Pros:

The hosts were wonderful! We loved our room with the meadow view! Breakfast was tasty and you cannot beat the location- on the edge of town so it was quiet, yet literally a two minute walk into town. Loved it!

Pros:

Absolutely delightful!
Although it is described as a 'guest house' rather than a 'hotel', the room was better than in many hotels I have stayed in, and the ensuite bathroom was absolutely first rate -- with both a bath and a shower, and excellent water pressure.
All spotlessly clean, and with abundant natural light.
Breakfast was excellent and the cooked component was prepared for each guest individually.
Location could hardly be better! 'Off the beaten track' -- but the hustle and busy-ness of Bourton-on-the-Water is just a couple of minutes' walk away. (Maybe 90 seconds.)
Only breakfast is served on the property -- but this is not an issue given the abundance of restaurants and pubs just nearby.
The owner/managers, Wendy and Clive, have beautful auras of warmth and welcome and joy. They really 'make' the place what it is.
I can imagine spending a few days here in peaceful seclusion and isolation to finish my next book -- maybe I will!

Lovely stay in the Cotswolds
Pros:

We enjoyed our stay, and Clive and Wendy made us feel very welcome. Breakfast in the morning was excellent. The room was a little warm during an unusually hot June week, but we didn’t expect air-conditioning at our accommodations in this area. Overall, we loved our visit to this beautiful town!

We really enjoyed our stay at Meadow Rise. Bourton on the Water is a pretty place and conveniently located. Some lovely walks but you do need a car. Thanks Wendy and Clive for your hospitality

Pros:

The only thing that kept it from being super AMAZING is that we only had 2 days to spend there! The charm of the guest house, our room, the location and of course the hosts was unsurpassed. The breakfast totally satisfying to start the days journey. There was no TV but surprisingly we didn’t care because the phenomenal view from our room looked upon a serene field of sheep and stunning white horses. Impeccably clean and well maintained. A very short walk to the vibrant village with super shops and eateries. Of course the icing on the cake is Clive and Wendy, the amazing hosts who made us feel like we were home. We want to go back!

Pros:

It was such a wonderful experience staying at Meadow Rise! The host and hostess were so nice and friendly. It was like a sanctuary only a couple blocks off the main road. The views out our window of the meadow and the animals were spectacular. The place was spotless and beautifully decorated. We did not drive a car but there was plenty of parking. The homemade breakfast was out of this world- the best one we had while we were in England. I would definitely stay here again while visiting the beautiful Cotswolds!!
