“Cosy cottage with everything we needed!”
Mrs Aziz February 2020

“The cottage was well equipped and clean.”

However, it did not meet our expectations as it was on the main road and the One bedroom was too small for a couple. The price did not reflect the size and the standard of the cottage. But it must be said that the owner was very nice and flexible with checkin and out.

“Perfect home from home”

As a group of friends/family, we try to get away together a couple of times a year. This house was perfect. Sandra-the owner- couldn’t have been more hospitable. A delicious lemon drizzle cake, Prosecco and chocolates awaited us along with a basket full of firewood for the log burner. The cottage is cosy and very well equipped. Everything you needed and more. Beautiful garden and outdoor furniture and as the weather was beautiful, we were able to make some use of the outside. The surrounding area is so picturesque too. I would definitely recommend it to others. Thank you
Mrs Allen September 2019

“The house was lovely and had everything we needed for seven ladies sharing.”

Location good as well. The owner helpful and friendly. We appreciated her arrival gift of smartie/chocolate cake and prosecco.
Mrs Coster September 2019

“We all had a lovely time at the cottage.”

There were nine of us in all including two children and one infant. Each family had their own bathroom facilities which was very convenient and the garden was wonderful for playing in. As posted before, Sandra left us an amazing chocolate smartie cake and 2 bottles of prosecco which got our holiday off to a flying start! Would definitiely stay there again. Only things we couldn't find were a dustpan and brush (although we later found two brushes under the dresser in the kitchen) and a broom. All in all an amazing time was had by all.Thank you.
Mr Stephenson August 2019

“An ideal venue for a family gathering with lots of space and a large garden for the children to enjoy.”

If you are looking for a 5* Holiday, look again, but if you want a welcoming friendly environment away from it all then this is the place to be.
Dr Smith July 2019

“The cottage itself was comfortable and provided everything we needed.”

Only criticism? Perhaps more insructions on on facilities (oven, TV ,Dishwasher etc) would be a good idea. The village pub rovide an ex cellent evening meal for nine. Village church more thasn worth a visit. Access to Stratford very easy for theatre visit. A great garden; it being a hot week, we spent a lot of time out side and eating 'en plein air' was a real p[leasure. All in all we could not have chosen better.
Mrs Raven July 2019

“We had a lovely break a few things needed looking at in the house but nothing which spoiled our weekend break”
Mrs Hand June 2019

“This is my third stay at Elmhurst Cottage.”

It's absolutely beautiful. It's set in such a pretty village. The local pub, The College Arms is very welcoming. We would definitely stay again!!
Mr Lee April 2019

“This is a wonderful cottage in a quiet location right opposite the village church.”

Plenty of off street parking and the local pub is just round the corner. The garden is large with lots of seating and very well maintained. We were lucky that the sun shone for all 3 days so we could use the garden more than we would expect in the English spring! Inside is well equipped and clean with lots of space and lots of reminders of its history. Mobile reception is poor and internet speed slow, but then if that is your reason for staying here its not really a holiday is it? But thought it worth pointing out. Would highly recommend this cottage
Mr Rowland

“This was a special family occasion and the attention to detail in respect of provision for family living (e.”

G. music systems, candles, outdoor seating) was second to none.
Ms Hunter

“Loved the cakes and prosecco when we arrived, we struggled with the fridges though, they froze our food!”

! F it slept 8, looked pretty..
Mr Strange

“Spacious, well equiped.”

Nice garden, good furniture inside and out.
Mr and Mrs C

“Very comfortable, well equipped and accomodation suited our requirements.”
Mr Wolfe

“Superb facilities, charming cottage, everything you needed to make a wonderful stay brilliant.”
Heslop Family

“Excellent cottage with ample room for our party.”

Three bathrooms was an essential requirement. I would have liked warning of the low beams. As a tall man I cracked my head on the beams on several occasions. The dishwasher,freezer and fridge were all showing their age.
Mr Denyer

“Well presented cottage, owner greeted us, welcome cake and prosecco, spacious rooms, generous towels and toiletries, Beautiful garden with ample seating, all in good order.”

Would thoroughly recommend.
Mrs C

“Very good. The cottage was lovely and extremely well equipped - they supplied a few dishwasher tabs, washing up liquid etc, it was very much appreciated!”

They even left us a bottle of bubbly and some chocolates. We really liked the excellent Sky package, log burning stove, where the cottage was (opposite a pretty church and very near the excellent village pub).
Mrs R

“The service we received from Manor Cottages was excellent and faultless.”

Overall we were very impressed and would definitely recommend Manor Cottages as a company and Elmhurst Cottage as a venue. The cottage owner, Sandra Davenport, was very friendly and helpful when I collected the keys from her and the information provided about the local area was brilliant. There were lovely little touches in the cottage, such as fresh flowers in the dining room, a bowl of chocolates, plenty of towels and the high-tech audio/visual equipment was a pleasant surprise.
Mrs McB

“I just wanted to pass on how happy we were with Elmhurst Cottage-Lower Quinton where we stayed for xmas,arriving on the 22nd Dec.”

Sandra the owner had decorated the house beautifully for xmas.
Hand

“We had beautiful flowers, 2 bottles of prosecco and an amazing cake left for us by the owner.”

Well needed after 150 km cycle training weekend. The property was spotlessly clean. Mrs Hand, May 2017.
Ms Desoysa

“We had a very warm welcome at the cottage with a few extras -muffins and proseco and chocolates -left for us which was very welcoming.”

Everything was available in the cottage and we did not need anything. The garden and all the bedrooms and living areas were beautifully decorated and well looked after. We all had a wonderful time enhanced by our beautiful surroundings.
Mr Sone

“The house had everything a family could want including a lovely garden for the kids to run around.”
Mr Wright

“The cottage is in a lovely location and it has been very well maintained, both in the cottage and the lovely grounds around it.”
Mrs Balme

“The cottage was excellent and provided us with a home away from home, we had great weather so spent time just relaxing in the beautiful garden.”
“How would you improve the property?”

What did you like/dislike?.... could not improve
Mr Clyde

“I can't think of anything wrong, perfect accommodation.”
Mrs Newman

“Loved the cottage and thought the layout was ideal.”

Very cosy feel and good size for 8 of us.
Mrs. C.

“Very comfortable cottage, lovely cosy log burner, gorgeous garden.”
Mrs. G.

“The cottage is roomy and well designed for a big family Sandra made us very welcome.”

She added lots of extra touches - Prosecco, cupcakes, chocolate eggs and wonderful flowers. We loved all the white fluffy towels and the hotel toiletries.
Mr Lucas

“The cottage was very clean, very well equipped and has a wonderful atmosphere.”

The accommodation was ample and very comfortable. The garden was a delight, and so well maintained. We could not find a weed anywhere! The location was ideal for a relaxing break. The village too was very pleasant with lovely walks from the cottage.
Mr Read

“We had a most wonderful stay there.”

The extensive garden scored 20 out of 10! from my three young grandchildren. What a great bonus, with games of cricket (within the flower boundary of course), and football. The cottage itself scored on all fronts, from the quirky low beams (catching two of my family several times until they learned to duck down!), to the lovely kitchen, dining room, lounge, den, and the roomy bedrooms.
Mr Smith

“It was very well appointed cottage and fulfilled all of our requirements.”

The garden is huge and reasonably secluded and was enjoyed when the weather permitted.
Mr Baker

“Fantastic house in a lovely village.”
Wright

“The situation and setting of the house was excellent for visiting a great variety of towns and delightful villages, stately homes, interesting churches according to Simon Jenkins, and beautiful gardens.”

The bird life in the garden was a joy. Mrs Wright, July 2017.
Capel

“Elmhurst Cottage was a great place to stay for our family weekend near Stratford.”

We enjoyed the outside eating area and the large extremely well equipped kitchen. The bedrooms were very comfortable and suited our party of 7 extremely well. We were even left cakes on our arrival and a bowl of chocolates which was a lovely touch. All in all a wonderful long weekend\ Camilla, Sept 2016
Ms Apel

“Cottage was lovely, clean and very comfortable.”

Everything we needed was there
Mrs Field

“The cottage was well equipped and clean.”

The owner had left prosecco, muffins and flowers for our stay which was a really nice touch.
Stephen

“â€œThe perfect rental!”

Chris did a great job with the booking and Sandra was very helpful with the arrival. The property was excellent with all the amenities you could want. We loved the personal touch of the cake on arrival!! We will definitely be booking this house again.â€ \ Stephen, August 2016

The property

Elmhurst Cottage is a very attractive holiday cottage situated in a picture postcard village in the northern Cotswolds.

The cottage is utterly charming and filled with lovely period features including original beams, an inglenook fireplace and flagstone floors - all hardly surprising given that it dates back to the 1600's!

It's idyllic location over looking the beautiful village church of St Swithin's along with glorious views to open countryside make it ideal for a rural holiday, yet given there is a pub in the village along with some basic shops you've actually got plenty on your doorstep too.

The location is perfect for visiting many local Cotswold villages plus of course Shakespeare Country at Stratford upon Avon.

The owner has carefully maintained the property over the years and still is one of our most popular cottages and in our opinion for good reason.

The cottage is ideal for groups and families alike with good size bedrooms, a study with Xbox for the children and a large garden to the rear.

We love it here!

About the location

CHIPPING CAMPDEN

Moreton-in-Marsh 8 miles; Stratford-upon-Avon 12 miles

This market town defines the saying "good things come in small packages" as it proves itself to be a wonderful place for tourists to stay. Chipping Campden sits in the northern part of the Cotswolds and boasts many historical buildings from St. James' church where the Chipping Camden Music Festival is held every year, to the early 17th century market hall upon which the town prides itself. Not only does the town have a rich history but much more, the high street is laced with charming Cotswold stone buildings with a range of shops and pubs. Nearby there are several beautiful, formal gardens for you to wander through. Chipping Campden has held its own 'Olimpick Games' since the early 1600s including peculiar sports such as 'shin-kicking', most certainly worth lining your holiday up with to experience something so unique. For a dose of famous history, head to the birthplace of William Shakespeare in Stratford-upon-Avon just 12 short miles away, it offers some charming little buildings, bookshops, theatres and museums.
