Perfect location for visiting the Cotswolds
The Nest is very suitable for only two persons and the location is perfect for visiting all the beautiful villages of the Cotswolds, We loved the quiet and nice place and all the useful amenities. Nearby you can start interesting walks through the beautiful countryside using a big variety of footpaths !

Peaceful Robins Nest
Cosy, peaceful property. Perfect location for exploring Cotswolds villages and attractions. Well equipped kitchen area but a tea towel and oven gloves would be a great addition.
A lovely place for a base for sleeping at night and going out all day.

Beautiful location
The Nest is beautifully located , advertised as dog friendly but due to the owners chickens and cats were unable to allow our dog off the lead which was a bit of a nuisance. The sloping ceilings within the property made for a very cramped feel . However well furnished and pretty. Well equipped. Directly facing owners property so did nt feel private . But still enjoyed our week.

The perfect cosy nest!
This was our second visit to this perfect little cosy nest. Excellent location for touring the Cotswolds. Peaceful, tranquil and relaxing. Very clean and so well equipped.. Such a cosy little nest to retreat to after a day out. Our recommendations from last year were acted on, and this place is now perfect! We look forward to returning again in the future.

Beautiful location
Stayed for long weekend to attend a wedding on Sunday. Just needed somewhere to sleep as we were intending to eat out but needed somewhere that took a dog. This place was ideal. We are not very tall so larger people would struggle with its compactness and low ceilings. But for us it worked just fine. Very clean, warm and cosy. We had a lovely stay

Lovely part of the world.
We throughly enjoyed our stay in the cotswolds. The Nest at Robins Roost is in a lovely setting and had all we needed for our stay. The property was clean but slightly let down by a number of cobwebs around the lights. The bed is very comfy, however it squeaks heavily. An easy fix with an Allan key. On our last night it was very windy. Not sure if it was the tree hitting the building or something rattling in the car port underneath the property. What ever it was it was enough to cause a sleepless night. I'm not one to complain and would stay again. A few minor easy fixes needed.

Great as a base for short stay
Check in at 5pm meant arriving in the dark, location sent via What 3 Words, which we do not use and therefore couldn’t find The Nest. Following a telephone call and guidance we managed to find it, signage needs improving as impossible to see In the dark
Great little place to stay to explore the locality. Wouldn’t want to stay longer than a weekend as sofa not comfortable for relaxing.
lovely and clean, all the essentials provided, could do with a large wall mirror near a plug for drying hair etc. Heating was a bit random and unable to change it due to needing a passcode, not sure if timer had been reset when clocks went back as radiators were red hot at 04:00 hrs but cold by the time we got up- 06:30 hours, evening heating didn’t come until 18:00hrs, so chilly when we would come back in the afternoon.
The Cotswolds is beautiful and we had no trouble finding cosy pubs for evening meals

Perfect location - temper expectations
The Nest is a really cozy get-away stay. The website describes very well what to expect with the sloping ceiling and all. My partner is 189 CM long and because we knew what to expect it was our choice to stay here. That's why we also expected a kingsize bed. But the truth is that we both had issues fitting into the bed. The actual measurements of the bed is 140cm by 200 but the matrass is only 130 by 200 (and the bed shrieks when you move just an inch) . With a duvet that is has exactly the same measurements, 130 by 200 cm, try to fit under that together without poking an eye out.
The cleanliness can be worked on, there was a bit dust here and there but overall good enough.
Everything else was exactly as described and shown on the website.
The kitchen has everything you can think of and I loved it! because of it we cooked ourselves during our stay (a week).
The owners are really nice and we enjoyed walking around on the premises to see their lovely natural pond and their chicken who roamed around there too.

Wifi was a big issue
The room was ok and the kitchen is well equipped. However there was no WIFI or mobile network throughout our stay. There was no advanced notice even though the prob had been persistent for while. We had to drive to somewhere to get signal just to make calls. This was terrible.
Also the check In is 5pm instead of the normal 3pm. This has caused inconvenience especially when trying to find this location after dark.
The door lock was problematic. We couldn’t open the door on arrival and approached the host for help who wasn’t pleased. The host also left reminders such as “turn off the light when you go out etc”. We felt like we were being watched and lectured. Not a good experience. Shame

Lovely time in the Cotswolds
Lovely place in a great location. Only had a couple of issues the first being that there was no wifi for the first 2 days, which wasn’t the owners fault however when there is also no phone signal did cause a couple of issues. However the main issue was finding 2 used tissues and other rubbish under the bed, well my puppy found them which was not good. Maybe a little bit more attention to detail on the cleaning front. Apart from that’s everything was excellent.

Review of our stay at The Nest
A great little 'nest' to retreat to at the end of the day. Very clean and tidy. Ideal location for touring the Cotswolds. Very cosy. The bed is memory foam and although it's very comfy it's not ideal for those who get very hot at night. Extremely well equipped overall, everything we needed was there. Only drawback is that the sofa is not very comfy. Property has low ceilings as you are in the roof space which can provide a height issue, but we found it very quirky. Directions and instructions given were excellent and accurate. Overall we had a fantastic stay, and will be returning.

Cosy conversion
We had a lovely couple of nights at The Nest, a perfect name for this cosy little conversion for two. Nicely presented and welcoming hosts, the freshly laid eggs from the bantam hens were delicious. I would have happily extended the stay. It got a bit toasty (but we were in a heatwave) and the atelier attic-style sloping roof might not be great for the giants amongst us. As another reviewer mentioned, the sofa is extraordinarily uncomfortable (but didn't notice it so much after a bottle of wine ) and a mirror in the bedroom would be helpful. Would definitely recommend and stay again.
