Perfect
Pros:

Clean comfortable lovely towels and bedding. Water tea and coffee provided . Great location centre of Stow. We were attending a wedding at nearby Hyde House and it was perfect for an overnight stay. Good value for money for Stow.

Cons:

Property all good. Response to property messages was a little slow.

Many bugs/insects in the room (see photos)
Pros:

Location is very good.

Cons:

There was a severe bug infection (see photos). We saw many in the bath first, but then also some in the room itself. The room is small, which is understandable because of the nice location.

But when you pay 140 euros per night, you expect at least a clean room. I wouldn't recommend this place to anyone except for if you don't mind sleeping around insects.

I am writing this review now one month later since I wanted the owner of the house to respond. Sadly I didn't hear anything from them.

A lovely stay, great location!
Pros:

Great location, very clean and good facilities. Only about a two minute walk away from the square, once you find the little alleyway!!

Cons:

The parking was sometimes difficult, as the village is really busy and popular, but always managed to get in somewhere!!

Poor experience at a fabulous destination
Pros:

Location was excellent for easy access to the centre of Stow.

Cons:

It was a very hot weekend & the fan in the room was a computer fan that was 6 inches in diameter & provided no respite against the heat in the top floor room.
The shower connection over the bath was only hand held & the taps were under an eaves so by the time they reached the other end of the bath were suitable only for hair washing.
The bath had an infestation of wood lice so was unusable.
We left early morning after the first night feeling very disappointed.

We had a lovely stay in Stow better facilities would have been very welcome
Pros:

Great location room looked lovely on first impression

Cons:

The shower head needed descaling- the towels were frayed and very hard - new ones are definitely required
Not z very good selection of coffee only enough for 1 cup each of coffee & staying 2 nights also very minimal cookies again 2 packets containing 2 cookies is all supplied as goodies a little disappointing considering the price

Für 180€ die Nacht , definitiv zu teuer.
Pros:

Das Zimmer war gemütlich, die Lage direkt im Zentrum . Sehr gute Restaurants im Umfeld , sehr hübsche kleine Stadt.

Cons:

Es war extrem laut, da der gesamte Verkehr direkt unter unserem Fenster vorbei fuhr. Das Fenster musste man zu lassen. Das Bad war ohne Dusche und die Badewanne im Zimmer. Sah nett aus aber nicht praktikabel . Es gab keinen Duschschlauch. Kein Personal , man bekam einen Code fürs Haus und Zimmer .
