  • "The cottage was very well-equipped and a lovely space."

    The beds were slightly bouncy/squeaky, which meant that we didn't always sleep very well but everything else was fantastic.

    Hi Caroline, our last guests left the morning of your arrival after staying in Beekeepers for 67 nights. They said the beds are very comfortable. I live on site, we spoke several times on your stay with recommendations on walks, cycle rides and places to eat out, not once did you mention the beds. As I say to all my guests if you have any issues or want any information etc to text me and I will text you back or come over if there is a problem with the cottage. Had you brought this issue to my attention, I could have resolved it. You also didn't mention you broke a cup in the hot tub on my inspection I saw two pcs of the handle and retrieved them then emptied the hot tub and vacuum it to make sure no one cut themselves. You only mentioned on the morning of your departure which would have been too late for the safety of the next guests arriving in the afternoon. Property Owner

    Chris the owner met us on arrival and provided us with all relevant information. He was on hand to answer any queries we may of had during our stay. The cottage is perfectly equipped and the beds are extremely comfortable! Very relaxing hot tub with only the sounds of the birds to be heard - perfect! The surrounding area is beautiful too. I just wish we had been staying for more than 3 nights! Thank-you, we would definitely recommend the cottage and hope to return in the future.

    Met by Chris who is such a wonderful host who has created a little haven of happiness for his guests to enjoy. The cottage is really well equipped and tastefully decorated. The hot tub is kept immaculate and it’s a lovely luxury added to a perfectly located cottage to explore Herefordshire and Wales. Secure garden for dogs and a wonderful field where dogs can run and children can play. The cottage has good parking, laundry room and fabulous underfloor heating . I’m a pretty fussy customer so for me to say yes I’d return 100% shows just how perfect this holiday was for us !

    Dear Rebecca and Wayne, thank you for your fantastic and honest review of Broxwood Barns. We are very happy that the whole family enjoyed your holiday and hope to see you soon. Chris and Nita. Property Owner

  • "Our stay at Beekeepers’ Cottage was the best family stay that we have ever experienced."

    We have stayed at many lodges & cottages, but the welcome that we had & the effort that Chris, the owner went to, was second to none. The cottage is very comfortable and the hot tub is set overlooking a beautiful tree-lined field, with deer, birds of prey & horses. We would definitely like to stay here again, as locally, it is very pretty, with very friendly locals, but we were very close to a lot of local, beautiful towns & cities & activities. We thought that there was something for everyone, both at the cottage & in the surrounding area. The tranquility at the cottage was palpable and relaxation was guaranteed. We would highly recommend
