We had an amazing time here. The space was absolutely beautiful, well equipped and spotlessly clean. Our host was made sure we had what we needed to enjoy our stay and communication was excellent. The lay out worked very well for two couple travelling together. Shops and restaurants were nearby.

This is a beautiful place. It is very close to restaurants, a grocery store, and the train station.
The property is one of the nicest I have stayed at. Well stocked with everything I could need. Location was great, a short walk from the train station and very close to town but still very quiet.Loved it and hope to come back with friends

Great find!
Our accommodation in Moreton was delightful. A wonderful mix of a historic structure with modern amenities. It was great to be in a wonderful village with the train and bus services near by.

Beautiful, clean property in the Cotswolds
This was an easy 5 star location. I see many marginal, frankly questionable properties rated at 4 or more on VRBO and other listing sites, but this is a solid, no question 5 star property. It is a converted historic Cotswold barn, with charming character coupled with all modern flooring, furniture, fixtures, plumbing, appliances and on. The manager is very helpful. As my wife said, it felt like home the moment we walked in. Great location just minutes from the train station with easy access to London and bus lines. Highly recommended

Exceeded expectations for first time "Cotswolders"
Could not have asked for a better experience being our first time to the Cotswolds. The cottage was clean and had all the amenities one would need. Location was great, place was clean, and the fireplace and games made for nice relaxation time when we weren't out exploring. Instructions were clear and Helen was great to deal with!
