• "Strange muddy driveway lined with odd sticks making it narrow"

  We were very sorry to hear your stay at the Piggery wasn't up to your expectations. Weather conditions have proved difficult with the driveway, therefore, we have tried to keep cars off the grass verge to eliminate muddy tracks, hence, marker posts. Kind Regards Sue and Jim Bendall Property Owner

• "We were completely charmed by The Piggery."

  The cottage provided rustic comfort and the grounds are lovely, with the views over the tidal Severn adding an extra dimension. Everywhere was spotlessly clean and we appreciated the milk and cake greeting us on arrival.. i don't think we have ever spent a holiday in such a peaceful and private setting. My only minor issue was that the ensuite in the twin room is bijou and presented a challenge to mynsevere mobility problems, but it was good physiotherapy! If we are fit enough to be able to go on holiday next year, we will definitely return.

  Thank you for sharing your feedback. We are so pleased you enjoyed the location of the property and the lovely cake. A cup of tea and a slice of cake - just what you need when you arrive after a long journey. We would love to welcome you back again for another stay soon. Best wishes Manor Cottages. Property Owner

• "A lovely and quiet cottage."

  Large, well equipped kitchen and adequately sized living area for five people. The views are amazing, the reception warm and with two bathrooms you can't go wrong really. Only slight point of criticism is that the bed in the single bedroom is rock hard. Otherwise, the Piggery is a perfect getaway cottage.

  Thank you for your feedback. We're glad you enjoyed your stay and found the cottage to be well equipped and also loved the views. Best wishes Manor Cottages Property Owner

• "Many thanks for a wonderful stay at the Piggery, which is an absolute gem of a place."

  We loved the house and the location, which were perfect both for our 4-year-old and for us. The fact that the property is set in 360 degrees of beautiful garden, complete with baby rabbits and fabulous views down to the Severn, would have been enough. Throw in comfy beds and sofas, a well-appointed kitchen, plentiful hot water and natural light, and the welcoming and cosy feel of the house, and it was all just perfect (and we were extremely lucky with the weather, too). We will be back!

• "Their were wasps nests outside the property main doors, and bedroom doors, we could not open the windows when it was hot ."

  The TV was so small we had to pull it forward to we could see it. The pillows and beds were very uncomfortable and it is not suitable for anyone who is disabled. The shower needs updating , when using the shower the water went everywhere .

  Thank you for taking the time to feedback on your stay at The Piggery. On investigation, there were no wasps nests to be found at the property. There are many bees in the area and they do gravitate towards the flowers and the vines that grow around the cottage. They are very busy at this time of year! We're very sorry to hear that the TV was too small for you. Previous guests have not found the size of the TV to be an issue but we have taken note of your comments for future reference. We have had lots of guests with mobility issues stay over the years and many have returned year on year as they have found the property more than suited to their requirements. With regard to the shower, we will look into any adjustments, if needed, we realise shower curtains can cause issues. Again, we appreciate you leaving feedback on your stay and hope that you had a lovely break away. Property Owner

  The photos don't do it justice. We enjoyed watching the birds, rabbits and squirrels. It is also conveniently located to travel to a number of destinations. We visited Swansea, Cardiff, Bristol and Worcestershire. There are good pubs near by. We had good meals and service with a smile at the George Inn and The Rising Sun. Tesco was about 4 miles away. We could have done with slightly more cutlery and mugs.
