Withy Cottages

Very easy instructions to access the property. A door code, which prevents you from losing any keys or having to all come back at the same time. All the amenities you could want and more. The fire was lovely and kept us warm. Very clean and well presented. Breakfast was a lovely touch. Close to a pub.

The thick walls stop the wifi from working efficiently but it is a cottage so that would be expected and you shouldn't be there for the wi-fi! If you have a big car, you need to take it very slow when manoeuvring around the property as there is a drop down to some sort of brook, however it is well lit at night.

Fantastic place to stay, well equipped with super friendly hosts! We could not have asked for more. We were staying for my partner Jack’s 30th birthday, a group of 13 of us. The games room was the perfect meeting place and had everything you could have wanted for a weekend full of activities - pool table, ping pong and we brought our own board games. We also brought our own pizza oven, smoker and used the BBQ there to cook up a feast. There was enough space, fire wood and tables for us all. There’s a badminton court about a 5 minute walk away and we went on a beautiful walk nearby. The house and cottages are set in a lovely village. The attention to detail was remarkable with luxury linen, towels with bed chocolates, and a welcome food pack. It was clean, cosy and tastefully decorated. Thanks Mary, Sophie and kitties (everyone loved the cats getting involved) - you made Jack’s 30th birthday one to remember!

Nothing

Beautiful location, very clean, obviously put a lot of effort in to make guests comfortable (eggs, apple juice and cider were complimentary, along with milk, coffee and two baguettes). Beds extremely comfortable, toiletries really lovely. Outdoor table to have breakfast and dinner. Small garden area to enjoy. Really just a perfect stay.

We liked everything! Note that there are some steep stairs for those carrying large suitcases, and bedrooms are upstairs (for Withy cottage 1). Not at all a problem for us but something to note for accessibility reasons.

Very hospitable -had everything we needed for a comfortable stay. The additional games room space was fun and a great bonus. The property although a little off the beaten track actually was a good location to get about and not far from the local amenities which were a short drive away.

En suite was a little tight as had to wiggle to have room to close the door.

Host's were really lovely and let my family enter the property earlier as it was ready. There was 14 of us over 2 houses and the use of the games room was great as it allowed us to all eat together and have a big communal space. A super well stocked kitchen which made cooking very easy.

Mary and Sophie were fabulous hosts. Couldn't ask for more, had everything you needed at the cottage. We was on a work trip and was a nice relax and escape for when the team returned. Fresh eggs on arrival, and the best apple juice I have ever tasted, all locally sourced. We will definitely visit again

NOTHING IT WAS PERFECT

It is a wonderful self catered cottage in a nice quiet village. There is a family-friendly pub within walking distance. It's the perfect size for a small family. We plan to come back!

The automatic light outside was malfunctioning, making it impossible to see a little shed outside housing firewood, coal, and kindling needed to get a fire going as we arrived at night.

Quirky vintage caravan set in own lawned and tree lined area. Nature's paradise of peace and tranquility., interrupted only by joyful song birds.

The rusty steps to the van were a bit wobbly and problematic for my geriatric body and the toilet located through a gate a trek in the middle of the night.

It was very spacious, beautifully furnished, very well equipped. The hosts were lovely, very accommodating,. The games room was an added bonus which we loved and great bbq with seating area. Very dog friendly. Highly recommend

The cottage was very clean and the shower was excellent. Although the weather didn't allow for it, the patio area looked very inviting. Included in the price was a bottle of wine, cider, their own eggs and other goodies.

The site offers a number of properties in the same location. This can be a little confusing. We thought we'd booked number 1 Withy Cottage which had single beds, in fact we booked 2 Withy Cottage which had bunk beds. It would have been very helpful if the description of the property stated that the bathroom at 2 Withy Cottage was located downstairs and opens on to the kitchen. We both found the beds uncomfortable, which was a real shame.
