Thank you for the lovely feedback. Property Owner

"Very nice cottage close to the village & riverside, beds very comfortable & all kitchen amenities worked very well."
The heating was not sufficient for the time of year, we found it difficult to monitor & the newer looking radiators did not seem to be working? but maybe it was us ? apart from that we had a lovely stay & will definitely book again next October
We are really pleased you enjoyed the cottage, but so sorry that you had problems with the heating. We are always keen to make sure our guests have a lovely stay, so please always ring us if you have any issues. We would have popped straight down and got it toasty warm for you. Thank you so much for staying with us and look forward to seeing you again. Property Owner

"Gateway narrow difficult to park a larger vehicle."
Bushes on garden wall can scratch vehicle. Car covered in debris and bird mess fallimg from tree.
Thank for staying with us and for the feedback. We are sorry that you found the driveway difficult. Thanks for pointing out the bushes by the wall in the front. I'll make sure they are cut back hard. There is a lovely magnolia tree in the front garden and, as it is now autumn, it is shedding its leaves. The cottage is surrounded by countryside and I’m afraid birds are not something we can do a great deal about. It is an old cottage and the gateway is narrower than for a new house. In the past we have parked a variety of vehicles on the drive, including a tipper truck, but we come through the gateway with care. There is also lots of safe, unrestricted parking on the road directly outside the house - it's a quiet village so there is always plenty of parking available. Thanks again for staying with us.

"A beautiful cottage."
The welcome gift was very generous and practical. Comfy beds. Thank you. Very convenient location for a family visit in Nottingham. We explored Southall which was delightful. The Unicorn was only a few minutes walk and the food was good.
Thank you for your kind feedback. We’re so pleased that you enjoyed your stay. Property Owner

"We had a lovely stay in the cottage; it was very comfortable and had everything that we needed for our holiday."
The location is also really good and within easy reach of lots of great locations. Our two children also loved staying, especially enjoying the range of games and books in the evenings as well as some of the recommended day trips. Thank you very much!
Thank you so much for the lovely feedback. We’re so pleased you enjoyed it. Property Owner

"The cottage is simply beautiful."
All the rooms are decorated lovely and the pictures do not show actually how much space is in each room! The main living area is so homely. The location is fantastic also with many bars and restaurants catering to children.
Thank you so much for the lovely feedback Property Owner

"Very nice quiet and comfortable cottage well appointed with lovely private garden."

"We really enjoyed our stay here."
It was very clean and well maintained. There is a lovely garden out the back which is peaceful and private. It can be seen from the large window in the lounge which let in lots of light. Jane left us a nice welcome note and some provisions, and was quick to respond when I wanted to check something with her. There is a take away and some pubs in walking distance. If you have young children The Old Vol pub is s short drive away, and has a little village where the children can play. I would definitely stay at this property again and can recommend it as a great place to stay.
Thank you so much. We really appreciate the feedback. Property Owner

"My bed was too soft but apart from that everything was lovely I appreciated the welcome card"
Thanks for the feedback Sara. We are always keen to hear what our guests think and find ways to improve their stay. Both of the double beds have new, premium brand mattresses. They are both medium but one has an additional memory foam top for extra comfort. I am so sorry that you found it too soft. Many thanks again for staying with us. Property Owner

"I had a really nice and comfortable stay here."
The bedrooms were lovely and warm and the bedding very luxurious. The cottage is quiet and you can get a lovely sleep. There was an unforseen problem with a new washing machine, that had only just been plumbed in - The owner was very apologetic and took my washing - washed and dried in 8 hours and delivered back to my door! Nothing seems too much trouble for the owner. An excellent stay - thank you!
It was lovely to meet you. Thank you so much for the feedback Property Owner

"We had a really lovely stay, Jane, the owner was really lovely and she made us feel really welcomed and made sure we had everything we needed."
It was lovely to also arrive to a place where a lot of thought had put into what essentials we might need at the property. The owner, Jane, thought of everything and we could see she really went the extra mile to make sure we had everything we needed. The property is really spacious, it was really clean and comfortable, we all slept really well. The location was really quiet with no noise disturbance at all. Everything we had hoped for was met at this property and more! Thank you for everything we had an amazing stay!!
Thank you so much Sally. It was a pleasure to have you stay. Property Owner
