A sudeley castle cottage that sleeps 3 guests in 2 bedrooms

This is the second time we have stayed at the Cottages, and we love them! The location within the village and on the grounds of the Castle make it a memorable stay.

It's been a few years since we went to the Cotswolds so for my wifes birthday I thought I would treat her to weekend away. As we have a dog it needed to be pet friendly, and found this place at Sudeley Castle. It said when staying at this accommodation that you get free access to the castle grounds, it didn't say pets not allowed, until after I booked it I read about visiting Sudeley castle so this was disappointing. This was the only downside, Winchcombe was lovely and had a day I Cheltenham which was a great surprise as it was also lovely (never been before).

The cottage was pristine and well appointed. We appreciated the coffee and tea provided. Only disappointment was that we were not aware that the castle had closed for the season (we missed it by one day!) and that had factored greatly in our choice of that location.

A stunning location & a perfect little cottage. Peaceful & tranquil. Ideal base for exploring the Cotswolds.

We had an enjoyable stay as the location is perfect for walking to the castle and village. The accommodation was well stocked with everything you would need for a holiday. The bedrooms are quite basic and everything feels a little tired. Also a lot of cobwebs so felt like it needed a deep clean.

Beautiful cottage with very comfortable furnishings and equipped with everything you need. We particularly liked the spacious shower, bathroom goodies and fluffy white towels! Ceilings in main bedroom were a bit low for my tall husband but we managed. Tricky to drive down Castle Street when lots of cars are coming up eg around 4pm when Sudeley Castle car parks empties out! We used Silk Mill Road instead to avoid bottleneck.

Attending a weekend event in the grounds of the castle. Cottage location for this and for the village was absolutely spot on. Peaceful and beautiful.

Used this for the Fantasy Forest Festival - so convenient for Sudeley Castle. A home from home with everything that we needed.

Fantastic location, had most of the cottages on site booked for my son’s wedding. All excellent, very clean, easy to access, would highly recommend.

These cottages are very well placed for a trip to Winchcombe. We have used them before and find them clean with good facilities and easy parking. We had a small glitch with our TV that was handled very quickly and politely. Would highly recommend.

The property is within a small enclave of houses all picturesque. A nice size for a small holiday home, nicely laid out internally with decent furniture. It was well equipped and we didn't want for anything. My only comment would be that we have been to a couple of the properties and they are getting just a little tired and could do with some redecoration, but other than that fantastic. Walk to and free access to the castle is a bonus. The local town and area has all you need, 3 pubs for meals and lovely country scenery.

Nicely appointed apartment on the Sudeley Castle grounds. Perfect for exploring the Winchcombe area and taking a break from walking the Cotswold Way.

Condition of interior paintwork needed a freshen up, but overall a really relaxing stay. Close to the Castle and the shops. Extremely comfortable.

Well appointed and lovely accommodation located in a beautiful area. The house is clean and comfortable. The owners have provided lots of useful items in the house such as a torch and 3 different size scissors! We really enjoyed our stay. The only suggestion I would make is to put a larger frying pan in the kitchen as cooking Bacon and eggs for 3 in the one supplied was challenging.

'Charles 1' was a lovely place to stay with our dog. The apartment was very clean with a lovely large living, dining and kitchen area. The upstairs bedrooms were fine, clean and with plenty of bedding and the bathroom was roomy with a good shower. Need to just be aware of a couple of areas in the bedroom where you could bump your head, there was information about this, so it wasn't a problem. We liked the outside deck, with a large table for eating, high fencing at the sides, which gave some privacy, and a gate and small shared grassy area. A real bonus for us was easy access to the Sudeley Castle estate where we could walk the dog. We really enjoyed our stay at Sudeley and we hope to visit again in the future.

Great spot in a wonderful village. Highly recommend.

First time using Bolthole Retreats, will definitely book again. We had a slight hiccup when booking which was sorted out quickly by a friendly member of staff when we called to explain the problem. Our accommodation was comfortable, clean and well equipped. Good location and an easy, short walk into the centre of Winchcombe.

We booked the cottage for two nights in order to attend a wedding at the Castle. The property had everything that was required for a self catering stay. On arrival, some handy essentials such as teabags, coffee sachets, milk, biscuits and small pots of preserves were provided. The cottage was immaculately clean and chairs, sofa and beds were comfortable. The company renting the property ensured that comprehensive information was given via email prior to the arrival date and in two files placed at the property. A very professional setup.

This was an ideal place to stay in a perfect and scenic location. The property had everything you needed and a very well equipped kitchen. Within easy walk of local shops, pubs, restaurants and of course Sudeley Castle, which is a must to visit. A very lovely part of the country.

A great location for walking with many paths pretty much straight from the door. The Cotswold way to Hailes Abbey then on to Farmcote and so to pick up the Gloucestershire Way back was a delight with great views

The cottage was lovely and very close to sudeley castle which we visited twice. The steam train was a 20 minute walk away and we thoroughly enjoyed our time on the train. Lots of lovely walks from the cottage. The stairs in the cottage were very creaky which is to be expected in such an old property. The weather was a bit wet for our stay but we found plenty of things to do locally .

Lovely location and beautiful cottage but a lot of noise from other properties and aggressive dogs situated next to us. The cottage however was immaculate and had lots of lovely touches ie tea coffee milk

Really nicely presented cottage with everything we could need. Really enjoyed our stay and the town is lovely too.

We spent 3 days here and had a great time. Cottage is well equipped with new modern kitchen and all you need for a stay. Town is just a few minutes walk. Drive to Bath, Stonehenge, and Wales for day trip was simple. Sat on patio enjoying the quiet with drinks and snacks.

Quiet, comfortable and well equipped cottage. In the perfect location to visit the Cotswolds. It included a visit to Sudeley Castle.

we had a lovely time at the Charles I - it was very close to both the town and the castle, parking was perfect, the cottage was clean and comfortable. appreciated the private patio and easy access to walking trails. the staff were all very friendly.

Very good overall. Excellent kitchen and shower. Bed was very comfortable. Outside space very nice. The carpets are starting to show signs of wear. Couldn’t get the lights to work in the main bedroom to work but we managed with a lamp. Wi-Fi just about good enough. A more modern TV would be a nice edition . Maybe one of the smaller properties could be dog free for those with allergies. Fabulous location for Sudeley Castle and lovely walks.
