We stayed at Pear Tree Cottage for three weeks in September. From the first day, we fell in love with the cottage, with its comfortable places to settle in on rainy days to the beautiful garden (unfortunately, not enjoyed a lot due to unfriendly weather). The beds were extremely comfortable and house guests loved the second floor "apartment." The kitchen was very well equipped, important when staying for three weeks, and were greeted by coffee, tea and milk. (Suggestion: instructions for appliances would help as we live in the U.S. and needed assistance operating the equipment.) We appreciated the wide range of reading material, local art work, antique furniture and fascinating ornaments, especially "pear" symbols everywhere. The location is terrific, a five-minute walk to the town center, and The Smiths restaurant, just round the corner, became a favorite. We did not have a car, fortunate as there was literally no parking on the street due to others' permanently occupying the space, but visitors faced a challenge. Overall this was one of our most successful stays in the Cotswolds.
