Summary: Our stay at Brook Cottage was a winter warmer, the cottage itself is delightfully decorated and very wholesome. We loved utilising the log fire, the smart TV and comfy sofa. The arrival gifts of eggs, milk, bread and orange juice was a lovely touch from the owners. The management team were always on call to answer any queries or questions about the facilities, which was very handy! We had some issues with the bath dripping through the ceiling, and a plumber was organised to visit the following day to sort it out. The location of the cottage is fantastic, you are within a 25min drive from most of the idyllic Cotswold villages and points of interest. The bakery and butchers in Lower Brailes is a must visit! The pastries are to die for, and the sausages at the butchers are heavenly. We even popped in before our departure to gather some goodies to take home! The only minor difficulties we had were with the oven, a few of the knobs are loose, so it’s difficult to tell which part of the oven is on and at what temperature, this meant we had to cook most things on the hob. The only recommendations I would advise would be the possibility of an outdoor tap or a bowl to wash muddy paws after country walks, and blind in the bathroom for some privacy as we found that unless steamed up you could see straight through the windows. We had a wonderful week stay, and would definitely recommend the cottage to friends and family!

Summary: We stayed for 2 nights at the cottage and loved how cosy and calming the cottage was. We loved that there was milk, orange juice and eggs in the fridge. That was a lovely touch. The cottage was absolutely perfect and we loved our stay. The beds and sofa were comfortable and it was a perfect base for us to explore the cotswolds. Would highly recommend.

Summary: Had the best stay at Brook Cottage; I didn't want to leave! The cottage is perfect and renovated to a very high standard and my son and I settled in right away as it really felt like home with such a cosy and inviting living room, and dining area. The kitchen was absolutely fabulous and was equipped with everything you could possible want. It was such a lovely touch that bread, milk, juice and eggs were left for us to enjoy. The bedrooms were very comfortable and I had the best sleep of my life while staying there, with such a good mattress and wonderful crisp bed linens and pillows. The stairs up are a bit steep but this is expected in a cottage and adds to the wonderful charm. My son is 6ft 2in and the lower ceiling in some places were not a problem for him. Brook Cottage provided a wonderful respite for my son and I while preparing him for his stay in Oxford. I highly recommend this glorious cottage!

Summary: Me and my partner went for a 5 day break, and we're over the moon with the cottage, location, condition and comfort of the Home. The location is perfect, 20 minutes away from most things, but the bakery in the village is amazing! The Owners left us eggs, orange juice, bread and milk, which was a lovely touch, thank you! We'd love to stay at the property again and felt we were away from home when we left. We loved our break, and that's a complete credit to the property and the owners. We would definitely, 100%, stay again!

Summary: Really enjoyed our stay at Brook Cottage. Very clean and cosy, nice treat the have bread, eggs, butter, milk and orange juice on arrival. Beds are extremely comfortable, now wanting a new mattress at home !! Little village is great, must visit the butchers and bakers and the George Inn garden is great with a dog. As mentioned in booking, stairs are very very steep, hand rail position is really good. Only things to point for us is only 2 outside chairs (2 were in carport but were broken) so not great for 4 adults to sit outside and enjoy the garden and sunshine. Only 1 wine glass, so we ended up buying some more glasses! Booklet stated coffee pod starter pack and bin bags were left, but unfortunately not. Otherwise a great stay.

Summary: We had a lovely stay at Brook Cottage. It has a large kitchen with all the amenities you need, a lovely lounge area and great bedrooms with a comfortable bed. The shower had plenty of pressure and was great temperature. We enjoyed having dinners outside in the beautiful cottage garden. It’s close to many picturesque Cotswolds villages.

Summary: We had a lovely 3 night stay at Brook Cottage on our way home from Cornwall. Beautiful little cottage, with a nice little sun trap garden at the side. We even spotted the goldfish in the well/pond at the back door. Good quality bedding (master bedroom bed was quite hard though) and lovely good quality towels. Welcome goodies very much appreciated. Not far to some lovely cotswold villages. Lower Brailles is a small quiet village , we had a drink at the local pub The George Inn , which has a nice beer garden. Would definitely recommend.

Summary: The cottage had everything you needed the welcome was very good. The downstairs toilet seat was broken and some of the mugs and glasses had to be washed before we could use them. We enjoyed our stay.
