The Stow Horse Fair is held twice a year, typically on the Thursday closest to 12th May and the Thursday closest to 24th October, however, we would recommend checking the exact date ahead of placing your booking. This is a traditional fair for gypsies and travelling people to meet up and trade which dates back to 1476 when its Charter was granted. Stow is very busy for a day or two before and after each fair, and a number of shops, pubs and restaurants are closed. Whilst many visitors enjoy the colour and vibrancy associated with the fairs, other visitors prefer to avoid Stow on these dates

Summary: Lovely old cottage with all the quirks you expect from an old property. Kitchen is well equipped and there is plenty of space for six to eat round the table comfortably. Living room is very comfortable with the fireplace making it cozy in winter. Bedrooms are comfortable but be warned do have low ceilings and beams, but that’s to be expected in a property of that age. Towels and linen are of high quality. Having a parking space is a great addition as the parking on the side road and out front can become very busy. The property is on a busy road and I was concerned by some reviews referring to this. The road did not bother us and we had the windows shut given the time of year but can understand the comments if in summer when windows need to be open. The house is generally clean on arrival but we did notice a few issues which we have reported back to the property manager. The house could do with a deep clean focusing on the areas not covered in a normal turn around clean. The property could also do with a repaint and general freshening up and the replacement of some items warn out, like glasses, mats etc. A good tidy of the garden and renewal of the lock on the gate is needed as we had to adjust the lock to ensure our dog did not get out. These items we noticed have been fed back to the property management and agency and acknowledged. Stay Cotswolds have been great to deal with and easy to reach even over the Christmas period. Overall we had a great stay and the property is ideally placed for all the areas of interest and within walking distance of all the amenities in Stow itself. We would recommend the property for a stay but feel the refresh and upgrades are required to continue to charge the premium rates currently expected.
