Family Christmas trip to Morton in Marsh, great location and lovely cottage

Great cottage, in a lovely location. Very well equipped with everything you need and more for a great stay. Done to a high spec, and bigger than it appears in the pictures. Cosy and comfortable lounge, with plenty of seating, and a lovely log burner which is great in winter months. The owners even went to the length of decorating for Christmas which was a lovely touch to our family holiday. Would definitely go back!

Fantastic accommodation in a fantastic location

Fantastic accommodation with everything we needed. Loved the welcome pack and the coffee pods. Great location just off the High Street. Would provide a warning about the car port. I have a medium sized car and it was tight getting into the parking space. Would also have liked some walking guides.

Great location, beautiful cottage

We had a wonderful time at the Old Candle Shop. The location is perfect and having space for a car was great for day trips. The space was clean and had all of the amenities we could need. Great for a family vacation. The hot tub was a wonderful bonus to use in the evening.

Lovely place to stay

The Old Candle shop was a lovely place to stay. It is beautifully presented and well equipped. Although in the heart of Moreton in Marsh it is surprisingly private. The hot tub was the icing on the cake! Would love to stay again.

Pre Christmas break

This was our second stay in The Old Candle Shop and it was as good as the first. It was spotless, it’s very comfortable and is very well equipped. The welcome pack is a nice touch and the hot tub a big bonus. The location is great - nowhere seems far. We visited Burford and its Garden Centre, Bibury, Broadway, Bourton-on-the-water, Chipping Campden, Cirencester and The Slaughters. We had a perfect evening meal at The Royal Oak in Ramsden - highly recommend. It was a little cool at times in the lounge as the radiators weren’t on and there was a very small amount of logs and kindling left for us. Despite these two minor issues, our stay was fabulous and we will definitely be back a third time!!

Gorgeous house & great location

The old candle shop is a beautiful house, & well equipped with all you need, including fans as we had a super hot weekends stay, upstairs bedrooms gets very very warm with the big glass windows. Great location to the town, & good having an electric charger for the car. Only disappointiment was a little bit more attention needed to the cleanliness of hot tub, we had to wipe all round the edges ourselves before use. Would definitely recommend house for a stay at Cotswolds!

Fantastic location

We stayed as a group of four adults at the property for a week at the end of September. The property is well equipped & stylishly decorated. The location is great just a 30 second walk to the high street where there are several eateries, cafes & supermarkets. All the pubs we visited severed great food. A couple of negatives, the property wasn’t as clean as I would expect it was dusty & grimey in places, appreciate it is the end of the season but think a deep clean was needed. Also I think it needed a bit of maintenance as two of the toilet seats were loose & several chipped plates mugs etc, having said that we had a lovely stay and would recommend it to others.

A beautiful place to stay

We had a fantastic few days at The Old Candle Shop. The cottage was beautiful and spotlessly clean. It also had absolutely everything anyone would need from milk and butter in the fridge to dog treats in the cupboard. Location-wise, the cottage is in the heart of Moreton-in-Marsh, just behind the High Street, with plenty of places to eat and drink. The walks were beautiful too! A perfect place to stay and we wouldn't hesitate to go back again, it was a real 'home from home' holiday.

Lovely festive stay

We had a lovely stay at The Old Candle shop. Everything we needed was there for four of us, it was lovely done! We spent our evenings by the fire playing games and watching Christmas films. Location was great as we had everything we needed in the village but was easy to get to all the villages we wanted to visit too. It was also lovely having our own ensuite too and the piano was a nice touch. We would 100% stay again.
