  • "Homely, clean & comfortable."

    Well presented in a beautiful and peaceful setting. Russel had turned some lights on for us as it was dark on our arrival. Would recommend and return. The DVD player, CD player and iPod docking station need to be removed from the summary as these were not available in the cottage. Strangely, CD’s & DVD’s were supplied?

    Thank you for your feedback with regards to your stay at Granary Cottage. It's lovely to hear how much you enjoyed staying with us and we will pass on your feedback to the Owner for review regarding the DVD'S. We hope to welcome you back again in the future.

  • "The owners were extremely hospitable and went beyond to help us."

    We stayed during a period of very hot weather and found the bedrooms intolerably hot so purchased a couple of fans, these did help. The property and area are beautiful and well worth visiting.

  • "It was an amazing place to stay."

    We loved the comfort of the place and all the amenities. Such a luxury to have 2 toilets in a 2 bed holiday home! Our little one hasn't stopped talking about the tree house or how helpful Russell was in showing us where we could play. We loved seeing the peacocks. The cottage was brilliantly situated for walks, visiting the Cotswolds and Stratford-upon-Avon. We'd love to visit again.

    We're delighted to hear that you had such a great holiday and that the junior member of your party had so much fun. We look forward to welcoming you again. Best wishes, Manor Cottages. Property Owner

    Situated in a quiet unspoilt village convenient for visiting the Cotswolds. Very helpful, friendly owners with access to the orchard and grounds. Lovely walks around local villages, with more tourist villages & towns not too far away. Would definitely stay again.

    We are glad you enjoyed your stay in the peaceful location and were able to make good use of the local walks and visits in the area. We look forward to welcoming you back again. Best wishes Manor Cottages Property Owner

  • "I rang Sykes to request an earlier access to the Granary than stated 6pm because my mother (91), is blind and it would have been helpful…No reply except a reminder of the stated situation!"

    Turned up at 6pm and the welcome pack said access was 4pm!??? Very annoying. The extra time would have help to assimilate for her… Owner, Russell was very pleasant and helpful when we arrived, but no further help was required. The cottage itself was lovely, comfortable and well equipped and would recommend it to anyone!

    Thank you for taking the time to provide this feedback. We're delighted that you loved the cottage and found it to be comfortable and well equipped. Regarding the check-in time, we apologise for any misunderstanding and hope this didn't impact on the rest of your stay. We are gradually trying to bring forward the times following Covid.
