"Nice spacious apartment very quiet position."
Good pub 10 minutes walk but no street lights so be aware if returning late. Homemade marmalade and milk supplied by owner. Parking a bit hit and miss at times. Apartment could do with more cupboard space in kitchen.
-
"The apartment is a perfect base for exploring the area."
It was bright and airy and a peaceful place to relax in an evening. As others have mentioned the WiFi is very weak, in fact we struggled to get it to work at all (maybe some sort of booster is needed as the router must be sited out of range). Whilst the bedroom and bathroom were very clean the kitchen/lounge would have benefit from a bit more TLC as touch points seemed grubby e.g. kettle handle, fridge/freezer doors, and there were cobwebs around windows. A dishwasher would have been nice even just for the two of us, and its a shame the lovely original fireplace isn't displayed rather than masked by an electric fire. Despite the above we would still consider staying here again if visiting this area.

"Excellent stay everything you needed was in the flat ."
It was very clean and tidy . Jackie was a great host and was there when we turned up to explain everything . Great walks and lovely countryside. Highly recommend.
-
"Had a fantastic time at Frampton, apartment was clean and tidy and had everything I needed."
Great place for a spot of cycling, easy access to the canal and from there to Slimbrige or the other way for a nice run out with a sneaky pub lunch on the side of the Severn. The only slight niggle was the wifi strength was rather week, didn't work outside the kitchen/living room area but didn't detract from an overall brilliant holiday. Would go back.

"Very nice place and the property owner was lovely."
Personally a teapot would have been great but that did not deter from the place itself. Place to park the car and lovely local walks and general amenities.
-
"Cosy, comfortable, spotless, everything you might need for a pleasant stay."
The owner very helpful with any queries we had. Very nice lady. Will stay here again in the not too distant future.
-
"Superb apartment we could not have asked for more, everyone was so helpful and friendly it was a joy to visit and we look forward to returning."
The location is ideal for our visit to family and to explore around Frampton on Severn, our host could not have been better and the flat facilities were perfect. Many thanks

"The homemade marmalade was a lovely touch and was delicious."
Everything that we needed in this tastefully decorated flat, especially the extra large bathroom. The landlady Jackie was on hand and very helpful. A great location, in this beautiful village, right on the Green, next to the Gloucester and Sharpness Canal and within walking distance from the Slimbridge WWT.

"Lovely relaxing stay in a picture perfect English village."
Really lucky with the weather, and very welcoming host. Two great pubs in the village- a warm welcome awaits at both. Couldn’t have wished for more.
-
"Good space, Kitchen pans and dishes in good condition."
Really nice village. Comfortable bed. Friendly owner.
-
"Lovely little apartment in peaceful village location."
Owner Jackie was a delight and her home made jams and pickles delicious. Will certainly return when we are able.

"Had a lovely week in Wards Court 1."
The flat was pretty much as described, clean and well equipped, with speedy wifi. Not sure I'd describe the bathroom as luxurious but it was perfectly fine with good shower pressure. It was a bit chilly when we arrived but that was only because the windows had been opened for Covid airing - it soon warmed up and was very cosy. Enough kitchen equipment for a week's stay, solid plate hobs a bit of a nostalgic challenge, but I knew that before booking :-) Location is excellent. Frampton is a delightful village and Wards Court is right on the Green, with lovely walks from the door. Parking wasn't a problem, we managed to get a nearby space every day. The shop is a 5 minute walk, very well stocked for a village, and is open every day until 7pm, very handy. Can recommend Ley Bistro for breakfast and the Bell for lunch, didn't try the 3 Horseshoes but heard good things about their 3shu pie. Maybe next time.

"With Covid rules and regulations we think the owner had managed very well bearing in mind this is an old property ."
However, Mrs Philips was very friendly and helpful as were all local residents.
-
"Beautifully clean and comfortable accommodation in a location that is a delight to walk."
Very friendly and helpful host.
-
"This was a holiday for fishing."
Mrs Phillips is such a lovely lady and was always on hand if we needed anything. Her homemade jams and chutneys are a delicacy not to be missed, Bed was lovely and comfortable the flat was very clean and tidy. The only thing lacking was the weather but cannot expect anyone to control that. The 3shu pie at the pub is something every visitor should try along with the rhubarb cider. All in all a wonderful experience which made up for the fishing

"The bathroom is very big and could maybe benefit from a heated towel rail?"
-
"A comfortable apartment in a beautiful canal side village with plenty of amenities."
Perfectly situated for visiting the surrounding area.
-
"We will hopefully have a lot more breaks at this beautiful tranquil apartment"
-
"Wards Court 1 is set in a lovely quiet little village which is ideal as a base to visit the area."
It has one Shop which isn't overly stocked so you will need to travel further for a Supermarket, it also has a lovely Coffee Shop and 2 pubs within walking distance. The nearer pub the Three Horseshoes is a must for it's Beer & the Three Shu Pie, but it is also a bit more basic and local than the Bell. The Bell is a more popular Family Pub partly due to it's size and location, but both are worth a visit. As for the Coffee Shop next to Wards Court I'd recommend the Frampton Feast if your prefer not to cook.

-
"We really enjoyed our stay in Frampton on Severn."
Wards Court 1 is a lovely place. Well equiped for two persons and the owner, Jackie, is a lovely woman, who makes you feel very welcome.
-
"Beautiful area and well appointed flat in a lovely village."
Easy access to Bristol, Cheltenham, Gloucester and all surrounding areas.
-
"The flat was a good base for our days out to Gloucester, Bristol and Stroud as well as local walks along the canal."
The bed was very comfortable and the flat warm even in the cold spell we experienced on our week away. There was usually space to park outside. The local shop was a useful resource being a short walk from the flat. We loved the jam made by the owner and left for us to try. We bought more from the shop. It is a beautiful village; we needed more time to explore but left a little early to avoid the severe weather at the end of February.
