We really enjoyed our stay at Summer Hayes. It was comfortable and we loved the exposed stone and the outdoor space. It's a perfect location to explore the northern Cotswolds. A nice pub we could walk to, walk to Broadway if we wanted, the public footpaths were everywhere! It took us a little while to get used to the locking mechanism on the front door. Also please note, the washer is also the dryer and it is very small and takes a really long time to complete a load. It was not practical for a family of 4. And too, the dishwasher does not clean the dishes, so we did them all by hand.

Overall we enjoyed our stay at the cottage, but we thought the cottage was a little ‘tired’! It could do with a little attention and a good clean. Generally the cleanliness was ok but could have been better. The back garden was very unkept, in need of attention. One evening we did get chance to sit out on the sun but weeds screamed at us to tidy them up, which we ended up doing. The cottage is in a great location for touring Broadway (just about walking distance) and the surrounding area.

We had a wonderful weekend staying at Summer Hayes. It was perfect for meeting up with friends and plenty of walks nearby. Childswickham has a lovely pub and the food was excellent. Cottage was clean and we were lucky enough to have such good weather to enjoy the garden.

Beautiful property and like Pandora’s box inside. Very deceptive from outside. Very peaceful. Everything you could wish for. A little more detail with cleanliness would be better.( Had to wash all cutlery and clean out the drawer as dirty and full of crumbs). Wanted to mop floor as had a dog but no mop bucket or head only the handle. Would recommend though.

Warm and cosy cottage in a quiet little village a couple of miles from Broadway. Quirky accommodation but comfortable and adequate for our needs - 2 adults, two children and a dog. Lots of loose wires in the lounge and bedrooms which need to be sorted out. Some door hooks or a coat stand would be useful as there was nowhere to hang coats so we had to leave them on the sofa. Lots of bedding stored in the wardrobe in one of the bedrooms so not much space to keep you clothes.

The location and cottage are lovely and we enjoyed our stay. In particular the local pub and walks were perfect. It was disappointing and a first for us to be in a cottage for Christmas with no tree or Christmas decoration to welcome us. We purchased some lights and decorations and this was all good. Our lower scores are for cleanliness and condition of the property. The cleaning was poor, in particular downstairs and we needed to do cleaning ourselves e.g. utensils before use and furniture in lounge. This was not helped by the property being tired and some aspects needing refreshing / tidying e.g. lots of electricity leads hanging down and no lighting on stairs, and lots of rubbish in wardrobes. Sadly these were all avoidable things that would stop us coming back or recommending the property, and they stop the property from being amazing.

We spent a long weekend in this delightful cottage that sits on the very outskirts of Broadway. The cottage was warm, clean and tidy and was surprisingly large inside thanks in part to an extensive rear extension. Everything you needed was provided including cookies, a bottle of milk and a bottle of wine! These small things make such a difference and they were very well received. The beds were comfortable and the shower was very effective and easy to use. The cottage was within walking distance of an excellent pub and restaurant that gave us a warm welcome and served some excellent food.
