Mrs Coupland August 2020

“Having read all the reviews I got the break I was expecting.”

The accommodation is comfortable and clean. Just like other reviews the downside is it is a little dark and only one bathroom. But, it's so peaceful and restful and away from it all. No mobile signal so a complete rest! Sitting in the garden watching the water glisten, birds flying, boats passing was just the tonic after a stressful 5 months. The pub 2 mins walk away is great. Friendly welcome and really good food! Local Londis shop is no more than a few mins by car and was well stocked. We had a great break here.

- Mrs Coupland, August 2020
Mr Burnett July 2020

“Lovely holiday cottage, very clean and family upstairs were extremely helpful.”

Great spot for fishing, we caught roach, perch and pike. Pub less than 5 minutes up the road, staff were really friendly and food fantastic!!! Only improvement could be a new mattress in the room overlooking the garden.

- Mr Burnett, July 2020
Mrs Mack October 2019

“Had a really relaxing time which was just what we needed.”

The place was lovely, very clean and everything available Would certainly go back again

Mr Watson June 2019

“Absolutely a gorgeous place to stay nice and quite, over looking the river Severn spotlessly clean, and key hand over the simplest ever, ideal spot for visiting the local area.”

Rosewater's Cottage was the ideal size, we stated out as a party of five then ended up as two due to work commitments. In the local area the nearest pub is the Hampstall Inn, up the "Ramp" turn right and walk for three minutes, the inn overlooks the river and the food is fine Tuesdays and Thursdays steak night try it. Will we visit again most certainly with no hesitation.

- Mr Watson, June 2019
Mr Chatham June 2019

“The cottage is in need of a few very basic repairs to have made it a fantastic stay.”

Lacking a secure fishing tackle store also. The location was perfect for an angler looking to have all the fun of the river Severn. Great facilities in the cottage and a very nice quiet village location.

- Mr Chatham, June 2019
Mr Bevan November 2018

“We had a great week at this spacious, well looked after and well equipped property.”

Beautiful outlook over the river. Lots of different birds seen. Fishing better than expected for the time of year. We will return in the future.

- Mr Bevan, November 2018
Mrs Floyd October 2018

“The cottage was beautifully decorated & furnished & immaculately clean.”

There were a few minor problems during our stay but these were promptly fixed by Syke’s & the caretaker of the cottage. The one let down was the bed mattress, which we think does need replacing as it was very uncomfortable. Be aware the speed bumps on the cul-de-sac are very high!

- Mrs Floyd, October 2018
Mrs Greensmith August 2018

“Firstly we would like to say a huge thank you to Jackie and Graham for their friendliness during our stay.”

Could not fault the property which was spotlessly clean, and very roomy, also it had everything you needed to make your stay pleasurable. The location was exactly what we were looking for, perfect for fishing and sight seeing. Would highly recommend it, and we will definitely be back.

- Mrs Greensmith, August 2018
Mr Sawyer July 2018

“We had a very enjoyable holiday the owners were very pleasant and the cottage was very spacious and well equipped.”

The only problem was 1 bathroom but we managed.

- Mr Sawyer, July 2018
Mrs Havern July 2018

“We thoroughly enjoyed our week, it met all our expectations.”

Garden was brilliant for the dog. Everything was immaculately clean. Very relaxing down by the water, would highly recommend the holiday let, which was very spacious, mind you there was only the two of us plus the dog, but still think it would be big enough to sleep seven. Graham and Jacqueline the caretakers were extremely helpful.

- Mrs Havern, July 2018
Mr Hardman June 2018

“Clean and a very helpful owner will definitely stay there again.”

Very peaceful location on the river

- Mr Hardman, June 2018
Mrs Dodge June 2018

“Accommodation was spacious and clean.”

However, because the cottage was beneath another property it was quite dark inside. The barbecue was rusty and unusable. Also the pub advertised within walking distance is closed at the moment.

- Mrs Dodge, June 2018
Mrs Avery May 2018

“The Cottage is in a quiet spot over looking the river.”

We were able to spend time watching the birds and boats. The children made friends with the dog upstairs as well as the next door children and another dog in the close. The cottage is well equipped, with plenty of crockery, cutlery and saucepans, which makes a nice change. Although it was good to have a dishwasher a washing machine would have been more useful. We only stayed a few nights but the children still managed to get filthy! There are a few little things that could be sorted quickly, mainly the lighting. The cooker hob only had one light working with none under the cupboards. The cottage is very spacious, however if another bathroom could be fitted it would be even better. My parents joined us and although it wasn't a problem waiting for the bathroom four adults, one of whom is disabled plus a teenager and ten year old did mean it took a while to get out in the mornings! Thank you for the use of a lovely property in a very quiet relaxing spot.

- Mrs Avery, May 2018
Mrs Jones April 2018

“We were very disappointed, felt like we were staying in someone’s basement, not a cottage.”

Windows in main living area were below upstairs decking so felt very dark. Could hear people walking about above and a very lively washing machine! Very difficult to get a consistent heating temperature. Some doors didn’t shut properly, eg, kitchen and bedroom doors. Lots of lights didn’t work. Even though towels were included there were only 3 bath towels and 3 hand towels despite it being 7 berth accommodation which were old and different shades of brown. We had to buy more towels. Smelled damp, all our clothes needed washing once home to get rid of the smell. However, it was spacious and lovely and clean, WiFi was excellent which was a lifesaver as none of us had a mobile phone signal. The television was nice and big so we could all spread out and relax. Furniture was nice. The pub & restaurant described as two minutes walk away, was indeed a short walk but when we got there it had closed down and was falling apart. We were looking forward to returning to the Cotswolds as we had been last year. This was not the Cotswolds! Had to travel 45 minutes to get to the pretty places. Stourport on Severn was not a very appealing place, most of the amusements were closed despite it being the school holidays.

- Mrs Jones, April 2018

“Much better than previous reviewers give credit for”

Let us be clear there are pluses and minuses to this property, but it seems churlish to criticise the minuses when you know what you are signing up to. Let us deal with the positives first. The cottage was plenty warm enough. It was clean, tidy and well furnished and the wifi was good. It is also in a lovely quiet riverside location with great walks for dogs and humans on the doorstep. There are plenty of all sorts of entertainments that can be had a short drive away, from the West Mids Safari Park and Severn Valley Railway, to Hartlebury Museum, Worcester City and so on. Being all on one level with a very small step on the access path meant that it was easy enough to get elderly family members into and out of the house. However; had we been more organised we would have tried to find a property with more than one bathroom, and with a washing machine. We might also have looked for a cottage that was not the undercroft of someone's house. We weren't organised and so we made do with what we got, and no doubt paid less than we would have, if we had found a picturesque cottage with all the facilities that we could have desired.

“Could do with a washing machine”

- Mrs Moir, March 2017
Mr Kinnard October 2016

“The accommodation was a lot more spacious than it appears on the website.”

Very comfortable. Maybe the radiator needs looking at in the living room, did not seem to get as hot as the rest in the house, could be a problem in very cold weather.

- Mr Kinnard, October 2016
Miss Wiffen September 2016

“Very nice and quite place.”

Five adults who all slept well. Very good facilities. We did have a small problem with the gas but Mr Edwards came As he could(about 10 mins) sorted it and very helpful. The doors are nice and wide so mum could get her wheelchair around the rooms. All very good and clean.

- Miss Wiffen, September 2016
Mrs Norman May 2016

“The cottage was ideally situated, with a private garden which had sun all day.”

It was very spacious and clean.

- Mrs Norman, May 2016
Ms Wolff January 2015

“It was a great cottage by the river, it was very peaceful.”

The cottage was warm and cosy with everything that you would need, it was like being at a home from home. The owner was very helpful and could not do enough to make sure that my stay was perfect. I would certainly recommend staying at this cottage.

- Ms Wolff, January 2015
Mr Roebuck September 2014

“Had a fantastic holiday .”

We went to fish mainly and it never let us down with barbel & bream. Also found the owner a very helpful and friendly man

- Mr Roebuck, September 2014
Mrs Taylor September 2014

“The location was great.”

The garden was lovely and we were very lucky with the weather so were able to spend a lot of time outside relaxing and fishing.

- Mrs Taylor, September 2014
Mrs Hall August 2014

“Rosewaters Cottage was our ideal holiday home and the location was great for all the places we intended to visit.”

The fishing at the bottom of the garden made a very happy son and grandson and nan, granddad and wife/mum had some riverbank "chillaxing." There were some very nice pubs/restaurants close by so not a lot of cooking went on. All in all we had a lovely holiday which we hope to repeat sometime.

- Mrs Hall, August 2014

“Outstanding place to stay!!”

We rent a holiday home every year and have never been more pleased than with Rosewater Cottage. The house, gardens and location is outstanding, excellent for fishing and relaxing with a great local pub and lots of local places to visit. The property was immaculate with everything you needed for an excellent stay. Fantastic furnishings, comfy beds and immaculately maintained. We have already booked again for next year – I would recommend to anyone.

A FlipKey verified reviewer February 2013

“Brilliant, very helpful owner even as the waters rose!”

The house is lovely, spacious but comfortable, home from home. We went for our family Christmas as the waters rose. The owner was very concerned and came to check we were not flooded even on Christmas Day. Nothing to dislike. It the weather had been kinder we would have enjoyed lovely walks from the property into Stourport along the river. Lovely view out over the river Severn. Would love to visit again in warmer weather!

Mr Griffiths December 2012

The owner was extremely welcoming and accommodating and had even put up a Christmas tree which was highly appreciated by our three children. The weather was unseasonably cold but the place was very warm and cosy which was great because we had just left Australia and 30 degrees! The property is set in a sublime location overlooking the River Severn and is highly recommended.
