  • "A lovely secluded country retreat to get away from the hustle and bustle of modern life ."

    The owner , Matilda is very friendly and ready to help if needs be . The cottage is comfortable and clean and was well equipped with the benefit of the generous welcome pack . The setting is better than expected and once you have negotiated the unmade lane to the property you arrive at this little oasis to be met by Matilda and her menagerie it is worth the drive up the rough lane . It made a pleasant change to drive around the traffic free lanes and side roads and visit some of the lovely towns and villages in the area . Our favourite places to visit being Clee Hill and Clee Summit ,Bewdley , Leominster ,Ludlow ,Stourport and Worcester . The nearby Safari Park is well worth a visit . Would recommend to anyone looking for a quiet get away from it all holiday rental .
