Sep 06,2024Cottage left in a dirty disgusting state by previous guests , On our arrival the cottage haven't been cleaned for our arrival, definitely ruined our experience Lovely cottage but the traffic noise is terrible interrupted sleep for the whole of our stay , parking on street, park at your own risk road is a a rat run for local traffic

Sep 06,2024Great properties with this company. We went back to a previous one we stayed at and had a great time. There were a couple of minor housekeeping issues, which I reported at the time and followed up with BoltHole customer service on return. They sorted this issue quickly and exceeded my expectations. Will definitely use again.

Sep 03,2024Bolthole Retreat were incredibly accommodating and responsive, making sure we had everything we needed to make the perfect stay. Their instructions are extremely clear and precise and surprised us with a hamper :) The cottage was the quintessential English country retreat with attention to detail and comfort. Bolthole were highly recommended to us and I would in term strongly recommend them if you are looking for the perfect charming stay at the Cotswolds!

Sep 01,2024Such a special place to stay! Banbury hill farmhouse is beautiful and carefully styled. The bedrooms are comfy and the spacious and everything we could possibly have needed was available to us! We hired a private chef , Matt from El Torro who was recommend by the cafe on the farm. He was excellent and made our stay even more special.

Aug 29,2024It is a lovely place, very particularly furnished, i.e. a very peculiar combination which creates a cozy atmosphere. And it is a very good spot for starting daily jouneys to the many fabulous places in the Cotswolds.

Aug 27,2024The Other House was a brilliant location for a little mini-moon following our wedding! Had all the amenities required, and was in a stunning location! The host was brilliant and rapid at responding! 100% recommend!

Aug 24,2024We experienced a life-threatening safety issue at a bolthole property and they have so far reacted far below the level needed to ensure the safety of future guests. I can’t believe this, but they rented us a property where you could not get out of the main entrance from the inside. The keys to other exits had also been swapped so it was almost impossible to get out. Creepy and dangerous. It was also extremely dirty and there were 3 European hornets in the property. When we complained, they said that the property “has met all fire regulations as necessary” which was 100% not true when we visited. Very disappointing issue and response from bolthole. Do not expect their properties to hold up to a high standard and do not expect an adequate response when they fall short.

Aug 08,2024The property was opposite a building site - covered in scaffolding with up to 8 builders vans outside and machinery! We were not told ahead of booking and had to check out early due to the constant noise and builders dust everywhere. Our complaint has been ignored by Bolthole Retreats who said it was not their problem as its "outside" the property. A summer holiday completely ruined as well as a lot of money lost - do not book with them!!!!

Aug 07,2024Location perfect, everything lovely and clean, had absolutely everything you could need , beautiful place,with it's own private garden, car parking was a real plus, the reason for only 4 stars was the toilet seat moved when you sat, also the shower was good and powerful but looked a bit tatty around the bottom and appeared to be seeping on to the floor, having said all this....It would not stop me from booking again

Aug 06,2024We had the best time ever! We had the most beautiful time at Kington Grange with our 8 grandchildren. The house and grounds were a garden of delights with a marvellous swimming lake with paddle boards, a hot tub, a tennis court, geese to feed and lovely gardens and grounds. The children were active in it all from dawn to dusk and so happy with so much to do. The house too is beautiful, full of interest and comfort and it just swallowed our party of 13 up with space to be together and also to find tranquility when needed. Our hosts Susan and Phil could not have been kinder and more helpful, both before our visit and during our stay. We couldn't recommend this Bolthole stay more highly - it has something for everyone and more! Culture, class, adventure and comfort. We will return! Thank you Susan and Phil (and Fin plus 2!) for making our stay so special.

Aug 04,2024This was indeed the best experience of holiday accommodation, location and complete relaxation! From booking through to arrival, everything was straightforward. As soon as we walked into the property we felt at home and had everything we needed to enjoy our stay.

Aug 03,2024Amazing property with lovely hosts. Swimming pool was fun & well needed during the great weather.

Aug 03,2024Really beautiful property with everything we needed and more! Found the automated lighting system a bit of a pain but other than that we really loved being there and was a great base for our adventures in Warwickshire. Special mention to housekeeping who were so wonderfully accommodating and not imposing, we really appreciated them!

Sep 08,2024Whippet Cottage in Bretforton is a beautiful, perfect place to stay. A home from home and we didn't want to leave. The booking process was simple and everything was as described. Very happy holidayers.
