Mrs East
October 2020

“The cleanliness of the living areas was ok apart from the accumulation of dust under the sofas, the significant number of cobwebs around the beams & lights, the greasy work surface around the hob and the dog hairs on some of the soft furnishings.”

There was nowhere to store footwear and no way to enter the cottage in muddy boots without getting mud everywhere. The guest information folder was incomplete - instructions for operating the heating were incomplete & unclear. We were asked to put the bins out on Sunday night for collection on Monday with no indication of where to put the bins. There was only one bin liner provided for the kitchen bin, the lid of which was broken.

“The barn conversion is finished to a high standard with lots of space and good amenities.”

The views outside the door are amazing and it’s extremely quiet. It’s also very warm with the underfloor heating. Dog walks just outside the door so our lab was very happy and I think he’s a bit depressed to have left now! Highly recommended

“Plum Tree cottage is stylish and comfortable.”

The views are gorgeous. Plenty of crockery and cutlery. Great barbecue, providing charcoal & lighter fluid a bonus. We had a lovely week there enjoying the fantastic walks available within a short distance. As always there were a couple of small negatives. The fridge has a very small freezer section suitable only for making ice cubes. All the important areas were very clean but it was quite dusty under the bed & sofa. The previous occupants hadn’t cleaned out the wood burner ( as requested in the instructions) but as the weather was so good we didn’t use it. Think it should be on the cleaner’s checklist. These are just observations as the cottage was one of the nicest we’ve stayed in & wouldn’t hesitate to recommend it.

“Plum Tree cottage was a great base for our week away.”

The cottage is lovely, with everything you need... Even dog biscuits and poo bags for our dog which was great! The location of the cottage is great, very easy to get to many places and beautiful views. A great find.

Lovely quiet location but good access to popular areas, Pershore was a favourite, lovely Georgian town with lots of nice walks, the cottage was ideal for us with a small dog

“Directions to the property are not accurate and the signage is old.”

Trying to find the property in the dark after a long journey, with a sign that has the *wrong name* and not facing the road is a challenge. Even the grocery delivery driver who was local couldn’t find the cottage! The ‘Fridge freezer’ turned out to be a fridge with a small freezer compartment at the top. For Christmas week, we could just about fit a bag of ice in and not much else from the other frozen food we had. Otherwise, a lovely stay in a well renovated barn with some nice extra touches in a very peaceful location. Great for children and our dog.
