The Stow Horse Fair is held twice a year, typically on the Thursday closest to 12th May and the Thursday closest to 24th October, however, we would recommend checking the exact date ahead of placing your booking. This is a traditional fair for gypsies and travelling people to meet up and trade which dates back to 1476 when its Charter was granted. Stow is very busy for a day or two before and after each fair, and a number of shops, pubs and restaurants are closed. Whilst many visitors enjoy the colour and vibrancy associated with the fairs, other visitors prefer to avoid Stow on these dates
Please note there are only child facilities for 1 infant

Summary: Nepenthe provided the perfect base for exploring the Cotswolds. The cottage had everything we needed and was fantastic to have 3 bedrooms and 3 bathrooms. Communication from Stay Cotswold was first class including all the pre- stay info. Shout iut to Natasha, the property manager. We had one very minor issue which she responded to immediately. Wonderful customer service. Highly recommend

Summary: Property was clean, warm (it was very cold outside!) and well thought out. Everything we needed was there with a cosy atmosphere, whilst being plenty big enough for 6 and a small dog. Location is great for exploring Stow. Recommended.

Summary: I had a wonderful time at Nepenthe cottage celebrating my 80th birthday with my family. The restaurants and shops were within easy walking distance.
Dec 24, 2024 09:55:31 PM
Summary: Nepenthe is a gorgeous cottage situated in the centre of Stow near to a range of shops, art galleries, coffee shops, pubs and restaurants. We stayed for a four nights along with our dog and it was ideal. We invariably found parking just outside. Very clean and comfortable with a lovely log burner which provided a lovely warm and cosy feel to the living room. We would certainly come back and would highly recommend to others.

Summary: Perfect stay in Nepenthe, georgous house, warm and cosy. Lots of atmosphere with a perfect location exactly what we needed. StayCotswold were so helpful in every way and very easy to deal with everything went perfectly smoothly, we couldn't recommend them more highly. On a light note .... following our request for good weather for our stay, they even provided that too. Thank you so much everyone.

Summary: Our family rented Nepenthe for a few days and loved it! It's quaint and charming. Don't expect a modern, spacious apartment; the owners have managed to keep much of the old character, while still providing comfortable amenities. Location is great! The town is small, but large enough to offer restaurants and shops. The front door is just a 5 minute walk to the historic church and town center. There is street parking right at the front door, but finding an open spot can be a challenge. We had to walk a few blocks to park most days, but the walk was a pleasant one. We left behind a set of Airpods, and the staff emailed us to tell us they found them, then mailed them to us in the U.S. Great service!

Summary: A very comfortable stay in the centre of Stow on the Wold in a very well equipped and clean cottage. StayCotswold very helpful with advice on restaurants whilst visiting and came up trumps with a lost item.

Summary: We have stayed at Nepenthe on numerous occasions when the previous owner owed it. So we were very disappointed to see the same small tv still there in the same cabinet. Also even though there are new sofas they were very uncomfortable. We also thought the back garden could do with a freshen up or total refurbishment. These are the only things I could find that we didn’t like. The cottage is in a fabulous location walkable to the village and most other villages are a 20 minute drive. The log burner made the cottage so cosy on rainy days. We really enjoyed our stay if the three things are addressed I would say Nepenthe would be wow.
