• "We enjoyed a super stay at Woodbine Cottage."

  It was beautifully decorated. An absolute delight after a previous dreadful Sykes stay in Corfe Castle!! Luxurious bedding in 2 lovely bedrooms. The cottage is a dark space, apart from the porch and bathroom so sunlight didn't really penetrate. It didn't really warm up inside so we certainly needed the heating! However, despite temperature recommended we had to turn up the heating and sit in our coats!! Not great? We felt the kitchen needed a few essential extras like a slotted spoon and salt+pepper. We managed a few simple meals and found all that we needed. Lovely dining area opposite made meal times easy... However we did enjoy the local pub Kings Arms' hospitality many times that week. Lovely village with great walks close by especially down to the river... We found exiting the property on a bend was quite tricky so we felt we had to leave the gate open when we ventured out every afternoon! We really did walk the Avon River quite thoroughly at Bidford, Evesham and Stratford. All lovely destination for nature... We only ventured into Cheltenham, Warwick+Stratford towns. The journey back from Cheltenham through the villages was probably the most beautiful route ever... Thank you for a lovely stay. And the Easter biscuits were fantastic!!

  We had a wonderful break at Woodbine Cottage, beautiful spotlessly cottage with a lovely log fire, excellent base for traveling round, lovely pub just 5mins walking distance which services great pub food and accommodates dogs, could do with a mop & bucket for cleaning the tiled floor after you have been out for a walk on the fields, apart from that we had a lovely start to the new year

• "A beautiful cottage in an equally beautiful area."

  Spent most of our days out at local tourist/leisure spots but it's very cosy to spend the evening. Spotlessly clean and everything was comfortable to sit and sleep on. In our haste to book we didn't check and wrongly assumed that it might have a washing machine, so if going for longer stays just bear that in mind. Would definitely recommend for a short stay

• "Overall, the description of the property was totally accurate, and was comfortable & very well equiped."

  The location was excellent for visiting local places of interest, and was very quiet & peaceful. We found the various welcome packs very thoughtful. The one minor point that we would raise was the absence of a regular breadknife - a crusty loaf was quite difficult to cut with the available sharp knives. A final thought would be that, had we been staying for longer than a week, then the absence of a washing machine would have proved difficult.

  Thank you for your comments. We are glad to hear that you found the property well equipped and well located. We will look at getting a bread knife for the property. Kind Regards, Manor Cottages Property Owner

• "The property was immaculate."

  It looked like we were the first people to stay there since refurbishment. The outside area which we never used would be fab on a cool summers evening for sitting outside. The interior was immaculate and well laid out. Decorated to a high standard. Living area was very comfortable. Kitchen was well equipped. Bedrooms were very comfortable. Located very central to our needs. Visiting friends and the Cotswolds. If I was to return here, this would be my first choice of accommodation. Briefly met the owner. Very nice gentleman. Thank you.

• "The cottage is simply too nice to bring a dog."

  We chose the cottage predominantly because of the open fireplace & bought a car load of wood but having access to a log store when we ran out was a major bonus. The thermostat is in the lounge area which, when using the log burner, meant that the heating switched off; so upstairs was often cold, maybe reciting it to the kitchen would help. The lack of access to a washing machine & no TV in the master bedroom were the facilities we missed the most. Luckily the local pub was opened during our stay so we had chance to meet the very friendly locals who helped direct us to some good areas to walk when the weather wasn't any good. Would we like to go back - yes but probably without our little man & only assuming the local pub is open.

  Thank you for taking the time to provide this feedback. We're glad you enjoyed your stay at the cottage and appreciate your suggestions and comments which we will pass on to the owner. We would love to welcome you back. Best wishes Manor Cottages Property Owner

• "The cottage was beautiful, clean, warm etc."

  it needs some more kitchen equipment if you plan to ‘cook’ like Tupperware, better sharp knives etc. Beds were AMAZING! Lovely bed linen etc. the TV wasn’t great BUT the owners went out and got us a new one so I can now confirm it has Netflix for those who have an acc to log in to, very kind people. The pub down the road is essentially closed. It’s for sale and the locals are trying to buy it so it was open for a few hours on the Friday and Saturday night. Sadly no food but understandable. Log burner amazing and a supply of wood for 2 fires. We had a lovely time and would love to return. Be aware though that Sykes Cottages don’t let you in until 4pm and you have to be out by 10am but you are expected to ‘clean’ it and strip beds before departure. We had to leave early due to my friends mother suddenly passing away and although we were told it ‘should’ be ok to leave it the worry of taking £100 off my card was something we didn’t want to risk so made sure it was all perfect which we could of done without to be honest. I’ve never stayed in cottages where you are expected to clean to the standard it is when you arrive and strip beds. Not sure exactly what the housekeepers role is. The cottage wasn’t cheap but as it’s been completely refurbished so that’s understandable it’s just shame we had the to do so much before we could leave. No issues with the cottage, highly recommend it and the lovely owners.

  Thank you for your feedback with regards to your stay at Woodbine Cottage. It's lovely to hear how attentive the Owners have been, with regards to replacing the TV. We will pass on your other comments to the Owner for Review. We hope you made the most of your time at the cottage and managed to enjoy some of the wonderful places to visit in the Cotswolds.

• "Beautiful cottage."

  Everything you could want. Great location for visiting Bourton on the Water, Stow on the Wold, Stratford upon Avon, Warwick and Royal Leamington Soa Unfortunately the village pub has closed. The listing said smart TV but unable to use Netflix and couldn’t mirror smart phone. So just freeview channels.
