  Ivy cottage had everything we needed and more and the cake and milk left for us on our arrival was a lovely gesture. The cottage had a lovely big secure garden for our dog and lots of lovely places to visit just a short drive away. I would highly recommend Ivy cottage .

• "Fabulous week away at a fabulous Cottage, beautifully presented with a great deal of care and taste to retain the cottage feel but still with a modern twist, fully equipped with everything you need from all the kitchen equipment, comfy sofa, lovely TV and fabulously comfortable large bed!"

  Rachele is a wonderful host and so accommodating and left not only easy to understand instructions for Wi-Fi, bins etc but cakes and milk and treats for the dogs. The garden is enclosed and provided a safe environment for our two Cockers who loved it…you even have your own private parking space behind gates. Having had cottage holidays since 2017 and stayed in something like 20 different ones around the country this one is certainly one of the very best not only for the presentation but also the locality to the Malverns, Worcester, Ross on Wye, Monmouth & Abergavenny. Thank you Rachele for a lovely week! Robert, Freda, Bella & Betsy

  Spotlessly clean and beautifully presented with attention to detail. Rachele left a delicious cake, tea and coffee for us. Great good sized secure garden for us to enjoy the lovely view of the Malverns with our dogs. We enjoyed the walks from the door, walked up several of the Malvern hills (from which we were amazed by the most fantastic far reaching views), visited Ross-On-Wye and Great Malvern. Rachele provided lots of information and was prompt replying to a question we had. We really enjoyed our stay and would totally recommend this lovely cottage without hesitation.

  We got it right. The listing on the web site was spot on - the cottage is but perfectly formed and had everything we needed for our chill out break. We loved the garden for bird watching, although sadly the hedgehogs didn’t come out to see us. The countryside in the area was absolutely gorgeous and the girls were happy all day long - either on the commons or in the garden playing together. The welcome basket for the humans was a real treat and the jar of biscuits for the dogs was very well received!! Thank you for a wonderful week.

• "What a stunning cottage!"

  As holiday cottage owners ourselves, we are quite picky, and our only negative comment is that there wasn't a lot of storage space for the food we took. There was a very generous welcome basket waiting for us on arrival, as well as one for the dogs. It was lovely being opposite the common for dog walks, although because of free-roaming sheep we couldn't let the dogs off the lead. But the garden to the cottage more than made up for that as it was really big and totally secure. Lovely to have the sitting-out area with comfy seats and a sun umbrella. The kitchen was really well equipped and it was good to have 2 separate seats in the living room. The king-size bed was really comfy and the hanging space very ingenious. Great to have so many hangers too. The bathroom was excellent, with a bath as well as a shower and plenty of shelf space for toiletries. Would definitely recommend this lovely cottage.

  Thank you both for all of your positive comments. I took your point about space for food storage on board and have re-arranged things so there is some free cupboard space. Very happy to hear you enjoyed your stay. Property Owner

  There is everything you need for a comfortable, relaxing stay and the garden is fully enclosed/fenced if you're bringing a Dog with you too. The kitchen is well laid out, plenty of space and a large Lounge. It's deceptively spacious. There is a road that runs beside the Cottage but it's a quiet 30 mph road and we didn't notice any noise from traffic. Fantastic hot shower, massive bed, handy utility room and log burner if the evenings are cold. Underfloor heating is a gem first thing in the morning. We had a great stay here and we will definitely be looking to go back.

• "We loved our stay at Ivy Cottage, booked so we could visit the RHS Malvern Show."

  It is a beautiful little house, and Racehele made our stay lovely, with really good welcome instructions and a lovely welcome pack. The garden is lovely for sitting out and secure for the dog. There are amazing walks right from the door onto the common, which can take you right up into the Malvern Hills.We loved how homely it was and we were so sad to leave and would not hesitate to recommend this to others. We will be booking again, as there is so much to do in this part of the country. We can recommend climbing all the hills, also Upton on Severn and Worcester, Ledbury is nice for eating out also. The Bluebell in Malvern is a nice dog friendly pub. We wanted for nothing during our holiday, the cottage was perfect and had all we needed. Thank you Rachele.

  The owners have done a good job of renovating the cottage. Everything has been thought of that you might need. I had no trouble finding the property. I found it quite central for visiting the Cotswolds.

• "The cottage was beautiful and had all the home comforts you would need."

  It was tastefully decorated and the attention to detail was outstanding. The cooking facilities were excellent and was much better supplied with equipment than previous cottages I stayed in. It was peaceful and in an idyllic location and it was very easy to get visit nearby towns. Loved everything about this cottage and will definately return. The welcome treats were very much appreciated.

• "Great communication from Sykes, and Rachele."

  The cottage was beautiful and well equipped. Very large comfortable bed. Looking at the renovation photos in the cottage, the owners have done a fantastic job. Our only concerns were, there is no full length mirror, and the fridge wasn't very cold. But only minor issues that wouldn't stop us from returning. We really enjoyed staying there.

  The only issue was the instructions on the Sykes website about locating the cottage. These instructions did not match the post code.

• "Ivy Cottage is the perfect place escape to."

  It's a stunning cottage that had been beautifully and lovingly restored and has everything you could possibly need, making it a home away from home. Ivy is in a great location, not just because of the surrounding countryside but because it's close to all the amenities, however it's far enough out to enjoy the peace and quiet. A list of the local supermarkets etc are provided in the visitors guide, including the contact details for the local doctors surgery, dentist or vets if you require them. The nearest town, Ledbury, is a short drive away through the Malvern Hills, passing through Eastnor and it's castle, and the fields on the other side of the road are lovely to walk around - but watch out for the sheep! The bench at the top of the hill is a very pretty place to sit and watch the world go by, with views of Ivy Cottage and the surrounding farmland. As for the host - she was faultless. She kept us informed and up-to-date with everything. She has created a wonderful holiday cottage and made our stay unforgettable. The little touches made it even more special. My boyfriend and I felt very lucky to have been the first guests to stay at Ivy. We have made many memories there and have fallen in love with it. It was very hard to leave! But we will definitely be returning soon. We're sure you'll love Ivy Cottage as much as we do.
