We’ve had a lovely stay at Little Bird Cottage. The location was perfect, the cottage was so warm and cosy, and the bed was honestly the most comfortable bed I’ve ever slept in! Everything was just perfect, and the only complaint we have is that we had to leave! 🤣 No complaints it was perfect

Lovely cottage. Very clean. Gorgeous complementary Victoria loaf 😋 No faults at all with the property 😀 Bibury does not have a shop to buy essentials, so be prepared to drive for shopping.

Such a cosy quaint Cotswold cottage. Perfect for 2 plus the dog. Situated in a very private quiet lane. So close to walk into the vilage and just far enough away to avoud the business of the village. Nothing - it was just lovely

Quirky historic cottage with modern finishes, perfect space for a couple and a dog for a long weekend. Around the corner from the busy town square and close to walking routes.

The cottage is beautifully presented and in an ideal location near the village centre and local walks. The bed was very comfy and all facilities needed were provided. We would highly recommend this cottage. No dislikes

Everything! It was a lovely cosy cottage with everything you needed and perfect location right by a beautiful church and walking distance to the local pubs and cafes. Richard was very easy to contact and very fast to reply! We would love to stay again but for longer next time Everything was perfect apart from the bed was hard needs a topper or something our old bones don’t like hard beds anymore 😄

Super location and the accomodation itself was stunning, they really had thought of everything you may need and more. Everything was of a good quality and was a really enjoyable stay. Loved everything about the property but would have been useful to know the exact amount for dogs before booking - we paid £40 for 2 dogs.

Loved this adorable cottage in gorgeous Bibury! We spent the weekend here (with our dog) and it felt so luxury - lots of cute design features means it feels very luxurious. The bed is exceptionally comfortable; we both slept really well! The hosts were super responsive in advance of our trip and made sure we had everything we needed for our stay once we arrived. Location is great; the cottage makes for an easy base to explore the Cotswolds from or just stay put and relax in the village. Lots of nearby cafés and pubs. We'll definitely be back!

Property was lovely. Fantastic location. The bed and sofa were quite uncomfortable, but then everyone has different opinions on comfort.
