Fantastic stay from start to finish! Timber Lodge was spotless, decorated.with care, and had everything we needed. The location was perfect to visit the Cotswold, Blenheim Palace, Oxford and even further afield Bath, London or Windsor castle (just 1 1/2h away). The host was very friendly and responsive with great activity suggestions like watching a local polo match! Would absolutely stay here again—highly recommend!

Lovely cottage in a handy location

Lovely cottage and village, a stones throw from the Fleece Inn. Handy location to explore the Cotswolds.

Anniversary Weekend trip

We both had a wonderful time staying at Old Fox Cottage and cannot praise the cottage highly enough it was beautiful with real comfort and period charm both immaculately maintained with everything you need.The cottage is in a lovely village with a amazing famous Inn - The Fleece Inn lliterally just across the road with an excellent menu which we took advantage of,very enjoyable easy to recommend. Bretferton is a very quiet small village but with some first class easy access trips in the beautiful countryside of the Cotswolds. We have both been very pleased with our choice and we happily recommend both this Cottage and the area .

Timothy

Lovely stay in perfect Cotswold cottage.

Just what one wants or dreams of when you imagine a getaway in a lovely thatched roof cottage in a small village with a historic pub around the corner and the very handy Community Store just down the street.

Michael

Fox Cottage was the perfect base for us to enjoy a countryside break. Fell in love with the Fleece Inn and the charming village. Brilliant place to stay.

Tom

Wedding retreat

We chose Old Fox cottage as a base for our son's wedding at the Fleece Inn. It was perfect. As well as being convenient it was a cosy, comfortable home from home. It was a great place to relax and unwind after a couple of hectic days preparing and clearing up after the wedding.

Samantha

Another wonderful stay at Old Fox Cottage

This was our fourth stay at Old Fox Cottage and each time we feel like we are in the most wonderful home-from-home. We look forward to our next stay!

Mercedeh

A week away much needed following the death of my Mother

From start to finish our experience with your company was superb. I was looking for a cottage within driving distance of David Austin Roses and Kat found the perfect spot. Also village with a pub and near other villages. Again ticked all the boxes. My wife is very light sleeper and the noise from the fridge did sometimes wake her. All in all a perfect week and will be sure to use your company again.

Stephen

Fox cottage

An excellent cottage, very well equipped, cosy, felt like home, excellent location especially being so close to the lovely pub. I really was made up that they had decorated the cottage with Christmas decs, that was a brilliant addition to our stay. Would definitely say again.

Nicola

Outstanding, dreamy, cosy, 100000/10 cottage countryside experience. If you are considering other places in the area, stop and book this one instead. My sister and I stayed for three nights and it could not have been more perfect countryside getaway. We will be coming back!

Erin

Perfect cottage

This cottage was perfectly located to tour the Cotswolds. It was warm, clean and had everything we needed.

Adele

Cosy cottage

A very cosy cottage. Very clean and inviting. Lots of charm.and features. In a really nice village close to the fleece pub. Highly recommend.

Mark

Relaxing quality time away

If this cottage was a person it would be Mary Poppins no other words required ,beautiful inside and out tastefully decorated and added bonus of course which was country pub yards from cottage which served excellent food.Highly recommend.

Louise

Quaint Cotswold Village with the perfect cottage to stay in

This is our second time staying in Old Fox Cottage. The last time was in 2019 with our two daughters. We loved it and wanted to return. The thatched roof cottage is clean and well decorated. Cozy hearth room with a warm electric fireplace, inviting sunroom , instant hot water for the shower and tub, comfortable bed. The town is the quintessential Cotswold town with a great historic pub called the Fleece Inn. Cons: Primary bedroom bed, although comfortable, sags a bit. Shower has a good supply of hot water, but is small, has minimal receptacles to plug in and charge devices.

Michael

The loveliest of stays.

As a woman traveling alone my comfort level is always a top priority. I want to feel safe sleeping alone in the property but also feel like the space is a warm and welcoming place to rest and retreat. This property Fox Cottage was All those things. I cooked most of my meals in the perfect little kitchen and enjoyed quiet evenings in the lounge area. The bedroom felt like a cozy nest. I slept peacefully. The logistics like parking, location, getting in and out with key were all easy and excellent. I greatly appreciated having a washer... it really allowed me to lighten what clothes I traveled with. All around excellent stay and exceptional service.

Elizabeth

Delightful modern cottage really enjoyed our stay.

Jeremy

From the moment we stepped inside, we felt at peace. A spotlessly clean, beautifully designed, elegant space. Every feature has been carefully considered and everything you could possibly need has been provided. Tucked up in the beautiful soft bed, between quality linens, looking out the ancient windows felt like heaven. The village was magical - from the community store to the thousand year old church to the Inn. We ate at The Fleece Inn on both nights and it was fabulous. Could not recommend this cottage highly enough.

Emma

Great country hideaway

We loved our stay at Fox cottage, perfect for our family of 4. Very cosy & quiet in the village with a superb old pub across the road serving excellent food. Brilliant base for exploring the surrounding Cotswold villages.

Emma

My second stay at Old Fox Cottage

This was my second stay at Old Fox Cottage and was again a wonderful experience. My husband said it is the nicest holiday cottage we have stayed in, it is located in an lovely position close to the wonderful Fleece Inn, Cotswolds villages and amenities.

Joanne

Cozy and lovely cottage

We fell in love with this cottage the moment we opened the door. It is decorated in a lovely way with all kinds of details that make it look "vintage". It is very cozy, with comfortable armchairs, cushions, rugs, etc. The main bedroom is adorable. It has a good-sized wardrobe, sufficient for holiday clothes. We didn't use the second bedroom, but it is nice for the kids (with several books for them to read). The kitchen has all the appliances you may need, and the conservatory (dining room) is amazing (the only thing I would point out is that when it is sunny, it can be a little challenging to eat there). The garden was a little bit overgrown, but we had some nice evenings there. We loved the cottage and felt completely at home. We highly recommend it. When we come back to the Cotswolds, this is the place we will return to.

Josefina

My favourite accomodation on my 8 weeks Europe Vacation. Everything was absolutely perfect.

Lovely Relaxing Week

Our week long stay at the Old Fox came at the end of a travel intensive UK visit. My sister joined my husband and I, so we were three adults. The cottage had the old thatched roof charm we were hoping for, modernized enough to make for a very comfortable stay. It was a bit of a steep climb up to the bedrooms, but that was expected for the cottage charm. Though the bathroom is on the main level it has a lovely shower and soaking tub and a good sized medicine cabinet to store all of our toiletries in. The very popular Fleece Inn pub is a very short walk out the front door. The disadvantage is that the overflow parking during lunch and dinner hours fills up the block in front of the cottage and we had to park down the street and make a couple of trips unloading the car. They also seem to have nightly events so one hears music and joyful voices until 10:30 or so. This was not a problem for us, but something some might want to be aware of. If you are planning to eat a dinner or two there, reservations need to be made two to three days in advance. We found the little local grocery (just a very short walk away) to be delightful and they had most everything we needed for breakfast, lunch and dinners. We also brought home a few treasures found in the Ark, a small antique shop practically next door. Though small, we relaxed in pretty much every seating area/room available (including outside). The conservatory was our favorite, with lots of light and garden views and bird watching. For those curious about the layout, as I was, the front door enters into a small sitting room, with two comfortable chairs. The TV/living room is off to the left. The entry room includes a closet perfect for coats. The kitchen is straight through the entry hall, with the stairs up to the bedrooms to the left and the bathroom and laundry area just beyond the stairs. The conservatory and garden door are just beyond the kitchen. The master bedroom has an amazing closet space, and two small windows with lovely views. The twin bedroom is quite tiny, two adults may struggle to share it, but probably perfect for children, and it includes a lovely little collection of children’s books. If you have sunny weather, don’t miss the outside area of the Fleece Inn. It’s a great little park in its own right, and includes a tiny little lending library.

Allan

Very warm and cosy cottage with all amenities needed for a comfortable stay in the Cotswolds!

Andreea

A Perfect Cottage

We booked Old Fox Cottage to celebrate the Christmas holidays. Communication before our arrival was fantastic and provided easy directions to the cottage. Once we entered we were thrilled to see the cottage had been decorated for the holidays including Christmas crackers. We were also supplied with tea, milk, bread, butter and cake. Just what we needed after our journey. The village itself is very cute and the pub across the square is delicious. We were also provided with some excellent suggestions on additional places to eat. The village is very conveniently located to explore the best of the Cotswolds. The cottage is tiny but did not feel cramped. The kitchen is well stocked for any cooking you want. We had a wonderful time on our holiday and look forward to coming back

Jennifer

Excellent

Great place to spend time to chill out or get out and about in the Cotswolds, would highly recommend staying there.

Mark

Excellent Stay

We had a lovely stay. The cottage was immaculate and very well maintained. Everything you would ever need was provided. We would definitely recommend staying at Old Fox Cottage.

Timothy

Honeymoon at Old Fox Cottage

We stayed at Old Fox Cottage for our honeymoon and all I can say is that it was perfect in every way! The cottage itself is beautiful and sits in an idyllic location where we could enjoy many areas of the Cotswolds at our leisure. It’s beautifully presented with many personal touches that makes you feel relaxed and almost home from home. Many thanks for the wonderful memories. Rob & Tracey

Robert

Great stay

Beautifully extended and renovated cosy thatched cottage. Quality and tasteful. Perfect for eating/drinking at the Fleece Inn a few yards away. Easy reach of Cotswolds main attractions.

Old Fox Cottage

This is a great cottage in a fantastic little town. We really enjoyed our time there. Everything was as advertised - no surprises, and owner was extremely helpful. Highly recommended.

William

Fantastic little cottage

We had a wonderful stay at this lovely little cottage. Everything was picture perfect, comfortable and spotless. The village was very peaceful and we particularly loved the pub (The Fleece Inn). We definitely will be back!

Clementine

Fabulous cottage!

We loved staying in this cottage, it is across the road from an amazing pub in a small village. It is very quiet and every window has a great outlook over trees and pretty streetscapes. The conservatory is beautiful and looks into the backyard which is very private and picturesque. The beds are all comfortable and the house is warm and toasty. The kitchen has everything you could wish for to cook simply or more elaborately while on holidays. Fox cottage has a homely vibe which we loved as we are not from the UK, it felt very English and quaint with loads of room for 2 adults and 2 teenagers. I would stay here again.

Carla

Old Fox cottage

Lovely cottage with a very comfortable bed. The cottage has a lovely garden, conservatory and the interior is furnished gorgeously. The added extras make staying in due to bad weather ensure you don't miss home at all. The village has a lovely old pub with great food and drinks which is only 60 paces away.

John

Old Fox Cottage

Lovely cottage in fabulous location.We had everything we needed.Very well equipped and spotlessly clean.

Margaret

A lovely cosy cottage with everything we needed

We had a fantastic stay at Old Fox Cottage. The bed and bedding were super comfy. Parking was easy and pub was amazing. The shower was brilliant, the heating was quick/responsive. Nice touch that cake/milk/butter/bread were left for us on arrival too!

David

TLC

As you can see by your records we have stayed at Old Fox many many times over the last few years. Always lovely, well equipped. A little however... as we know the cottage well......it really is at the point now where it needs a really good deep clean . The skirting boards are quite dirty, the bathroom in particular and behind the toilet. The upholstery on the chairs in the sitting room is very stained and needs professional cleaning,as do the carpets,spillage stains on the rugs in the ,living room and conservatory. Needs a good hover round all the edges of all the rooms. The bed is very very comfortable...but it has had the same valance sheet in all the times we have stayed....does question if it has ever been washed?.. The sun came out during our stay, the windows obviously haven't been cleaned for some time, worst ones are at the front of the cottage. Lovely to have a dish washer in the kitchen...but during our weeks stay which is usual..why only 5 dish wash tablets provided...very strange...good job we eat out every day..so we do very little washing up. Would I stay again..of course...

Cindy

Lovely, cosy cottage.

Beautiful cottage in a lovely setting. So comfortable with everything provided. Our stay was too short and went much too fast. We hope to come back again.

Guest

A pleasant week in the Cotswolds

We spent a very enjoyable week in Old Fox Cottage. The location is ideal for exploring the nearby towns and villages. The Cottage is very comfortable and well equipped.

Stephen

Amazing Cottage

An amazing cottage with everything you need. If I have to give a negative it would be better pillows for the bedrooms.

Paul

Our second visit to Old Fox Cottage

We love the cottage, it’s like a home from home and very comfortable. This was our second visit in six months so that probably says it all! Thanks so much for a lovely stay in a gorgeous cottage with friendly villagers and a great pub within 50 steps! We will be back again!

Kim

Old fox cottage

A really amazing cottage right next to a national trust Pub that serves great food and drink, couldnt of asked for any more a great stay and I'm sure we will be back in future.

Nicholas

Brilliant stay at a great location!

We booked Fox Cottage last minute (on the day of arrival) and felt very fortunate to have our booking accepted. This didn't take away from how clean and tidy the place was with a few essentials (including cake) here for us on arrival. We thoroughly enjoyed exploring the Cotswolds and where better to stay than a quintessential cottage such as this. Very thoughtful touches with tasteful decoration it made the ideal spot for a proposal ... She said YES! Would love to come back again and relive the special memories that we made here.

Paul

A perfect home-away-from-home

Old Fox Cottage is one of our favourite family getaway destinations. We have visited multiple times with our two boys and would not hesitate to recommend the cottage for short or long stays. Adam and Lois are the perfect hosts, outfitting the cottage with all the amenities needed for a comfortable and enjoyable stay. The village is charming and everything is a short walk away, including The Fleece Inn and the Bretforton Community Shop. We cannot wait to visit again!

Top Property

What a great little cottage. Clean, tidy and everything you could need for a lovely break. Perfectly placed to visit all the great Cotswold villages.

Peter

A cosy cottage with lots of character in a pretty Cotswold village

We had a lovely week in this very attractive and comfortable cottage. It is in a great location, as we were able to venture into Warwickshire and Oxfordshire as well as the Cotswolds. We had some delicious meals in the very atmospheric NT pub over the road.

Elizabeth

A magical cottage

We have stayed in many cottages but Old Fox cottage is number one on our list! It’s a home from home in a lovely village. It was great to have the pub and community shop so close by too. We will definitely be back!

Peter

Wonderful stay

We had a short break in September, and the cottage was beautiful and cosy and is exactly as seen in the photos. It is incredibly well equipped for any length of stay and there has been a lot of thought put into its restoration. Bretforton is a small village and is an ideal quiet base from which to explore the Cotswolds, and I’d recommend the Fleece Inn for beer and dinner! We will be back!

Alistair

Lovely cottage!

Old Fox Cottage is lovely! The conservatory is great to eat in. Well stocked with Blurays etc. The highest mattress I have ever slept on, but very comfortable! Lots of toiletries provided. Only thing I needed that wasn't available was a serving spoon. Handy for the Fleece Inn. Didn't get the weather for sitting in the garden or for a BBQ.

Jacquie

Unique little stay

Lovely little cottage in a beautiful setting with all the little touches. This property was very well equipped. It is a little tired in places and some of the furnishings are well loved shall we say, I found the single mattresses are not the most comfortable for an adult. My children loved playing with the large selection of games and it’s lovely to sit in the conservatory for a meal on a sunny evening.

Abigail

Stunning !

Old Fox Cottage is delightful. It is maintained throughout to a high standard. Nothing is spared...everything provided for a cosy and comfortable stay. The decor and furnishings are just stunning with many quirky features. The cottage is set in the beautiful village of Bretforton close to the breathtaking surrounding villages and landmarks in the Cotswolds. We will definitely stay here again.

Sue

A beautifully decorated wonderful home from home

I had read the fantastic reviews and so was confident that we would have a great time at Old Fox Cottage but the reality greatly surpassed my expectations! The cottage itself is absolutely stunning and the decor is marvellous! My children loved spotting all the little touches everywhere especially all the foxes! We had everything we needed from bath bubbles for the kids to cake bread and milk for us which was just such a wonderful touch. I would re book in a heartbeat. Thanks you for a fabulous stay the only thing is I wish it had been longer!

Lucia

Beautiful thatched cottage in Cotswold countryside

Old Fox cottage is a beautiful, character full building, like stepping back in time whilst still feeling modern and up to date. Tastefully decorated yet packed full of period features, and all the amenities that could be required, maybe though bring a fan if it's hot. The cottage is set in lovely little picture box village of Bretforton in the Cotswolds surrounded by history,with the National Trust Fleece Inn pub literally a stones throw from your door. A wonderful base to visit much of what this beautiful part of the country has to offer, with many lovely places within a few miles. Great hosts, a beautiful place to stay and so much to enjoy. We had a wonderful break and would definitely recommend to all.

Peter

Fox cottage

Lovely stay at a beautiful cottage. Lovely decor with some beautiful touches. Great little village with a lovely pub. Perfect location with some lovely villages. Had a problem with electrics and hot water. Called the owners they came out next day and sorted the problem. Enjoyed our 3 night stay, after a sad year was a great tonic,

Paul

Best place to expend some days in the Cotswolds

We can not thank enough to Adam and Lois for making our stay at the Old Fox Cottage such a lovely and memorable experience. They are without any doubt the best hosts ever! The cottage is super beautiful and very tastefully decorated, it is full of lovely touches, generously supplied and spotlessly clean. We felt like at home from the very first minute, to the point that we decided to extend our holidays for another week!!!! We absolutely recommend the Old Fox Cottage, our stay there was like a dream come true!!

Adán

Cozy cottage in middle of Bretforton

Cozy, quaint cottage in the picturesque village of Bretforton. There is also friendly pub opposite to the property offering delivery. Well-equipped kitchen and overall cozy vibe - fully decorated for Christmas.

Guest

A secret gem.....

Old Fox Cottage was just what my little family of three needed after a crazy few months in 2020. The cottage is everything it looks from the online pictures and more; cozy, welcoming, spotless & well equipped. The location was perfect for exploring this beautiful part of the country and I agree with an earlier review that it was tempting to not give feedback and keep this little cottage a well kept secret! Thank you to the owners for giving such thought and care and sharing their little gem with others.

Guest

A wonderful weekend

We absolutely loved our stay at Old Fox Hall Cottage. It’s in a beautiful spot and the cottage itself is just perfect. Really well equipped and beautifully furnished with great attention to detail. The garden is a lovely sun trap for a g&t in the sunshine! Proximity to the pub is also worth a mention, pizzas are the best!

John

Amazing quarantine at the Old fox Cottage

We stayed in Bretforton for two weeks, since we had to quarantine after entering the UK. We didn't get bored at all, we cooked a lot in the nice kitchen, we enjoyed playing Wii, doing some puzzles that they had there. We also read some of the book that they had in the cottage, and enjoyed the BBQ outside. The cottage was so clean, so confortable, they even had some robes for us. The location of course is amazing, a few step from the Fleece Inn, and from many public footpaths that bring you through the fields around Bretforton. We had an amazing stay at the Old fox Cottage and would stay there again with no hesitation. Also it was really easy to find a parking spot after getting groceries. And the little community shop in the village was providing every essentials.

Elsa-line

What a find....

Almost not wanting to write a review....as this cottage is probably the best we have stayed in. Not sure if I want to share!! We visit the Cotswolds at least twice a year and always stay in a different cottage as they are not quite perfect. Either tired, damp,dirty,uncomfortable cheap bed..I could go on. On opening the front door of Old Fox Cottage, we were met with a lovely fresh smell of a very well kept cottage, everything clean and neat and even a welcome hamper. Loads of space ,seperate eating area and a great bathroom the icing on the cake a truly comfortable bed!!.Thank you for a great break and we will be visiting again.

Cindy

One of the best places we have stayed in the Cotswolds

We loved everything about Old Fox Cottage- clean, full of character and attention to detail. The beds were really comfortable and the whole house is a delight. Would definitely recommend if you’re looking for a quiet spot to take a break and so close to The Fleece Inn which is full of character and amazing food. We will definitely be back.

Olivia

Superb!

A lovely, well equipped and extremely comfortable cottage. The most comfortable bed we have ever slept in. Great location for exploring with The wonderful Fleece Inn a few paces away. Very generous Welcome boxes and a lovely bottle of Champagne sent to us for New Years Eve. Adam was great to communicate with and very helpful. Only downside would be there isn’t any Netflix as advertised. Would definitely return.

Guest

Lovely in every way

We couldn't have asked for a nicer place to stay during our visit over Christmas to see family. The location was perfect and the attention to detail within the cottage was astounding. We never expected full Christmas decorations (even a tree!) but it made the holiday feel more like home as a result. The little touches were amazing, from provisions for a full English breakfast, a scrumptious tea cake, and of course a bottle of bubbly! Already looking forward to our next stay... perhaps in the summer so we can enjoy the cute garden. Thanks so much!

Kate

Delightful thatched cottage

We had the pleasure of staying in Old Fox Cottage while visiting the UK for my nieces wedding and highly recommend it, we will definitely stay there again on our next trip home. The cottage is beautifully furnished and well equipped with everything you need. The National Trust Fleece Inn is a few steps away if you don't feel like cooking and its only a short drive to beautiful North Cotswold villages like Broadway and Chipping Campden.

Joanne

Dream come true

Such a delightful cottage with everything - and more - to feel at home. Wish we could stay longer...

Carri

Was Perfect!

Cottage was lovely. Thank you for the beautiful stay. No negatives, other than we were a little unprepared that there wasnt a supply of toilet paper or dishwasher pods for our stay - just wasn't expecting it. Would have been nice to have a couple more smaller serving bowls in kitchen. Just helpful comments for future. We made do no problem!
