is pretty with a fantastic pub opposite the cottage and a lovely village green to the side. Another great pub at the other end of the street. Lots of nice walks and enclosed fields for the dog to run around in. Everyone was very friendly. Chipping Norton is 10/15 minutes away by car as is the Dylesford Farm shop and Garden Centre. Highly recommend for a Cotswolds stay.

Great location
The location of Ringers cottage was excellent & provided a great base. Dog friendly with a safe garden space & plenty of room for us all to enjoy outside. Very friendly neighbours who were happy to share local knowledge.
Inside the cottage was bigger than expected, comfortable with a well equipped kitchen, but it was very hot on the upper floors. When the windows were open we found the road extremely noisy at all times throughout the night & early hours & all found it difficult to get much sleep.
Overall though more plus’s than negatives.

Perfect cottage
We had a wonderful stay at Ringers Cottage. It’s a beautiful cottage in a beautiful village and a short drive from lots of great places in the Cotswolds. The local pub was lovely.
The cottage facilities were amazing. Difficult to navigate the stairs, as very steep and the top floor beds only suit small children. Ours are 17 and 12 and struggled with the size of the twins.
The owner is very accommodating and helpful and if we were coming back without the kids I’d have no hesitation booking the cottage again, it really was wonderful. Thank you.

Quirky Cottage in a lovely Cotswold Village
We really enjoyed our recent stay at Ringers Cottage in the lovely Cotswold village of Kingham. The location of the property was excellent for visiting many of the attractions in the area and easy to walk to the restaurants and shop in the village. A few observations regarding the property are -
-There should be more crockery ie. cups, plates, bowls and cutlery especially for four adults.
- There is no wardrobe or mirror in the bedroom in the roof space although space is limited due to the sloping roof.
- The property was very clean and tidy, however the garden would look a bit more inviting if there was a few more plants and flowers instead of the empty plot which was a vegetable patch.
Would certainly stay at this property again in the future.

“A nice cottage”
A nice cottage that could be a very nice cottage, the advertised image shown is the back of the property, the front is on quite a busy road and can be quite noisy.
Whoever cleans and maintains the property need to up their game, windows dirty and between the double glazing dirty, torn seating in the kitchen.
Stingy, 1 pint of milk and nothing else, a small bag of a scourer a j cloth and 3 dishwasher tablets.
Numerous light bulbs blown throughout the house,some remote tv controls not working.
Living room and bedrooms are nice however the bathrooms and furnishings would be in Del boys taste, out of keeping with a beautiful cottage.
Black toilet? Mirrored shower?
Despite this we had a nice time Kingham is ideally located for all nearby towns and villages.
Bourton,Broadway,Stow ect.
