  • "Lovely stay with my family at Tumbledown."

    Idyllic setting with beautiful garden and village. Footpaths from the door along very scenic trails. The cottage is perfect and had everything we needed. No issues with WiFi or phone signal as previous reviews mentioned. A very cosy retreat which we would happily return to.

    Thank you for this lovely feedback. We're delighted you and your family enjoyed your stay at Tumbledown and loved the location too. We hope to welcome you again soon. Best wishes Manor Cottages Property Owner

  • "Mostly very good."

    Totally understand everything not provided but any kitchen roll at all and a spare loo roll or two might have seemed generous. Some people may be bothered by the wifi not working in the whole house. Loved the beautiful garden and the mapsand guidebooks provided. Banana bread in the welcome pack was delicious.

    Thank you for your feedback. We are pleased that you enjoyed your stay at Tumbledown and loved the garden too. We apologise for the oversight regarding the consumables and will ensure it won’t happen again.The WiFi has been upgraded recently but unfortunately the position of the cottage and the thickness of the walls means that sometimes the reception can be affected. We would love to welcome you again. Best wishes Manor Cottages Property Owner

  • "We had a wonderful family Christmas vacation at Tumbledown."

    The house was perfect for us and an excellent location - very quiet but close to Broadway, Evesham, Chipping Campden etc. Lovely kitchen, dining room, sitting area. A few notes to the owner, we accidentally broke a wine glass, I removed a light bulb from a sconce in the dining room as it seems to have a short circuit, and there was a strong natural gas smell coming from the front garden area.

    Thank you for providing this feedback. We're delighted that you had such an enjoyable Christmas at Tumbledown. We have passed on your comments to the owner and hope that we can welcome you back again in the future. Best wishes Manor Cottages Property Owner

  • "We had a lovely weeks stay at Tumbledown and cottage was in the ideal place for visiting all the pretty villages in the Cotswold area."

    Cottage is comfortable and warm and well equipped. We received a lovely welcome pack which is a nice touch from the owners. Thank you for this. Our only complaint is the wifi in the living room is poor and keeps cutting out and because of this you couldn't watch any catch up tv, or if you need to work and send e-mails etc. Just something guests should be made aware of. Nice hotel across the road for a special drink or meal. Thank you.

    Thank you for sharing your feedback. We are so pleased that you enjoyed your comfortable stay and were appreciative of the welcome pack. We have asked the owner to investigate the WiFi. Thank you for the recommendation of the local hotel. Best wishes Manor Cottages Property Owner

  • "We had a great time."

    The cottage was very well fitted out with everything that you would require for a relaxing holiday. None of us wanted to leave! If there was one drawback it was the steps to the bedrooms. - we had a partially disabled person within our group who found this a small problem. Perhaps this could be stated in your information pack. Apart from this little hic-cup we all had a wonderful stay. Many thanks.

    Thank you for your email, with regards to your stay at Tumbledown. It's wonderful to hear you enjoyed your stay with us and thank you for the feedback. We hope to welcome you again in the future. Kind regards Manor Cottages. Property Owner

  • "A beautiful cottage, in a beautiful setting."

    The beds were very comfortable, as were the sofas and chairs, with everything you need in the kitchen. The whole place was spotlessly clean and the welcome pack was really nice. A new, bigger television would make it perfect. A few minutes after switching the television on, every time, coloured lines would appear on the screen, lasting about 15 minutes (had been put in the HK book previously and now by us). Also, we had trouble reading words on the screen, for programmes such as 'Pointless' - screen too small for such a big lounge!

    Thank you for taking the time to provide us with this feedback. We appreciate your comments regarding the Television and will pass these onto the owner. We hope that we can welcome you again one day in the future. Best wishes, Manor Cottages. Property Owner

    One small thing, you need a booster for your wifi, it only works properly in the kitchen or by front door because the walls are too thick.

  • "We had a wonderful stay at the cottage this week, it exceeded all of our expectations with great weather to match!"

    The welcome pack of homemade jam, lemon drizzle cake and bread was a lovely addition. The village of Broadway was fantastic and we had a lovely walk over the hills for a drink at local pub Crown and Trumpet. We also recommend a visit to the Gloucestershire Warwickshire Railway which was a step back in time with a steam train ride from Broadway to Cheltenham Racecourse. Many thanks and we hope to visit again!

  • "We had a wonderful relaxing stay in Tumbledown."

    The house was clean, in great condition and well equipped. The village is quiet and fields begin behind the garden. The locations is good for broadway (5 mins drive) and other charming villages and countryside walks. We would happily visit again. A couple of things to note: The Wifi was at times not reliable in the living room and main bedroom. It might be good to get a range extender. Mobile reception was poor inside the house (no doubt due to the thick stone walls) so I needed to wait outside when I was expecting a call. The TV showed grid lines across the screen for about 5-10 mins after switching on, as though it needed to warm up before working as normal.

    Thank you for taking the time to provide this review. We're glad you had a relaxing stay at Tumbledown and found it to be so well located. Thank you also for highlighting some issues - we have noted your comments regarding the Wifi and TV. Mobile reception in the Cotswolds can sometimes be erratic and we hope this didn't impact your stay. We would love to welcome you again. Manor Cottages Property Owner

Evesham 6.1 miles; Stow-on-the-Wold 11.5 miles; Tewkesbury 14.9 miles; Cheltenham 16.3 miles; Stratford-upon-Avon 15.4 miles; Oxford 41.4 miles

The charming village of Broadway, known as 'The Jewel of the Cotswolds', nestles beneath the Worcestershire hills. This quintessential English village, one of the most beautiful in the Cotswolds, offers a superb range of unique shops and boutiques, galleries and restaurants, but is also steeped in history with its origins dating back to Roman times. The world-renowned Lygon Arms has been popular for centuries, and now spa facilities can be enjoyed at pre-arranged times. Broadway serves as a great base for exploring the Cotswolds and surrounds with Shakespeare’s town of Stratford-upon-Avon, Cheltenham Spa and the historic town of Worcester within easy reach. With an abundance of National Trust properties, museums, beautiful walks and cycle trails, this really is a great place for a relaxing holiday, all year round.
