"Lovely weeks stay in the cottage."
It’s compact but has everything you’d need. We were made to feel very welcome and the bonus at the end was some real ale that the owner gave us. Delicious! Would recommend staying here and hopefully we’ll see you again.
Thanks so much for such a great review and we hope to see you again! Property Owner

"Fox Cottage is a cosy 2-room cottage at the back of the main house."
Kitchen/Living room, bedroom and bathroom provide all you need. The owners, Tracie and Mike, made us feel very welcome and provided many extras we did not expect. They also recommeded a few activities and made our stay very enjoyable. For us Fox Cottage was a home away from home!
Thank you so much ! We loved having you stay ! Property Owner

"This is a beautiful little property attached to a stunning thatched cottage with pleasant gardens."
It was nicely furnished with a very comfortable bed and a good hot shower - all very necessary when, like us, the weather throws a wobble and you arrive home soaked and cold! The owners, Tracie and Mike are great hosts. We didn't see too much of them, but we knew we could contact them if we needed, which suited us fine. We were woken every morning by the gentle clucking of the hens and visited by Zorro, the cat, via the kitchen window! It was just perfect! We found we were perfectly situated to visit places near and far as the road network made it so easy.( Not something we are used to in Norfolk) and we travelled widely....Bath and Ironbridge to name two. We have both said how refreshed we feel, which I doubt we have ever thought before, and what a fantastic week we had, despite the weather. I would highly recommend Fox Cottage. It's not large, but it doesn't matter as you'll be out and about enjoying all that Worcestershire and beyond has to offer.
What a lovely kind review! You certainly packed some great trips in ! We really hope to see you both again . Thanks so much ! Property Owner

"A very happy, week with my Bichon…."
Simon. The situation of the cottage meant it was very peaceful, and the patio area was ideal for Simon to trot around safely, and I found the bed extremely comfortable which is not always a given. Tracie and Mike were very helpful and welcoming, especially when my visitors found a reservation at the Admiral Rodney had been cancelled at short notice. Mike suggested the Hadley Bowling Green Inn which proved to be an absolute gem. Wonderful food, lots of history, welcomed dogs, and only ten minutes away. Warning, if you throw a stick for Mikes spaniel you will be there for the morning! A truly lovely experience, thanks Tracie and Mike.
Thank you Ann so much for your glowing review. We loved having you and Simon stay and we hope you come back and see us again . Property Owner

"From the start of our holiday we received a phone call from Tracie explaining how to find the property."
Fox Cottage is the perfect place to explour local places or further away National Trust properties. Our dog was made to feel at home with treats that were left and the secure garden put our mind at rest. We had fresh eggs and milk left for us. The cottage was toasty and warm with extra touches in the bathroom with shower gels left. Our stay couldnt be more perfect. Thank you so much Tracie and Mike.
We loved having you stay and felt jealous that you visited more places on our doorstep than we have ! Great guests would recommend to any hosts . Property Owner

"Lovely hosts Tracie & Mike gave us a warm welcome with lots of helpful local information."
Th accommodation was warm (our visit was during a cold snap) and comfortable. We appreciated the little touches like eggs from their own hens, milk, biscuits and dog treats. The enormous smart TV with Netflix and Sky Cinema was much enjoyed, as was the power shower. Sadly we had to leave early because of inclement weather, but we recommend this cottage and had the best pub roast we've ever had at the nearby Bowling Green Inn.
Thank you so much for your very kind review. We hope you come again when the weather is kinder! Property Owner

"Thoroughly enjoyed our stay at Fox Cottage."
The property was lovely & clean & very comfortable. The hosts Mike & Tracie were very hopeful & any problems were sorted straight away , when our radiator 's didn't all heat up , Mike was round straight away to sort it which was a simple fix. The only thing I did miss was a chopping board in the kitchen , something to stand hit pans on & a microwaveable bowl. Apart from that we had a fantastic stay & Hooe to be back next year.
Thanks so much - we are glad you had a great time. There is a chopping board and a bowl but we will take on board your comment and get a skillet. We look forward to seeing you again Property Owner

"Thank you for a wonderful stay at fox cottage."
We had everything we needed for a comfortable stay- a well stocked kitchen and a perfect, small enclosed garden for our dog. We were recommended a wonderful pub and managed to reach both the Cotswolds and Malvern hills for walks. Thank you again for a great stay!

"We had a fantastic stay at Fox Cottage."
The owner offered a very warm welcome with fresh eggs from her hens; and fresh milk from the local dairy included in the welcome pack provisions. The Cottage itself was very pretty, clean and well equipped and in a quiet rural position - ideal for visits to Worcester and the Malvern Hills. All in all a great visit made all the better for the kind hospitality offered by the cottage hosts.

"Lovely property with easy access to the local attractions."
Our hosts where great and very helpful for local information. Great having fresh eggs and dog biscuits when we arrived. The chickens make a calming sound when you sit out with a coffee in the rear seating area. Breakfast at the local Churchfields Farm is excellent. You can also get fresh milk from here. We had a great time relaxing for the week and had great weather.
Thank you so much for such a lovely review and we are glad you had a great break. We hope to see you again . Property Owner

We had such a warm friendly welcome and everything was very clean and well equipped. Great location as loads of places to visit nearby.

"An excellent little holiday hide away and dog friendly too."
Some great walks locally and a farm cafe down the road with lovely cakes and dog friendly too. So many lovely little touches in the property including toiletries, jams, cakes, eggs and so much more. We felt very spoilt. The owners were so lovely and friendly and really thoughtful in providing extra bedding when my daughter joined me. A great place to stay.
Thanks so much for your kind feedback. Property Owner

"A beautiful cottage in wonderful surroundings."
Tracie and Mike gave us a lovely welcome and made sure that we were comfortable throughout our stay. No village pub to walk to but pubs and restaurants are only a short drive away.

Everywhere felt fresh and clean and the owner's thoughtful gift of fresh eggs and a token for the milk machine from the local farm shop was a lovely touch.

"Fox Cottage is a delightfully quirky little property, but with plenty of room for couple and dog."
Clean and well equipped. Friendly and helpful owners. Great location, easy stroll to canal for off lead dog walk. Would be very happy to return
-
"The hosts couldn't have been more welcoming and accommodating."
They gave us lots of great tips. The most important thing for us was how wonderful they are about dogs. We have an 11 month old labradoodle who is still learning how to behave in strange places but tracie put our mind at rest and the cottage is truly dog friendly even down to tracie filling a paddling pool for our pup to go in during the very hot weather. This is a gem of a place which we can't recommend highly enough.

"Really nice break."
The owners are very friendly - as is their cat. Very comfortable bed and lovely, good quality bed linen and towels. Excellent hot shower. I can't think of anything that we didn't have available in the cottage. Some nice walks nearby and Churchfields farm (about 10 mins. stroll away) looked really good for food etc but unfortunately it was closed during our stay. Very quiet location.

The hosts were extremely welcoming and ensured that we had everything we needed throughout our stay. We will definitely be returning to this beautiful cottage again soon!

"After a disappointing start to our holiday due to the Farmer in Hereford who should be struck off the Sykes Holiday Cottage listings we went to Mike & Tracie at Fox Cottage in Droitwich."
Absolutely amazing. We have been married 34 hrs but it definitely held a romantic atmosphere. Tacie, Mike and their pets were lovely people who went out of their way to make the rest of our holiday amazing. There cottage was beautiful and fully equipped. Just didn't want to come home.
