  The listing was inaccurate, it states that the double bedroom has an ensuite, with an additional family bathroom with walk in shower.

  In reality, the twin room has the ensuite, and there is no walk in shower in the family bathroom. Because the whole family likes to have showers, we all had to use the children's ensuite, which was inconvenient overall the standard of accommodation was good, the setting was lovely and the owner Jane was very helpful when we pointed out some problems we were having including getting a new dishwasher fitted immediately! The following are some minor problems:- we had a problem with the dishwasher but as I have noted already Jane dealt with this as soon as we raised it. there were no instructions for the washer / dryer and it was difficult to work out how to work it - Jane did print out some instructions she found on the internet for us in double room, one side of bed did not have bedside lamp (because to do so would have blocked of access to cupboard) - this meant that only one of us could have the bedside lamp on to read The maximum temperature on the shower could have been a bit higher the main issue for us was the inaccurate listing, it is unlikely we would have booked the cottage, if we knew the reality of the bathroom situation - we made Jane aware of the inaccurate listing

  We had a fabulous week staying in this apartment and Downderry.

  It is wonderfully located to the beach, which is beautiful and not over crowded even in half term. If you want a slightly more active beach, but still not crowded, stroll along the shore to the right and you’ve got it, along with more places to eat. The apartment had almost everything needed; it lacked a drying rack which sounds silly to worry about but you either have to use the tumble dryer or hang over the outside furniture. Not a big deal but one I wasn’t expecting. Cleanliness took a slight hit because when I went to use it it had the last guest spilt food in it, but we didn’t use it in the end anyway in the end. The thoughtfulness for our dog was a lovely touch. We took our own bed and blankets but the provided ones were a bonus as meant extra covers so he could come up on the sofa which he loves. The view was amazing to wake up to and have sundowners to. But I can honestly say, the mattresses and pillows were by far the comfiest I have slept on when staying in a holiday home. I now want to change all mine! I would highly recommend staying here to anyone if you’re reading the reviews to help make up your mind.

  We had such a brilliant stay at Little Winder, the cottage was perfect for us and our little dog.

  We enjoyed walks from the door step, (Including Athur’s Pike and Bonscale Pike) watched the red squirrels playing in the trees from the window and slept peacefully after days of hiking. The location and views from the cottages was superb. The cottage itself has a good sized entrance hall to take off your walking gear and a shared drying room next door to hang anything wet out on the heaters. The Amazon TV was great and we just logged into our Netflix in the evening or watched the free view channels from the comfy sofa. Kitchen had everything we needed to cook tea each night, there isn’t a freezer on its own just a small compartment in the fridge but we only needed ice so no issue for us. The bed was big and comfortable, the shower was compact but lovely and powerful and hot. There was a secure dog field to let the dog off the lead and have a good play. The hosts were brilliant, made sure we had everything we needed and left us a welcome gift which was such a nice touch. We would definitely stay again.

  Byways is beautifully comfortable and decorated in a relaxed and contemporary but luxurious style.

  It has been thoughtfully furnished, creating spaces both for relaxing together and for enjoying some quiet space. The wood-fired hot tub was fun for everyone, kept its heat well and was easy to use - we rather enjoyed getting the fire going to quickly bring it up to the right temperature! We were particularly delighted with the location of Byways: Madresfield is ideal for quiet strolls and as a starting point for longer walks; with an easy 15 minute drive you can be walking up in the Malverns with truly incredible views; in 10 minutes you can be in Malvern for a coffee; in 7 minutes you can be at the station to take the 10 minute train journey to the centre of Worcester; and you can drop in to a proper supermarket on the way back to the cottage for a peaceful evening, cooking and relaxing together. Perfection. This has been one of the best cottages we've stayed in - thank you for a very special holiday

  My friend and I plus my 2 dogs spent Christmas at Woodlands cottage.

  I wouldn’t normally stay in a cottage attached to the owner’s house but I want to thank Jane for being so welcoming , to the point where my friend felt comfortable enough to ask for some flour she’d needed and I felt comfortable walking my dogs around the beautiful grounds. My friend is a chef and she was impressed with the kitchen quality. I found the bed very comfortable which is important. Very handy to have 2 sofas and 2 bathrooms. The weather was atrocious but we hunkered down. We did think the wood burner was real and were a little disappointed to find it was electric, but that was our mistake. The WiFi isn’t great but my friend was able to make zoom calls so it was adequate. Spotlessly clean , a bit draughty and cold but it was December in the middle of a 3 day storm ! The garden was enclosed and safe for the dogs which was very important . An enjoyable stay .
