This property is laid out over three floors and guests with young children should note that the property has steep staircases, particularly up to the second floor, and the front door opens directly onto the road outside. There are also ceilings throughout and low beams on the stairs up to the second floor, which could make it difficult to carry an infant up the stairs. Consequently, guests with young children and infants should carefully assess if the property is suitable for them 
Please note Heath Cottage is located on Wraggs Row, a small lane that runs parallel to the A429 (Fosse Way), just off Back Walls

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

Disliked: Amenities
beautiful cottage with a feeling of the cotswolds. we enjoyed it and liked having a kitchen and laundry. We were disappointed to go for the enire first day of our 3 days there without a WI-FI code. We received only 3 towels for 4 people, and only 1.25 rolls of toilet tissue. I understand that short term stay arrangements often expect customers will purchase hygiene items, but seriously! That is not enough toilet paper...There was no information about how to unlock the back door, so we could not access the outdoor area, use the grill or even locate the garbage bins. Really disappointing for the amount of money we paid. Terrible communication that could be fixed with a simple flyer or brochure on the table telling customers how to use the back door, what the WIFI code is, how to use the TV channels, turn on the radiators, etc.
