Park Bothy Reviews

We had a lovely stay! Great accommodation and v comfortable

Joanne

Everything about this property has been well thought out and the result is a beautiful relaxing and comfortable holiday home. I only wish I had stayed longer !!. I really cannot recommend this place more highly and the surrounding area is lovely. We will definitely return here.

Gaynor

Brilliant location and privacy, quiet! Lovely cottage with all essentials needed Amazing hot tub Recommendations would be to have larger TVs and possibly an L shaped sectional relaxing sofas for those days just relaxing enjoying the cottage Would recommend this place

Jonathon

Park Bothy was the perfect place to stay. Great location, Big garden which is enclosed perfect for the 4 legged friends. Super comfy bed. We had the best stay. Perfect location for walks and exploring.

Darren

Lovely property, clean and tidy. Enjoyed our stay here. Could be critical on some kitchen items missing but this would be harsh and the quality of the place is superb. Bed was comfy, hot tub lid required two of you to removeput on which was fine for us.

Really lovely property and we enjoyed our stay. Close to local towns. Would love to give 5 stars, however as theres no cover over the hot tub we unfortunately lost a couple of days use of the hot tub due to the rain!

Lesley

Park Bothy was unbelievably clean. The facilities were lovely and and well appointed for a couple. That being said, there were a few minor frustrations during our trip. 1. When we arrived there was no fire lighters to light the fire. With such a main feature of the property I thought this was frustrating. I called and I was told that someone would drop them off soon and that took 3 hours. 2. The radiator in the bedroom didnt work. I again called the maintenance and someone was sent to look at it the same chap bought fire lighters but again it was around 3 hours since I reported the issue and we were just sat about during our relaxing break waiting for someone. We were also told he needed to come back the following day to fix so again, no heat in the bedroom in November. 3. The bedside lamps dont work on the far side of the bedroom. I didnt even want to bother with this as it was late and we only had one more night. 4. The knives were really poor in the kitchen. They are more dangerous when blunt than sharp. Id like to reiterate that aside from the above the stay was excellent. The hot tub was fantastic, the place was cosy, easy to find and an easy walk to Stow and Bourton. The above points are just feedback that would of made our stay perfect. We would certainly return.

We really enjoyed our stay! Everything was great and the cottage is in a fantastic location for what we wanted to do.

Absolutely fantastic, loved every minute of being there

Nicola

We had a 2 night stay in July 2023. Initially we thought the place was spotless? We then sat on the sofa and when my wife stood up her black dress was covered in white dog hair. My T shirt was as well. The sofa and cushions weren't clean. The sofa isn't comfortable enough for a 275 a night accommodation and I think anyone paying this much would at least expect it to be clean. It kind of ruined the stay as even after we dragged the vacuum cleaner out and did it ourselves it still didn't feel clean. I've stayed in dog friendly properties before, as I'm guessing the owners will say its listed as such, but that's no excuse. Park Bothy is really well equipped, comfy bed, a nice log burner and in a nice quiet spot. Just a shame about the horrible sofa.

Daniel

Location was perfect with the majority of places we wanted to see were no more than 15 mins away. Garden was perfect for our mini dasch as was indeed secure. We did however come home a day early as we did not find the bed very comfortable and felt sore and stiff waking up. In my opinion the living area needed a big deep comfy sofa to curl up upon, sadly the one there was more like a waiting room seat at a doctorsdentist. Cant fault the facilities, just the level of comfort was not what me and my wife were used to which was a shame as the property was lovely.

We had a lovely stay at Park Bothy! We were so glad to have found this little gem whilst visiting The Cotswold. Everything we needed was at the cottage even some milk & cookies for us which was a lovely touch after a long journey. The property itself as described is beautiful and homely, our little dog was so at home with a lovely garden at the front. The bed was amazing & comfy and hot tub was an additional bonus, lovely and clean. We didnt realise how easy it was to get to places, Bourton On The Water was only a 67min drive and other places including shops only a quick trip in the car! Check in was a 4pm which was well suited for us and the drive is right next to the house.m so handy! The only comments we could make was some things needed maintenance I.e bathroom shelf, we found the bathroom & lounge could have been hoovered a little more and the front gate I noticed the property next door had chicken wire on and ours didnt. With our dog only being small, she did try and attempt to sneak through the gaps in the fence. It would be nice if that could be added just to make it even more secure, with there being a road near by. Thank you for an amazing stay, we will 100 recommend and would stay again!

Rebecca

We couldnt fault it. Cant wait to come back fingers crossed this year. So comfy and a nice home feel to it.

The fourth time we have been and we will 100 come again. Its a shame a few things have gone missing and not been replaced. The table mats, protective glove for the fire and vegetable peeler. The frying pan was also so damaged it was unusable. These are, of course, minor points but a shame.

Great location Clean Very secure for dogs We had a lovely stay The little ... Great location Clean Very secure for dogs We had a lovely stay The little touches of providing milk and biscuits was much appreciated

We had a fantastic stay at Park Bothy. It was in a great position to explore all of the Cotswolds. The accommodation was a great size for a one bed place and the hot tub was a lovely extra to improve the stay even more. The bed was extremely comfortable and it had facilities to self cater with ease. It was truly dog friendly and it was secure to let my pooch roam freely outside. To take to the next level it would have been lovely to have some sun loungers in the garden to sun bathe! I would absolutely recommend a stay here

A perfect place to stay, exactly what we wanted, loved it, had everything you could need for a comfortable break, an exceptional property. Well placed for visiting the beautiful surrounding villages and NT properties. Would definitely recommend.

Charles

Perfect place to stay to explore places to see don't need to go far

Rosalind

Thank you for supplying all the necessary items like soap and tea towels, along with the milk and biscuits. And for having such a well equipped kitchen. We had a lovely stay. It may be helpful to have had a small information pack like how the heater and the fire work.

Everything you could possibly need was available at this beautiful bungalow. I want to live here!

Very comfortable and quiet stay, perfect for 2 people and very safe should you wish to bring your furry friend! The barn was well placed for visiting the well known areas in the Cotswolds. There were a few issues that were dealt with straight away by the management company, although it would be useful for future tenants to note that the plug to switch on the hob is located behind the microwave not the switch marked hob, it took a maintenance man a little while to discover this which made for a rather late supper on the first night!

Nicola

Great stay would have another few days spotless and everything you need , trying to book again thanks

Siobhan

Really nice property, very clean and provided with all we needed for a nice stay. Hot tub lovely and private and garden nice and secure for our dog. Would recommend.

Really great holiday property. Thoroughly enjoyed it. A couple of minor suggestions as dog owners, visiting a dog friendly property an out door tape and hose by front door would be really useful especially in winter! Some more wine glasses we bought two plastic wine glasses for hot tub and left in cupboard.

Graham

Excellent property. Loved the rural setting. Very clean. Large Bedroom with Extra large comfortable bed. Only negative, during winter months check in needs to be earlier. At 1800 hrs it's dark so if unfamiliar with the area made it slightly difficult to find.

Having stayed here 5 times we were slightly disappointed on this visit as property alleged deep clean due to Covid and checkin time is 6pm to allow for this. However there was no evidence of a deep clean as property was quite dirty & dusty. The late checkin means we paid for our first days holiday but had no access until the evening. The property is looking very tired & needs refreshing & redecorating. Also inventory is missing lots of items in the kitchen. Crockery is chipped & lots of odd glasses & not a pair that matches! We had a family party & expected at least a set of 6 glasses & unchipped crockery. Its not a cheap property to rent & our expectations were not fully met on this occasion. We will return but the property needs some well needed TLC to warrant the price.

Pauline

Only one very minor thing, there was only one wine glass in the cupboard, we could not even use it as it was cracked. We do wish we had taken our comfortable garden chairs as we spent time in the garden and didnt find the wooden picnic table comfortable for very long. Other than that everything was perfect for us, there was nothing we needed that wasnt provided.

Kieran

Really enjoyed the holiday and the place was so lovely just wasnt happy that using the hot tub was an additional cost on top of the price advertised even though the hot tub was designated for the property.

It was perfect

Perfect

This wonderful hideaway is just perfect if your looking for a relaxing breakaway from hustle and bustle of everyday life. In the middle of nowhere with some fantastic walks on the doorstep. The cottage is very secure for dogs. The kitchen has everything you?ll need if you enjoy cooking. And is well equipped with pretty much everything you?ll need. The private courtyard where the hot tub is situated, is ideal for privacy. We meet the owner who was very pleasant and informed us as soon as we arrived that the LED light was not working on the hot tub ( not an issue for us ). This was sorted within a couple of days. We will defiantly make Park Bothy a yearly place to visit for our staycations. Already looking to re-book and we haven?t even left yet.

Sinead

The fire alarm was beeping during the first night but it was fixed really quickly the next morning after we rang, was impressed. Nice and quiet location, comfortable rooms and furniture, lovely hot tub. Only improvement might be seeing if there's a way to make it feel less exposedmore private when all the curtains are open down the side of the building... perhaps a high fence, hedge or similar? Also, was happy to pay extra for the hot tub but overall felt a bit expensive for what it was, especially as it was self catering.

Kirsty

Lovely lodge really enjoyed our time away here. Peaceful and relaxing.

Richard

What a fabulous cottage clean bright had everything you could ask for, is very ... What a fabulous cottage clean bright had everything you could ask for, is very quiet and the jacuzzi is clean and very private , Dog walking is excellent too and close by Cant wait to go again

Hannah

The accommodation was clean, comfortable and we'll equipped. We had a wonderful time.

My wife and I had a lovely relaxing couple of days. The property was felt very cosy and had the right facilities for a few days break from normal life! Its in a great location, being in such a quiet area but not too far from shops and pubs in nearby locations such as Burford and Bourton on the water. Would definitely recommend.
