Quaint cottage perfect for what we needed

N/A

good location

to volume limited and we couldn't hear. I understand that noise needs to limited but it was too low.

Had lots of character and the staff were super helpful in organising a cot.

10min drive from town - fine if you have a car. Place is on the small side.

A real hidden gem of a cottage. The house is located within 30 seconds walk of mini market, take aways and pub. 5 mins walk to a train station that takes you directly to St.Albans. The house is cosy, furnished for comfort and the kitchen has everything you need for a self catering stay, even down to decent appliances. Wifi is provided and more than capable of streaming. I arrived from London Gatwick, amazed to find a direct train from the airport to St.Albans City. I had luggage, so I got a taxi to the property, but with less luggage a short walk to St.Albans Abbey station and a train to park street would have saved me £15. The host was amazing, responsive and a really easy to deal with, basically a seamless and trouble free stay from start to finish.

Cleaning company could focus on dusting the blinds and ceiling corners, but that’s my pet niggle.

Pretty cottage, clean, warm. Nice bedrooms but very snug for 4 adults. Location good for road networks, trains and St Albans. Nice park outlook at front. Enclosed rear small paved garden.

Kitchen needed mugs instead of tiny coffee cups. No egg cups. No bottle opener. Hoover had no suction so didn't work. Shower door off of runner. No terrestrial channels on TV only film channels. Seating in lounge not suitable for 4 adults to be comfortable.

The cottage is a splendid place to stay. It is warm and comfortable and beautifully decorated. The living room is comfortable and you can choose to eat at the kitchen table or outside in the garden.The kitchen is fully equipped with everything you need and the bedrooms are comfortable and cosy. In the bathroom you can choose a bath or a shower. The location is great too. The playing field opposite with the nearby woods and lakes makes it the perfect place for a morning walk to see some beautiful views. It is the perfect place for a walk with a dog. For cats there is a cat flap in the kitchen St Alban's city centre can be reached from a bus stop very near. That same bus goes to the train station from where you can catch a train into London.

We would have preferred not to park on the road. However,there was plenty of space.

Clean and cosy! There is a park nearby and quick access to M25 / M1. Definitely will come back.
