The Stables, Great Tew

Such a lovely property, beautifully restored with an interesting history! We loved the garden and hot tub, there was plenty of space for the three of us and all the amenities we needed. Great location for exploring the local area, lots of lovely pubs nearby. Would stay again! Thank you.

My friends and I stayed for our annual gettogether for two nights and had a lovely time. The hot tub was a bonus and a welcome extra after a day exploring Oxford. We would have liked an atmospheric lamp in the living room and perhaps a bit more room around the kitchen island to eat, but apart from that it was the perfect base and property to experience rural Oxfordshire.

Comfortable stay and a lovely location for a relaxing break. The hot tub was nice and bed are comfortable. Dogs enjoyed the stay too.

We had a wonderful stay at the Stables. From the bottle of bubbly on arrival to the toastie hot tub, we thoroughly enjoyed our stay. Great location and central to most activities that we had planned. Hope to come back again!

Lovely property, cute cottage feel to it. Was clean & tidy & had most things you require to make the stay comfortable. We took our one year old daughter, so appreciated the cot stair gate The only thing I would say is the shower really could do with a shower mat to stop the slipping mostly because of my daughter trying to shower a one year old with no slip mat proved difficult.

Really well equipped, comfortable property. Loved the hot tub. Property is in an excellent location, very quiet but close to many beautiful places. We would definitely recommend The Stables to friends and family and would love to return.

Only slight markdown on the listing, was that it would have been helpful to know the comprehensive rules with dogs in the property. It's listed as dog friendly, but when we got there, it was written to say dogs not allowed on furniture or upstairs at all, which was challenging, as our dog just loves to roam at home! Other than that, I cannot fault The Stables. The cottage was lovely So welcoming and extremely well equipped! Location is nice and quiet, not far away from places to walk, pubs and nearby attractions and places of interest. The only downside is you have to drive to go anywhere, as The Meetings are quite remote and on a busy road, so with young children and dogs, it is a point to mention.

We had a great stay. Beds and living room suite very comfortable. Had a small problem that was dealt with immediately, which was appreciated. Great base from which to visit some of the pretty Cotswold villages.

Excellent holiday accommodation, Fantastic location

The stables was absolutely awesome and we enjoyed our stay very much. The facilities and the hot tub were fantastic.very peaceful and very high standards all over the cottage . We would love to stay again at Christmas

Absolutely beautiful cottage, so clean in fabulous location will definitely go back. Ideal with your dog great fenced garden.

Would have preffered a king size bed.

We had a fantastic holiday at The Stables, the location is perfect , cottage is spotless and has everything you need for a relaxing holiday. The enclosed garden is lovely and perfect for the dogs. A real home from home and Julie & Jo make you feel very welcome, I would definitely recommend this property

One of the best cottages we have stayed in. Super location for exploring a new area. Excellent walks from the cottage door. Great for dogs. The hot tub was a good size and a nice treat after our long walks. The tea and coffee etc was very handy. Lots to do in the area. If going with dogs I recommend The Cotswolds Wildlife Park.

Beautiful property, spotless clean, the kitchen items and utensils was very thought out, everything was available that you would need to cook with. Log burner was great for when it dropped cooler in the evening, and the hot tub was lovely. Lovely looked after cottage, we will be returning.

We had a great stay at The Stables. It is remote so perfect if you want to get away from it all. The hot tub is lovely! It was clean and warm upon arrival. The property itself was very clean, kudos to the people who give it a thorough clean. When we arrived, we were greeted with Prosecco and goodies which was lovely! The Christmas tree was such a lovely touch too, set the festive scene. The kitchen is well equipped, you just need to explore it to find what you need. Everything is modern and works well. I would say there needs to be more drinking glasses though, there were only 2 in the property. The heating is new and works quickly so we were warm all the time. The shower is warm and powerful, there isnt a bath so if youve got kids, be mindful of this. There were only 2 towels so we did have to do a wash, it may be worth proving a few more especially for those using the hot tub. We used the main bedroom and Ive got to say, we didnt sleep too well. The bed is too small. Its a double but you could very easily get fit a king size in there. My partner isnt the smallest so we felt so cramped. The bed frame is also really squeaky so if youre a fidgeter like me, you do risk waking the other person up. The mattress itself was good. The pillows were thin so we did have to take more from the spare bedroom. I really do think upgrading to a king size would make the stay much more enjoyable, Im sure most guests wouldnt mind paying a bit extra for a larger bed. As a side note, the hairdryer doesnt work properly, it cuts out after a few seconds. Overall we had a lovely stay and it was wonderful being able to take our dog. The property is modern and stylish. We did call the hosts once to work out the fire and they were friendly and quick to answer. Thank you for a lovely week

Lovely cottage in a great location for exploring Cotswold. King size bed would have been better. Heating system that is in the main bedroom in its own cupboard woke us in the night. Down stairs wc had an horrendous smell, which we contacted the owner about my husband is a plumber so able to guide owner what the issue was They got a plumber out the next day. We still feel issue hasn't been rectified as there is still a smell, not as bad but still awful. Shower also needs looking at, the water pressure is poor so not a great shower. We did clean limescale off to get the head to run a bit better. Also when using any facilities upstairs the water noise is rather loud throughout. Plumbing really needs looking at. Garden could do with a storage box for the furniture cushions. We were so lucky with the weather that it would have been nice to be able to sit on the furniture, however due to cushions being wet, this was not possible. It would be easy enough for holiday makers to put cushions away when not using furniture. However we had a lovely stay. Thank you.

Nice and tidy. Good location. Kitchenware needs a bit of a refresh.

Second visit to this cottage. Ideal for visiting Oxford and Blenheim Palace, this was the idea of trip and I bought my 2 friends to area for first time. The hot tub was a lovely wind down from all our walking and visiting. Cottage just right and relaxing and we enjoyed watching baby house martins being fed and leaving their nests.

Well equipped, very clean and comfortable. Great location and extremely pleasant hosts.

Had a really lovely stay with our 2 children and our dog. The Stables was lovely inside and out. It was clean and comfortable the perfect base for seeing The Cotswolds and surrounding areas. Loved the hot tub and also the little welcome bottle of wine was a real treat!!

We had a really enjoyable stay! The cottage is perfect for what we wanted and had all the facilities we needed. The hot tub was great and it was near to local attractions such as Diddly squat farm and Bourtononthe water. I would definitely be interested in visiting again!

Everything was fine and as expected. The only downside was that the hottub was not hot enough to use when we arrived. It took hours to get anywhere near enough lukewarm to use on the day of arrival.

Absolutely beautiful cottage in a beautiful location. The cottage was clean, cosy and comfortable with a lovely garden for the dog. The hot tub was an amazing bonus! Everything was perfect with our stay and we would love to return one day.

Lovely cottage, great location. Will definitely be back!

Cottage is fantastic, clean and comfy beds. And lovely hot tub too, although the jets only appeared to be working on the far side, we just kept swapping around! Oh, and a lovely welcome gift upon arrival. Situated in a very peaceful location, near so many quaint villages and historical towns. Perfect middle point for me and my 2 friends to meet up from different parts of the country. The owners, I felt, were not so professional. We were a towel missing, rectified upon notification to owners with a rather small bath towel. I feel the parking allocation should be signposted as to who should park where for the 3 properties available. Was asked to move one of the cars as there were 3 in our party, but next door only had 1 car. So my car could have been left on the car park by the bin shelter. Told to park on an overspill plot of muddy grassland. Where when I attempted to move it it got stuck due to rainfall, I eventually managed!

We had such a lovely weekend at The Stables! Everything was spotless and so cozy, it was the perfect place for a relaxing weekend away, thank you!

The cottage was lovely and we would happily come again. The hot tub water seemed to need a little attention, but nothing major. Overall a great stay and we had a lovely break

We had a lovely stay at the stables. The cottage was cosy and had everything we needed for a familygirls weekend with my sisters collies. We enjoyed the hot tub and spent most of the weekend chilling, we even booked a massage! We would like to go back again and do more exploring of the local area. Dog owners just note that the garden fence is not very high if you are taking a dog that likes to jumpescape.

A fabulous property. Very clean, warm, comfortable and in a quiet area. Added bonus of a hot tub. It had everything we needed and we would most definitely stay again. Great communication with the hosts.

A very well equipped cottage that was perfect for our family Christmas. The village and surrounding area is lovely, quintessentially English. We enjoyed the hot tub on Christmas and Boxing Day. The cottage was cosy and warm and the owners came to see us early on to check we had settled in ok. They told us about the Boxing Day hunt gathering in Chipping Norton which was fun to see. We would definitely recommend the cottage and area and hope to go back.

Cottage was very comfortable and relaxing just what was required. The hot tub was a lovely added addition.

The fences around the garden are only waist heigh making it very overlooked by both the other guests and the owners whos house is at the bottom of the garden, also can see right into the owners bedroom from the top floor. Dog owners be warned although advertised as dog friendly on arrival the rules are stated that dogs cant go upstairs or on the furniture so I wouldnt class this as dog friendly. The garden is secure though so was safe. Hot tub was nice although you are looking out into the car park as people arrive which was weird. The cottage itself was lovely and clean and kitchen well equipped although missing a little bottle of milk and tea bags for when you arrive but did have a bottle of wine waiting. All in all we enjoyed our stay and the location is fab for exploring all the villages of the Cotswold and close to Bicester village for shopping!

Such a lovely cottage, everything was clean, neat and it was the perfect getaway for us. We will definitely be keen to come back again.

Had a wonderful stay! Cottage is beautiful and very clean. Great to have an enclosed garden and hot tub. Such a quiet setting and lots of lovely countryside to explore!

Can't fault the cottage as it is finished to a very high standard and cleaned to a very high standard also. Only thing I would say is that blackout curtains could be considered but this did not bother us as we weren't there to sleep in. Cottage is overlooked by owners property but nothing a couple of tall plants couldn't sort out in the garden. This did not particularly bother us either as we were only there for a few days. The locals seem to hare down the country lane which runs alongside the property at quite a pace so maybe the property could be gated at the main entrance just in case children or dogs venture out of the gated gardens. Apart from that fab property and location. The local pub is a real gem. Falkland Arms which is 30mins on foot or a couple of mins in car. Great bolt hole to venture out to the rest of the cotswolds. Happy customers!!

From the moment we stepped through the front door, it felt like a home from home, clean, very dog friendly with the added bonus of a hot tub. Beautiful location.
