Grade II* listed holiday home with off-street parking and an open-plan garden - Middle Gable
Middle Gable, The Old Hall is a little piece of Cotswold history, a beautiful holiday home sleeping five guests across two well-appointed bedrooms, with a family bathroom and ground floor shower room. Once part of a grand stone manor house, the main residence of the Lord of the Manor and one of the oldest residential buildings in Bourton-on-the-Water, it was later divided into individual cottages, with renovations in 1914 helping to create the picturesque row seen today. Centuries of character remain woven throughout the home, from stone mullion windows, exposed beams and a magnificent fireplace to the remarkable original dovecote built into its front façade, an exceptionally rare feature for a residential property earning it the prestigious Grade II* listed status. Traditional charm is thoughtfully balanced with contemporary styling and modern comforts, while outside a tranquil garden offers space for al fresco dining. A double garage and additional off-street parking are also provided, a much-needed bonus in the delightful village of Bourton-on-the-Water.

Location was wonderful. House was very historic with nice original decor. Due to heat, house was very hot due to no fans and limited windows that could open. We would definitely stay again during cooler temps.

This was an amazing place to stay for easy walking access to Bourton! Love the historical feel of the property and there is loads of space. The main bed is quite comfortable and really big. The stairs were also easy to navigate. Do be sure to check your spam folder for communication as we couldn't find it until the last minute, luckily the host was quite gracious. Thank you for a great stay!

Lovely location
The Middle Gable at Bourton on the Water is a one of a kind experience as your accomodations were built in the 1600's. The home is charming. The town is absolutely lovely.

Second stay
We travelled from Australia to the UK for Christmas for the second time once we knew we could again stay at Middle Gable.
It was as wonderful as ever - such a beautiful and unique place to stay,
So very close to everything that we needed in the village and a beautiful time of the year to be in Bourton on the Water.
Host Cate was very responsive and helpful.
Many thanks

The home was freezing cold. Had many radiators but all remotely controlled by the owner and set for 19 degrees (66 F), and Bourton was facing a bit of cold weather, late March, and owner was aware that the home was cold, but she stated that a 1600’s home can’t be heated up because it interferes with the old stone and timbers of the home. It would be a great place to stay from June through August. Great location in town. Quaint. Good amenities (other than it has a clothes washer but no clothes dryer, which is odd). Would stay there again, but only during the summer!!

A lovely stay in Bourton
Me & some friends had a wonderful stay at Middle Gable. Cat was helpful in ensuring we got checked-in OK and the neighbours were friendly. Even with five of us, the house was spacious and charming, to fit the vibe of the lovely Cotswolds town that you're almost in the middle of. A wonderful stay & a great place that we'd recommend.

Highly Recommend!
If you love gardens, historic buildings, perfect location and really nice and friendly neighbours, then this is the place for you. The location is just over a block from all amenities and yet the yard is very quiet and relaxing. We had our own garden space that we could relax in.

A great stay at Middle Gable
I spent three nights at Middle Gable cottage. It is perfectly situated in Bourton-On-The-Water. There are many places to eat within just a few minutes walk. A supermarket is also just a short distance away so it was possible to stock up on milk and food to settle into the cottage for the stay. The cottage is clean and comfortable. There is a lovely living room with a television to relax in at the end of the day, plus a very nice kitchen. There is the choice of either a shower and toilet downstairs, or a bathroom upstairs. It is in a quiet area and has a very pretty garden. The cottage dates back to 1650 and has so much character. There is underfloor heating in the living room so you are warm. If you don't have a car, I would advise the nearest train station is Moreton-On-The-Marsh then pre-book a taxi to the cottage (the train station doesn't have a taxi rank). Alternatively there is a bus service you can use. I would highly recommend booking Middle Gable to anyone considering it. It is a lovely cottage and made for an ideal visit to the area.

A fantastic historic house in a superb location
Middle Gable is a unique opportunity to stay in a very comfortable house which incredibly dates back to 1642. It is very well equipped, beautifully furnished and in a fantastic location in the heart of the Cotswolds. There are countless places to visit and many walks in the area.
We have stayed in many holiday cottages and this is one of the very best, full of character and history.
We will return and have already recommended it to our friends and family.

Wonderful!
A stunning property, perfect location near to everything. The house is full of character in a beautiful setting with a very pretty garden. Very cozy at night with the wood-burner, bed very comfortable (super-king which is what we are used to). Cate was very helpful and we couldn't have asked for a better choice for a weekend break, could have stayed longer. We plan to return!
