"We had a lovely stay at Little Gables."
It’s a beautiful property in a fantastic location. Karl was very helpful and stayed in contact during our stay. We were disappointed to find scaffolding around the side of the property upon arrival, this did spoil the look and feel of the property whilst we stayed there. We also found the bed linen synthetic and hot. But aside from the above we had a great time and we would be very happy to return. Thank you.
Thank you for taking the time to provide this feedback. We're glad you had a lovely stay at Little Gables and hope we can welcome you again. Best wishes Manor Cottages Property Owner

"This was our second time staying at Little Gables and it was once again very enjoyable."
The house is lovely, with everything you need for a break away from home. It is very comfortable. The location is perfect for shops, pubs, coffee shops and the activity park. We have already booked to return in the Spring!
Thank you for your very kind words Clare Property Owner

"A beautiful house, so well equipped."
The garden too is beautiful. The weather was atrocious meaning we were more or less forced to stay in the house which in fact worked to our benefit catching up with family in such a lovely house. The owner kept in touch to make sure all was well - a great comfort.
Thank you Tony - I really appreciate you taking the time and effort to leave a review Property Owner

"Lovely period property in a perfect location in Broadway."
The property was extremely clean, the beds were very comfortable and the garden was beautiful. Our family, two grandparents, parents and an active two year old had a most enjoyable holiday. Many thanks to the owner Karl who kept in regular contact to ensure that we had everything we needed.
Thank you Both - hopefully to see you again at Little Gables. Property Owner

"Little Gables is a lovely well appointed cottage ideal for a family group which we have used on a number of occasions and never been disappointed."
It’s location is only a very short walk for the village centre with good shops and eateries etc. Car parking at the rear is excellent and the children’s park only a couple of minutes walk away ensures the young ones use up plenty of energy! An excellent choice and the owner ensures that any issues,which are very rare,are dealt with very effectively.
Thank you David - your comments are very much appreciated. Property Owner

"Unique cottage in a good location, with private parking."
Easy access to pubs and shops within Broadway and a good base for visiting other villages in the Cotswolds. The cottage itself was very well equipped and felt like Avery unique place to stay. The back garden was beautiful and an oasis of calm - we spent a lot of time there!

"The wow factor was very high when we entered the garden through the gate in the wall."
A real dream. The house itself is beautiful and decorated with so much attention to detail. You can't get enough of it. The beds are very comfortable and then the AGA. An absolute dream for a cook. We really enjoyed our time in Little Gables and will miss it very much. The landlord Karl took great care of us and was always available to us. Thank you Karl for sharing this little paradise with us.
Very kind of you Gudrun, thank you. Property Owner

"Ittle Gables is a beautiful property in a beautiful place."
As a frequent cottage renter I am often a little anxious about what I will find - but this house was a lovely surprise. It was not just as good as I hoped it would be - it was better. I thoroughly fell in love with it and I told the owner Karl this each time I spoke to him. He was totally fabulous and always available for any and all enquiries. My main concern is always cleanliness and it met my standards - which isn’t easy! I wanted to rebook again before I’d even left the property.
Thank you for your feedback with regards to your stay at Little Gables. It's wonderful to hear how much you loved the house, it's full of period charm and we are so pleased you enjoyed the stay with us. We would love to welcome you again in the future. Kind regards Manor Cottages. Property Owner

"Little Gables is your quintessential perfect Cotswold cottage, built out of Cotswold stone with wooden beams and stone floors everywhere."
Given its many original features, such as leaded lights and stone mullion windows with thick stone walls, it is surprisingly warm, particularly with the Aga in the kitchen that is great to come down to in the morning. Karl has done a fantastic job with the tasteful decoration and furnishing, all in keeping with this property and throughout our stay he made himself available should we need to contact him, which we didn’t. If you want to experience living in a true historical Cotswold cottage, with everything you need for that little bit of luxury thrown in, then Little Gables would be hard to beat. We had a fantastic time in Broadway and can’t wait to plan our next return.
Thank you Kevin, very kind of you and very much appreciated. Property Owner

"A stunning warm & cosy cottage."
The garden is beautifully maintained and we loved the Stag. Made extra special by being able to walk out straight on to the high street full of lovely shops cafes & pubs. We was lucky to be there for the Christmas lights switch on and there were some trees outside the cottage lit up. The issue we had with the stairgate was promptly rectified by Karl. He’s a very caring owner. We will definitely return to Little Gables.

"A truly stunning property in a perfect location."
Having all the original character of a listed property and with its quirky features, this cottage is charming. With comfortable furnishings, a well-equipped kitchen and everything else we needed being provided our time here was relaxed and memorable. The spectacular garden is a place we spent many hours during our summer stay and is a truly special place to absorb the ambience and unique atmosphere surrounding the cottage. Thankyou to the owner Karl for taking the time to make sure we had a great stay in his property. Indeed, this was our 3rd stay at Little Gables and we can honestly say, every time has been great. We will certainly be back!
Thank you for your kind words. Little Gables really is a beautiful property and we are so glad to hear that you took full advantage of it. We hope that we can welcome you again one day soon, and thank you once more for providing us with such lovely feedback. Best wishes, Manor Cottages. Property Owner

"A lovely property and very well equipped."
First time using an Aga but it was quite easy. Location was great. The garden is really nice and decent garden furniture which is not always the case. The only recommendation I would make is that the kitchen bin is a bit small and one ends up using more black bags (not great for the environment). Maybe a free standing one somewhere?
Thank you for your feedback with regards to your stay at Little Gables. It's lovely to hear how much you enjoyed your stay and thank you for your comments with regards to the bins, we will forward this to the Owner for review. Kind regards Manor Cottages. Property Owner

"Beautiful cottage & garden."
Beds very comfortable. Great location - handy for all the pubs/restaurants/shops. It’s a 30 minute stroll up to Broadway Tower (with good cafes) which is worth a visit. Would be lovely to visit again.
I am genuinely pleased you are happy Alison, thank you for your kind comments. Property Owner

"Wow what can I say about this beautiful house."
Three generations stayed at Little Gables for a week, everything was perfect, we wanted for nothing. Everything you needed was provided. Ideal place to stay for exploring all the villages around Broadway. The garden is wonderful a fabulous cottage garden always something to look at while sitting on the patio area, perfect for enjoying a glass of wine while taking in the sun. Lots of lovely places to eat in Broadway or stay in and enjoy cooking in a fabulous kitchen. We would highly recommend a stay at little Gables best place in the centre of the village. Karl was very friendly and kept in touch by text if you needed anything. This is the 5th holiday home we have booked through Sykes cottages in different parts of the country and have not been disappointed with any of them, always been as advertised. Excellent service. Can't wait to return to Little Gables

"Little Gables was everything that the online brochure promised."
It is historically characterful, very well appointed, cosy for the whole of a wet, windy, winter week and easily spacious enough for us 6 adults. The kitchen / dining room was the centre of our household with the Aga keeping us toasty warm. It is very easy to cook on as it's automatically kept up to cooking heat all the time. We cooked dinners for the entire Christmas week including Christmas dinner very easily. The kitchen is exceptionally well equipped. Bathrooms are lovely with acres of hot water. It was our perfect home from home. Xmas decorations were much appreciated.
Very kind of you and I am really pleased you enjoyed your stay. Property Owner

"Thankyou for a wonderful 4 night stay at Little Gables."
We are a group of 6 best friends celebrating a birthday and early Christmas day, complete with gifts and full turkey roast dinner cooked on the wonderful Aga. We were in the heart of the village of Broadway, moments away from the famous Christmas market, so we took full advantage of all the friendly local shops and restaurants. We also visited the Sudeley Castle Christmas lights extravaganza. Both definitely did not disappoint Our gratitude also extends to the very approachable owner Karl, who was very helpful in getting the cottage beautifully and tastefully decorated for us before we arrived. The bedrooms are all delightful and comfortable beds. The lounge is very cosy, especially with the wonderful log burner in full swing. The dinning room was a perfect retreat where we spent time eating, drinking and talking, away from the kitchen. A special mention must go to the gardener here! The garden is pristine and beautiful, as is the Cottage and village. We honestly wanted for nothing during our stay and we will cherish memories made in this beautiful cottage for ever. Would we stay again?…in a heartbeat! Thankyou Broadway and Karl. The McWheelers (1-5 Dec 2022)
Very kind Dean, thank you. Property Owner

"Our stay at Little Gables was a really enjoyable one, for a short break it couldn't have been in a better location."
As there were 6 of us we had plenty of room to enjoy this lovely cottage and beautiful garden.Karl the owner was very helpful throughout our time there. We were greeted warmly by Phil who happened to be there mending the shower when we arrived. He and his wife made us feel very welcome. A much appreciated recommendation for Hunters Tea Room, we had gorgeous breakfasts every day.We all agreed that we would definitely go back to stay in the future.
Fabulous you had an enjoyable stay at the cottage. Great to hear you were made to feel so welcome and loved the breakfast at the Tea Rooms. We look forward to welcoming you back in the future. Thank you for your feedback. Best Wishes Character Cottages. Property Owner

"The property was very well equipped."
We would have liked a power shower, and the kitchen cupboards were rather old and worn. Spiders and other insects were often seen which I suppose would be expected due to the age of the house. There was no draining holder for plates and cups. Cooking on the Aga was difficult. Hope that this feedback is taken as constructive and useful.
Thank you for taking the time to provide this helpful feedback and we hope you enjoyed your stay at Little Gables. Spiders are an integral part of the countryside but thank you for bringing some other issues to our attention which have been passed on to the owner. We hope to welcome you again. Best wishes Character Cottages Property Owner

It is the ideal base for a family or group of friends who are seeking a relaxing break in this stunning part of the Cotswolds.
Park up to three cars in the convenient parking spaces in the shared car park to the rear of the property before unloading your bags and being greeted by the pretty rear garden bursting with shrubs and trees.
The rear door opens into the spacious and ornate entrance hall which provides space to store your coats, boots and umbrellas, before guiding you through into the characterful sitting room which has been lovingly decorated with smart wooden flooring, exposed wooden beams and dual aspect stone mullion windows overlooking the high street and back garden; the perfect room for a relaxed evening watching a film on the Smart TV on Netflix, whilst the woodburning stove creates a warming ambience for you and your guests.
Moving through the property, the dining room combines contemporary style with wonderful character and is a welcoming space to enjoy your home-cooked meals that have been rustled up in the bright and spacious open-plan kitchen/diner, which is well-equipped with everything you require to cook a delicious meal, whilst listening to some tunes on the digital radio.
Taking the staircase in the entrance hall, you’ll be led up to a wonderful shower room on your left and the beautiful triple aspect master bedroom to your right, containing a welcoming king-size bed and an addition single camp bed for a child (on request), with ample storage space.
Moving through the hall, you will come to the second bedroom which links the two sides of the house and is an elegant room with a king-size bed where you can relax and get lost in the pages of a compelling novel from the selection of books on offer.
Onwards through the property you will come to the staircase that leads down to the kitchen, which leads you to third bedroom overlooking the bustling village and contains a digital radio where you can listen to some relaxing music from the comfort of your double bed.
A further staircase from this hallway guides you up to the second-floor where you will find the stylish bathroom situated, with a freestanding oval bath.
Once you’re well acquainted with the internal rooms and you’ve unpacked your bags, head into the beautifully laid out with a manicured garden to be surrounded by pristine flower beds and leafy shrubs at its borders.
Directly outside the property there is an attractive patio area which houses an outdoor table seating six, together with a parasol and charcoal barbecue and from here, Cotswold stone steps lead up to the lawn where stone benches provide a second seating area.
Once you’ve rested your head for the evening in one of the beautiful bedrooms, grab some breakfast at Hunters Tea Room before taking a leisurely walk around Broadway to discover an array of individual shops and restaurants, such as Cheltenham House Antiques, Blandford Books and Hamiltons Chocs & Sweets, where you’ll surely not leave empty handed!
Chipping Campden can be easily accessed by taking a scenic walk along the Cotswold Way walking trail and alighting at the War Memorial in Chipping Campden to enjoy a lovely walk around the 17th century market square before having a well-earned heart-warming meal at The Bakers Arms.
Heading slightly further North will bring you to the wonderful market town of Evesham, where you can visit the Almonry Museum and gift shop, and afterwards take a walk over to The Hampton Ferry which is a pedestrian cable ferry linking Evesham and the district of Hampton across the River Avon in the English county of Worcestershire.
