Places to stay in Painswick

Great place to stay in a beautifully located house. Everything was as described and the house had all the amenities for a comfortable stay, only wish we were staying for longer!

Amazing house, very comfortable and well equipped. The lakeside deck was dreamy. Good communication and check in process. Highly recommended

We were looking for a secluded stay surrounded by nature and we certainly got it! The apartment is cosy, well decorated and spotless. The hamper and hot tub were well worth the extra cost. The hamper was great for breakfast, especially as there isn't a grocery shop nearby. The wood fired hot tub was a special addition and it's secluded meaning ultimate privacy. The views were breathtaking and the host's were attentive and communicative. Just be wary that the road leading to the apartment is narrow and challenging if you are not used to driving in the deep countryside. We thought it was great value for money and would stay here again!

We had a fantastic stay — the house is absolutely beautiful, with a gorgeous lake view and everything we needed for a comfortable trip. It was a great base to explore the Cotswolds, and the location worked perfectly for that. Noel was always very kind and responsive. He allowed us an early check-in at 2pm when we asked, and was flexible when we needed to adjust the reservation to reduce one guest. If we had to mention anything, it would just be that the rooms get quite bright early in the morning, so blackout curtains might be a great addition. Also, while the 4pm check-in and 10am check-out times are becoming more common, they still feel a little tight — but that’s definitely not unique to this property. Overall, it’s a solid 5-star stay and we’d love to return!

Church Farm is such a beautiful location and the barn itself was stunning; everything was perfect for a relaxing stay in the countryside. The bathtub in the bedroom was a lovely treat and the rainfall shower was excellent too. We really enjoyed walking around the grounds and feeding the animals. Thank you so much for having us - we’d love to come back and would highly recommend your property.

We had the most amazing few nights at Alex’s place. Firstly her communication was amazing with quick responses - she also allowed us to check in 2 hours early as the airbnb was ready! The location is perfect and parking easy at Tesco (although we always managed to park down the street on the left). Despite being in the centre the apartment is silent and Netflix, as well as other streaming channels are easy to access on the TV. We found the bed so comfy and the facilities are very clean! Lastly Alex’s recommendations were amazing - we ate at The Plough Inn at Ford the first night which was an old pub with loads of character and had breakfast at The Croft in Bourton-on-Water which was also incredible! Whilst there we also tried Davenford Cafe and Gastro Burgers which were also lovely but we also enjoyed a drink at The Stag and The Queen’s Head in which both have sunny beer gardens. Overall we had a wonderful stay and will definitely return ☺️

It’s easy to see why this place is booked up pretty much non-stop. The house its self has everything you need for a break and the added bonus of water sports being available (friends staying near us didn’t have such a luxury). As for the location, remote enough to be quiet but close enough to lots of other stuff to do. I was on a canoe in the middle of one of the lakes and couldn’t hear a thing. The area is absolutely stunning and the Sarah and Stuart couldn’t have been more helpful. They let us in a little early as they were ready and always on hand to help and even checked in to see if we needed anything. If external commitments allowed, I for sure would have booked longer. Absolute gem of a find!

The house is spacious and cozy and stands at the very beautiful and quiet corner of the lake. It is equipped very well too. We particularly enjoyed kayak and hot tab. Janice's responded to my message very quickly and gave us very clear instructions too. Highly recommended.
