This worked well for us for 1 night stay for a wedding in Stow in the Wold. Very central location, with free nearby parking. Beautiful room. We were aware in advance that there was an exterior private bathroom (this was the last available room). It was a bit fiddly with key codes in the night but we managed fine. The room had character and we liked the touch of the welcome sherry and provision of fluffy robes. We did face onto the main road and the traffic does start early but overall happy with our choice and liked the central location for finding breakfast the next morning. Key code to enter the property was provided 24 hours in advance. 

Good central location for 1 night stay

Stayed here for one night in way to Cornwall having been to Stow for a day previously. This abode is one of the best rooms I have ever stayed in. It definitely had the wow factor. Very large, well decorated and furnished with a huge bed. The decanter of sherry was a sumptuous touch. Victoria house is very well located with parking nearby on the street and a coffee shop next door for breakfast. Could not have wished for more thank you.

Room with a wow factor

The location was strategic, near the Market Place. The perks were nice - a bathrobe, a pair of slippers, half a bottle of sherry.
The house is unmanned. No human touch.
The external bathroom was a nightmare. Had to walk out of your bedroom in the middle of the night, with a lot of stuff in your arms, down two high stairs, manoevre a number lock, everytime you want to use the toilet or get some water for your flask!
The worst about the bath was, there was only enough water for one person to bathe on the highest floor. Halfway through the bath, the second person has to scoop water from the sink to wash off the shampoo and bath gel from the body.
The pillows had no body and kept slipping off.
My conclusion is: This place is great in peripherals like sherry, etc.; terrible in essentials like bathroom and human touch.

Wonderful location as long as one doesn't bother about bathing. 

We booked room 1 and this was out first time booking a serviced apartment. On the whole it was a great location and the room had plenty of space. The TV coming out of the bottom of the bed is a great nifty idea, but if your elsewhere in the room i.e. sat in a chair, of course you can't see the TV.

We hadn't realised that the bathroom didn't have a door, but an ill-fitting curtain, so this was a little disappointing for us as we prefer a solid door, but that's perhaps just us.

The bed was comfy, and the room was surprisingly quiet at night, although we had a bit of an issue with other residents. As there is no owner or reception, other residents who didn't know how to get in, assumed we ran it being in the room on the ground floor, and we were frightened to death at a banging on the window to get our attention and to let them in the front door. It took a bit to explain we were only staying there too. It must have taken them a while to work out what to do as for the next couple of hours they were in and out of the front door and up and down the stairs, which was very noisy. So my advice would be, don't book room 1.

Great location

Great location but all the plus points of this place with marred by the endless traffic buses lorries cars tourists going back-and-forth inches from our window and headboard. The rush-hour seem to start at five in the morning so if you’re a light sleeper forget it!

So noisy

Lovely room on ground floor. Water, local fudge and sherry in room. Access code provided. Dint see staff but everything was smooth. They helped us on the phone for our heater query. no breakfast available. Location is fantastic. Free parking on the street after 6 pm. Community fridge under the landing. Very near all restaurants, supermarket and main square

lovely place with no reception desk

Booked well in advance and we were informed by email that the 3 access codes would be sent 24 hours before arrival as these were required to access the front door, room and bathroom. This did not happen. I tried to contact the customer service desk number provided by the property to no avail.  Thank goodness that Booking.com had a fantastic customer service and they provided the information needed. We were not the only people to have This problem as another couple were sat outside the front door when we returned on the second afternoon of our stay they were also tring to contact the property owners. The information given by the property also stated that you were required to hang a card on the door handle if you wanted the room made up, this was also ignored. This review is not all negative the property is very well situated and our Room was very nice,  both comfortable and very clean, some very nice extras were provided as well. If these issues were addressed then the review would have been much better.

Poor communication from property

This was absolutely great.
- Smelled great and was super clean
- Excellent location (small town and this close to the heart)
- Easy to access with codes
- Great facilities (clean bathroom with strong water pressure and bathtub, kettle with loads of complimentary goodies, plenty of towels and fluffy robes)
- Great price
Highly recc!

Can't ask for more

Property is not staffed. The room was comfortable - bathroom was lovely - a private bathroom, which was easy to access.

Windows need cleaning and behind the windows.

My only gripe is the parking, otherwise a very lovely place to stay for a few days.

Lovely house

We booked this property for an overnight stay in this beautiful part of the UK, for a quick winter getaway.

Location wise, the property is in a great spot on Sheep At, close walking distance to a number of good quality pubs and restaurants and a 5 minute walk away from the centre of the village. 

There was free parking on the street outside the property between 4pm and 8am however as we got there before 4pm we opted to park on nearby Maugersbury Road Car Park which was a 5 minute walk away and was free after 3pm until 8am the following morning. We used the parking app to pay for a few hours when we woke up.

Entry to the building is with codes and is given the day before check in which worked well and was uber simple.

We booked room 1 on the ground floor which was spacious and bright with a shower and a roll top bath available. The bed had a TV built into the base which was a nice touch. There was even a small bottle of sherry waiting for us in the room when we checked in. We had a good night's sleep there after a busy day out exploring the local area and nearby Bourton-on-the-Water.

A couple of things that let the stay down was the rain shower not working properly, although I still managed to have a shower, the water wasn't coming out as it should have been. The only other thing (which can't be helped) is the noise from the busy road the next morning. If you want a peaceful lie in, this isn't the property for you. It wasn't the end of the world, I still had a good night's sleep.

Overall, this is a charming property, located in a great spot in a beautiful village. It definitely won't be my last visit to Stow-on-the-Wold and when I return I will definitely look here first.
