Wonderful Trip to the Cotswolds
StayCotswold is a good organization to work with. The owner of the property, Cate, was kind and helpful. She gave us great advice about the area and informed us well on the quirks and joys of staying in her very old and beautiful home. The place was clean, spacious, quiet and lovely.
