Wonderful place to stay

We stayed here as a base for the Fantasy Forest Festival. Really convenient and comfortable like a home from home.

Good quiet location near to amenities

The accommodation was adequate for the short stay I was there. The kitchen is well equipped. Overall it was clean but there were cobwebs around the beams and windows. It did feel a bit shabby and ready for a lick of paint and a furniture upgrade. The bathroom has seen better days. The wi-Fi was terrible and I could barely get emails. There was no chance of working or streaming any films. The location is very good - quiet and peaceful but within walking distance to Winchcombe.

Quaint

Quaint little accommodation within easy walking distance from both the village and Sudeley Castle. We also found that when showing the key fob, we got free access around Sudeley Castle which saved quite a few pounds. Such an excellent place to visit - it took us 3 different days and we are sure there will still be more to see!!

Sudeley castle cottages

This was our 3rd visit to sudeley castle cottages and it didn't disappoint. The cottage was furnished with everything needed super clean and comfortable. On arrival there is tea, coffee, milk and biscuits just perfect after a long journey. The area with its beautiful green fields for great walks on the doorstep and only a 5 minute walk into the town with local shops and boutique's, cafes and restaurants and local pubs make for a excellent break away. Can not wait to book again for next year.

Perfect location to explore Cotswold

We loved the location, how clean the place was and equipment in the kitchen. Free access to Sudeley Castle was definitely a bonus. Very slow Internet connection was bit of a surprise. I suspect that it might be a simple configuration issue and easy to fix.

A beautiful cottage, stunning surroundings and a cosy atmosphere in the village

The cottage was absolutely lovely, cute but also very comfy. Further everything you needed was provided. We felt very lucky to stay in this cosy perfect cottage and would always come back to it.Being able to visit Sudeley Castle during our stay without paying was a nice surprise. The pubs in Winchcombe are very open to visitors so that we had several chatty evenings. We recommend the White Heart Inn for its food, its ales and of course for its top atmosphere.

Great place to visit the Cotswolds

+ Lovely cottage and surroundings, Nicely done up with comfy furniture, books and paintings, Many kitchen facilities, Free entrance to Sudeley Castle (well worth seeing), Wide parking space, Winchcombe is a lovely place as well and has many to do and see nearby. (-) Would be nice to have different bins in the kitchen to sort the garbage, since there are different containers outside. And coming from Sudeley Hill it is likely to oversee the signpost of the site.

A nice property in an ideal location

An ideal property for a couple or a small family. It was very clean and had all amenities especially in the kitchen. It is an old building and that constrains the layout. So people need to be aware that the bedrooms are both small, with little headroom and little storage space. But that is also part of the charm. It is very close to shops and pubs etc. but far enough away to be quiet. Parking was easy. Sudeley castle is a must see, but there are plenty of other things to do in the area. We did some lovely walks straight from the front door.

Beautiful cottage in a wonderful location

The cottage is extremely comfortable, beautifully furnished and VERY fully equipped. Such a great place to stay in the centre of Winchcombe and with free access to the wonderful Sudeley Castle. Lovely pubs, cafes, delis etc. in short walking distance. We recommend 'The Corner Cupboard' and 'William's' in particular. It's worth checking in advance what's open on different days of the week, though, especially out of summer season. Sudeley castle is amazing. It's really worth timing your visit to hear the talk, as it gives you so much background with which to explore the castle. Take a picnic!

Beautiful Cotswold Cottage

Beautiful Cotswold cottage in an amazing location. Exactly right for our visit 'back home'. We hardly needed to use the car. It's location on the edge of Winchcombe meant walking into town and into Sudeley Castle was easy, to say nothing of countryside walks. If you're looking for a genuinely peaceful location in a gorgeous setting look no further. The only slight niggle was the toaster didn't work - it blew the electrics each time we tried. I reported it but it wasn't changed for the following day. We used the oven grill instead so no biggie.

Lovely Property in a Quiet and Pleasant Location

Prince Rupert Cottage turned out to be the ideal choice for a long weekend in the heart of the Cotswold countryside. Just a short stroll from Winchcombe's charming high street and town centre, the property is ideally located for exploring the local area. There are some lovely walking routes nearby, including the public footpaths surrounding the house and grounds of the Sudeley estate (to which guests staying at the cottage are granted free admission). Winchcombe is home to some very nice shops and eateries, and there is also the regular 'W' bus service to Cheltenham which departs from the war memorial bus stop just a short distance from the top of Castle Street. It's perhaps worth bearing in mind that the walk up to the high street involves scaling a bit of a hill towards the upper end of Castle Street. The cottage itself is also accessed via a series of ascending and descending stone steps, as well as a number of additional wooden steps which lead up to the entrance of the property. The cottage is very clean, comfortable and well equipped. Given the age of the property, some of the upstairs floorboards tend to be rather creaky in places, and the low ceiling beams mean having to be a bit careful when accessing one or two of the nooks and crannies in the bedrooms. Unfortunately, the pine chest of drawers in the single room was damaged to the point of being unusable at the time of our visit (October 2023) - an issue which can hopefully soon be resolved. Overall, a very pleasant and relaxing place to stay.

Extremely comfortable stay with access to Sudely Castle.

Lovely cottage, well laid out with well equipped kitchen. Footpath to Sudely Castle was ideal - a visit to the castle was the purpose of our visit and it did not disappoint.

A Cotswold Castle

I was a volunteer for a couple of days on an archaeological dig at Sudeley Castle so needed somewhere convenient to stay. The Prince Rupert was ideal! It was spacious, well-appointed, quiet and comfortable and I thoroughly enjoyed my stay. It was only a short walk over the fields to Sudeley Castle and also extremely close to the amenities on offer in the delightful town of Winchcombe. The cottage was only a stone's throw from a network of footpaths including the Cotswold Way, so I enjoyed a wander up to the atmospheric Belas Knap Long Barrow on the Monday. A relaxing stay at Prince Rupert is highly recommended!

Super Location for Winchcombe and Walking

Winchcombe itself is just a short walk away from the cottage, so it made a perfect base for our short break, especially with easy parking available. Many 'day out' destinations were close by, but Sudeley Castle (entry included in the cost), GWSR steam railway and Winchcombe's lovely walks were all accessible on foot. The cottage's kitchen was excellent and very well equipped and the bed comfortable, but the bathroom and shower, paint finishes and table tops were a little worn and in need of some TLC. Overall, an enjoyable stay in an excellent location.

Excellent accommodation in a perfect location

Excellent accommodation in a perfect location, within easy walking distance of the fascinating and historic Sudeley Castle and the town of Winchcombe with great character, good pubs and a fine selection of eating. Walkers are welcome in Winchcombe and there are many excellent, scenic walks directly from the accommodation. The staff were easy to contact, courteous and very helpful. There was ample, safe parking.

Feedback

Great location,kitchen,dining area. Needs higher back settee and chair that are supportive. Sofa had lost any support. Shower hose and end needs replacing. Rail for stairs up to property needs to be continuous. Great to be close to good places to eat in Winchcombe and to many footpaths and to have access to Sudeley Castle. Would be interesting to have more history re building.

A very nice stay

I stayed for 2 nights at the Prince Rupert cottage. The 3D tour on the website that I used before I made my booking was a true reflection of the cottage and helpful in my decision to book the cottage. I had no problems locating the cottage and accessing the property. The cottage is a short walk from Sudeley castle and restaurants. There is also a small supermarket nearby however a pint of milk and coffee/tea are provided upon arrival. It is in a peaceful quiet area. I was very happy with my stay and I am already looking at booking again for next year.
