"The property space, size & location are great, but the facilities are very tired now."
It’s close to all you’d want in the heart of the Cotswolds. The beds, pillows & duvets could really do with an upgrade & the sofa’s are very worn & dirty now. There are many marks all over the walls, the carpets look filthy & little things like the toilets are stained. It would be great, it just needs a refresh as it seems like nothings been updated since it was built in 2016, which is a long time for a rental.
Thank you so much for your feedback. We're happy to hear that you love the location and all that it has to offer. We appreciate your comments and we will take these forward to the owner for consideration. Kind Regards, Manor Cottages Property Owner

The property
Located in a peaceful street, on the edge of the ever-popular Cotswold village of Bourton-on-the-Water is this large detached property The Bybrook, newly built in traditional Cotswold stone.
The contemporary home, sleeping up to nine guests, is the ideal base for a relaxing getaway to the Cotswolds.
A path leading up to the front door which opens into a large hallway, perfect for storing coats and boots, before moving into the large, triple aspect sitting room, complete with inviting and stylish furnishings, flatscreen TV and lovely French doors leading out into the back garden.
Family and friends can congregate in the well laid out and sociable kitchen/diner, which has all the amenities you need to rustle up a delicious home-cooked meal and gather with your group around the dining table, with additional seating for two at the smart centre island, and finished similarly to the sitting room, with French doors leading out into the back garden.
If you’re looking for an hour or so away from the rest of the group, head to the relaxing family room, pop on a DVD and kick back on the sofa which converts to an additional bed for one.
Completing the ground floor, you will find a handy utility room with access out to the back garden and a cloakroom complete with basin and WC.
Four welcoming bedrooms can be found on the first floor; the master is a lovely triple aspect room containing a king-size bed and benefitting from an en-suite shower room, the second bedroom has double aspect windows and has a king-size bed, the third has a double bed and the fourth overlooks the garden and has twin beds – you are spoilt for choice!
The stylish bathroom completes the property and benefits from a welcoming bath for you to relax in before heading to one of the bedrooms for the night.
Once you’ve rested your head, cook you and your group a delicious breakfast before retreating into the enclosed garden to enjoy it alfresco style where you will be surrounded by a Cotswold stone wall and a mostly lawn area, with seating and a barbecue to use in the warmer months.
At the side of the house is a driveway, with parking space for two cars.
You are in a prime location at The Bybrook, with Bourton-on-the-Water regularly voted one of the prettiest villages in England and known as the ‘Venice of the Cotswolds’, home to a wealth of attractions and shops, restaurants and tea rooms, such as Cotswolds Antiques and Tea Room and Coach & Horses pub and you can spend some time by the River Windrush which has lovely bridges.
Surround yourself by wildlife at Birdland Park and Gardens or have some fun at the miniature replica of the Cotswold stone village at The Model Village.
Greystones Farm & Nature Reserve is home to wildflower meadows, a working organic farm, Iron Age ramparts, a replica Iron Age roundhouse and an interactive Discovery Barn; offering time out from the hustle and bustle of the village centre, this reserve is open to public all year round and is not to be missed.
Nearby Lower Slaughter is widely regarded as one of England's most beautiful villages and is home to The Slaughters Country Inn which is a well-regarded, quintessential country inn, offering lovely food and drinks.
Stow-on-the-Wold is the highest of the Cotswold villages, and is a small market town with an array of boutique shops, tea rooms, pubs and restaurants; indulge in a bite to eat and drinks at The Stag at Stow, or revel in the scrumptious tea and cakes at The Old Bakery Tea Room.
Visit Cotswold Wildlife Park and Gardens where you will find over 250 species of animals and be inspired by the beautiful landscaping and seasonal displays throughout the park in nearby Burford, known as Southern “gateway to the Cotswolds”.
For an idyllic escape to the Cotswolds, choose The Bybrook as your base.

Where you’ll be staying
BOURTON-ON-THE-WATER
Stow-on-the-Wold 4 miles; Moreton-in-Marsh 8 miles; Chipping Norton 13 miles; Cheltenham 15.5 miles.
Located in the Cotswold Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty, the historic village of Bourton-on-the-Water dates back to Neolithic times with over 100 buildings being Grade II listed or higher. The picturesque high street nestles alongside the River Windrush over which several low stone bridges span, which is why Bourton-on-the-Water is known as the Venice in the Cotswolds. Tradition states that an annual football match is played in the summer, in the River Windrush with the banks lined with spectators, with the aim to score as many goals as possible and get as wet as possible! The village has an eclectic range of visitor attractions, including The Model Village, Cotswold Motor Museum, Birdland Park and Gardens as well as a Dragonfly Maze, monthly farmers’ market as well as many tea rooms, an artisan bakery, antiques and craft markets, traditional sweet shop, cycle hire and its very own perfumery. Nearby, Stow-on-the-Wold, originally an Iron Age Fort, epitomises traditional England. This ancient market town has played host to many fairs since the 12th century and today holds a biannual Gypsy Horse Fair, craft fairs and monthly farmers' market. The vast market square boasts an ancient cross at one end and the village stocks at the other, surrounded by an elegant array of Cotswold stone townhouses, antiques shops, tea rooms, traditional pubs, award-winning restaurants and its very own cricket museum. Also take a visit to the medieval town of Burford for a great day out where you can enjoy a trip to the Cotswold Wildlife Park and Gardens. The Saxon market town of Moreton-in-Marsh and the quintessential English village of Broadway are both within easy reach and make a great day out. The spa town of Cheltenham is, architecturally, the most complete Regency town in England with an incredible range of shops, cinemas, theatres, restaurants and pubs, it is famous for its horse racing festival in March, culminating in the Gold Cup steeplechase. Oxford, the oldest university city in England and sometimes called The City of Dreaming Spires has an abundance of prestigious attractions, including the 38 colleges of the university (half of which date back before 1600), the oldest university teaching room, the Bodleian Library, Ashmolean and Pitt Rivers Museums, and Botanic Gardens. Stratford-upon-Avon, Bath, Worcester and the waterfront city of Gloucester are also all within easy reach.
