Jul 2008 | The cottage had been rebuilt about a year ago and has been very thoughtfully done. The furnishing were very thoughtful and high quality and included extras like alarm clocks, bath sheets rather than just bath towels.

May 2008 | This was the best cottage we have booked through your excellent company. Coupled with the glorious Herefordshire countryside, it made for a lovely holiday.
Mr Oxford, Chelmsford, Essex
May 2008 | Property was excellent, we didn't want to leave. With Eastnor Castle about an hour's drive away which is well worth a visit.
Mrs Jenkins, Pontyclun, Rhondda, Cynon, Taff
Mar 2008 | I know it rarely happens but the standard of all aspects of the accommodation was really excellent, it seems really new so that helps but we found everything in the cottage we could possibly need e.g ample towels and bedding, lots of crockery, pots and pans. The wood burning fire was fabulous. The cottage succeeded in feeling cosy, while at the same time modern and spotlessly clean.
