Quiet Cowfair Cottage In Central Cotswolds With Lovely Garden

Cowfair is tucked away in a quiet position in the picturesque village of Chipping Campden. This comfortable, detached, Cotswold stone cottage is just 300 metres from the village centre and its many excellent restaurants, independent shops and boutiques. Close to the Cotswold Way footpath and within easy reach of Stratford-upon-Avon, Cheltenham and Oxford. Ideally situated for walking, racing, gardens (i.e. Hidcote), Stratford Theatre, antique shops.

The cottage consists of entrance hall, large kitchen with a range of fitted units, fridge/freezer, microwave, dishwaher and dining alcove. Utility room off the kitchen with washing machine, drying rack, and separate sink, cloakroom, W.C.

Cosy sitting room with electric log-effect wood burner and French windows opening out on to the terrace and private walled garden.

Upstairs there are two bedrooms - one king and one twin plus a family bathroom.

Outside is a lovely long garden, laid mostly to grass, bound by a dry stone wall. Secure for young children (note the wall is quite low to one end). Garden furniture plus and BBQ for the summer months. There is hard standing to park a car off road at the end of the garden, accessed via a track down the side of the property.

Great location in Chipping Compton
Nice cottage, comfortable beds, easy walk to High Street (take the shortcut down the lane at the hotel parking lot), clean, accurate description, nice to have a washer/dryer for our longer stay. Helpful information from Jemma and appreciated her flexibility on early check-in. Thanks!

Great location with off street parking.
Enjoyed the property overall. Great location, quiet with off-street parking. However the bed in the main bedroom is too soft as has been noted by other guests. Would have also been nice to see a few more essentials in the kitchen

Excellent cottage
We had a great stay at this cottage. It is spacious, and the garden was great for our kids to play in. It was well-equipped, and we were able to cook everything we needed. The washer/dryer was a nice touch and worked well. The private parking off the street was also very nice, as the street parking got quite full over the weekend. The GPS coordinates from the VRBO app are a little off, but we didn't have much trouble finding the cottage up the street. There are lots of things to do in the immediate area, as well as within a short drive. We would definitely stay here again.

Awesome place but a few clarifications: no dryer, no outdoor grill (we bought 6 steaks) & it's a 1.5 bath.1st floor toilet doesn't flush like the 2nd floor one. Washed clothes & had to line dry outside on patio watching for rain. Very stressful to see a utility usage app in the laundry room. Put mop & bucket outside until we left because it made laundry room smell moldy. Bed, upstairs bath, shower were lovely. Living room lovely, kitchen super. Super nice owner. Lovely home, lovely patio and yard.

Cowfair for us
We enjoyed a week at this charming cottage in Chipping Campden, which in our view is one of the real jewels of the Cotswolds. It is very well located for walking into town and as a base for driving around the region. We found the stairs to be steep for oldies and the TV is not “smart” if caught with rainy weather. Everything else worked just fine.

Wonderful quaint cottage in a great location
The cottage is well equipped with all the basics you would want in a vacation rental. The beds were comfy. We especially appreciated the lovely walled back garden for breakfast and dinner. There were some toys and books for our 5 year old. Parking was easily available and safe. It was just a short walk to the shops in Chipping Campden, yet felt private and relaxing.

WOnderful location, charming cottage
The cottage was probably the nicest place we've stayed. We had breakfast in the private, walled garden every day, enjoying the flowers and the weather--OK, to be honest, others probably shouldn't expect a week of no rain, but we loved ours! It was comfortable, and we enjoyed the 10 minute walk to town for meals. We hiked to Dover hill, if you can call a 2 mile excursion a hike. And we enjoyed yours of the local gardens. Stay hEre!

Great place to stay for Cheltenham Festival
All good, but a couple of points to note: Stairs in cottage are fairly steep, will not suit everyone. Whilst the cottage is well placed, there are no alleys to cut through to the High St. This means a fairly long walk to the pub/shops...this will not suit everyone. Parking in Chipping Campden is horrendous, so walking is important. Good parking in layby outside cottage but...the spaces are in hot demand during the day! The neighbours park right outside the cottage bay window...constantly. The flush in downstairs toilet is not great... If you want to do some more advanced cooking, the kitchen lacks work surfaces, you will need to use the table...

Look no further
When I began my search for accommodations in Chipping Campden this was the first place that showed up. After reading the description and looking at the pictures I thought why would I look for anything else? This place seems perfect. So I booked it and I’m glad I did because it exceeded my expectations, which were already high. A great two story cottage with a lovely back yard on a quiet back street that’s a pleasant 5-minute stroll from the high street. It’s also adjacent to the terminus of The Cotswold Way offering a country hike of any length you choose. If you’re driving you can park for free on the street or even pull carefully into the back yard if you like.

Cowfair - A tale of three mattresses
My wife and I liked staying there. It was clean, convenient and quiet. Nicely laid out with a lot of space for two people. The one thing we really needed, which was lacking, was firm, supportive bed bases and mattresses for our backs. My wife ended up sleeping on the floor because none of the beds (both the singles and double) were comfortable. It was clear all the beds have had considerable use and seen better days.

Half Term get away
We had a fabulous 4 nights staying at this lovely cottage in the Cotswolds. Jemma was incredibly helpful and responsive throughout the process and the cottage was exactly as per the listing. I can highly recommend the cottage and the area - so much to do and lots of fab walks & pubs! The only thing I’d add, is that booking into anywhere for dinner is essential at least a day in advance. Possibly a school holiday situation but definitely worth doing. Overall it was a brilliant half term holiday!

Perfect peaceful short break
We enjoyed our stay at the property - it was accurately described and well equipped and had everything we needed for our short break. The setting is of course delightful being in Chipping Campden and the backends location was so peaceful yet so close to the town. We would highly recommend as suitable for couples, friends and families.
