• "Absolutely loved my stay at the cottage!"

  I felt right at home as soon I got in. The cottage was cosy and private. It had plenty of books and boardgames to entertain on rainy days. Everthing was clean and the kitchen had everything you might need. Coffee pods and other breakfast supplies were a nice touch. The grounds around the cottage are beautiful. Jo, the host, is lovely and makes you feel really welcome. The location is convenient to visit nearby villages like Lacock and Malmesbury and explore the lovely countryside.

  Thank you for your lovely feedback with regards to your recent stay at Comedy Cottage. It's wonderful to hear you felt it was a home from home. It's located in amazing grounds and I'm so pleased to hear you enjoyed them. We hope to welcome you back again very soon. Kind regards Manor Cottages. Property Owner

  We greatly enjoyed our time with you. Look forward to the opportunity of booking with you again. If I had had room in the car we might have considered stealing your pony and perhaps Spartacus as well.

• "Beautiful cottage with a lot of space."

  Great kitchen but need some more pans and cups and soucers. Great WiFi Bed was small and for us too hard. Busy road in front of the house. And Railroad about 500 metres away. Lovely places in the surroundings Jo the owner is really nice and helpfull. So good place to stay in the Cotswolds

  Thank you for your feedback. We're glad you loved the cottage and surrounding areas. We would have provided additional kitchen equipment if contacted during your stay. The cottage is set far back from road and separated from the road by 4 acres of gardens. The railway is quite far away and trains are very rarely heard. We hope the issues mentioned didn't impact your stay and that we can welcome you again when you visit the Cotswolds. Best wishes Manor Cottages Property Owner

• "Delightful cottage and grounds, the latter enormous."

  Made very welcome. Would not hesitate to come again. We had decided to have a break from our four legged friend but had we brought him along, think, given the enormous garden that we would have had to keep him on the lead at all times as there is no formal enclosure.

  Thank you for taking the time to provide us with feedback on your stay at The Comedy. We are so glad to hear that both your and your dog enjoyed your time away! We hope that we can welcome you again one day in the future. Best wishes, Manor Cottages. Property Owner

  The little pony and the sheep in the paddock next door to the cottage were lovely. Comedy cottage is very pretty to look at and certainly it is pleasant to sit outside of an evening. Unfortunately,for us,we found comedy cottage uncomfortable to stay inside for the following reasons which could be rectified to make a more positive experience for guests. We found there was no privacy with the staff walking past frequently to and from the attached shed for gardening equipment,as the doors are so big it's very easy to see into the entire downstairs and we could not relax,yes we could shut the big barn doors but it was extremely hot and sunny.putting some obscuring film on the doors,or tinted glass,would make the downstairs more private and hopefully keep it cooler.Upstairs was more comfortable by far but up under the eaves it was uncomfortably hot and with only one fan for the whole place we had to keep moving it room to room.air conditioning would be great. Nowhere to sun bathe due to lack of privacy,as well as staff tending to shrubbery,there were staff cleaning out a van with a very loud radio,the dog being walked by,deliveries arriving outside the doors.To avoid this is to go out or sit and melt upstairs.I'm not sure what the answer is to the privacy and hopefully to many it won't matter if out all day . The welcome pack of bread butter,milk and biscuits were very welcome,thank you.I would advise on the listing to bring everything else which in other cottages are usually present,a few tea bags,salt,pepper,tissues,a couple of coffee sachets,tin foil etc,. We picked up the dog poo as always but didn't know where to put it,perhaps a small dog poo bin somewhere? We stripped the bed as requested(no pillow or duvet protection

  Thank you for taking the time to share your feedback. We have passed your comments onto the owner, who is disappointed that you didn’t mention some of the things at the time as she is always very happy to help and would like all her guests to have an enjoyable and comfortable stay. The property description does state that the cottage is situated within the grounds of the owner’s house with 4 acres available for guests to use. The gardener visits on a Monday and as there are no other staff working in the grounds, the owner can suggest a secluded spot to sunbathe. Unfortunately, the van was situated in a neighbouring property and the owner is sorry that you were disturbed and would happily have requested that they turn the radio down. Although the owner does walk down the drive on the way to taking her dog out for a walk, she always tries to skirt away from the cottage as far as possible, so as not to disturb guests. A supply of tea bags, salt and pepper are available in the property and the beds do have pillow and mattress protectors. We do hope you had the opportunity to visit the lovely areas surrounding the property. Best wishes Manor Cottages Property Owner

• "I was really impressed with the acommodation and had a really relaxing stay."

  However the directions given by you were somehow misleading. I drove around for ages trying to find the place. Your directions said to take Junction16 off the M4 motorway whereas if I had taken Junction 17 which my satnav told me too it would have been a lot easier. I drove around for about an hour trying to find the place, in the end my sister drove to help me eventually arrive at the Comedy. Many thanks for the milk, butter, bread and tea bags. Also your bed and furniture is very comfortable. We thoroughly enjoyed our stay.

  Thank you for your feedback, we are pleased that you enjoyed your stay. The directions have recently been changed due to road works happening in the area at present, we are sorry that this proved to be challenging, we are always on hand to help should you have called us.

• "The Comedy is a beautifully converted stable and has all necessary facilities - good heating, equipment etc tho an extra blanket was needed on the bed."

  However it should be mentioned that due to the low beams upstairs and steep staircase and small steps up and down (2 in the bathroom) not suitable for older people. We nearly had severe falls a few times and we both cracked our heads on the beams. We certainly wouldnt have booked it if we had known that.

  Thank you for taking the time to provide us with feedback on your stay. We are glad to hear that you enjoyed your time overall at The Comedy. We appreciate your comments regarding the steps to the bathroom, stairs and beams. We do show each of these in the properties listing and disclose that the steps to the shower should be taken with extra care. We hope that these did not leave a lasting impact on your stay and thank you once again for taking the time to provide us with your feedback. Best wishes, Manor Cottages. Property Owner

• "Lovely stay at the comedy, everything there that we required."

  Two points one please invest in a new bistro set for outside...extremely shabby and in need of repair. Also has been mentioned in a previous review the bathroom door doesn't shut so needs to be able to be fixed back some way. As this has been pointed out before i feel it should have been sorted by now. Otherwise had a wonderful time there very happy with everything else.

  Pleased to here you had a lovely stay. we appreciate your comments. There is an additional bistro set in the cupboard under the stairs which is mentioned in the welcome pack. The owners have arranged for the bathroom door to be fixed. Thank you for your feedback. Property Owner

  Only suggestion would be a better matress, it felt like an old spring base and we are on a really good matress at home. Matress comfort is pretty subjective, others may love it. Would recommend to others! Publish if you like...

• "The cottage was mainly as described, Full of character and well decorated and clean However, I am 6ft tall and found the bedroom too low (banged my head) Despite the description saying I wouldn’t."

  And the bed was small (Double). The place we rented the weekend before (costing about the same), provided super kings - which is what we have at home. The bathroom door off the bedroom could not be closed without banging the door loudly, thus waking the other partner during the night. Lastly, the property is next to a noisy scrap yard that started work at 8am

  Thank you very much for your feedback. I'm sorry you found the ceiling height troublesome, it does state in the description this bedroom is in the eaves. The bed is not small as it is a standard double bed. Apologies for the noise from outside, we have not had any reports of disturbance before. Manor Cottages Property Owner

• "The Comedy is a lovely cottage in a beautiful setting."

  A spacious well appointed kitchen/eating area downstairs and a comfortable lounge, bedroom and bathroom set in the eaves upstairs, with just the right amount of quirkiness to keep it interesting. A table and chairs outside the front door provide a great setting for a reflective drink at the days end. This is a great base to travel around the Southern Cotswolds, Somerset etc for sightseeing and long walks, but there doesn't seem to be much in the way of long local walks directly from the cottage. We both appreciated the relaxed friendliness of our hosts and the local people we bumped into on our rambles. We returned home after our week relaxed and ready to return to real life.

  Thank you for the lovely review on The Comedy. Property Owner
