Karen “We thoroughly enjoyed our short break at The Creamery.”
The house has been beautifully restored and all rooms are in keeping with the history of the house whilst utilising modern features like underfloor heating, luxury bathrooms and a stunning kitchen, which was equipped with everything you might need, in fact the best we’ve ever had in all our years of using holiday homes. Due to the time of year we visited we were unable to make use of the pretty garden, but you can see how wonderful it would be on warmer days. Excellent communication with Nicola who left some lovely treats for us to enjoy. Perfectly placed to visit stunning areas of the Cotswolds that are often overlooked by the ‘bigger tourist’ destinations. We will be highly recommending to friends and family.
- Karen, February 2025Thank you for your fabulous feedback. We are delighted to hear you enjoyed your stay with us in the Cotswolds and we hope to welcome you back again for another stay with us soon. Kind regards Manor Cottages. Property Owner

Everything one might need has been thought of and the rooms are beautifully furnished and equipped.

Susan “The Creamery is a wonderful holiday home.”
It is even better than on the photographs. The furnishings, decor and equipment are all stylish and of excellent quality. The beds are very comfortable and both ensuites are excellent. The outside space is pretty and parking is just outside the door. The Creamery is in a beautiful area with walking opportunities and places to visit very close by. Slimbridge and Painswick Rococo Garden are both about 20 minutes away and Bath park and ride is about 35 minutes away. Visit Stroud Market on Saturday morning - an interesting experience and lots of lovely local food to stock up on. There are lovely towns and villages close by and walking on the local commons such as Rodborough, Selsey and Minchinhampton. The owner could not have been more welcoming or helpful and she was full of suggestions for places to visit.
- Susan, May 2024Thank you for your lovely feedback, we are so pleased you enjoyed your stay with us at The Creamery, and visiting the local area, some great recommendations thank you , we look forward to welcoming you back again soon. Best wishes Manor Cottages Property Owner

- Colin, Jan 2024 -
Natalie “This was an A Star, exquisite cottage that cannot be faulted.”
Our stay was perfect and I cannot emphasise that enough! The owners clearly have travelled and stayed in self catering accommodation themselves because every single thing you would want and need was catered for. And even that which you wouldn’t have thought yourself! We loved the cottage so much we simply spent our entire Christmas there - inside, enjoying time together. I cannot think of a better way to say it - when you go on holiday and find 100% contentment on simply staying inside the property then there is nothing to improve on. We hope to spend more Christmas’s here and would highly recommend to anyone. Thank you to Nicola and Matt you were the more beautiful hosts!
- Natalie, December 2023Thank you for your amazing feedback. We are so pleased that you had such a perfect and comfortable stay. We hope we can welcome you back again in the future. Best wishes Manor Cottages Property Owner

Richard “The Creamery is a fantastic cottage.”
Nicola and Matt were very friendly and helpful, making sure that we had everything we needed during our stay. The cottage itself has been recently renovated and had everything we needed to make our stay comfortable. The bedrooms were quiet, the living room was spacious with good lighting and the kitchen was well appointed. Both bathrooms were ensuite (one with a shower, the other with a bath and a shower) and the downstairs bathroom also had a shower. The Creamery has a lovely garden and good car parking space, it is set in a country village and is close to nearby attractions. It helped make our holiday very enjoyable.

“What a beautifully renovated place to stay!”
The décor, space and finishing touches were lovely. Although our stay was short, it was just what we needed! We hope to come back (for longer next time) & continue exploring the area. Thank you for having us, all of the extras for our baby enabled us to travel lighter and were much appreciated. ,The Mertin-Quirks

Jessica “What a superb find of a holiday cottage.”
Not only was it as beautiful as the photographs suggest, it was also better equipped than anywhere we have ever stayed, especially kitchen items. The outside space was a real added bonus, it was wonderfully quiet with gorgeous views of the church and barn. It really was excellent in every way. Nicola was even kind enough to return a left behind item. I could not recommend this place more highly.

“Thank you for a lovely stay and warm welcome!”
We had everything we needed. The Creamery is beautiful. Only a short stay for us and a shame the other members of our group couldn't come due to Covid, but we'll definitely pass on our recommendations to them for next time. ,Alison & Adam
