Cross Keys Cottage autumn weekender
We had a wonderful stay at Cross Keys Cottage. The house has a lovely well equipped kitchen and plenty of comfy sofas to lounge around on. With Stow on the Wold literally on the doorstep, the location is perfect too.

A lovely cottage in the heart of Stow, with plenty of room for sleeping, living and dining.
This cottage is ideal for a family gathering, with plenty of bedrooms and bathrooms and lots of space in the well equipped kitchen and comfortable living areas. I can absolutely recommend using the Old Butchers restaurant next door, which provided an excellent dinner served in the house itself.

The best weekend
The cottage was beautiful. We booked it for the entire family to stay for our wedding weekend. The cottage is more than big enough to sleep 9 adults and 4 children. The welcome pack was a nice touch. The entire home is well laid out, has everything you need and very cosy on a wet winters day when we all sat in front of the fire. Highly recommend and cannot wait to book to stay again!

We had the most wonderful stay at Cross Keys Cottage celebrating my 80th birthday. The cottage is very well equipped and in an excellent position. We were all very sad to leave and we had the most beautiful weather which enabled us to sit in the garden which is beautiful.

We had an absolutely wonderful stay at Cross Keys Cottage. We loved everything about the house - the space worked perfectly for our family group ages 2 - 78. We loved all the little touches and care that had obviously gone into making it a fabulous holiday let.

The perfect Cotswolds cottage.
The pictures do not do Cross Keys cottage justice. The place is stunning! If you’re looking for a comfortable retreat for a large family or group, I could not recommend it highly enough. The location is also perfect, right in the middle of one of the prettiest towns in the Cotswolds, surrounded by walks, pubs, shops and so much more.
We had the perfect long weekend away.

Wonderful cottage for a family reunion
We enjoyed a wonderful family reunion at Cross Keys Cottage. The house is centrally located, surprisingly spacious, and well maintained, with very comfortable beds! The owners were gracious enough to extend our check out at no cost to allow us time for a lazy lunch. Highly recommended.

Ideal for a birthday celebration
Good size property for large family gathering. Large well equipped kitchen room for a number lof cooks. Enough seating in the lounge to sit together. Loved the long dinning table where we could eat and reminisce. Situated in town so some could explore great shops while others tried one of many pubs

Amazing stay for my 30th Birthday!
13 of us stayed here for 3 nights to celebrate my 30th Birthday and it was the most perfect house for this.
We have stayed in Stow before and the all over the Cotswolds many more times but this was by far our best visit yet.
The house was so well equipped and laid out for a group or family and the location is great. - The house is bigger than the photos make it seem which was real bonus.
We would definitely return and would highly recommend this property.
Thank you for such a wonderful stay in this beautiful cottage!

Lovely cottage in central cotswolds location
we stayed at Crosskeys as an extended family group for a birthday celebration. Everyone from 6yrs old to 80yrs old were happy with the cottage and found lots of comfort and space to all be together and to do have separate areas when the teenagers needed it. Louise was very helpful in sorting out minor issues on arrival and setting up a restaurant at home celebration for us, with the service and food from The Old Butchers being very top quality. We found lots to do strolling around the town, exploring Bourton on the Water and heading over to Cheltenham when wet weather made indoor fun necessary.

Family Celebratory Weekend
What a lovely cottage! Full of charm and mod cons. Well equipped kitchen - more than enough quality wine glasses! We were a gathering of 13, lots of space for us all - the large living room was comfortable and a great space for family games and beautifully cosy with the log burner going. All the bedrooms are gorgeous, very comfortable beds, beautiful linen and towels.
We organised dinner on one evening through The Old Butcher’s- it was fabulous!
Highly recommend this lovely cottage - we didn’t want to leave.

Family Easter holiday
We were a family group of 13 - age range 16 to 84. And we had 2 dogs with us. Property worked really well and was very comfortable with lots of space that worked for everyone. It was exactly as described, especially about the uneven floors, so the older family members had the bedroom downstairs & this worked really well. We really loved the outside space and took advantage of the sunny weather. Kitchen was well equipped & set up for a big group and we cooked several meals where all of us ate together.We also had no problem with finding parking. Would thoroughly recommend.

Perfect cottage
We absolutely loved everything about the cottage location and décor. The process and instructions arrival, key collection were very simple.
We were greeted by the cottage owner who took us in to the property and show us around. We even got 2 bottles of prosecco on arrival, freshly baked bread, eggs and fresh milk in the fridge.
What a lovely treat!
The cottage is specious, ideal for family gathering. Kitchen is equipped fantastically. Large hob to cook, 2 toasters, 1 large fridge and 2 wine fridges, 2 dishwashers.
It was such a great stay. We loved everything about the place, location and hospitality.

80th birthday celebration
Fabulous time had by all. 2 minor considerations. Didn’t feel the kitchen was as well equipped as expected- lack of bowls, garlic crusher etc. also stairs were quite tricky to negotiate so may well be worth mentioning

Superb weekend stay for wedding!
We stayed at Cross Keys Party as we were having our wedding nearby! The cottage was a fantastic base for the weekend. It was in the heart of Stow which had everything you could possibly need. There are plenty of nice pubs, fast food (if needed) and shops nearby which is super convenient.
The cottage itself was clean, spacious and had everything you would need. The cottage had great character and was very comfortable. The communication from the owner was fantastic and we were also offered late check out free of charge which was very much appreciated (with some sore heads from the wedding).
I would definitely recommend staying here and Stow itself is a lovely Cotswold town.
Thanks again!

Relaxing stay for family and wife 60th birthday
A very welcoming set up for all 12 family members. The garden furniture was a big hit because the weather was very good. Enough bathrooms being as we had elderly people and a heavily pregnant daughter. The kitchen had everything we needed and the lounge area with the bi-folding doors made it a great space to communicate with everyone. Lots of amenities about the town with good pubs and restaurants at a stones throw. A good Indian takeaway and Chinese just across the road was great and local co-op for milk etc. I would recommend a stay here at all times of the year but for our own experience it was very memorable and I cannot speak more highly of the cottage and our wonderful stay.
