We had a great family reunion at Ivy Cottage and made lots of lasting memories. The cottage was very comfortable and the welcome pack of milk, bread etc and goodies for our dog was very much appreciated. Only negative comment would be the kitchen is not well equipped, a few more mugs and glasses would be good to safe washing up or running the dishwasher twice a day! Good location with some nice pubs nearby. Would definitely recommend for a great family holiday.

Ivy cottage is set in a beautiful area with several other cottages but they are positioned so that you have privacy and are not overlooked by the other cottages. We had 2 dogs with us and the gardens are very secure so we didn't have to worry about them escaping. The bedrooms all have ensuite and are all very well thought out The hot tub is wood fired and did take a while to heat up but was lovley. You should be aware that it is not temperature controlled so can get very hot. The surrounding area is beautiful with some lovely walks and pubs if you don't mind a long walk. Eiukd highly recommend and would definitely go back

On arriving at Ivy cottage you are blown away by the location - it is in a beautiful quiet spot - the cottage on entry is very well laid out and welcoming - however on closer inspection it was a little tired in places, the couches need replacing very grubby and no support especially the large cream one, throws and pillows on same need chucking as not very hygienic The whole cottage needs a good dusting on top of lights and areas shower heads etc. places that probably don’t need a regular dust but do need a good spring clean once in a while. We had a heatwave on our week and would of loved sun brolly - we found two round back but were covered in dirt and spiders and needed replacing or cleaning before use - and maybe a couple of sunbeds

I only gave a 3 for value has it was expensive for April. However I think this was because of the Heating which was on 24hrs per day and the place was really warm. The TV was a challenge. Overhaul excellant

We stayed at Ivy Cottage for 2 nights and honestly we couldn't fault it. From the moment we got there we were blown away. The property was finished to such a high standard and was really clean. There was even a welcome basket with treat waiting for us on arrival. Even though there we other properties on the farm we weren't over looked and felt very private. The gardens we well kept and the hot tub really made the stay. The garden was also enclosed so we could let the dog run free. It was much more than what we expected and we will defiantly be booking again.

This was our second stay and it did not dissapoint. The property is beautifully decorated, very comfortable, the beds and bedding are lovely. The kitchen has everything you could need and our Tesco delivery worked well. We loved the barn with table football and ping pong. The river is very close though due to flooding we couldn't quite get to it this time. Faringdon, only a few minutes away was lovely, especially the folly on the hill, Sadlers cafe and the craft emporium (lovely gifts etc, not crafting supplies). We also really enjoyed the White Horse (National Trust car park) and the village of Bampton where some of Downton Abbey was filmed. But best of all was coming back to the hot tub! It did take quite a bit of heating but it was well worth it! Thank you for our lovely stay, we hope to be back soon!
