Delightful and delighted! What a magical place to stay! Such a wonderful fairytale setting in a very precious little house. Surrounded by the sounds of birdsong and babbling brook, water shimmering, leafy trees making patterns of dappled shade, fresh country air blowing gently through open windows, we were in heaven. The cottage is clean, cosy, well equipped and fantastically situated . Whilst it's a little tricky to get luggage along the river path, that is also a huge part of its charm, to be greeted by it's beauty, settled in it's little space as you round the corner. Idyllic. We are in love . Desperately want to return. Excellent communication, information and contact throughout the booking period. Absolutely nothing to fault. Thank you so very much for allowing us to be custodians for just a little while. The memories will last forever.

Stayed at Primrose Cottage for a week at the beginning of June. The cottage is a Listed Building with the character and quirks of many such properties (beware of the beams in the main bedroom!). It is situated in a charming location, with a stream running along the property boundary and is accessed via two pathways, with Brook Lane the best option for unloading luggage etc. The property has no parking space, with on-street parking available on the High Street, which can become a little congested on occasions. Blockley is a quiet, attractive village with friendly residents and provides a good base for exploring the Cotswolds more widely. All in all the property provides the basic amenities expected of this type of accommodation, with the beds proving particularly comfortable. However, as has been referenced in some other reviews of this property, there were some issues that detracted from the experience. The main living area had a tired and worn feel which would benefit from a refresh. The kitchen floor and mat appeared ‘grubby’, but most concerning was the condition of the oven which was not clean and as a consequence we refrained from cooking any meals during our stay. On inspection, all the bin storage and recycling area (located behind the garden shed), was full and appeared not to have been collected for some little time. A telephone call to the management company was met initially with an expectation that we were to deal with this situation, but advised we were not willing to sort out the amount of accumulated rubbish. As a consequence, a person arrived promptly and removed four large plastic sacks of rubbish and left a box of materials for recycling for collection by the local council. It should be noted that no detailed information on the collection of rubbish/recycled materials is included in the information folder provided in the cottage. On departing the cottage, we left only a relatively small amount of rubbish and took all materials capable of being recycled home with us for disposal. Finally, the windows of the cottage were dirty and did not appear to have been cleaned for some considerable time. In conclusion, Primrose Cottage has a lot going for it in terms of its character and location, but aspects of its maintenance could be significantly improved.

Both my friends and I had a wonderfully, relaxing long weekend away @ Primrose Cottage mid January . The cottage is very welcoming and comfortable, warm with the addition of a log burner should you wish to use it. A well stocked kitchen utensil wise and such comfortable beds! Totally enjoyed our stay and really do hope to return another time.

To be honest I only booked a stay at Primrose Cottage because of the stream running through the garden, it looked so sweet and charming and I could not resist! Booking was simple and straightforward. The cottage is quite lovely, however I was taken aback by the lack of cleanliness. I realise in the English climate, and with a fireplace too, it must be difficult to keep carpet clean, but the carpet here looks like it hasn’t been deep cleaned in years. The sofa and armchair were so grubby I wasn’t even comfortable sitting on them. I only used the ‘leather’ armchair because it at least looked clean. The rubbish bin in the top bedroom had not been emptied prior to my stay, not pleasant to have to deal with another guests dirty tissues when I arrived. I had to scrub a coffee mug clean before it was fit for use. I did not need to cook during my stay, which I’m glad of, because all the cupboards and their contents were grubby. I only made use of the toaster and kettle. I did have to use the iron, the handbook said it was stored I the cupboard under the stairs. I opened the cupboard to find a dusty, tangled mess of all sorts. The worst was probably when my phone slipped off the bedside table and I pulled the table out. Yuk. Not cleaned for years by the look of it. Whoever vacuums the place does not move anything out of the way obviously. The Iightswitch on the landing was bizarrely taped off. And for goodness sake, spend a few bucks on a new lampshade! …… but the stream and garden were lovely!!
