"The cottage was lovely and for us, well located."
The instructions for how to get there and the key information were very clear. The cottage was very clean and the bed was comfy. The only downside was the access to upstairs. The doorway was low and the stairs steep and curved. Would suit young, vertically challenged people. The owner had left some nice things to eat and a bottle of milk. Very thoughtful. We enjoyed our stay.

"Lovely cozy warm cottage, treats left were very welcome, ideal location for Stratford,Banbury,Compton Verny and as dog owners we felt we could relax due to the door on the stairs preventing the dog from exploring the upper floor."
Enclosed area for dog was ideal. Even though we are both over 60 we managed the quirky stairs quite easily, but might not be suitable for less agile persons. Every where was spotlessly clean, village store and pub very close and takeaway meals only 8 mins drive to collect. We would happily stay again!!!
Really pleased you all, doggy included obviously ! , had a happy and relaxing stay at The Cottage . Thank you so much for all your very positive feedback . It’s great to know you would like to return for another stay! Property Owner

"Newly refurbished cottage & it was a privilege to be the first guests to occupy it."
The owner made us feel very welcome and so did the other residents in the village. A perfect base & location for visiting Stratford-upon-Avon & The Cotswolds. Comfortable, modern & very, very clean. We will be back.
Thank you so much for your lovely feedback. I'm really pleased you both enjoyed your stay as my very FIRST guests! It will be wonderful to welcome you back at your next visit to The Cottage. Thanks for the 'top tips' feedback too, it's very helpful for me to get things just right! Property Owner
