Lovely stay, a great location and a clean warm , welcoming house . A small point, the back door did not open to access the bin and there were no clear instructions for discarding rubbish, which I think could be made clearer for future guests . Thank you

Short Break in the Cotswolds
The Cottage is in a quintessential village, perhaps more remembered for being the location of the filming of Father Brown, than it’s history as one of the many mill villages.
Streets are very narrow, parking is difficult to find and there are no street numbers! The Red Lion Cottage is a wonderfully converted building that makes the best use of the space. The beds are comfortable and the kitchen fully stocked. It would have been nice to have a Nespresso machine, something other Bolthole Retreat locations have.
There are many amazing country walks directly from the Village, which is also very central for touring other unique Cotswolds villages. The local pub is well run by Sri Lankans serving British and ethnic dishes. There is also a very good Village Hub coffee shop serving coffee and food all day.

Lovely cottage in a gorgeous village
Our second visit to Red Lion Cottage was as good as the first, nearly 10 years ago. It is very well equipped, charmingly decorated and very comfortable. We did find it harder to park this time but always managed to find a space. Blockley is a gorgeous village, extremely quiet and set in beautiful countryside. The village shop and cafe are excellent.

Our first cottage stay
We always stay at hotels (usually 5*) but we decided to try a cottage for part of our holiday. Red Lion Cottage in Blockley was very sweet and better than expected. It was clean and had most everything we needed. I will look for a cottage with a washer and dryer next time but for 4 nights, this was perfect. Blockley was a great little village with a lot of charm. Bolthole was good and professional.

Relaxing week in the Cotswolds.
Red Lion Cottage is in a great little village and very convenient as a base for touring the Cotswolds.
Cottage is well equipped and clean.
Bed was comfortable and shower was good pressure and WiFi was working well.
Only gripe is the miniature ironing board, why do so many rentals have this instead of a full size proper board? However that’s only a minor issue, otherwise the cottage is well suited for a holiday break.
Locals were very friendly and helpful.
Would certainly return again.

Magical stay over Christmas
We thoroughly enjoyed our stay at Red Lion Cottage. Lovely cottage in a quaint Cotswold village. A warning that it is not really suitable for those who struggle with stairs as the bedrooms are upstairs with a narrow winding staircase although there are well placed handles to assist. The second bedroom is not as large as the main bedroom and the one side of the double bed is against the wall. The bath is upstairs although the shower is downstairs. We loved our stay snd would certainly do it again

Great village and good value for money in Blockley
Nicely situated cottage in the centre of Blockley - the perfect village if you want to be away from the crowds. Cottage was comfortable and had most amenities we needed. We arrived in the early evening in winter (pitch black), however, so the cottage was quite difficult to find as no lights were turned on for us to read the name outside (I’d recommend Bolthole retreats doing this for your guests in future). Housekeeper’s number was provided but didn’t answer or call us back to help find it. Outside of that small detail, it was a good stay.

Great Weekend STay
Great Weekend stay in this lovely cottage in a great village. No issues at all. I will (like others) mention that the tv did not work however we do not go away to watch tv. There's plenty of street parking even if a bit tight in places however the road is a dead end so no issues with through traffic.

Disappointing
Cottage was convenient for our needs.
Misrepresented in listing: main bedroom bed is a DOUBLE when advertised as a king sized bed.
Poor bedlinen and towels.
Would have expected more at the charge rate. Disappointing.

Nice cottage
Lovely village but parking impossible! Two pubs neither food for food but nearest nice for drink. Beds ok but a bit soft, biggest not a king size as advertised, second bedroom tiny no proper hanging space.
Cottage nicely furnished but very difficult stairs with grab rails and poor outside space, badly maintained with very steep stairs up to it.
Not value for money as too many things were a problem or missing , e.g. half size kettle, one cup caffe tier, mini freezer compartment iced up . Would not recommend booking with Bolthole Retreats as very unhelpful.
