• "Easter cottage was perfect."

  A lovely stay in this spacious but cosy home in a pretty, quiet village. The heating system worked really well and was easy to use. The log burner was a lovely addition to the large living room. Plenty of hot water served the good quality bathrooms. The beds were super comfy and insured a good nights sleep by all. The Kitchen was well equipped and the welcome goodies a nice touch. We hope to return for a longer stay soon.

  Thank you for this lovely review. We're delighted you enjoyed your stay at Easter Cottage and loved the village too. We hope to welcome you again. Best wishes Manor Cottages Property Owner

• "The sofas in the lounge were uncomfortable."

  Instructions on how to use the belling Stove in the Kitchen would have been extremely useful, We found the cottage very well equipped, There were marks on the walls which could have been easily cleaned off and the hall floor could have been cleaner. The bedding and beds were very comfy and although it is a large cottage, the heating was easy to use and we found it very cosy. Outside the tables and chairs were covered in sticky red berries, so despite the weather being good we were unable to sit out, maybe covers would be an idea. We found that the berries were sticking to our shoes and as such were being carried into the Cottage which was awkward for us all. It says in the blurb that there is parking for one car, but anything bigger than a very small car would be impossible to fit into the drive. The gates on the drive need adjusting and maybe some W D forty on it. It would also have been good if there was somewhere to sit in the bedrooms to apply makeup and attend to your hair, even if it was a small shelf and you could sit on the bed, would be better than none at all.

  Thank you for taking the time to leave feedback following your stay and we are glad you found the property cosy and well equipped. We will take your suggestions regarding some of the other items you have mentioned to the owner. There are normally instruction manuals left in the property for the appliances so we are sorry if these were not visible or available during your stay. We will look to add these and will mention your comments regarding the clean to our housekeeping team. The property does have one parking space on the drive behind the gates and we will look at the adjustment/running of them, however with the property being in such a great, quiet location with ample off road parking right in front of the property guests often end up parking there and using the paved area for additional amenity space to enjoy. Kind Regards, Manor Cottages Property Owner

• "We had a great stay."

  Comfortable cottage and clean in a great location. The only point to note is that the 4th bedroom (annex) is completely separated from main building with access through kitchen door. Might be a bit tricky for groups of 2 families with small children. Overall, We had a great stay at the cottage.

  We are very pleased to hear you had such a great stay and found the cottage clean and comfortable. It is very well placed for exploring the Cotswolds. We will amend our property description slightly regarding the annexe access to ensure future guests are aware that it is link detached with its own entrance. Kind Regards, Manor Cottages Property Owner

• "Beautiful cottage in the most picture perfect village."

  Location in Cotswolds is excellent. The cottage was just brilliant for our family weekend, lots of space, great bedrooms and facilities downstairs. We found everything we needed. Would have been great to find a bbq - just a suggestion. Would highly recommend staying here, thank you very much

  Thank you for this lovely review. We're so glad that you and your family loved the cottage and the location too. We would love to welcome you again. Best wishes Manor Cottages Property Owner

• "The garden was very untidy we had to sweep all leaves up table is broken and chairs all need replacing so we couldn’t sit out ."

  Dissapointed on no washing up liquid or soap in bathroom very sparse on cleaning products we had to go out but all cleaning stuff so for the price we paid was a bit mean have stayed at better places

  Thank you for your feedback, and we are sorry that the garden furniture was not in a useable condition. This has now been removed and we are awaiting delivery of a new table and chairs very soon. Apologies for the lack of cleaning products, this was an oversight by the housekeeping team. we hope these didn't detract too much and you managed to enjoy your holiday. Best wishes Manor Cottages.

• "A lovely property with very comfortable beds and lots of space."

  Great wood burner as well. The Burrow was an excellent addition and very cosy. A lovely location and full of character. A couple of points re housekeeping, a few bulbs don’t work. There was no welcome washing up pack so we had to buy sponges and dishwasher tablets and washing pods. There was an empty suitcase and used bags of laundry left in the kitchen. Whilst this did not detract from our stay I would have expected these housekeeping issues to be addressed as this is not a low priced property. You also need a new outside table and chairs as they are wobbly. That said we had a fantastic time!

  Thank you for your feedback with regards to your stay at Easter Cottage. We are delighted to hear you enjoyed the cottage and it's set in a lovely area in the Cotswolds. We can only appolgise if the Houskeeper forgot to leave your cleaning pack and we will investigate why laundry was left at the House, prior to your arrival. The owner has purchased new garden furniture, which will be at the property as soon as it arrives. We hope to welcome you again in the future. Kind regards Manor Cottages. Property Owner

• "Lovely cottage, all rooms were well appointed and comfortable."

  We were a party of 8 and there was plenty of room for us all including the dog. 6 of us in the main building and 2 in the annexe which has its own fridge (which was most needed as a beer/drinks fridge as the kitchen fridge wasn’t big enough). I particularly liked the log burner on what was a cold and damp weekend. Also a nice touch was the welcome pack of essentials. A typical Cotswold setting with a very nice village pub where we had a lovely meal. The only (small) gripes were that upon arrival there were a a few dead insects which I thought should have been vacuumed up and no kitchen scales (I know a bit pathetic but I’m a keen cook and my sticky toffee pudding was a disaster). All in all a great weekend.

  Thank you for sharing your feedback. We are pleased that your party enjoyed your stay and made good use of the log burner and welcome pack. We have passed on your comments to our Housekeeping Team. Thank you for the recommendation of the village pub. Best wishes Manor Cottages Property Owner

• "A beautiful conversion of two cottages into one of a very high standard, spotlessly clean and well appointed."

  Six of us stayed in Easter Cottage and thoroughly enjoyed the facilities. Absolutely up to the standard we have come to expect from Sykes. We had some meals in several well known and guide recommended hostelries but the best meal and ambience was in walking distance at the "local" ~ The Rose & Crown. A couple of housekeeping matters ~ there would appear to be a wasps nest in the roof because a few "dozy" wasps fell into the end bedroom to the left going up the stairs. A few more coat hangers in the master bedroom would be appreciated and we couldn't find any black bags for the bedlinen. I think the woodshed must have ended up on the fire because we couldn't find it or any logs ! None of these minor matters detracted from our enjoyment of Easter Cottage.

  Thank you for your feedback with regards to your stay at Easter Cottage. It's wonderful to hear how much you enjoyed your stay, it's situated in a fabulous location, lots of great Restaurants to eat at and also places to visit. We will pass on your feedback with regards to the wasps nest and check this out and also look at adding a few extra hangers. We hope to welcome you back again very soon. Kind regards Manor Cottages.

  Excellent property but on-suite bathroom shower needs a bit of TLC , bird or rodent problem in the loft and outdoor furniture needs updating

  Thank you for taking the time to leave feedback, it's much appreciated and we are so pleased that you enjoyed your stay at Easter Cottage. From your feedback we investigated and can confirm there were no signs of any animal activity in the loft. Birds are nesting this time of year so its possible this could have been the route of the issue. The owner is looking to renew the garden furniture this year. We look forward to welcoming you back again. Best wishes Manor Cottages Property Owner

• "What a great property."

  Super clean and also a great space to feel like home for a short while. I think more sets of wine glasses and a few more utensils would be good. A few things to fix - shower hose in master bathroom bath - these should be checked. Otherwise the property is excellent and a lovely place to stay. Manor Cottages (property management) were also excellent and available.

  Thank you for taking the time to leave your feedback on Easter Cottage and the Manor Cottages property management. We are pleased to hear that you had a lovely stay, we wish you would have informed us during your stay regarding the shower hose, glasses and utensils as we would have resolved these immediately for you. We have now addressed these. We hope you visit one of our properties again soon. Manor Cottages Property Owner

• "Our stay at Easter Cottage was excellent."

  We thoroughly enjoyed the facilities and comfort provided in the property. Our children enjoyed the family games provided at the property. Definitely, we would love to come back again. Improvements required at the property are, Cutlery’s and tableware needs to be updated. Some of the utensils were not in a usable condition which was a little disappointment. It would be much appreciated, before change over, if you could ensure that property was professionally cleaned as advertised. Thanks again for the Easter hamper our kid’s enjoyed

  The cottage was equipped with everything we needed. The induction stove took some getting used to but we eventually got used to cooking on it. The local pub’s kitchen was being refurbished during our stay but the pub was open for drinks and was a few minutes walk from the cottage. Would definitely recommend the cottage and would return.

• "We appreciated that the cottage provided a few extras such as tea, milk, crisps and biscuits on arrival, and we were not expecting these."

  The cottage itself was beautifully furnished and was as described. One thing we did want to feedback, is that there wasn't anything in the information, about a venue of some description (or appeared to be) where they were hosting a wedding/celebration. I believe this was the large house next door and its gardens backed onto the cottage. We heard a lot of noise late into the night for 2 nights. This was ok for us but may be worth noting for anyone with young children or those who may have trouble sleeping! It was slightly unexpected given the remote location. It didn't however have any impact on our enjoyment.

  Many thanks for your feedback on Easter Cottage and we agree it is a beautiful house. We apologise that you were not informed prior to your stay regarding the celebration at a neighboring house. We always endeavor to make guests aware should we know in advance. Manor Cottages Property Owner

  The cottage itself was perfect; comfortable, beautifully designed and very well equipped. Lovely bathrooms and kitchen. Set in the village of Shilton, which happens to be so very pretty, this lovely house has been restored and designed in keeping with many of the houses you can see when walking about, they are all stunning!

• "Lovely house, sympathetically renovated, beautifully decorated and furnished."

  Our only problem was that none of the bedrooms had mirrors. With three females in the house needing to blow dry hair, this was a problem. However, within 3 hours of phone call to Manor Cottages a gentleman came to the door with a long mirror which we put on the landing and shared which was most appreciated by us ladies - thank you! That’s the only problem we encountered we loved this house and would like to thank the owners for letting us stay in their beautiful home. Great village pub (Rose and Crown) friendly locals and staff.
