Mr B

Have been coming to the Cotswolds for many years and have stayed in some lovely places, but this is the best by far. So well equipped, lovely garden. Thank you so much, we'd love to come again.

August 2009
The house is lovely, clean and so well equipped. Our family joined us, the house was so suitable for us all they loved it. We shall certainly return.
Sept 2009
At the risk of sounding repetitive, it would impossible not to comment on how exceedingly well equipped the house is. Having stayed at quite a few cottages, the standard and quality at Gable House exceeds most if not all! Wehave had an exceedingly enjoyable stay - helped by the house, location and far better weather than expected!
Aug 2009
We thoroughly enjoyed staying in your lovely home. Everything we needed was here. My daughter loved the kitchen and cooked us some lovely meals using local produce plus herbs from the garden! We found Blockley very central to the many villages in the Cotswolds. What a wonderful place to finish our last two weeks in the UK.
Aug 2010
We had a lovely short break here prior to our daughter going off to Beijing to work. The house is charming, lovely and warm and everything so clean and neat. Blockley is a delight and we made sure we did our shopping there and can recommend the 'Blockley Argentine Malbec' to accompany dinner.
Sep 2010
A perfect location for an Autumn break aided by three days of glorious weather. We explored many local places of interest. In particular we experienced Batford Arboretum. The house met all our expectations and we would definately recommend it. Many thanks
