Lovely fresh bread from bakers next door and milk, jam, tea and coffee supplied.
Quite location
Well decorated. Comfy bed and great shower.
Misleading as the summer house was described as holiday home. I would not have booked this if I had known.
It smelt very musty too.
Sign on roadside for location could’ve been better marked - would never have found it in the dark.

very well equipped small cottage, very clean and just the right amount of equipment to enable self catering. Very friendly rescue cats (beware they do visit the cottage)
nothing really, perhaps needs a fan for the hot weather

Cosy, comfortable cottage, with a lovely garden area. Out in the countryside but a short drive away from Sherbourne and other areas. Tasty breakfast included, nice shower, super comfy bed and overall a lovely cottage. Hosts were very helpful too. Parking right outside the cottage. Would definitely recommend. 🙂

very well thought through, had all we needed
It was cold when we arrived and took a while to heat up, we acknowledged that the weather had changed, but it did reduce our overall rating of the property.

Wifi hit and miss but done me a favour as was able to turnnoff from work .
5.0 / 10.0
Location was peaceful, cottage snug, perhaps too snug. Lots of sideways walking to avoid hitting our heads on a cupboad by the bedroom door as we went in and out to the bathroom. Shower no power. No interaction with the owners whatsover, not been anywhere before where the hosts have not welcomed us or checked in during the stay. The breakfast was poor. Two adults for two mornings, breakfast provided in the fridge was:- one miniature jar of jam decanted from a larger, one miniature jar of marmalade decanted from a larger, only TWO eggs that we didn't want to fight over so we left them, a piece of butter cut off a larger block in a tiny bowl and a small cob loaf (not enough butter or spreads provided to make use of this). I chose the accommodation over alternatives as "breakfast was provided" however I do not feel that this promise was met. A tin of beans, an extra two eggs and a pack of bacon surely would not have been too expensive to provide a couple for two weekend breakfasts? Bottom line, I would not recommend this to a friend.
Sofa uncomfortable. Breakfast was not adequately provided.

Excellent. The bread was delicious.
A footstool for the living room would have been very welcome but a minor quibble.

Nice clean, peaceful accommodation and just big enough for a couple. Everything we needed was provided and attention to detail was very good.
Nothing really, all very nice.

Breakfast scrummy. Everything we needed provided and direction to a lovely bakery given for our convenience.
Hosts very friendly and informative about local amenities and places in the surrounding area to visit.
The accommodation and gardens were lovely and the whole environment so relaxing.
The accommodation is in a rural setting and you need a car so it’s important that customers are fully aware of that.
However we have nothing we didn’t like.

Gardens, bedding, lovely duvet, breakfast left in the cottage for the first morning (in fact there was enough cereal for our total stay). We are provided with water, orange juice, butter, bread, yoghurt, very local eggs, jam, marmalade, Kitkat etc. We bought extra bread and croissants from the bakery next door, which is well worth a visit.

The location was ideal for exploring and the well equipped cottage which was full of character looked out onto beautiful gardens. The bed was so comfortable and the breakfast provided was lovely with so much choice. All in all a fantastic break and we will definitely be going back!
