“Charming cottage in a beautiful village.”
Mrs Godwin August 2019

“This cottage is lovely with a large garden.”

It is spacious downstairs however I was very disappointed with the third bedroom upstairs. Although the description does state that the single bedroom is 'accessed through twin bedroom', this single room cannot be described as a bedroom as there is no window and therefore no ventilation. Consequently it is necessary to leave the door between the single room and the twin room open resulting in a lack of privacy for the occupants of both these rooms. Please ensure that the description is changed immediately so that other visitors are not misled. I would be grateful to receive an acknowledgement and an assurance that the description will be corrected.
Mrs Meheux April 2019

“The property is advertised as having 3 bedrooms and whilst it makes people aware that the third bedroom is accessed through the second it does not make it clear how small it is.”

It is really only suitable for a child and certainly would not be suitable for anyone with claustrophobia. The property is well equipped but perhaps could benefit from another waste bin in the second bedroom and one in the downstairs shower room and it would be nice to have a full length mirror somewhere, maybe on the landing. Otherwise the property is very well equipped with all mod cons whilst being tastefully decorated in the style of the property. The property itself is a little quirky and there is a definite knack to closing the bathroom door. Also one needs to remember to duck when entering the bedrooms, particularly the double bedroom as my husband banged his head very hard on more than one occasion. There is a huge garden and the property is located in a very pretty and tranquil village which is within easy access of Peterborough, with its impressive cathedral, Rutland Water and many other beautiful villages and places of interest. The local pub, The Cuckoo, which is just down the road is very friendly and serves excellent food and makes a perfect venue for your first evening.

“The cottage was really comfortable and well equipped.”

It was a real home from home. The village was beautiful and the local people were very friendly.
Mrs Griffiths November 2018

“This was such a tasteful cottage, with everything you could wish for.”

We wouldn't hesitate to meet up with family here again.
Mr Barton September 2018

“Great property( a little quirky ), low doorways, so remember to duck.”

Well supplied in kitchen, with everything needed. Kitchen & dining tables, great size ( mind the candelabra over dining table when rising!). Could be a little more comfort in living room, & bedroom furniture. Location excellent for I & my wife, plenty of shopping areas not to far. Bags of walks, and, places to visit, once again nearby. Garden, excellent, especially all the visiting wildlife. ( Did think, the shed was haunted, heard scraping noises every late evening, from that area!!). All in all, excellent host, great property, could have stayed longer.

“The accommodation at 14 Church Street, Alwalton was superb, an absolute delight and a real find!”

Very clean, every need considered and catered for. Situated in an idyllic location, large garden - none of us under 16, nonetheless we enjoyed playing badminton, bat and ball. We also made use of the games supplied. The kitchen had everything you could possibly think of. Owner left welcome supplies (biscuits, fruit and wine) - a lovely touch. We found the location ideal to visit Peterborough, Cambridge, Ely (Cathedral), Belvoir Castle, Stamford and much more! Also a delight for nature lovers as garden visited by numerous different animals and birds!

“14 Church Street, Alwalton”

This property is in an ideal location for the holiday we had in mind when we booked. Close to Peterborough, very close to A1 access (without any traffic noise) and with easy access to London on the train either from Peterborough or Huntingdon, close to Oundle and Stamford. The cottage is extremely well appointed with off road parking, a large garden and with space and comfort inside, having been upgraded to a high standard.

“Escape to the country”

We loved this cottage for our Easter break. It is so near to the A1,but in a very quiet village with a lovely pub who does fab food.the cottage is well equipped and was perfect for our little grandson,2year old.we had a wonderful egg hunt in the huge garden where it was safe for him to play.It is also close to some interesting towns and villages also country houses. We would love to return to This cottage in the future.

“fab cottage”

“Relaxing”

Quiet village, unbelievably one half mile from the a1. Shop, pub with fantastic food and friendly villagers. First class accommodation in every way.

“Perfection!”

This is a delightful cottage, beautifully appointed, with everything that one could wish for in a holiday home. It was lovely to find the welcome bottle of wine and the bowl of fruit. We loved the well-thought out access through a utility area so that wet boots, coats etc could be disposed of without encroaching on the rooms themselves. A slightly clearer description of the whereabouts of the smallest bedroom would have relieved us of some anxiety - I had visualised having to go through my son's room to the bathroom. In fact I shared the twin-bedded room with my grand-daughter and my four year old grandson was delighted with his "secret room" which led off ours and not off the main bedroom as I think it said in the description. All in all however, we had a perfect break and are planning on a return visit sometime next year...
