Fabulous....simply a dream stay!!!!
Staying at the "nook", was more than a treat....it was a dream!!! The hosts were marvelous. They were the consummate hosts. They were, responsive, fun, open and friendly. Probably THE BEST vrbo experience ever! The accomodations were charming, plenty of space to feel at home, parking right outside the door, tons of maps of the area, recommendations for meals and activities, to suite our tastes. It was simply magnificent...simply magnificent! From the second that we arrived to the second we departed.

Great Weekend in “The Nook”
Beautifully appointed annex, adjacent to owners’ property. Room had everything you needed for a lovely few days away. Our hosts had put in many thoughtful touches and the homemade cake was lovely, a bottle of wine and Nespresso coffee machine to name a few. Communication was great and hosts very friendly. Cleanliness superb. Situated a short drive from Oxford and the Cotswolds.

Ideal property for a get away from it all, with plenty to do close by. The property definitely had the wow factor even before you walk through the door with the beautiful garden. Everything in the property was beautifully done with all the comforts of home and some luxury extras (wine, home made cakes and a coffee machine). The host was lovely and stopped in for a quick chat and offer of anything else we may have needed. machine

This is such a delightful property and more spacious than the photos lead you to believe. Vikki is a great communicator with nothing being too much trouble. She found out about all the bus routes for us, recommended places to eat and supplied us with wine, milk and delicious homemade cakes. We cannot recommend it highly enough. Thank you so much Vikki

Birthday get away
The Nook, was beautiful inside and out, it was absolutely spotless, we were welcomed with towels on the bed, birthday messages on the mirror, wine and milk in the fridge and some cupcakes on the side. Communication with Vikki was perfect, she made sure we were comfortable and was happy answering any questions we asked. She made the effort to speak to us on arrival and when we were leaving, it was so natural, easy and comfortable. Lovely stay and get away, would definitely recommend.

A rare find
This property was one of the cleanest I've ever seen--and I'm hard to please on cleanliness! There were also lots of thoughtful little touches provided, such as coffee pods, fresh milk, and a bottle of wine. The bed was very comfortable. Also, nearby spots such as Old Minster and Burford are well worth a visit and offer good dining. This rental space is well organized, which is important because it IS small--both the overall space and the shower, for example. However, as long as the traveler can anticipate that, he or she will enjoy the stay. One suggestion: I would have preferred hooks rather than knobs in the bathroom for the towels, or, even better, a couple of long towel rods if a spot can be chosen. Knobs allow towels to slide off too easily, and a rod would let the towel actually dry after use, which is difficult in a rather humid area. Vikki and Simon were friendly hosts, clearly eager to give any assistance they could. The Nook is a good spot!

Delightful accommodation for a short stay. The owners are lovely and made us very welcome with a homemade cake and bottle of wine and milk in the fridge. There's only a microwave so not really self catering, but perfectly adequate for a few days stay and there are several good pubs and a Spar shop nearby. Well situated for visiting the beautiful Cotswold towns and villages.

The Nook was absolutely fantastic! Great location for everything.
We had such a lovely time. We managed to cram in so much for a short weekend stay. Broughton on water to see model village, woodstock for Bhlenim palace, bladon to see churchills grave, oxford to visit the oldest pub called The Bear Inn, Minster Lovell for its historical ruins and local pubs and finally Cotswolds Wild Life Park on the way home just 10 mins drive from The Nook. Everything is so close and walkable or just a short drive away. Bus stop right outside the house too. Vikki was such a lovely host. Gave us a warm welcome. Baked a beautiful cake and even put a bottle of wine in the fridge. She gave us all helpful tips and advice on where to visit. We will deffinatley be back to stay. Pictures dont do the property justice. If your looking to explore the costwolds with everything on your door step then id strongly recommend coming here to stay. Just perfect!

Amazing..more than excellent!
We absolutely loved our 3 night stay at The Nook. The whole booking process was very smooth & stress free. Vikki our Host kept in touch via email with directions, key code, and even which wine we preferred, red or white. Together with our wine was a homemade cake, which was delicious and a lovely touch. Parking was right outside the front. The accommodation is an annexe to the Host's house. Spotlessly clean and very modern with some lovely quirky features. A very comfortable king size bed, plus a sofa bed/sofa. a large tv, tea and coffee making facilities, toaster, microwave and the kitchen area was very well stocked with everything needed. The bathroom was stunning with a very modern shower, with fluffy towels and robes provided. The whole accommodation was equipped with top quality fixtures and fittings, and excellent attention to detail. Vikki the Host, in the short time we had known her, has become a friend and nothing was too much trouble and ensured we had the best stay possible. We visited the 2 pubs in Minister Lovell, just a short 15 minute walk away and had a lovely meal in the Horse and Radish. The Nook is well situated as a base to explore Oxfordshire and the Cotswolds, where we can recommend the bus/walk tour in Oxford and also Sunday lunch in the Bear, the oldest pub in Oxford. also the idyllic village of Burford with breakfast at the Priory. Thank you Vikki, for your hospitality with all the little touches which was greatly appreciated. Hope to see you again soon.

Boutique Retreat - Perfect for Exploring the Cotswolds Villages
The Nook is the ideal home-away-from-home for couples looking to explore the nearby Cotswolds villages or Oxford. Located 10 minutes drive from Burford, The Nook is also within half an hour's drive of popular villages Stow-on-the-Wold, Bibury, Bourton-on-the-Water and The Slaughters - We were comfortably able to visit all of these places on our Cotswolds Bucket List during our two-night stay (despite the hit and miss rain showers!) The Nook/annex itself is beautifully decorated in a boutique apartment-style, with inspiring decor and individual touches that bring a home-away-from-home feeling to it. We even enquired about the paint colour and other aspects for our own home! The Nook had everything we needed for a two-night stay, including on-site parking, a hairdryer, toaster, microwave, kettle, fridge/freezer, smart tv, full-length mirror - with a plug that just about reached to enable me to straighten my hair in front of the mirror. The shower is quite an experience, with colour-changing lights, jets and bluetooth abilities to enable guests to sing along to their favourite tunes. Though it's worth noting the annex adjoins the main house, so might want to ensure the voice is in check before belting out the ballads in the shower! Vikki and Simon are fabulous hosts, we had a bottle of wine and swiss roll waiting for us when we arrived (plus chocolates and milk too!), which was a lovely surprise! A truly lovely family - we had a nice time chatting with them (Alice too). We had no issues accessing the key via the lockbox outside the property and, whilst the annex has a shared path to the main house, we were able to come and go as we please. Communication was great - Prior to our stay, Vikki contacted us to ask whether we drink red or white wine, as well as provided us with ample information for places to eat with outdoor dining and takeaways nearby. We certainly didn't miss having a cooker as we had plenty of options - We discovered two pubs in Minster Lovell, within walking distance of The Nook. We thoroughly enjoyed a Sunday roast walk-in at The White Hart (after being unsuccessful at getting a table at The Horse & Radish). We had a great sleep and a thoroughly enjoyable stay at The Nook - many thanks to Vikki & Simon for a wonderful stay. Highly recommended for those looking for an affordable boutique retreat in The Cotwolds.

We had a lovely weekend at the Nook. The property was comfortable and tastefully decorated. Vikki, the landlord, had thought of everything. She provided us with a warm welcome, including delicious brownies and strawberries and a bottle of wine. She was attentive to all our needs. The property is well located for Burford, and very close to the magnificent ruins of Minster Hall. A lovely place for a weekend getaway.
