Holiday houses in Stanford in the Vale

We had a really amazing week in the Artist's Retreat. It's so stylish and cool but it also felt cozy and calm. We were blessed with incredible sunshine but it wouldn't have mattered. The setting is peaceful and private with lovely large grounds and lots of lovely walks nearby. The Hot Tub was fantastic. We used it more than we expected to and the wood-fired heating was easy and a part of the ritual. The tennis court was excellent with loads of rackets, balls and other outdoor equipment provided. We had a lovely welcome on arrival and Kate's local guidebook was very useful. There's so much to do nearby. We walked from the nearby Courts Garden, across local fields to Great Chalfield Manor which was gorgeous. We also used several of the eating-out recommendations. We were sad to go when the time cam and got very used to living life in this lovely place. We'll definitely try and come back again soon.

What a fantastic find. Not even a 10 minute drive to longleat and 30 minutes to Bath. A beautiful home from home. The perfect place to visit with children, with books, toys and equipment. We cannot wait to come back.

Stunning location! I visited here with my husband and two young children and it was perfect for a little family getaway. The weather was definitely on our side too! The lake was so peaceful, we loved everything about the accommodation. We visited Bourton-on-the-water, Chichester Park, Cotswold Country Farm and more. We will definitely be returning!

We had a great family stay in this well equipped and spacious home, literally a minutes walk from the centre of the beautiful village of Bourton-on-the-Water. Lovely welcome pack and helpful & responsive host. Definitely recommended by us all.

Myself and five friends had the most wonderful stay at the beautiful Lake House. Mark was prompt with any queries and kindly let us check-in early after some of our group had travelled from far away. The house was as described and immaculately clean. We had everything we needed in the well stocked kitchen and appreciated the three spot-less bathrooms. The sun shone for us, so we were able to enjoy the wrap-around decked outdoor seating area and take advantage of the kayak and rowing boat. The attention to detail with the provision of sporting equipment and board games was fantastic! We enjoyed walks along the canal and to other easily accessible lakes and had a good choice of cafes, bars and restaurants. My friends all discussed returning in the future as a group and with our families. Thank you Mark for making our weekend.

Hannah’s place is wonderful and Hannah is a great host! She had been super helpful with recommendations and very flexible on check in. The house is lovely with great views and beautiful surroundings. The kids enjoyed the playground and all the amenities within the development. We hope to be back over the summer.

A lovely cottage that was clean and well equipped. Plenty of room for 7 of us and great to have 3 shower/bathrooms and 2 dining areas, so there was room to spread out. The garden was an extra bonus for the children. Great Rissington is a really charming village and within half an hours drive of lots of attractions for both adults and children. Good to have The Lamb pub just down the road. Would recommend.

Lovely stay in stow. Was exactly as described and matched the photos perfectly. Perfect location right in the middle of the town. We were lucky enough to find a parking space on sheep street a one minute walk away. We would definitely recommend this flat. Alex was always quick to respond to questions and gave lots of useful information. Thanks Alex 😊

James was very responsive and accommodating. His accommodation was as described and he was very welcoming. Will stay here again should the opportunity arise.
