An ideal and wonderfully situated property for a pre Christmas gathering of long standing friends.

Lulham was absolutely ideal for our annual pre-Christmas get together of long established friends. The location was chosen because of the festive and picturesque nature of the Cotswolds villages and the close proximity to Blenheim Palace. The house was clean, spacious, well appointed, warm and welcoming and parking was more than adequate. The beautiful village of Bourton on the Water was a comfortable stroll away. The only minor downsides were a lack of wardrobe/hanging space in some of the bedrooms and a couple of the beds were a little rickety and uncomfortable. The help and responsiveness of the property manager was exemplary.

Excellent Family Gathering Venue

A lovely clean home from home, with plenty of space for 9 adults and 2 children! The bedrooms were all beautifully presented and the kitchen diner made it easy to cook and chat. The children (big and small) enjoyed the table football! Great location for Bourton and the wider Cotswolds!

Beautiful modern house in easy walking distance of the centre. Excellent kitchen facilities, underfloor heating, plenty of seating. Generous provisions to welcome you on arrival that were much appreciated. Safe for a young family.

Family Weekend

We had a wonderful stay at Lulham, Bourton on the Water. The house was conveniently situated, spotless, well equipped and very comfortable for a family of 9. I would have no hesitation in booking it again and recommending it to others. Stay Cotswold were a lovely company to deal with.

Clean well equipped house in good location but a few issues with the quality of the beds

A nice clean house but uncomfortable beds - too soft/too squeaky and/or too hard. Helpful house manager.

A great place for a family get-together.

This is the second time we have stayed at Lulham as the position is ideal for gathering our family of twelve together. The general layout works very well for our group of eight adults and four young children, and the house has been in immaculate condition both times we've stayed. Our only slight problem is with the late check-in time of 5:00pm, which could make the first evening with four very young children rather difficult. However, Eileen from StayCotswold was helpful on each occasion in making it possible for us to arrive a little earlier. We all very much enjoyed our stay and would hope to return.

Family Celebrations

We had an amazing weekend celebrating our Golden Wedding Anniversary with our family. The house gave us everything we needed and the grandchildren loved the football table game. Furnishings were lovely and the welcome goodies of wine, nibbles, milk and juice were a very welcome surprise. The walk into Bourton on the Water was easy. Overall we couldn’t have wished for more from our special weekend. Thank you.

A great base for a family get together.

This was a get together for the whole family, ages ranging from 2 to 70, and the house was really suited to the purpose as well as being spotlessly clean and very well presented. The open plan living accommodation was ideal, as was the huge dining table and the ensuite facilities in three of the bedrooms. Unfortunately the inclement weather meant that we didn't get to use the garden, but that too was well maintained and great for families. It was an easy walk into Bourton and a great position for exploring this area of the Cotswolds. The only very slight blip was the very creaky and rather uncomfortable metal bed in Bedroom 3, but this did not detract from the overall enjoyment of our stay.

Great location

The house was in a great location to get to Bourton on the Water on foot. The house was nice, strange that some of the bedrooms had Yale locks on them with no keys left in the house. We hired the whole house and one of the guest accidentally put the catch down on the door and was locked out of her room. I contacted the house manager and she kindly attended and opened the door for us. Maybe keys being left there would have saved a lot of stress for both parties. The garden needs a bit of modernisation and a hot tub would be a fab extra. The showers could do with somewhere to put bottles etc on the wall higher up as bending down can be difficult for some people. We had a very pleasant stay though overall. We were a group of 9 friends celebrating some milestone birthdays for a few of the guests and had a great stay.

A very comfortable house which worked perfectly for 8 adults and 4 children.

We thoroughly enjoyed our stay, great location within a short walk of Bourton on the Water. The accommodation worked really well, kitchen very well equipped, great amount of cutlery and crockery, although a coffee machine which took beans would have been better as we were unable to find the capsules needed. The fourth double bedroom was a bit disappointing. We felt very uneasy about the cameras in the garden and the noise monitoring, should be highlighted in the description and not be pointed out less than 2 weeks before our stay. Overall however, we had a fantastic family weekend.

Family Birthday celebrations

the property was spacious, clean, well equipped (except lack of microwave) and perfect for what we needed. We had a lovely time with prearranged early check in and ability to leave cars on driveway after check out. The only small minor was the fact that the rooms that are locked off if you are renting the house with less bedroom, had a Yale lock that could only be opened from the inside and there was no key for these doors at the property! These rooms were occupied by our children and therefore we were concerned that they could lock themselves in the room and not be able to unlock it again!! I have reported this to the booking agent we used and they have confirmed that they will look into this. It just seems very unsafe to have rooms usually occupied by children (bunk room and twin room) with these sorts on locks on the doors.

Ideal house for family get togethers

Lovely house, perfect for the size of our party (7 adults and 3 children), plenty of room for everyone and well stocked with pots and pans, crockery, glasses and cutlery. Also the welcome pack was appreciated. I had expected a microwave but there isn't one, also nowhere to put shower gel etc in the shower cubicles which means having to put it on the shower floor which isn't ideal for those of us getting on in age and the handrail on the stairs doesn't go all the way up the stairs which is also a safety issue for anyone with mobility problems. However the house is in a good location, it felt warm and welcoming and I would book it again and recommend to others.

Lovely family holiday home.

Lulham house was in a great location . We were a family group from grand parents to children. The house was lovely and had everything we needed and was well stocked with cleaning products/toiletries. Also a lovely welcome pack on our arrival. The only downside was the bedrooms above the lounge, the floors were very creaky. The bedroom with the white metal double bed was so uncomfortable, the mattress was very hard and every time you moved creaked. think it needs tightening and definitely a new mattress. The rug in the lounge has a permanent crease in, we had to roll it up as we kept tripping on it especially as it had a glass coffee table on. Otherwise a great house in a great location.

Perfect Family Get Together

Lulham provided the perfect space for us to celebrate several milestone family events. The house itself is in a peaceful, quiet location on the outskirts of the village with ample parking for our four cars. From the welcome complimentary goodies, the accommodation was clean, airy and light, spacious, and provided all the amenities that we needed. With four children in the party, the space, and enclosed garden was a godsend, and the large, well-equipped kitchen/dining area became a hub of what was going on each day. The lounge was large but still had a comfortable, cosy feel, and was the perfect setting for TV or board games in the evenings. The table football in the welcoming entrance hallway was also well used. The Bedrooms were large, and all bedding and towels etc clean and fresh. The bathroom and en-suites were very clean and well appointed. On a busy Bank Holiday weekend it was ideal to be able to leave the cars and walk into the village which even the four year old managed without too much trouble. On the one occasion we needed to contact the owner/agent they were friendly, helpful, and replied very promptly. Overall, Lulham was a lovely home-from-home in which to stay, and provided all we needed for a fantastic and memorable weekend in the beautiful Bourton-on-the-Water. I would thoroughly recommend staying in this property.

A lovely weekend with friends in Bourton-on-the-Water

Ten of us have the yearly tradition of hosting a Christmas weekend; this year it was ours to host. StayCotswold were very efficient from start to finish and responded to questions quickly. The house was a real pleasure to stay in and the Christmas tree was a little added extra which really made it feel celebratory. It was so easy to walk into Bourton too, the best of both worlds.

A week's stay at Lulham with extended family was great and everything we could hope for.

Our family group extending across 3 generations had a fabulous week's stay at Lulham over the August Bank holiday week. The house is brilliantly situated to be able to walk into Bourton-on-the-Water to wander around the sights or go to one of the many excellent pubs and restaurants. The house was well supplied with everything we needed, hot water when we needed it and plenty of space to eat around the table or spread out and relax in the lounge. Our only note for improvement would for the bedrooms that did not have wardrobes to have some other type of small rail or hanging rack for hanging at least a small number of clothes.

Excellent property, ideal for a family group

Lulham was very well presented and in an excellent location. Very well equipped and spacious kitchen. A lovely welcome pack and having dishwasher tablets etc provided was very good. Only two problems which have been previously reported. These might not affect most people, but we thought were important to mention: The children’s bedrooms have Yale locks and no keys. If a child fiddles with the lock they could be locked in and have to wait until the property manager was able to attend. This does not seem safe to me. Also the white metal bed creaks very loudly, making sleep very difficult. Only a problem if you need to use all the rooms! Otherwise many thanks for an excellent stay.
