Long weekend

Fantastic location, cosy and well equipped cottage, so easy to get out and about and see the beautiful Cotswolds. Being able to park off road in the centre of the village a real bonus.

North House, Bourton-on-the-Water

We had a very enjoyable 4-night stay at North House in June 2025. Great location in the centre of the village, close to all amenities. We were able to park both cars (Ford Focus & VW Golf) on the driveway, but it might be difficult for larger cars. It was nice to have a garden where you could sit out and relax. Owners were very friendly and helpful.

Beautiful home in a perfect location

North House has all the comforts of home, in the beautiful village of Bourton-on-the-Water. It's a peaceful haven in what can be a busy place, and it comes well-equipped (although a washer/dryer would have made the offering complete). Would recommend North House to anyone wanting a great location for a Cotswolds getaway.

A lovely cottage in a fantastic location!

We loved our stay at North Cottage. The open plan downstairs worked really well for our toddler as we could always see him. Beds were comfy and everything was well presented. The location really won the show - and to have parking too was a massive positive for us!

Highly Recommended

This delightful Cotswold Cottage is situated in the very heart of one of the most attractive villages, with the very lovely Winrush river within a minutes walk. There are two parking spaces in front of the cottage, and all amenities are within very easy and short walking distance. North House is very well appointed, and comfortable, having been given great attention to detail. We found the cottage to be immaculately clean

North House Rocks!!

So if you are fortunate enough to have a little time to spend in the Cotswolds-- and you want a lovely cottage a few steps to the water with a beautiful private backyard garden, modern appliances, a parking space in a village with few of them, cozy bedrooms with views, very comfortable sitting space living room to relax, a very responsive owner, all the amenities you could possibly want-- then THIS IS YOUR HOME!. We from the states and spend lots of time in the Cotswolds and find Bourton on the water to be the best central launch point with superb dining and drinking options-- a co-op nearby-- and awesome walking trails-- we hoped to find an authentic home to relax in which is both close to the shopping/eating/pubbing and yet removed enough to not be in the crowded and the North House was everything we could have asked for. THANKS for allowing us to stay and hope we can visit again quite soon.

An amazing cottage in a perfect location!

Our stay at North House was nothing but amazing! The cottage was clean, charming and well equipped. We particularly enjoyed being able to play football in the back garden and the basket of board games in the living room :) It is situated right in the heart of Bourton-on-the-Water, a hop & a skip to the cute shops, cafes and beautifully clean river! We would certainly recommend this cottage!

Perfect Location at Bourton-on-the-Water

Excellent central location at Bourton with parking right in front of the cottage, though a bit tight for two cars as advertised; modernised interior with everything you need except a washing machine and or a dryer; beautiful garden; a bit noisy with the nearby pub and bustling tourists; walking distance to everything at Bourton

A Great house in Bourton-on-the-water

The house was very good with two floors and comfortable rooms. It was mostly quiet even though it was close to the little river that are bustling with tourists. The town was a goods starting point för excursios to nearby places.

Picture Perfect

The cottage was very welcoming & cosy, perfectly located to experience the village & local sites. A home from home. The owners were lovely and it was reassuring to have their details, they clearly care about service and care for guests staying at North House. Had a beautiful family trip where we explored, bonded, reconnected with nature and discovered a whole new area. We will definitely be back for more.

Excellent Cottage, Perfect Location

My wife and I stayed for a few days. We've visited the area several times and love this location. The cottage is perfectly situated, very clean, quiet at night, offers easy parking for one car directly in front of the home. We would highly recommend this property.

An amazing stay, highly recommend.

We had the most amazing stay at North House. We are holidaying from Australia, and The Cotswolds was one area we were very keen to visit. Bourton on the Water did not disappoint. The cottage was gorgeous and had everything we needed, it was clean, modern and a perfect layout. We particularly loved the back yard for the kids to run around in. The location was absolutely fabulous - a few doors up from the perfumery, antique shops and one street back from the river and main strip which had restaurants, pub, tea rooms, shops etc. It was one of the best holiday accomodations we have experienced. I can highly recommend this amazing property.

Perfect accommodation in a very convenient and idyllic location

When we arrived on a rainy, chilly evening it was very welcoming to find that the heating was on. The house was spotlessly clean and perfect in every way. The bathroom was spacious and modern, the master bedroom was big enough with plenty of storage and a comfortable bed. The property is located on a quiet street minutes walk from many pubs, bars, cafes and restaurants. The kitchen is small, but fully equipped should you decide to cook. The garden was secluded and not overlooked and we enjoyed sitting out on the patio when the weather improved for a couple of days. We have stayed in many self catering rental properties and this is one of the best.

Wow

WOW. I don’t think pictures do this house justice. It’s on street behind main stretch of Bourton on Water. So when tourists dwindle down you can pop out to take a few unspoilt photos. There are a few tourists walking pass the house but not overlooked. Modern kitchen with all utensils and crockery you will need are provided and we did cook a few times there. Open plan dining and living area really benefitted us with young children. Beautiful garden which we did an Easter egg hunt in. Shower is powerful and hot. Towels are white, clean and fluffy. Bedrooms been refreshed and bed is soft with plenty of pillows to choose from. Spoke to the hosts and were extremely accommodating with check in and check out times. Having own parking space in such a location was a god send! We drive an X3 and would not have been able to fit another car on the drive, therefore be mindful if you’re planning on parking two similar sized cars. A little on the pricier side but you’re paying for prime location, cleanliness, responsive and accommodating hosts, convenience, all necessary facilities. Have shared north house with friends already!!

Beautiful Cottage in Bourton-in-the-Water

We had a great stay at this cottage in the Cotswolds. Was a bonus to have dedicated parking at the front. Just a little feedback for the housekeeping team, the bins in the kitchen had not been emptied from the previous stay so we had to do this ourselves.
