  Its easy to park as it is on the main village road and there are a lot of places to visit and eat out. only thing I found a bit tiring was all the steps as the cottage is on several levels but I am 80!!! I would recommend it to anyone

  It’s just an amazing cottage! It has everything you need for a pleasant stay at the lovely English countryside.The garden is worth mentioning, it’s such a beautiful place to relax. Bath, Salisbury and Stonehenge are nearby. There is a nice pub at walking distance, where you can have a nice lunch or diner. So it’s a perfect place for a perfect holiday.

• "A lovely place to stay."

  Our only proviso (not the fault of the cottage!) is that you really need a car, or bicycles, or some form of transport, because it is a fair walk to get anywhere. We came by train and because it rained, it was difficult to get about. Also, the local pub has suddenly closed too! But the cottage and the grounds are absolutely beautiful, and it has space for six people. Judith was quick to reply to any text messages and was very helpful.

  Thank you for sharing your feedback. The cottage is situated in the small village of Corton, which is shown on the location map. We are pleased that you loved the cottage and its garden. Best wishes Manor Cottages Property Owner

• "What a lovely stay."

  Foleys cottage was everything we had hoped for. It had rustic charm as well as comfort. The cottage was well maintained and the facilities were excellent. The best part for us was the Daren which was truly and exceptionally pretty. It had secret pathways and lots to explore. The 2nd double room was a bit too dim with very little natural light and the 3rd bedroom was a little musty - but nothing a good airing didn’t fix. It also became very cool in the evenings so relied on the wood fire more than expected. The paper and kindling provided was a little damp to light but we bought more kindling and papers and it made a great difference. Nothing like sitting in front of a lovely real fire, when we don’t have one at home. We had a lovely week, visiting Frome, Bath, Stourhead and lovely walks around the cottage to Boyton, Upper Lovell and Heytesbury. I would recommend Foleys.

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

  it was everything we hoped for and the information provided about the property was accurate. It exceeded our expectations and has completely restored my faith when booking and staying in holiday homes. Our last experience with a different (well known) company was a great disappointment and was nothing like what was advertised. I can't thank you enough for restoring our faith and providing us with the enjoyable and lovely experience we had at Foley's.

• "What a gorgeous cottage, set in well cared for and beautiful gardens."

  The cottage was not without its quirks, but that all fed into the experience of staying in an old cottage. If you want something super modern, this is not the place for you, but we really enjoyed the homely feel of this well loved cottage. And the open fire was a treat. :) Jude was also lovely, and extremely helpful with all our requests and info on the local area, which really helped us on our stay in Wiltshire. The parking is in the process of being renovated, which Jude did warn us about, but it was perfectly adequate for our stay. The closest pub, The Dove, which is only a minute's walk away, is ok. It doesn't have a lot of atmosphere and I think the food is overpriced, but it is very convenient and the staff are friendly. The Prince Leopold in the next village, on the other hand, is well worth a visit, as is The Bath Arms near Longleat. Both of these last two were great, with excellent food quality, and much more worth the price. We took the advice of going to Frome, Stourhead and Lacock during our stay, all of which did not disappoint. Thank you for a wonderful stay in your beautiful cottage, Jude.

• "Our stay at Foley's Cottage was fantastic!"

  Initial communications with Judith were warm and welcoming and any queries we had throughout our stay were promptly attended to and resolved. The property is situated in a lovely area with beautiful tiered gardens at the rear. The summer house was a great addition with a small fridge to keep drinks cool, and shelter for respite from the sun. The cottage had everything we needed for the week and we even managed to have a fire on one of the cooler evenings, that said, the central heating is excellent so the fire was more for atmosphere and marshmallows ;) The only issue we had was with the address that Sykes listed on their website and in their communications, which was incorrect, however Judith's directions were spot on and once I fed this back to her she was going to contact Sykes to have it rectified. 100% would love to stay again!

• "Foley's Cottage is a beautiful, peaceful location."

  It is so picturesque and in the perfect location. Set on its own, but only a short walk to the local hostelry "The Dove Inn". Very easy to get to and only a short drive to many local attractions, such as Stonehenge, Salisbury, The New Forest and Bournemouth, to mention just a few. It is also perfect for a walk in the countryside too. After a pleasant day out, it's the perfect place to return to and relax, either in the beautiful gardens or the summer house. The enclosed yard is perfect for a relaxing meal outdoors in the fresh air, or under the cover of the very large umbrella, if the weather isn't too favourable. We had a wonderful, relaxing stay, and can't wait to return again. There was a lovely welcome hamper to greet us when we arrived. I would thoroughly recommend a stay here, it's the perfect location for couples, families, or a group of friends. I guarantee you won't regret a stay here.

• "The beds really comfortable, the sofas also comfortable, the top bedroom and the garden room were delightful."

  Unfortunately it was let down by the following, Both the lounge and master bedroom were extremely dark, we had to have the lights on all the time but even then they were still dark. A large part of the garden was very uncared for. The parking area was a joke. If two cars were able park there it would have been a miracle. As well as being quite steep the parking area also dipped to one side. Unpacking and packing the top box was extremely challenging. A note was left informing us that the main shower was not working which meant six people had to use a very small ground floor shower, I think that might warrant a some sort of refund. Whether you publish this feedback I leave to you, but I feel that the description was not quite accurate. But I take my hat off to the photographer for making it look so much better than it was.

  We thoroughly enjoyed choosing different settings to have morning coffee, a meal, afternoon cheese & wine or evening cocktail. There are just so many fabulous options.

We certainly hope to return to Foley’s Cottage again in the future! Thank you!

• "The very definition of "quaint", Foley's cottage looks like your typical old-fashioned, English home on the outside: small and charming (and thatched!"

  ), but inside was big enough for our family of 4 kids and 2 adults to come "home" to and relax next to a cozy fire after a tiring day of exploring the countryside. Kids (ages 6, 8, 9 and 11) loved exploring, roaming and running around the backyard playing all kinds of games. Going further afield, its location was ideally situated for day trips out to Bath, Avebury and Salisbury. Would not hesitate to recommend Foley's Cottage to friends and family ... but only if I don't book the place again first!
