    Dear John and Jenny, ​I wanted to send a quick note to say that my stay at The Old School was absolutely fantastic. The house is straight out of a fairy tale—an authentic Cotswold cottage that is completely worth every moment—and its location made accessing all the local villages wonderfully convenient. Your warmth and kindness made the experience truly special, and I would without a doubt love to stay with you again in the future. P.D.: Fantastic breakfast.

    Lovely room. Peaceful and gorgeous place.

    The location was great. Slap bang in the middle of Didly Squat and a pub we had booked into on the Friday. John was really helpful. Gave us advice about the local area.

    Nothing really. I was surprised at first that it was John and Jenny’s actual house. But the room we had was lovely that we had round the back.
