When we arrived the cottage (Pheasant) was warm and welcoming. The welcome basket was a really lovely touch. The attention to detail was excellent. The children really enjoyed the play park and swimming. All in all we had a most wonderful stay and already planning our next stay!

Lovely break in this fantastic cottage to celebrate Christmas and Mum’s 80th Birthday. Nice walks from the doorstep, and plenty of places to visit nearby. The cottages are in a lovely spot and thank you to our friendly and helpful hosts

Perfect as always. We will be back next year as we do every year. Cannot fault a thing, thank you for maintaining a high standard of accommodation.

We are relatively well travelled people, but at no time have I walked in to a place we are staying and can say ‘I would like to come back here’ before I even sat down. We are now at the end of our stay and yes we are coming back again. Next time with other family members. Amongst the attraction of our stay is the level of cleanliness, highly organised preparation, the warm and cosy swimming pool with its allocation per cottage, oh and not to forget to mention the great view of the White Horse of Kilburn from the sofa! Everything you need is here and be sure to read every page in the brown folder to discover the things that don’t jump out at you. The hosts really have thought of everything. THANK YOU, don’t want to go home
