    Easy to find and well located. Beautiful surroundings with the park within a 5 minute walk of the property. Very pretty, comfortable and clean. Host had left us some welcome goodies for us and house was warm and cosy when we arrived. The small patio outside was lovely and we managed to watch the full moon and stars in the evening with clear skies.

    I literally can't think of anything,

    We liked everything about this property, it was spacious,super clean with beautiful cozy interiors, and had everything home from home item you would need, the beds were really comfortable and it was only a very short walk to the town and restaurants and bars. Or a quick car ride to the retail park. The hosts were super hosts. Will be back to enjoy the lovely garden in the summertime and the surrounding parks.

    Parking was a bit of a problem and the roads were so narrow, we regretted not taking our smaller car.

    The house was perfectly located for the park run which my daughter was keen to introduce me to. Everything was clean and well thought out. We were particularly impressed with the welcome pack. Toni was a great host, making sure we had a parking permit and checking that our needs were met whilst we were there even though we were only staying 2 nights.

    Location was perfect for our festive shopping with some great restaurants. The house was extremely well presented and very welcoming boasting a few Christmas decorations along with a stocking (plus chocolates!). Toni and Andrew were very accommodating with my questions and the little extras were very much appreciated.

    The lily pad was just what we needed for my daughters graduation. We spent 2 nights there and was able to get together as a family and celebrate her special day. The house was immaculate ,cosy, everything we needed was there. The bedrooms were spacious and the decor was lovely. The beds were really comfortable and loads of wardrobe space. The host was really helpful by booking our car permit and helping us out on the day of departure. When we arrived, there was a welcome pack with what we needed. I would definitely recommend this house. It is a 5 minute walk into Cheltenham Town,which was great and a 2 minute walk to the lovely pittsville park.

    Toni & Andrew were extremely responsive to all our questions pre arrival and arranged the parking permits for us (great hosts). The house its self was great, beautifully clean, modern and homely. All the little extras they left, (milk, nibbles, toiletries) added a real nice touch. The house is in a great location for town and all the great restaurants & shops. It’s right next to the park, nice walk around the lake and coffee at the pump house. We highly recommend the Lilly Pad and would go back.

    If breakfast for the first morning had been provided, then it would have been amazing. Tea, coffee and milk were provided, but either cereal or bread and butter would have made it perfect.

    Great location as within walking distance of resteraunts, shops and town centre. No need for a car, so brilliant.

    We stayed three days and so wish we could have stayed longer to enjoy the amenities (the amazing tub!!)

    Perfect location to visit the Cotswolds by car. The host took care of the parking permit ahead of time so we didn't have to worry about a thing, found parking right in front of the house. The place is IMMACULATE, amazingly comfortable beds, super plush towels, essentials were provided (including milk and chocolates!), grocery store within walking distance to get breakfast and snack things. A beautiful garden to have aperitivo in, cozy blankets for chilly nights, iron and ironing board for our primping needs, beautiful furniture, mirrors, make up station in the master bedroom. Really quaint and beautiful building, we loved exploring the nooks and crannies, a laundry room to die for and brand new bathrooms that sparkled! The owner is a lovely, kind, communicative lady whom we feel we could have gone to for anything.

    Nothing to dislike, though if guests have mobility difficulties, will find the staircase a little steep - as they tend to be in terraced properties!

    Breakfast : not applicable. House was a short walk to the Brewery Quarter with lots of pubs, restaurants. Not far from the town. Very attractive home, lovely furnishings/decor, clean and lots of little touches ( fresh flowers, chocolates). We loved our stay, the beds were comfortable. Courtyard was great to sit out with eg a glass of wine (!) In the middle of large residential area of terraced houses, but absolutely no problem with parking directly outside. Some fabulous restaurants in the town (Montpelier especially). Great (clothes) shopping! Can't wait to return! Highly recommend.

    We were truly amazed by this place and wished we could have stayed longer in this sweet home.

    The Lily Pad accommodation is only a 9-minute walk away from the City Centre, bus stops, cafes, and a vast park that is only 3 mins away. This place offers a luxurious and beautifully furnished experience, reminiscent of white Lily flowers. Inside, the cozy sitting area welcomes you with snug and attractive blankets, cushions, and an electronic Hearth that provides warmth. The spacious dining area allows you to enjoy your meals with your family while watching TV. The accommodation also features a modern modular kitchen, washing machine, and dryer, fulfilling all your needs. Upon arrival, we were warmly welcomed with a thoughtful gesture—a sweet note informing us that fresh milk and delicious cookies were waiting for us in the fridge. The abundance of mirrors and glass furniture added a touch of elegance, giving us a royal treatment. A flight of stairs led us to the wonderful bedrooms and a spacious washroom with a large bathtub. Moreover, the beautifully maintained backyard provided a relaxing atmosphere, almost like a semi-meditation area.
