Quaint English cottage in a small village. Well stocked and comfortable beds. Very small and very low ceilings and door openings.

Close To Everything Yet Far Enough
What an absolutely beautiful stay my mom and I had at Letterbox Cottage. This was our first visit to the UK and we could not have picked a better place to stay. This cottage is situated just close enough to Chipping Campden and surrounding towns, but offers a rural escape when you want quiet. Everything was provided to cook any meal you could want. The beds were exceptionally comfortable and the scenery cannot be beat!

Short break
Enjoyed our short break in the Cotswolds very pretty comfortable cottage ideal for 4 people. Old and characterful would have been good to know a bit more about the history of the cottage/ local village. Walking distance to hidcote gardens, 10 mins drive to chipping Camden and can recommend Howard arms at Ilmington for a good Sunday lunch.
At this time of year loved the central heating, very quiet location, friendly residents. Good facilities in the cottage but steep narrow stairs to first floor, however we would book again.

Good short stay
Nice quiet location good for a getaway from London. Only downside is the low ceilings in some areas of the property - not just low, but lumpy and irregular.

Picture postcard cottage
Letterbox cottage is a beautiful cottage in a small hamlet 3 miles from Chipping Campden, It was spotlessly clean , well equipped and everything was in very good condition . Bedding lovely and white and towels too . We had a very nice stay and would recommend .
Charming cottage in the bucolic Cotswolds! We loved our stay in this picture perfect hamlet. We did have a bit of sugar ants, but otherwise everything was very clean & lovely. Can't wait to visit again!
The house was adorable! Very comfortable but not for the very tall. Enjoyed the quietness of the area and the many sounds of the doves. Met the friendly neighbors and their horses and sheep just a few houses down. Wish we could have stayed longer. Excellent choice!

Letterbox, a first acquaintance and a nice one
Coming from a very modern holiday home the week before, this was completely the opposite but it grew on me. A very pleasant stay in pleasant surroundings, with a perfect little sun trap garden. In a very quiet picture postcard village. I didn’t miss a thing whilst staying there. Would be definitely be an option to return there next year.
Alles war sehr schön, die Lage, das Haus, der Garten, die Nachbarn, das Wetter!
Allerding wäre ein Hinweis zu den niedrigen Decken nett gewesen, wir 4 (alle zwischen 175 und 190 cm groß) mussten nach 10 Tagen Aufenthalt den aufrechten Gang wieder lernen ;) !!
Besten Dank und Grüße aus Berlin!

Everything we hoped it would be!
Our time at Letterbox Cottage was beautiful. It was everything we hoped it would be. The cottage is straight from a fairytale and we had such a lovely time during our stay.
From the beginning, the communication was accessible and very clear. We had no issues whatsoever and were pleasantly surprised at the thoughtful details Welly Boot Cottages puts into everything.
I cannot recommend this stay enough, and I'm counting down the days until we get to go back.
