Lovely little cottage in a beautiful location. Very well equipped with attentive hosts right next door should you have any issues (we didn't!) Perfect base for exploring the Cotswolds. If parking is full just round the corner there is a parking permit available for a nearby car park which we used a couple of times.

What a lovely little place and could not beat the location and the view. The stairs were a bit of a challenge, but the hand holds and automatic lights helped tremendously. Would definitely recommend this charming spot.

A beautiful 15th century cottage in an idyllic location - very small, but perfect for two. Mill street looks out over the river Avon and the ancient pasture called the Ham. Listening to the nesting Curlews in the morning is a magical experience. Tewkesbury is an interesting and historic town with lots to see and explore. Highly recommended!!

9 mill bank was the PERFECT getaway spot. Bill and Dawn were the perfect hosts, so kind and always offered help and support, we really appreciated this. The cottage is cosy but plenty of room for two adults, amazing fire, comfy bed, and great location. A stunning nature walk is just on the doorstep but you are seconds away from restaurants and pubsRead more. So take a book and chill out for your stay and pretend you are in a Beatrix Potter book.
