  • "This is a lovely attic apartment, perfectly located on the main street of Bourton on the water, just a short stroll from shops, pubs and restaurants, but so peaceful and relaxing."

    The apartment was clean and very well equipped. It is small, but all we needed for our week's stay. We walked many of the trails easily accessible from the property, and felt totally refreshed after a week in such beautiful countryside and scenery! We will definitely stay here again!

    We are glad you had such an enjoyable time and left feeling refreshed! Kind Regards, Manor Cottages Property Owner

    It was just as lovely as our first visit. Spotlessly clean and comfortable beds and right in the heart of all amenities of Bourton but peacefully quiet. Everything you need for a great holiday is provided for at the appartment we even had great weather again.

    Thank you for your feedback with regards to your stay at Beech Apartment. We are so pleased to hear you had a lovely stay with us and it's wonderful to hear it's your second stay with us. We would love to welcome you again for another stay in the Cotswolds. Kind regards Manor Cottages. Property Owner

  • "We found the property to be cramped, ihad also many times ahead asked skykes to inform owner I would like main bed made into singles as per booking, this was not done, and as for size of room wasn't possible without making more squashed and uncomfortable."

    . we sadly felt lack of privacy, bathroom had to have blind closed when showering making it too dark, and bedroom had to close blind for privacy, same with lounge as the 2units doors are next to eachother and so get looked into,,, I wS sitting in nightie after shower on 2 occasions and owner kept coming up to balcony to water plants or go into next door, making us uncomfortable, the lounge is tiny and found sesting at table difficult as lounge chairs in way...very claustrophobic and dark property...kept banging our heads on bedroom slanted roof pillow end so can't sit up to read! The property is dated and full of tiny ornaments etc and in need of a very deep clean especially flooring and woodwork,, the patio didn't offer a nice view or relaxing, overlooked disused area of garden full bricks etc and not a nice place to sit... the owner was very pleasant and informative but overall we didn't enjoy our stay, even left a day early, as notices said to strip beds and fill dishwasher put on etc out of honey by 10 so left day early rather than rush the morning leaving,,

  • "We had a wonderful holiday."

    The apartment is just a short walk from the village centre with lots of pubs, restaurants, cafes and independent shops. An ideal location. Beeches is a small apartment but well thought out and was ideal for the two of us. Spotlessly clean and extremely well equipped with everything you could possibly need. The fold down stools were such a good idea. The bed is huge and so comfortable, probably the most comfortable holiday bed we have slept in. The shared out door space was also very pleasant and the ground around the apartment very well kept and very pretty. The welcome pack was much appreciated, thank you. Janice was very welcoming and on hand if needed. Thank you so much for the birthday card, what a lovely surprise. We would recommend Beeches for its location and comfort.

    We're delighted you had such a wonderful time in Bourton-on-the-Water. Beech Apartment is a wonderful choice in a great location. We look forward to welcoming you back. Best wishes, Manor Cottages Property Owner

The perfect retreat for a family of three, Beech Apartment rests moments away from the village's famed river, River Windrush, and enjoys ample access to the Cotswolds’ attractions.

When you arrive, park up in the handy designated parking place before climbing the external stairs to the lovely abode.

You will immediately find yourself in a pleasant living/dining room upon entering the apartment, with an electric fire warming the space and a TV offering entertainment after a fun-filled outing.

When you're feeling peckish, progress to the kitchen, a compact space offering everything you need to make culinary delights for all to enjoy, including a handy, slimline dishwasher that is ideal for a swift, post-dinner clean up!

The apartment additionally shares an external utility, a space offering two washing machines, tumble dryer and a freezer.

As day turns to night, choose between two bedrooms to sleep in, with one being a zip/linked super-king-size with a TV and the other being a single; the bedrooms share access to a bathroom, where you can savour a moment of relaxation in the bath's bubbles.

Make the most of the sun in the warmer months and wander out to the shared front decking, where you can relish a refreshing drink on the bench.

When you don't feel up to cooking, you can cross the road and head over to find The Mousetrap Inn, a pub offering tasty meals with a charming atmosphere; continue into the heart of the village, where the fascinating Model Village, Cotswold Motoring Museum & Toy Collection, along with the Birdland Park & Gardens can be found.

Towards the edge of the Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty you will find Moreton-in-Marsh, a market town offering the Wellington Aviation attraction, whilst also being close to Bourton House Garden and the Batsford Arboretum & Garden Centre.

About the location

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.
