"We had a 7-night stay at Copperbeach and the property was perfect for our needs."
The beds were super comfortable, the kitchen was spacious and fully stocked for cooking any meal and the living area was cosy. The only negative issue, or suggestion, is that there was one night's wood supplied and we were there for 7 nights. When we enquired as to being provided with further wood, the response was that we had to get our further fire supplies. Other than that, the location is superb: Stow-on-the-wold is the perfect base for the Cotswolds and the cottage is lovely.
Thank you for taking the time to provide this feedbck. We're delighted you enjoyed your stay at Copperbeech and loved the location too. We do advise guests in our website description that an initial basket of logs is provided for the woodburning stove between October and April; other log supplies can be purchased locally. We hope this didn't impact your stay and that we can welcome you again. Best wishes Manor Cottages

"A wonderful cottage in the perfect location."
Upon arrival the cottage was squeaky clean and very well equipped - the welcome basket and milk in the fridge was a nice touch, thank you! We stayed for three nights and by the end, none of us wanted to leave. I would definitely recommend Copperbeech Cottage and I hope I get to stay there again. Thank you!

"Exquisite and adorable home!"
Such a great landing pad for exploring the local area but also having cozy evening enjoying the garden or company around the kitchen table. Everything we needed was there and it was an absolute delight. Parking on the street was tough to find but the nearby parking community lot made for easy overnight parking

"Copperbeech photographs well."
It looks amazing on the website. Sadly it is nowhere close in its current state. The owners have allowed it to fall into disrepair and the cleanliness is way below what we would expect for the price.
The following were noted:
Front door is warped, difficult to close from outside.
Fireplace lacks the tools to make cleaning easy.
Fireplace was dirty on arrival.
Had to call for firewood starter and wood basket.
L/R carpet needs steam cleaning.
L/R sofas are worn and faded.
Front door curtains were stained.
Kitchen glassware was covered in a film of grease.
Oven hadn’t been cleaned and first use resulted in smoke pouring out due to grease under foil in broiler pan.
Cobwebs throughout property.
Downstairs sink hot water tap doesn’t fully open.
Garden furniture needs repairing.
Garden sun room stinks.
Back door lock loose.
Earwigs everywhere.
All shower fittings leaked in all baths/showers causing flooding on the floor in the top bathroom.
These are just the things we can remember. Finally, we were informed by Sykes that there would be a horse fair during our stay. We weren’t told the true nature of the fair and assumed it was for the wealthy horse-set and would be fun to witness. We were also told parking could be difficult but there was always the adjacent car park.
The fair is a Travelers market. The local pub, as well as many of the shops and restaurants close for the entire week due to the bad behavior of some of those attending the fair. The local police advised us to leave, but if unable to do so stay locked in the house. All the locals gave us the same advice as did the local council. The car park was locked for the whole week. Any cars left in there would be locked in the entire week.
Upon asking to leave early the owner tried to argue that the fair is a lovely event but all the advice received from the police, council and locals was to get out, which we did. In fairness, we did get refunded for the three nights we missed out on.
I would not recommend this property until it has had a major clean and all the broken items repaired.
Thank you for your feedback; we are sorry that Copperbeech did not meet your expectations.
We receive consistently good reviews from our guests so are disappointed that you experienced maintenance and cleanliness issues. We shall certainly look into and address these.
We only provide logs from October to April, so the fire tools had been put away for the summer period. This is set out on our website, as is information about the Stow Horse Fair.
The Horse Fair is a bi-annual event dating back to 1476 which many people enjoy, despite some inconveniences, such as temporary parking restrictions, so we were very surprised to hear you say the local police and council told you to leave.

"We had a lovely 3 days at Copperbeech."
It was a perfect location with fabulous restaurants only a 2-5 minute walk from the front door.
Parking was not a problem as we were there midweek and we could park right outside everyday.
The kitchen was equipped with everything we could have needed the bedrooms extremely comfortable.
The only problem one couple had was that the duvet was rather too thick for their personal tastes - but they were more than happy (and slept really well) with a combination of the duvet cover and the plentiful supply of throws in the cottage!
Thank you for your lovely feedback, we are so pleased you enjoyed your stay and the local restaurants. We look forward to welcoming you back again soon.

"We were here to celebrate my husband’s birthday with our adult children and grandchild."
The cottage was perfect, so warm, cosy and comfortable. The cottage was so well equipped it was like home from home, particularly the kitchen, it had everything.
The garden was very pretty, it would be perfect for summer months. Tastefully decorated, with the decor making it feel like a home and not a holiday let. I would have no hesitation in recommending Copperbeech, and would certainly stay here again if in the area. The only small downside was the parking, as we were there the weekend and it was very busy. Having said that we did manage to park in the street, but would be hesitant to go out for the day incase we couldn’t re park the cars. However, Stow on the Wold has everything you need with plenty of shops, pubs and cafes. A lovely weekend was had by all.
Thank you for taking the time to provide this feedback which is much appreciated. We're delighted that you and your family enjoyed your celebration at Copperbeech. The Cotswolds is so popular but usually spaces can be found in Stow - hopefully this didn't impact your stay. We look forward to welcoming you again. Best wishes Manor Cottages

"This was a lovely cottage."
They managed to keep the historical nature of the home while having all the modern updates and conveniences. It was comfortable and classic. The location is terrific for exploring Stow on the Wold on foot and a short drive to many other charming Costwolds towns. The parking was easy. We ended up having two cars and were able to park one out front and the other in the convenient and inexpensive car park. A perfect place to enjoy our holiday. We didn't use the backyard due to the weather, but imagine it would be lovely to sit and have tea or a drink in warmer weather.
One thing to note is there are no soaps or shampoos for the bathrooms provided. We had brought our own, but for the price would expect at least some bar soap and small shampoos. Also, due to the steep and winding nature of the stairs and the heaviness of our suitcases, we ended up not carrying them up the stairs and only took up to the bedroom areas what we needed during our stay.
Thank you so much for taking the time to provide this feedback. We're delighted you loved the cottage and also the surrounding area. We would love to welcome you again - maybe when the weather is warmer! Best wishes Manor Cottages

In one week I can only pick up on two small requests: Firstly to make sure there is some kindling wood to light the Log Burner, and maybe a few spare toilet rolls available?

"We had a lovely stay in Copperbeech, the house was delightful."
We did have an issue with flies, and bought several fly strips which solved the problem. It didn’t spoil our stay at all. The neighbour at the back seemed to have a pile of compost against the wall and we did wonder if that was the problem. It was reduced during our stay, but we kept windows and doors closed as much as possible. This is a comment, not a complaint, but thought the owners might need to be aware.
Thank you for your feedback and for making us aware of this. We have asked housekeeping to check this on the next change-over. Best wishes, Character Cottages

Very close to the centre of the town, warm, cosy, clean and comfortable. The kitchen was well equipped with everything that we need, the house was spacious and clean with a cute enclosed garden at the back.
The service we received from the property management company was great. The only improvement I would recommend is putting a small coffee machine in the kitchen, so that guests don't need to go out early in the morning to buy coffee.
I would definitely recommend Copperbeech cottage!
