About this property
Woodland Cottage - Temple Guiting, Dog Friendly
Woodland Cottage is tucked away in a peaceful setting in the village of Temple Guiting. A hidden oasis on the edge of a small woodland, it encloses you in its sanctuary. Walk past the wonderful wildflower garden buzzing with life, the wind rustling in the trees and gentle sounds of birds putting you at ease. Though you may wish to linger in the garden, the beautifully finished interior of Woodland Cottage awaits. The entrance hall has space to hang your coats and leave your bags before racing off to choose your favourite bedroom. There are two king-size rooms, one on the ground floor, and a triple room with three single beds, perfect for children or friends sharing. With three bathrooms you won't be treading on each other's toes while getting ready for the day.
The kitchen/diner is open to the sitting room giving this cottage a lovely flow so everybody can be together no matter their activity. The rustic wood dining table seats seven and you can gather in front of the decorative fireplace for evening games. Homely touches of modern country cottage style textiles add character to each room, alongside carefully chosen pieces of furniture.
A break at Woodland Cottage will recharge your batteries. Spend leisurely days in the garden, explore the area on dog walks or head deeper into the Cotswolds to explore this Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty.
Ground Floor
Kitchen/Diner: The kitchen/diner combines traditional Cotswold cottage with a modern edge. The dark units provide storage space and hide away the dishwasher. There is a Rangemaster double oven with 5-ring hob and a large fridge. A rustic wooden dining table provides space for seven to dine together.
Living Room: Overlooking the garden the living room has statement blue sofas in front of the decorative fireplace. It is a tranquil spot with plenty of space for playing board games or watching a film together in the evening.
Utility: To the side of the kitchen is the utility where you will find general cleaning supplies and a washing machine.
Family Shower Room: The shower room is handy for bedroom one next door and has a rainfall shower, WC and sink.
Bedroom One: This delightful bedroom has a king-size bed which sits in front of scandi-style wood paneling. The shelf provides space for reading lamps and your morning coffee. Looking out to the garden the stylish blinds add colour and personality to this room.
First Floor
Landing: There is space here to set up your laptop if you need to catch up on any work while you are away. Overlooking the woodland, for which this cottage is named, it's a lovely spot for writing your e-mails.
Bedroom Two: With three single beds this room provides flexibility with the sleeping arrangements. It would be ideal as a children's room so they can spend more time together.
Family Bathroom: This room has a bath with a handheld shower, WC and sink. It is spacious with a wicker chair to relax in, making it useful for bathing younger children.
Bedroom Three: The master bedroom has a king-size bed and looks out across the garden to the picturesque neighbouring cottage. Decorated with accents of pastel pinks, it is a relaxing room and there is the addition of an en-suite.
En-Suite: The en-suite gives the final bedroom more privacy. There is a shower, WC and sink.
Outside
With private gated access, the garden is a beautiful spot that catches the sun. A wooden table and chairs are here so you enjoy can evening meals, morning coffee, or drinks together after a long country walk.

Lovely accomodation in a lovely location
We loved our stay in Woodland cottage. Clean, cosy and in a beautiful location. We were happy with the service and particularly loved that we were able to bring the family dog along for a stay too.

Wonderful stay
Cottage was fantastic, exactly what we were expecting from the photos and description. We had everything we needed for our stay and it was a wonderfully quiet location. Lots of walks from the door that our dog enjoyed. We walked tonthe HalfWay at Kineton for dinner one night and it was great. Highly recommend a stay here.

Lovely cottage in an ideal location
We had a wonderful stay at Woodland Cottage with a multigenerational group of 5 (the lower bedroom was ideal for older grandparents). It was very clean and modern inside, and had a nice sit out area as well as ample seating inside - the couches could probably do with an uplift - but other than that everything interior was lovely. It is also in a great location with many Cotswolds villages within a 20-30 minute drive and provisions within a 15 minute drive.

A very pleasant stay
A very clean and tidy cottage in a lovely quiet rural location. The property manager was really pleasant and helpful. The only thing lacking was a little freezer

Great Cotswold base
This is our second stay at woodland cottage. We love the sociable downstairs layout and three bathroom arrangement. Perfect for meeting family as it’s mid way between our homes. Fantastic quiet location with walks for the dogs from the door.

Lovely quiet cottage
A lovely Cotswold cottage in a quiet location. Comfortable accommodation with pristine linen and powerful showers. So great that they accept dogs. Very minor suggestion, could do with a potato peeler please .

A lovely property
The property is located in a very peaceful position with wonderful walks straight from the front door. It was spotlessly clean with very comfortable beds made up with excellent quality bed linen. The kitchen was well equipped with a large fridge and all the necessary equipment you need. Fresh eggs, milk and bread were a welcome addition. Three generations enjoyed our time at Woodland Cottage - a property we wouldn’t hesitate to recommend.

Half Term Break
A really lovely break - superb cottage, well kept and very comfortable. What put this above other cottages we have stayed with is the little extras - cleaning equipment, oil, salt and pepper, spare light bulbs etc On arrival there was also bread, milk and eggs which was a lovely touch! Icing on the cake would have been a cream tea….. will leave that with you!
Great base to explore the Cotswolds, would recommend the 4 mile circular walk and a visit to Batsford arboretum.
5* highly recommended.

A perfect family Christmas location
We celebrated an early Christmas at Woodland Cottage - 5 adults and 2 children and it was perfect for us. Angela personally welcomed us and had put up festive decorations which added to the warmth of the pretty cottage. The third bedroom with three single beds worked especially well and the three bathrooms were a big plus. I cooked a Christmas dinner and there were plenty of pots, pans, baking trays etc - unusual for a holiday cottage to be so well stocked. Much appreciated and dinner was delicious! The fresh local eggs provided were a real treat for breakfast too. The storms prevented us from doing too much in the area but it was so cosy in the cottage, it didn't really matter. Luckily we didn't lose power, although the wifi and phone signal was out of action. It really didn't matter - we played games, had fun and chatted. All in all a lovely stay and I'd definitely recommend it to other families.

Weekend away
Had a fantastic time here - the inlaws came from abroad and we wanted to get them out of the city. The cottage was fantastic - very high spec, cosy and plenty of space. beautiful location and accessible to the surrounding villages to explore the Cotswolds. The communication was great - quick, hellpful and accomodating. We had a wonderful time.
Perfect Cotswalds escape for a relaxed few day with two great local pubs 3 minutes away in each direction. Very quiet and a lovely village atmosphere. Please note though it is advertised both online and in the accommodation manual as having a washer/dryer, there is no dryer to be found so if you are on a long trip and looking for a dryer, none is provided

Fantastic!
This is our second time at Woodland Cottage and we absolutely loved it again. It is very comfortable, lovely decorated, and very well situated. We met the owner who was also ready if needed anything. We must have stayed at about 10 Bolthole Retreats so far and this has been our favourite. We will definitely be back!

Comfortable Stay in a great location
We had a wonderful stay in Woodland Cottage. The cottage is beautifully decorated and everything was there to make our stay easy. We used all three bedrooms and everyone commented on how comfortable the beds are. The towels were thick and fluffy and everything was spotless. There is a lovely little walk in the woods from the cottage. The Halfway House pub is a short drive away and we all loved our meal there with unmissable desserts. The cottage is centrally located to explore the Cotswolds by car. Thanks so much for hosting us!

Woodland to The Cottage
We enjoyed our stay at Temple Guiting. However, we had to move from Woodland Cottage to The Cottage across the courtyard, due to issues with plumbing and electrics. The housekeeper and owner resolved the situation swiftly.

The instruction for key location was incorrect, the details said that the key safe was by the side door however it was actually on the opposite side of the house and since we arrived in the dark this made a difference as it was difficult to locate.
Toilet seats in two bathrooms need adjusting
