Perfect house for a family gathering
Great position with lovely views. It was perfect for our family gathering with plenty of space. Really good communication with the owner. The approach is incredibly steep it was much better arriving from the top of the hill downwards. Great outside space would be lovely in the summer.

Long weekend family celebration
Had an excellent time staying at The Woodlands as a family celebrating a big birthday. The property/garden was great, with lovely views from the front. The location was good for both short and long walks, although extremely hilly. Poppy was really communicative from the time of booking right through to the end of our stay. A beautiful home that did not disappoint. Excellent facilities, quality linen, clean and extremely comfortable. Plenty of space for 6 adults and 3 children under 3 years old. Overall we had a wonderful stay and wouldn’t hesitate to recommend it to others.

Fantastic Long Weekend
Stayed at the Woodlands for a long weekend for my wife's and my 60th birthdays. Absolutely fantastic stay from beginning to end. Loved the place so much we did not want to leave. The host, Poppy, was very easy to communicate with and was very flexible regarding check in & out. Will be back to this little (big) gem.

Beautiful house
We loved our stay, the garden area and view from the lounge made it so special. The welcome hamper was a lovely addition and great communication with the owner. There were just a few small things that would have made our stay even better having experienced it with 4 other girls - the upstairs landing really needs a rug. If anyone needed to leave their room, the whole house woke up with the squeaking floor. We all started to move like a ninjas! Also the rooms could really do with mirrors, especially with so many of us getting ready at the same time. Also, plug sockets by the side tables for charging phones and space for a drink on side table are little things that make a difference (the table light takes up a lot of space). These are small things but worth mentioning if it helps future groups have an even more fabulous time.

We stayed for a long weekend to celebrate my wife's 60th birthday. The property was perfect for the occasion with enough space for the family to get together or spread out as appropriate. The facilities were excellent, although as the weather was kind we mostly used the terrace and barbecue area.

Lovely stay in beautiful house with a view. Many places to sit and enjoy the outdoors. On a very steep hill with very badly maintained lane ,called dark lane , which was the only downside.

Lovely stay
This property was spotless clean with good quality bedding and towels, starter pack was ideal with bits and pieces in cupboards. Only problem was that I was driving a defender which didn’t give me much room to get through dark lane with barely an inch or two at each side, would be ok in a smaller car, garden not safe for children. My overall review of this property for 3 days with 8 adults, we had a great time and went out every day, I recommend visiting Burton on the water so beautiful.

Stunning Views!
We stayed here with family in January and the views, home and surroundings were amazing! The home is exceptionally well decked out with a cozy feeling and had all we needed for a stay with while visiting England. The proximity to all the places we wanted to visit was an added perk (Stratford, Cadbury World, Bristol, Bath were all around 1-1 1/2 hours away). We rented a minivan for the trip which did prove a challenge to get to the property but as others suggested, going around the back way helped. All 4 rooms were well appointed and having a bath for our 4 year old was essential and perfect after a long day. Fast internet, games and some fun books were all available. Can’t wait to stay again! Thank you

We loved the property. The access road is steep and described as unsuitable for Vehicles. This is not a problem when the weather is good but after a heavy snow storm we were unable to get out. That being said I valued the sympathetic help offered by our host. Thank you.

Quiet few days catching up friends. The house was very comfortable and warm. We loved every thing about the house .. the beds were very comfortable with high quality bedding. We enjoyed sitting out in the garden and chatting. There was plenty of space to sit inside and the piano was a welcome addition. The area surrounding the house is very pretty. Two coffee shops within walking distance.

Relaxing few days in a house with lovely views
The contact with the management/ owner of the property was excellent and there is an excellent digital handbook provided which is extremely good and provides local information as well as property information. The house was a perfect size for 2 of us even though it had 4 bedrooms. We thought it would better suit 4 guests as the bedrooms weren’t overly large and there are only 2 bathrooms upstairs ( there is of course a lovely large shower room downstairs) However that’s is just our view as we like to have plenty of space!! It’s worth noting - The property is located in a road with a very narrow and very steep lane. The area generally is very hilly so local people are used to this. However - although it wasn’t a problem to us - we did think that it might not suit a person with a low slung car or even a person with limited mobility who was planning on walking straight from the house Overall we had a good break and there are some nice villages to visit in the area- all mentioned in the digital guide book

Great house in beautiful location
Spent a very enjoyable long weekend here with friends. We found the house to be very comfortable and well equipped and we were fortunate to have good weather so made full use of the various outside seating areas. The village is incredibly pretty and the local countryside has plenty of walking opportunities and places to find refreshment. Would particularly recommend the Lavender Bakehouse & Coffee Shop for breakfast and the Lamb Inn in Eastcombe for Sunday lunch.

Fabulous views,great location
Firstly, the lane leading to this property from the main road ( near the wedding dress shop) is STEEP and you cannot see uncoming cars. Not for the novice driver, but we found using the other road in Old Neighbourhood far better. That aside, the property location was beautiful. Poppy was helpful and the welcome hamper was a lovely touch. The house easily accommodates eight adults, spacious living areas and the marvellous view in the main area was a treat to sit with a morning coffee. The kitchen is very well equipped, the top grill plate was very useful. We used the outside area on our return from long walks , such a perfect end to a day. The beds were very comfortable. Luxury toiletries / towels were a plus and good showers. Overall we enjoyed our stay very much, memorable ✨️

Great lounging areas for cosy nights in, with log fire. Bedrooms were comfy. Although we didn’t get the opportunity to sit out , in the summer it would be brilliant with all the seating areas.

Stunning House
Booked the house for my husbands 60th birthday and wasn't disappointed. The house is beautiful with so much attention to detail. The lounge areas have amazing views and the outside lighting at night really is stunning as you walk through the front gates. There is everything you could need in the kitchen, a real home from home. We spent most of the 3 days at the house relaxing as it seemed too comfortable to leave. We went to the Lavender Bakery for breakfast, the food was lovely but would advise booking the day before as it does get very busy, also booked a birthday meal at The Ragged Cot in nearby Stroud (approx 15 mins away), great staff with exceptional food. The hill to reach the house is a little steep (as a previously said) but don't let that put you off as its definitely worth it once you arrive and not a problem at all once you've done it once.

Great views and out of the way
Three of us arranged a work retreat, the Woodlands was ideal in location; out of the way, spacious, and scenic. Our arrival was at night we found the property fairly easily, the incline is quite steep driving up to the property, I was glad I had a suitable vehicle. (Good to note here; if arriving after dark there is a black box about knee hight next to the gate, open that up and flip the switch, the lights will illuminate the path right up to the house). The house is a great location up high with wonderful views, we also ventured to the local supermarket (Tescos), visited the local Co-op for essentials supplies, and the local village shop for fire wood. I would recommend buying plenty of fire wood, this is not supplied with your stay (one fires worth, to get you started). Also the fire seems to have lost its airtightness so the fire burns very intensely but quickly, the local garage sells logs (one bag will keep for about 4-5 hours), kindelling is sold by the sack in the local village shop not far away. My only niggle was the master bedroom shower & sink, and kitchen sink drainage was problematic, but an easy fix for the cleaning team. We spent most of our time in the house looking out at the views, writing, brainstorming, filming (we make videos), and eating. It was a very pleasant and productive stay! Thank you to Poppy for being so incredibly responsive throughout the booking process! Very impressive. Best, Matthew, Angus, and Liz

The most beautiful, magical house
We have just returned from a weekend at The Woodlands for my mum’s 60th birthday. It was recommended to us by my friend who had stayed with her family. This house is so beautiful and feels like home as soon as you arrive. There are so many beautiful touches, including the white company toiletries, and the most incredible view from the huge windows. I am always funny about the cleanliness of places that we stay in, but it was spotless. The kitchen is fully stocked with every utensil you could think of! We also sat in the morning sunshine on the beautiful patio furniture as the house is a real sun trap - even in November! We were sad to leave this morning and will definitely return again in the summer. We have made the best memories and have some beautiful photographs. I would 100% recommend this getaway. Thank you to the fantastic host for your communication and help.

Wonderful house & grounds close to many attractions in the Cotswolds
The house is so lovely. Beautifully furnished and comfortable with good sized rooms. The first drive up the hill was a little worrying as it is very steep and narrow but once you have made the trip once it is fine and we travelled it daily. The house is set in an acre of land with lawn, gardens and trees and beautiful view across the valley. There is a lovely large patio area with great seating and dining table and a charcoal BBQ. If you have young children you would definitely need to be very careful as long drops from some points so they would need to be well supervised. We had a family week away with 3 generations (including a baby) and it was a wonderful place to stay and convenient to so many great places and such an assortment of beautiful pubs. We would certainly return to this property if we were to spend more time in the area.

The setting of this property was lovely. Great views across the local areas with the feel of being in the mountains. Property was in good condition. It’s shame there was only one en suite room which wasn’t ideal for 2 families but easily worked around. Good selection of games to amuse and all basic requirements available. Enjoyed our stay and will definitely be back. Owners have taken onboard some improvements which will help. (No downstairs toilet was a little annoying - although I could see that this is work in progress for the owners.) Great location. Lovely pubs in local areas.
