• "I have just stayed at the Nook for a week and it was absolutely perfect."

  The owners are very friendly and extremely accommodating. We wanted somewhere quiet and that is exactly what we got. We could hear owls at night and nothing else. The Cottage itself was was stocked with everything you could need. The bed and sofa were extremely comfortable and although we had our 3 dogs with us we had plenty of space. If you're looking for a huge mansion in a town centre then this isn't for you but if you want a quiet retreat where you can relax then the Nook is perfect. I would recommend the Nook to any couple wanting to get away from everything.

  Thank you feed back much appreciated Property Owner

• "It was a great little cottage and the owners were very friendly."

  only one or two things could have been a little better but these did not impact our stay very much. first a few tea bags coffee and coffee powder would have gone down well not a box or any thing just a few to settle in (shops are not close) on first impression the place was very neat and tidy but there was old food under the sofa that our dog found. but altogether we had a fabulous time

  Thank for your feedback. We are glad that you had a fabulous stay. I just wanted to let you know that I pull the sofa our after every visit and hoover. On this occasion there must have been a stray biscuit and I do apologise for this oversight. As our cottage is self catering, we don’t leave tea bags and many people bring their own. Thank you once again for your comments. We do hope to see you again in the future. Property Owner

  The lodge has all the facilities I needed and was warm, clean and comfortable. It is a very dog friendly place and there is a off lead walk just opposite the house. There are also numerous great local walks. The owners were so helpful and welcoming and have gone above and beyond to help me enjoy my stay. The welcome pack was also just such a lovely and generous touch. The whole place is immaculately kept and feels so well cared for. I also took trips to see Avebury, the Ridgeway, Waylands Smithy and West Kennet Long Barrow as well as Uffington White Horse, all a short drive from The Nook. Lovely stay and can’t wait to return!

• "Used the property whilst visiting my local in-laws."

  Lovely little ‘chalet’ type timber accommodation in a relaxing and welcoming setting. Perfect for 2 for a short break to explore the local countryside. Lovely surprise to be greeted with a bottle of wine and box of chocolates upon arrival. Kept in touch (via text) with ‘Jan’, and whilst she was never intrusive or overbearing at all, she readily answered any query I had. Enjoyed talking to the resident ponies ‘Dynamite’ and ‘Tyson’ each morning and it was lovely to be able to give them their banana ‘treat’ at the start of the day. Thanks to Jan and family.

  O thank you please come again Property Owner

• "A wonderful short mid-week break for myself and the dog."

  The Nook was lovely and clean on arrival, and as others have mentioned there was a little gift for me and the dog when we arrived. Check in was easy, instructions to arrive were simple to follow and we had no issues finding the property. The Nook is wonderfully comfy and has everything you need to enjoy the week. We will definitely return. There were walks we could do directly from the property, but there is also so much to explore nearby. We never drove more than 30 minutes to get somewhere and had a number of places to choose from for nice dog walks. Just remember to pack your wellies or walking boots for exploring the area.

  There are plenty of lovely places to discover in the nearby vicinity. It’s a quiet cottage with minimal road traffic, and the presence of farm animals such as ponies, ducts, and chickens make it a very unique experience. The cottage was in a very clean condition and contained all the basic items needed for self-catering. The owners were very friendly and helpful throughout our stay. Would highly recommend it to anyone looking for an enjoyable break – and it’s also perfect for a dog as there is a big green field nearby for some nice relaxing walks.

• "There were two serious trip hazards in the front of the property."

  One a step and two a slope, where a fence had been added and the trip hazards not removed. You said that there was a barbecue. It was not provided. Carpet looked tired and needed a clean. No vacuum cleaner or any cleaning materials or equipment to clean the property. Also it should be noted that I could not reach the owners on the numbers you made available. These need updating. Shame because it was an ideal location.

  Thank you for your feedback, the hazards have been looked at and have been deemed safe. they are shown within the photos. I'm sorry you feel that way with the carpet this is cleaned regularly with carpet cleaners. Property Owner

• "Absolutely loved stopping at the Nook, very relaxing place had everything we needed we received a lovely welcome gift on arrival thanks so much Janet."

  The only downfall was the mattress on the bed it was far to soft felt as though it hadn’t been turned regularly or was passed it, could do with a new one. Would definitely love to stop here again it is very quiet considering Janet and her husband have hens, duck and horses Janet and her husband are a lovely friendly couple. We visited loads of places whilst on holiday and the weather for April was gorgeous.

  Thank you for feedback. The owner has taken onboard your comments with the mattress. As a result, the owner has replaced with a brand new sprung foam mattress. Property Owner

  It is situated in the the stable yard located in the countryside, but close to civilisation. Although the ponies and geese are close by they caused no noise or problem to us guests.
