The Reading Room is a beautiful, warm and bright cottage. There is something very special about it. I had a wonderful, solo, week long stay during January and just loved my time here. Jane and Bob are great hosts and they have thoughtfully provided everything guests could need. Unlike many self-catering cottages that are managed and serviced by other agencies where you have no connection with the owners, the owners of The Reading Room are available and their personal connection to the property shows, from the generous starter pack to their excellent and informative communication before and during the stay. Stay Cotswold also provided excellent customer service. Other plusses, a lovely garden with plenty of seating, very comfortable beds, and a great, quiet location.
Visit highlights included dinner at the Carpenter's Arms Pub (short walk) for delicious food and friendly service, the short walk to Burford shops and longer walks to The Burford Garden Company and the village of Swinbrook. Also, a 4 hour driving tour of the Cotswolds with Rural Rides. And most of all the kindness of the hosts! I will return.
