Truly full of character! Lovely cottage very close to Windrush, but tucked away from crowds. We drove in to Bourton so we very much appreciated the parking on premises. We were a bit concerned about the absence of A/C but it was completely unnecessary!
My wife and son had the most delightful 4 night stay in this wonderful cottage in the heart of Boughton with only 2 mins walk to the centre. From begining to end everything was a breeze. Ease of location, parking, entry, cleanliness upstairs downstairs, comfort, good facilities, overall it was perfect. Even on arrival the owners had left a "sweet"surprise for my wife's celebration - a very nice touch for our stay. Thank you.I fully recomend this beautiful property for any length of stay.
Well Cottage is absolutely charming in every way! Great location, well appointed, and very clean with comfy beds and a great bathroom. (note: the bathtub/shower can be pretty high to step into for older or disabled folks but you can hold on to the sink to help you in--see the photos). About 9 steps to get upstairs. Bourton-on-the-Water is just a lovely village! A lot of other people must think so too--lots of tourists but they are well behaved, mostly families. Would love to stay there again. Just a magical little place to stay!
We had a wonderful stay in this beautiful 16th-century cottage. The property is full of character and charm, with many original features that really add to the atmosphere, yet itâs been thoughtfully updated to ensure modern comfort.The cottage was spotlessly clean on arrival, and the beds were extremely comfortable â we slept very well. The shower was excellent, with great water pressure and plenty of hot water. While the bath was a little high, itâs a minor point and didnât detract from the overall comfort.The location is fantastic â peaceful yet convenient â and we really appreciated the off-street parking. One of the highlights was the lovely cream tea waiting for us when we arrived. It was such a thoughtful and welcoming touch from the hosts.Overall, a delightful place to stay, blending historic charm with modern convenience. We would absolutely return!
We spent a relaxing 2 weeks in this gorgeous period cottage. Dawn and Bette were excellent hosts and have attended to every need. Comfortable bedding, quiet and very cosy surroundings. Although only a couple of minutes from the main street it is very private and quiet. We made an excellent choice, we would recommend it to anyone looking for a base in the Cotswolds.
Well Cottage was a wonderful experience start to finish. The host was excellent- wonderful communication- especially appreciated written instructions upon arrival and lovely cream tea!Very charming, cozy cottage. Well appointed and perfect location to explore the area, Having a parking spot was very valuable! Absolutely would stay again and highly recommend!
Donât miss an opportunity to stay in this lovely cottage! It is perfectly located to experience Bourton-on-the-Water. We loved the wooden beams, wood stove fireplace, and all the amenities provided by Dawn and Bette. I will be recommending Well Cottage to friends! Catherine
Well cottage is delightful and has the benefit of off-street parking - very important in Bourton. It is in a perfect location, being very close to the centre of the village but in a quiet road.The property was spotlessly clean, well-equipped and as such had everything I needed for a relaxing break.The owner is very hands on and nothing was too much trouble. I enjoyed the fruit, cheese and biscuits that were provided!I would definitely recommend this property.
This charming cottage, built in the 16th century, is nestled in the heart of the village. Within a stoneâs throw, youâll find a bakery, a pharmacy, and a supermarket. For a more extensive grocery selection, thereâs a larger COOP just a 10-minute walk away. Additionally, there are several walking paths nearby, eliminating the need to drive. The friendly owner is always ready to assist with any questions you may have. Enjoy your stay!
Dawn does not miss a single detail in making this cottage more than special. To mention a few key items that made our stay perfect: the linens (!), very comfortable beds, high end equipped kitchen, comfortable furniture to relax on after long hikes in the beautiful countryside, sweet outdoor sitting area - and Dawn as our host! Home was built in 1600âs and thoughtfully preserved with all the modern touches that made our stay very comfortable. The cottage is less than 2 blocks from town and has its own parking space. Town gets busy but what a quiet oasis to come home to! Dawn, thank you for sharing this rare gem!
This was a great cottage to base yourself in the Cotswoldâs. The two minute walk to the village was a great feature of this cottage as well as the parking spot. I enjoyed the fire and the beautiful surrounds. I would recommend a stay.
Well Cottage was the perfect place to spend our time in the Cotswolds. Bette has thought of everything to make this a home away from home. The cottage located is in a quiet neighborhood with just a short walk to the shops and restaurants in the village. The accommodation are the quintessential English cottage.
Thoughtfully appointed historical period home. Amazing fireplace which was all set for easy use. Home it situated within steps of an abundance of dining and shopping choices. Best of all there is a dedicated parking spot.
Couldn't have been happier with our decision to stay at Well Cottage. It was delightfully decorated, comfortable, and in an ideal location. The host, Dawn, couldn't have been more helpful in addition to being incredibly friendly. We loved every thing about the cottage!
Perfectly positioned and equipped - particularly grateful for the wonderful loaf of bread and marmalade welcoming us on our arrival, graciously provided by our hosts!
The cottage is cute, quaint and cozy! It is even more beautiful in real and photos donât do it justice!
The cottage has everything you need, beds are comfortable and the owner is wonderful too checking in per email seeing if everything is okay!
We definitely recommend the Well cottage!
Well Cottage is owned by my Mum, Bette. Both my Mum and I run Well Cottage as a business and enjoy sharing this property with others. We love the fact that Well Cottage is an unusual and unique property which has not 'not had its heart removed giving guests a truly authentic experience of modern meeting 16th Century. Once in the cottage you will feel its charm and feel its the peace of time in this detached cottage with an original Well in the Garden and having so much history and character attached to it. It was a "gem of a find" when my Mum and Dad originally bought it back in 1994 and we will never want to sell it!
Bourton on the water has so much in itself to offer with its river and beautiful bridges, many boutique style shops, antiques, perfumery and lovely cafe's and restaurants - all within a 2 min walk. Attractions are Birdland, Motor Museum, The Model Village, Hawkstone Brewery and the wonderful Greystones Farm Nature Reserve to walk through. There are many trails around the village to enjoy leading you to other villages nearby such as The Slaughters. The following are some of the headings taken from our reviews over the years: "perfect location within Bourton on the Water", "Lovely quiet cottage", "Beautiful cottage", "Absolutely enchanting", "worth every penny", "loved this cottage, sad to leave", "Well appointed cottage, quiet and peaceful in a picturesque setting"..................and many more.
This is a unique cottage because it is one of the oldest detached cottages in the village which has managed to retain its original features and even has a well in the garden which would have been used by local farm hands when Bourton on the Water was mostly farm land.
