Four miles to the southwest of Stow-on-the-Wold is the village of Lower Slaughter in Gloucestershire, England's Cotswold region. The River Eye, which also flows through Upper Slaughter, is a slow-moving stream that is bridged by two footbridges, and the settlement is situated on both banks of it. A 19th-century water mill with an undershot waterwheel and a chimney for additional steam generation is located near the west end of the community. The village's river ford is located where it expands, and several little stone footbridges connect the two sides of the settlement. The charming St. Mary's church is located in Lower Slaughter. However, some of the arches between the nave and the south aisle date back to the 13th century. In contrast, the church of St. Peter's in Upper Slaughter is a mediaeval Norman church with portions dating back to the 12th century.

We had a minor issue that was promptly sorted out by the owner who couldnât have been more helpful. The beds are very comfortable and all the furnishings are of a high standard. Location is excellent for all the Cotswolds has to offer. Lovely setting too.

We had everything we needed and loved watching the horses in the fields outside. The things I thought could be better :- 1) The keybox which was the most complicated I've ever come across. 2) The toilet roll holder in the downstairs en-suite was loose. 3) A shower caddy would be good to save having to bend down to pick up bottles of shampoo etc. It is quite a small shower tray in an area which could easily have one full width, still that would be a long term project. 4) It took us 5 days to discover the light switch by the downstairs bedroom door to the living area lights. It's hidden by the curtains! By convention all switches should be on the door handle side not the hinge side. 5) We found the large glass table lamps took up a lot of the bedside table which was also small. We have phone chargers, Kindles and various medications etc so it was quite tight. 6) There are also a few snagging items such as missing grout from a tile in the en-suite and no radiator pipe covers to hide the holes in the tiles. It would also be nice to have perhaps some internal drawers in the kitchen units above and below the microwave to allow more food storage area. These units have a lot of wasted space. As it was we ate out most of the time so it didn't matter to us but might to a large family. Also the front door "Stable door" bolt between the lower and upper halves is quite loose causing the door to rattle and we thought on a number of occasions that somebody was knocking on the door. It was quite windy though. All the above are probably a consequence of my career in construction having to look for faults before handing over properties to clients. Overall it was a lovely place & I'd stay again without hesitation.

Only one thing comes to mind, is that the amount if flies when you open the gorgeous windows. We realise it is near horses and you get flies. But a portable fan would would make it a lot more comfortable on warm to hot days. Other than that, our stay was brilliant. So close to so many places, we were split. Thank you
