• "Lovely location."

  We were only there three nights, and out most of the time, so did not make contact with anyone onsite but cottage looked as described but on closer inspection requires a deep clean and upgrade/maintenance, for example toilets badly stained, broken lamp, wardrobe door bracket, stained sofa, fridge door was broken but we mangaed to tighten bracket, could not get upstairs bedroom heating to operate (even after reading manual), towels smelt unpleasant so not used, curatins ties not fixed to wall. Cottage needs a refresh but we would stay here again.

• "Excellent property, high end fixtures and fittings."

  Set in beautiful countryside. Only let down by heating system. We had only partial heating and no hot water for our last two days.

  Thank you for the feedback, Barry. Glad you enjoyed the property & location. Sadly, we are not immune from breakdowns & the boiler gave up. We subsequently had to cancel the guests due to arrive after your depature to allow us time to organise a replacement boiler. Hope to see you again. Martin Property Owner

• "Very Comfortable quiet & well equiped cottage."

  We did find some items in the cupboards needed to be cleaned before use. Not really a criticism but an observation we found that with both bedrooms being on suite if you had those who went to bed earlier or rose earlier there was no seperate W.C. to use to prevent dsiturbiing others.

• "A super property in a lovely quiet spot."

  The cottage was very clean with extremely high quality fixtures and fittings. The beds were very comfortable and the bedding and towels of good quality. There was also a selection of cleaning products and tea towels provided in the kitchen. Unfortunately one of the showers didn't work properly and in fact, both showers had a tendency to flood the bathrooms however, there was plenty of hot water. A welcome pack would have been helpful as we had no instructions as to what to do with the bedding and rubbish at the end of our stay. These few points are minor as overall we felt the cottage was of a very high standard and quality.

• "The property is slightly let down by a lack of maintenance and quality of cleaning."

  The shower drain was partially blocked so we needed to finish showers quickly to avoid flooding, and the basin was similarly slow draining and we had to clear it. Cleaning should be better, stains in the toilet and the toilet brush looked very unpleasant, also dust and cobwebs in many corners. Location and general facilities of the property are good, nice rural setting.

  Hello Andy. Many thanks for the review. I’m sorry you felt let down with the cleanliness. We have in the last week changed the company we use to clean our properties as we could see the downward tread on reviews. We hope that this will start to improve immediately. I shall have a look at the shower drains however had you of said at the time then this could have been solved without you needing to endure for the rest of your stay. I’m glad you like the setting and location of the cottage and perhaps we will meet again. Martin Property Owner

• "Woodmans cottage was in a brilliant location for exploring Wiltshire."

  On the whole the cottage was acceptable but it needs some TLC. The oven was dirty, the dishwasher drain was filthy and had broken glass in it, the external doors were very difficult to open and close and some bulbs were out in the main ceiling light which caused them to flicker. There was no information available from the owners for waste disposal etc.

• "It was our first time renting on part of a larger complex and we were not disappointed at how peaceful and quiet it was."

  The cottage itself is fairly spacious with good amenity space especially in the kitchen area. Whilst the cottage was nice it does feel in need of a little tlc. One of the shower had an issue which is easily fixed once the controls were reset but this happened a few times during our stay, the kitchen tap leaks and during the really heavy rain, there was a leak from the centre of the alcove in front of the log burner. It also feels in need of a bit of a deep clean particularly in the shower areas and parts where the cobwebs hide, however appreciate that these are difficult during busy periods. The cottage came with puzzles, dvds, books which are such great ideas for those wet days and the leaflets of local sights were really helpful. We were a little unsure of the recycling/bin/check out instructions as we couldn’t find anything to suggest what we needed to do but just based it on stays at other places. Overall we did really enjoy our stay at this cottage.

  Thank you Emily for your feedback. Glad you enjoyed the cottage and the environment in which we sit. Thank you also for your constructive feedback. The digital power showers are lovely however should anyone else be using another shower in the property or start running a tap etc, the water pressure will drop and risk burning the motor so it automatically turns itself off. I find it works best on the eco mode which regulates a comfortable pressure without the risk of losing pressure should anyone else in your party be using any other facilities. I’m glad you enjoyed the books and games etc on your wet days. One being exceptionally wet resulting in local road closures as a result. On days like these droplets will drip down the chimney flue. Recycling is clearly marked above the bins adjacent to the property as to what can or can’t be recycled. The property has had a full and busy summer with the added benefit of winning bronze on the Sykes ‘best in central England’ category. Therefore we’re hoping for a little break in order for a good spruce up soon now we are edging out of season. Property Owner

  Plenty of room for 4 adults. We did have a problem with an en suite shower but this was quickly resolved by Martin. We had eggs supplied by the chickens on the farm & they were delicious. Some areas could do with a bit of TLC eg. kitchen & en suites. Otherwise comfortable, warm and somewhere where we would be happy to return.

  Hi Lynn. Thanks for the review. Glad you all had a nice stay with us. It’s been a long and busy season so looking forward to getting back in there and touching up the areas that need a little bit of TLC. Hope to see you again. Martin. Property Owner

• "Comfort restriction: The chairs at the dining table have an unusually low seat."

  Kitchen cutlery with wooden handles are not suitable for the dishwasher. Lack of maintenance: When closed, the tap on the sink constantly drips onto the beautiful oak worktop. Upstairs bedroom: The closet door has 3 hinges but only 2 of them are fully assembled. The side entrance door to the free area is stuck and is therefore difficult to handle. High effort required.

• "Log burner had not been cleaned was full of old ash and there were no tools for using or cleaning, only a plastic brush set."

  There were lots of crumbs in the grill pan Bedroom upstairs needs a chair and mirror for drying hair. Settee looks very comfortable but for older people the depth of the seat and a very shallow height back made it difficult to sit in comfort.

  Hi Keith, Thank you for taking the time to review your stay. For me, the sofa is a real joy to spread out on and relax in front of the fire dozing away. I am sorry that for you it was not as inviting as it looks. The upstairs bedroom has a chase lounge with a light mirror in the adjacent ensuite. Sadly though, no traditional dressing table that I think you are alluding to however the down stairs bedroom has a full length mirror, chair and ample space in the deep window recesses to store personal items. I shall speak with housekeeping to make sure they check the grill pans. The log burners are cleaned on a regular basis although have to admit this isnt done on every change as we find the soot helps to keep the fire going as we do not like using coal. Hopefully we can meet again, I would suggest perhaps the Farm House for you next time. Slightly larger but has high back sofas, full length mirror in bedrooms with its own dressing and fabulas views across the farm. Property Owner

  The cottage was stylish and homely and the facilities went above our egg-speciations. We had a few settling in issues on our first night, but we were not egg-nored, and these were dealt with in egg-press time. Martin was such a good egg and after a day of egg-ploring Bath, we were welcomed home to a lit fire and some freshly laid organic eggs. Martin was a great host and cracked us up We are egg-cited to visit Woodmans cottage again as Martin has promised to cooked his famous scrambled eggs for us. So make no egg-scuse and book this egg-ceptional cottage, if you are looking for an egg-stravagent break. Sorry about the egg puns- I’m an egg-head

  The decor is very tasteful and of high quality. Although there was other accommodation on the farm we felt well isolated and thoroughly enjoyed a very restful stay. It was an ideal location to visit Bath and our particular favourite Lacock Abbey. The host Martin was a real gentleman and great host and yes the eggs were excellent.

  Very spacious compared to other cottages we have stayed in. A nice homely feel, not like a rental cottage. Probably a nice place to stay in the colder months too as there is underfloor heating in most rooms and a wood burner in the living room. There is electric car charging outside some of the residences (but unfortunately not outside ours). However the high speed Ionity charger is by the 24hr services just across the M4, less than 10 minutes drive. It’s also nice to know they look after their farm animals well and the organic chicken eggs are sold through Ocado - and we were given a dozen on arrival!

With a rich agenda of sights to see, places to visit, it was SO comforting to know that the cottage was there to welcome our weary return and provide such comfort each evening. The superb showers were a big hit! Martin Lewis, the owner, made us immediately feel at home; making himself available for information, guidance and any assistance we might have required.

We loved opening the curtains in the morning to see the cows from the rear of the cottage. Martin introduced himself on our first afternoon telling us about the cottage and local area and told us to call him if we needed anything. We had a fantastic time and would recommend this lovely cottage to our friends and family.

• "This is a lovely cottage, very tastefully decorated and furnished."

  All the fittings were of a high standard and the beds were very comfortable. We enjoyed our week's stay there and would have no hesitation in recommending it.

• "This is a fabulous cottage."

  Beautifully furnished with very comfortable beds and quality bed linen. Also both ensuites have fantastic showers. It's very peaceful and a lovely base for touring the Cotswolds and surrounding areas. We had a warm welcome from Martin and he checked in on us the next day to make sure we were happy with everything. There was a welcome tray with coffee, tea and biscuits and milk in the fridge. There was also a dozen organic eggs left for us which were delicious. Our hosts were also very kind as to leave an abundance of Easter eggs as we stayed over the Easter holidays. Greatly appreciated by our daughter and myself! This is somewhere I can see us staying time and time again. I can't recommend Woodmans Cottage enough.
