Hound Cottage

Such a lovely cottage in a great location. Tastefully done, with modern features whilst retaining all its character and olde worlde charm. Very comfortable, great location, everything we could hope for for a great week’s break and more.

Overall a really pleasant stay. Felt misled by the non functioning wood burner described as "ornamental fireplace" with photo in description showing wood burner and log basket beside it. The bedrooms suffer from traffic noise, so, if possible, need enhanced secondary glazing. The beds could probably also do with renewing as the mattresses feel a bit old. The kitchen is fantastic, extremely well equipped, in excellent working order with the benefit of underfloor heating. Location is great for walking to shops, pubs and restaurants. Parking isn't on site but wasn't a problem for us as we didn't want to use ours.

An excellent cottage. Lots of olde world beams, floors, windows, staircase but with a beautiful modern kitchen and bathroom. It was very well equipped and spotlessly clean.In a really good position only a few yards from shops, pubs, restaurants. We found parking nearby. Ideal.

This was a delightful place to stay. The cottage had lots of character but with a modern kitchen and bathroom it had everything you need for a family to stay comfortably for a week or more. It was spotlessly clean and very well equipped too with plenty of space (we were a family of four with an 18 and 21 year old) We enjoyed the location as it was a short walk to the lovely High Street where there were plenty of pubs, several restaurants and cafes and some lovely shops. We had a Tesco delivery for essentials on the day we arrived but there is a small Co Op and several farm/grocery stores so you can get whatever you need. Just be aware that the house is on a steep hill, the road is very busy at times and although you can pull up in front of the house to load/unload, you can’t park there and need to find a spot further down the hill, in a side street (we used Sheep street) or the free car park about 10 minutes walk away. None of these were an issue for us personally. The location is great to visit other places in the Cotswolds. I definitely recommend this property

The cottage is in an amazing location, just a 5 minute walk into Burford High Street. The house is a lovely mixture of original quirkiness and modern equipment. We really enjoyed our stay and were very comfortable. We used map leaflets at the property to plan a few walks - very useful thanks. Others have mentioned the traffic noise - I am afraid it is really busy, even through the night. Parking was also a bit of a faff, as the cottage has no spaces. It IS possible to park for free but it's a bit of a lottery. Overall, we loved Burford and the cottage, with all the facilities and amenities, but we'd probably stay somewhere less busy if we were to visit the area again.

This is one of the best cottages we have ever stayed in - lots of character, spacious and very well-equipped. It is located at the top of the High Street in the lovely Cotswold town of Burford, which has a wide range of shops, pubs etc. You have to park in a public car park at the foot of the hill, and it's quite a climb back up - though you can park in a slip road outside the cottage to unload/load. Also note that the bedrooms are up steep spiral staircases which could be tricky for small children or anyone not steady on their feet.

We really enjoyed our stay at Hound cottage. The location is fabulous. The cottage was very clean and well equipped. Lovely outside space and modern kitchen. Modern bathroom with good shower. Wi fi worked well. 3 recommendations which we hope is helpful. There is no hair dryer and this should be mentioned in the description, so bring your own. Secondly, there was no welcome pack or bag. The cotswolds have so much local produce. In our experience every cottage/apartment welcomes you with something. Thirdly, parking. Easy o unload outside the cottage but you have to park in the town which is free in places. Just some helpful guidance about this in advance would be helpful. Note, we parked in sheep street which was convenient.

Very good location to surrounding areas. Burford is a beautiful place to stay. House was very cosy and we enjoyed our time here. I'm sure it was due to Covid that the house was very bare and under normal circumstances it would have felt more homely. Very well equipped and modern kitchen.
