Convenient Urban Oasis
Vicky and Jake were there to meet us and were very helpful with instructions on how to use heating and appliances within the apartment, we got good helpful advice on the local area and were made very welcome. Lots of little extras to help us feel at home and it was an extremely comfortable place to come back to and relax after a long day at the races or on the tourist trail. We would definitely consider using the apartment again in future visits to Cheltenham.

Waterside Studio flat - Sleeps 2 - Central&Parking
It was a good quiet location and lovely to overlook the water while having breakfast. Everything was in easy access or walking distance. We would definitely stay here again.

Oxford Riverside Apartment
I really enjoyed my stay at Karl's flat. It had a separate kitchen & bathroom. It was very easy to find and get checked in. It was very easy to walk to various places we were visiting. Karl was happy to recommend somewhere we could keep the car over night etc. I loved the fact we could see the Thames outside our window and on our last morning we walked to a lovely cafe called The Paper Boat. Thank you so much.

Velvet Nest 5 min walk from train station
I bought this as a mini getaway for my Mum and Grandma for my Grandmas 90th Birthday. Great location - easily walking distance into Leamington centre. My grandma loved looking out over the canal with her morning coffee. The both said the venue was very comfy and well equipped.

A Rustic Retreat in Nature
A cosy contained flat sitting about an absolutely stunning valley, overlooking a wood beyond. Holly's flat was absolutely perfect for what I wanted - an away from it all, peaceful location where I could study and write. I love nature and I was surrounded by deer, incredible birdsong, red kites, pheasants and so much more. I was lucky to be here for the bluebells and also the golden fields of rapeseed. Ideal location for anyone who likes hill walking, hiking and / or is doing the Cotswold Way. It takes less than 10 mins to drive into Cheltenham, but this place is truly an oasis of calm and serenity. A 6-min drive to the nearest large supermarket, so that was handy. The furniture etc might be a tad dated but, honestly, the price reflects that fact and, frankly, I loved that this wasn't a show home, but rather a well-loved country place. Holly was wonderful to interact with. I recommend this flat in the heart of the Cotswolds. The bed is super comfy too!

Oxford city centre Modern 2-Bed flat
Thank you, we had a lovely stay in Oxford. It was a short walk to the center, with a nice walk by the river. The apartment was well equipped, clean, great beds. Bujar was very responsive and an excellent host.

Elegant flat in Oxford Centre with Parking and AC
The location was great, close to Christ Church and the Main Street. It was peaceful and adequate. Thank you Mariano.

Bright Apartment w/ River View in Central Windsor

The Boathouse Stone Cottage
Absolutely loved our stay here. Perfect location, easy to go out and come back if needed. Comfy beds. Milk provided Private court yard but we also sat out by the river to people watch. The free river cruise you get with here was a nice touch. My husband thinks best place we've stayed. Lovely homely feel, we didn't want to leave. Will definitely be back. Only one thing after long drive there, there were no tea bags only a herbal one (I do normally try and remember some) but after a short walk to town to get some soon had cuppa in hand! Very handy for shops restaurants and walks along the river. Perfect few days. Thanks

Lovely Lakeside Home private jetty, kayak and BBQ
We had a very enjoyable stay with the family for a major birthday celebration. The accommodation and location are really lovely. The kayaks with life jackets were available. We had a few minor cleanliness issues which couldn't be resolved during our stay but we did receive modest compensation. One observation; the ladder style steps up to the mezzanine are very steep and not suitable for young children on their own and the beds up there are too small for fully grown adults or tall teenagers!. This is not addressed in the spec of the accommodation. We ate at a local restaurant, The Crown at Ampney Brook. Food and service exemplary.

Pennyroyal Lodge - HM31 - Lakeside Spa Property
Calm place and well maintained, we enjoyed the stay.

Boutique Lakeside Lodge - Heart of the Cotswolds
We had the most relaxing weekend in Will and Amanda’s home. We took our paddle boards and used them on the lake directly outside. It was perfect in every way. We will definitely be back, Thankyou😊

Cotswolds water park
We had a great weekend staying at Andy & Anne’s lakeside lodge. The accommodation was stylist, spotless, comfortable & homely & had everything we needed. As the weather was so amazing we sat out most of the time, overlooking the beautiful lakeside views. I would certainly recommend a stay here.

Cotswolds Getaway 'Rainbow Lodge' Lake views
What a wonderful stay! Great Lake House and beautiful sceneries. Kids will love this place as there’s tons of goose/ducks around and lots of space to walk around. Tricia has been so kind and welcoming, even dropped in to say hi and sent us some coffee & wine. What a graceful host, thank you once again 💕

The Woodshed
The Woodshed was absolutely beautiful and looked exactly like the pictures. Our host was incredibly kind, thoughtful and we truly enjoyed the delicious cake. If you’re looking for a cozy and unforgettable stay, just pack your bag and head to this Woodshed . It’s truly worth every penny. We had such a lovely time and would definitely come back!

River Thames near Windsor, Heathrow & London
We lovely Rebecca place. Calming and airy decor made us feel relax and at home. We had everything we needed. It was a perfect fit for our group of three generations of women. Beautifully appointed rooms one for each of us and so many lovely spaces with room to relax as a group or have some personal space. The outdoor areas, especially on the riverside were magical watching the swans glide by. If you’re considering this accommodation, you won’t be disappointed. Communication was also fantastic :-)

Reed Warbler HM111 Penthouse Lake Retreat & Spa
I had a birthday weekender with friends and the apartment is really lovely and suited us perfectly. Not just clean, but comfortable too with everything you need. The host is great and helpful. It all made the stay so much more enjoyable. 100% would recommend.

Beautiful first floor flat with balcony
Great place to stay for both work and pleasure. Parking right outside the front door. Walking distance of shops and restaurants. Turn left out of the property and you’re on the river. Turn right out the property, cross the road and you’re at the abbey. Perfect.

Set in stunning surroundings
Beautiful home, perfect place to stay. The garden is absolutely amazing. Claire Marie was very welcoming, made us feel at home. Went out of her way to ask if we needed anything. Generally a lovely, friendly host. I would highly recommend to stay here. Everything was perfect and it made our weekend.

The Hideaway @ Flagham Cottage.
The Hideaway was perfect for our stay. Very clean and modern with ample storage in the bedroom. We found the information provided on places to visit and where to eat very useful along with helpful instructions on how to access the lake from the accommodation. The patio doors from the living area do overlook the owners garden but the beautiful view of the lake more than compensates. There is a private courtyard area with seating to the left of the entrance for guests who require more privacy. All in all a very relaxing place to stay after a busy day exploring as well as lovely walks on your doorstep. We would be more than happy to return.

Riverside Apartment Wraysbury, Nr Windsor/Heathrow
Cozy and clean, perfect location to explore London and Windsor as Sunnymeads train station is only a few minutes walk away. The George steakhouse is 20 minutes walk, well worth a visit, friendly staff and lovely food. Welcome basket left by Linda was a lovely touch. We would definitely recommend and hope to return next time we want to visit the area.

Lovely Oxford apartment with free parking
We had a short stay of only two nights and didn’t really get around to using the many amenities provided, but never felt we lacked for anything that we did need. House and bed were comfortable, bathroom shower fixtures were easy to work. Good stay.

Water's Edge
oh my goodness what a position actually on the River Thames. It was perfect for my 93 year old mother as no stairs to climb. Accurately described, a little rustic. Great communication replying in a few minutes. Feel very lucky to have stayed at Waters Edge.

Immaculate 1 bed apartment Longcross Film Studios
I wish I could find the right words to describe how amazing our stay was, but I will try! First of all, Karen is the most amazing host. Always friendly and happy to help me. We had a peculiar situation as we were relocating from abroad and she was so kind and generous with us. The apartment was spotless and had good quality linen, towels and amenities. The bed is very comfortable and the wardrobe is very big, making this place ideal also for long stays like ours. The parking space is safe and convenient with the lift taking you in front of the door. The view from the balcony is so nice and peaceful with birds and ducks around all the time. We enjoyed the place so much, but we also appreciated the pleasant walk to the train station to go to central London or Reading. Overall, I couldn’t have wished for a better place for our first home in the UK. I know that when I will have people visiting, I will always try to book Karen’s place and I will miss it so much.
