Lovely cottage in a great location near to all amenities A welcome pack was provided with washing up liquid, dishwasher tablets a tea towel and other essentials plus some milk and orange juice were in the fridge which was very nice but it would have been helpful if that was stated as we brought all these things with with us Overall we had a lovely stay and would highly recommend Pike Cottage

We had a great weekend everything was a stated and the location was brilliant. Only very minor downside was the low ceilings for the taller member of our group not really an issue.

Everything was perfect, including the solving of a minor problem with a bathroom.
Sabina
What an absolutely marvellous cottage. Very very quaint but homely. If we are ever in the vicinity again, we will be trying to stay here again. Many restaurants, pubs and shops on your doorstep. Such a lovely stay, we didnt want to leave.
Lovely little house in a good location. Visitors should be aware that one of the upstairs bedrooms does have a shower, but no toilet, and that one of the bedrooms the one with two singles is a mezzanine type room above the master bedroom with no door between them. Good for kids not great for privacy.

The beds were not very comfortable. With that said, the location could not have been more perfect. The village of Stow on the Wold is right out of the 1700s and absolutely beautiful. Walking the Monarchs Way was a great way to start each day. The people were amazingly friendly and one resident even invited us in for tea!
Pike Cottage is in a great location however the layout of the bedrooms is not made clear. Luckily we were all family so we coped but in other circumstances the sleeping arrangements would have become difficult. Also, the small single bed was broken. This meant our Daughter had very little sleep. The cleanliness of the cottage was very poor. The beds and towels were clean but the carpets were stained and the bathrooms and kitchen were not as clean as you would expect them to be.
Victoria
Idyllic cottage what a fantastic little place! great location ! Weve loved staying & recommended to others.
We had major issues with the hot water and the heating did not work. We were very disappointed with the accommodation. However, the situation with the waterheating was managed very well by the local staff on call. Many thanks to Lisa, Stuart and the team.
A very enjoyable stay. ...Infact our 3rd visit to Stow but 1st to Pike Cottage which is a lovely old house in a great location to explore Stow by foot and surrounding area. Very comfortable place but the parking is a problem. It's clearly stated that it's on street parking but due to Stows popularity we found it virtually impossible September to park anywhere close to the house at all and most times I'd drop my wife and invariably park up the top end of the Town . Loved the quirky character and charm of Pike Cottage and the fact there's Netflix and Amazon Prime but found the kitchen lacked a few key utensils when we cooked in the house eg spatula to cook in frying pan. We slept in the main bedroom with ensuite and was very comfortable bed plus loved the fact there was a bath in ensuite too. Lovely characterful dining room oozing charm and all in all a lovely house. We were also fortunate enough to be able to enjoy the garden as had lovely warm sunny weather too
The cottage location is excellent, just a few minutes walk to the shops in Stow. The cottage is full of character and a lovely place to stay, we were there for a girly weekend and it was perfect, the kitchen particularly was great as it had plenty of space for us all to sit down. Only minor criticisms 1 the welcome book says not to touch the heating, but we had to turn it off as it was BOILING. Set to 20 degrees all night so we were roasting, it was easy enough to turn it off on the controls but would have been better for it to be set to a more normal temperature! 2 tidying up instructions were unclear, they referenced putting bedding into bags provided but we couldnt find these. Not sure if they were oldoutdated instructions as they referenced Covid a lot too. 3 very little was provided in terms of bin bags, loo roll and basic cleaning products. The biscuits and crisps were a nice touch, but some basics would have been more useful. All very minor things though and I would stay again.
Lovely warm cottage, great location, nice welcome biscuits etc. , everything provided, highly recommended, thank you.
Absolutely loved the cottage, we had a great time, thank you. Only feedback if pushed was the blinds in the top floor bedroom weren't the easiest. The Christmas tree was a lovely touch and really appreciated the milk and biscuits. So central, we couldn't have asked for better.
Lovely cottage, well equipped and walking distance to everything that Stow has to offer
The cottage is beautiful and well located in village, we had a few issues. The ensuite bathroom toilet didnt flush properly, the shower in the main bathroom was very temperamental, there was a leak in the dining room from the skylight. I would really suggest changing the carpet on the stairs from the top bedroom, on Monday morning I slipped on the stairs hit my right knee and crashed into radiator at bottom hitting my head. So our first day was a right off as I was battered and bruised.
