Tripadvisor’s approach to reviews
Before posting, each Tripadvisor review goes through an automated tracking system, which collects information, answering the following questions: how, what, where and when. If the system detects something that potentially contradicts our community guidelines, the review is not published.
When the system detects a problem, a review may be automatically rejected, sent to the reviewer for validation, or manually reviewed by our team of content specialists, who work 24/7 to maintain the quality of the reviews on our site.
Our team checks each review posted on the site disputed by our community as not meeting our community guidelines.
If you have submitted a review for a holiday rental property, we may also ask that you provide us with proof of your stay to ensure that your review is attached to the correct rental property.
Holiday rental reviews collected via the VRBO website (formerly Homeaway) and syndicated to the Tripadvisor website are not currently subject to Tripadvisor’s standard moderation processes.

Felt like home
The house was a 5 minute walk into the township which is well served with pubs and cafes and a 7 minute walk to a well stocked supermarket.
We did not visit many local attractions as many were closed for the winter/ Christmas holidays
The house itself was well equipped with all we needed to cater for 14 folk as Christmas time and it could cover little ones as well.
Overall, the 10 of us there for the week felt very comfortable and I for one was a little sad to leave.
The owner was a delight to deal with over the period we were trying to get there during the COVID madness.

Very enjoyable weekend in a beautiful location. The house was extremely well equipped and comfortable. We were provided with wine, milk, bread and a few other essentials which is always appreciated. We would all recommend this property.

Lovely house in a great location
This lovely house is just a very short walk from all the attractions of Bourton-on-the-Water. It can sleep 14 but there were 10 of us so more than enough room. The garden was particularly useful because we had young children in our party and it is very secure. Cotswold Farm Park is just 7 miles away and proved very popular with all the children but there is plenty to see in the area to suit all ages. Highly recommended if you need a larger place to stay.

Great house for family celebration
The property was clean, well equipped and furnished nicely. It's a big property (6 bedrooms) but doesn't feel too big. The downstairs has a lovely flow to it and the kitchen/diner area was a great place to gather. The outside space was lovely (a little overlooked but not intrusively so). We made use of the gas BBQ and the ping pong table. The lawn was a little bumpy which made for an enjoyable (if frustrating) game of boules!
The kitchen was very well equipped and the little touches like dishwasher tabs, cloths, etc were appreciated. We also had a generous welcome basket - again much appreciated.
The walk into the village is about 10 minutes level walk which my 80 year father managed.
The owner, Michael, was great with his communications - quick responses to my many questions. Also, he was happy to recommend places.
We visited Birdland which we all enjoyed (from ages 5 - 80). A few of us went to the Model Village (personally, less enjoyable for me). The village is lovely - lots to potter around and see. Lovely shops and tasty ice creams!
All in all a great weekend in a lovely house. We'd definitely go back. Thank you Michael!

Fabulous weekend break with the girls
Great location, within walking distance to all the facilities in Bourton-on-the-Water, lots of parking, great group space especially in the kitchen/dining area. We enjoyed long boozy meals around the table, followed by a cosy evening watching a film in front of the log burning stove - a perfect weekend break. A great rental for a large group or a family. Thanks Michael!

Beautiful property!
We have just spent Christmas in this gorgeous house with family coming from all over, and it was the perfect choice! The location couldn’t be more chocolate box, so Christmassy, the house itself, log fire, cosy corners, lovely linens, well equipped, it had absolutely everything you needed for a memorable stay! The only thing missing were champagne glasses, and that’s me being super picky but with it being such a great house for Christmas and New Year, they would have been welcomed! Aside from that, there is nothing to dislike about this house, we fell in love with it, it felt like home very quickly and sincerely hope to return one day!

How to get there
Directions to the property are as follows:-
From the A429 Fosse Way there are two ways to Nethercote House:-
1. From the South side (coming from the A40 before joining the A429), turn right at the first signpost to Bourton on the Water, turning into the High Street. Follow the High Street all the way through the village until you reach a junction on a slight bend. Turn right. This is Rissington Road. Go passed Birdland on your right, you will then pass a large car park also on the right, passed the next road on the right and Nethercote is the next house on your right (almost directly opposite Bridle Close). If you get as far as Sadlers Edge on your left you have gone too far!
2. From the North (coming on the A429 from Stow on the Wold) take the first turning on the left in to Station Road to Bourton. Follow Station Road heading towards the centre of the village. You will come to a bend in the road (and will see a right turn in to the village centre). Follow the bend round to the left and you will now be on Rissington Road. Now follow the directions as above going passed Birdland etc.
