"The cottage is well equipped, homely and spotless."
It is in a lovely village in a very beautiful part of Hampshire. The welcome wine and chocolates were much appreciated and our dog enjoyed the secure rear garden. My only “negative” would be the use of white blinds throughout - I’m sure these are very practical but (for me) I need to have a darker room, especially in summer months. This would not prevent me from re-booking as I would take an eye mask but I do like to be able to use darker curtains/blinds to stop the sun from heating up a room and from waking me up in the early hours on holiday.

"This cottage is the best we have ever stayed in, and we’ve holidayed in quite a few!"
The owners have thought of everything. This is your typical chocolate box ‘Escape to the country’ cottage. I think the fact my mum wants to live here says it all.

"Absolutely fabulous holiday cottage."
Could not have asked for more. Perfect get away for 3 generations of family.
The cottage was spotlessly clean and had all the comforts of home, with the best equipped kitchen we've ever seen in a holiday cottage.
The views from the kitchen and top of garden were lovely. I had my morning brew on the bench at the top of the garden each morning, before anyone else was awake and it was glorious and so quiet.
The village is exactly how you imagine a picturesque English village and everyone was so welcoming (not going to lie, I want to live there!). The fact that the corner shop and fantastic pub were just a few minutes walk away, made it even more enjoyable.
7 of us had our evening meals around the spacious dining table and had great fun playing the board games provided (articulate had us in tears from laughing).
The dogs also had a fantastic stay. They enjoyed the large, secure garden and beautiful walks around the village, and running in the fields behind the church.
Highly recommended cottage, which will be raving about for a long time.

A lovely spot with beautiful views and everything that was needed for a family break. The house was well equipped, clean and comfortable with plenty of space for 6 adults and a dog. The welcome pack was a thoughtful touch and unexpected, and we made use of the information pack to help plan our trips out.

The garden is secure, my 2 dogs loved it and had plenty of room to run around chasing each other. It is lovely to sit outside, peaceful with lovely views.

We are looking forward to returning in June for an another two weeks. I would highly recommend Little Fromans to anyone.

Well equipped, comfortable with a large fenced in garden for the dogs to run around in, and to have a lovely family reunion.

"We stayed for three weeks and have nothing but great things to say."
Lynne and Will (the hosts) and Shelagh (the house manager) were absolutely fabulous. They were responsive and helpful when we had questions and truly went above and beyond on a number of occasions (including when our cat went missing). The house is very comfortable and is extremely well equipped. A cleaning team changed over sheets and towels once a week and helped keep the property in tip top condition.
The back garden is enclosed and great for dogs but smaller pets may escape through the fencing (our cat did!). This is the 10th property we have stayed during our six month tour of the UK and rates as one of the best kept with the most helpful and genuine hosts we have had the pleasure to stay in. We were sad to leave. Highly recommend.
Little Fromans is near the centre of the village, a few minutes walk from the Crown Inn (nice atmosphere, decent pub grub) and the last remaining village shop which doubles up as Post Office, off licence and dry cleaner.
Kings Somborne is a super base for Hampshire generally including Winchester (15 mins drive) and Stockbridge (10 mins - which has a great array of independent shops including a greengrocer, deli, and butchers). Also easily accessible with a car are Southampton, Salisbury and Highclere amongst other places.
What an amazing review - thank you both very much! We are delighted that you enjoyed your stay at Little Fromans especially when you have so much to compare it to on your big road trip!
It was great to have you all! Property Owner

"We had a wonderful time celebrating my husbands 60th birthday."
The house is very spacious and well equipped, the kitchen had everything we needed, with plenty of crockery and utensils - the owners are clearly very thoughtful and considerate, and provided many extras that we would never have expected.
There was plenty of room to accommodate our party of 6 adults, and 1 dog. All of the beds are a good size, and very comfortable.
The garden is perfect for entertaining, we invited some family over on the Sunday - the children and dogs had a whale of a time, running around, and playing games.
The house is in a beautiful setting, and the quaint little village is just a short walk away, where there is a lovely dog friendly pub, The Crown Inn, we enjoyed a very good meal there.
A great location for many, beautiful country walks, we also spent a day in the city of Winchester, where we enjoyed it's amazing architecture, and history. We also visited a few of it's quirky pubs and bars - well worth the experience!

"It was all excellent and the owners came immediately to fix a minor fault."
The only comment we would make is that the lighting in the sitting room was not sufficient for sewing or reading, and the bedside light in the downstairs bedroom was not sufficient for reading.
We chose Little Fromans to be conveniently placed for the long-distance footpath between Salisbury and Winchester, The Clarendon Way, which we walked over four days as a sponsored walk to raise money for two local (to us) Shropshire charities. We were fortunate to have good weather and the whole week was a big success. It is a most lovely part of the country and well worth exploring. The house owners kindly took a great interest in what we were doing.

"This was a truly exceptional home and the owners were extremely helpful."
All four bedrooms are large, especially the master one with its walk through dressing room en-route to the shower/toilet. It comfortably sleeps nine and was perfect for us, three couples and two children. It is extremely well equipped with everything you need and a parking area which easily takes four cars. Great family dining room with a table easily seating 8, even 10! The location is wonderful, great views over a lovely village of thatched cottages with a very nice pub just five minutes down the hill. It's a short drive (15 minutes) to the picturesque towns of Stockbridge and Romsey. A very large Tesco is 25 minutes away on the outskirts of Winchester and a Waitrose can be found in Romsey. We simply loved the place!

"We expected a microwave even though not listed."
Also more than one key would be useful for 8 people. There were lots of cobwebs and we didn’t feel the house had been cleaned fully. There were beans still in the dishwasher. A good location with plenty of parking. Comfy beds and plenty of toilets. A nice garden. Good WiFi.

"We loved every moment of our time at Little Fromans!"
The cottage was perfect - welcoming, comfortable, spacious and spotlessly clean - and we all instantly relaxed there! The cottage has everything you could possibly need and feels like a home from home. The garden was wonderful and we would have spent all our time out there (including eating at the large outdoor table) had the weather been a bit better! The location is fantastic - peaceful and rural but just a couple of minutes walk away from a lovely pub! And we took full advantage of all the useful information in the cottage to help us - the selection of local walks was a lovely touch! Thank you so much. We will definitely be back and we will recommend Little Fromans to all our friends and family!
