What our customers say about their holidays

  We thoroughly enjoyed our stay at the cottage.

  Just a few suggestions to improve things; A proper chest of drawers is badly needed in the master bedroom. We were alone so put our cases on the spare bed and lived out of them. If we’d had company this would have been an issue. The utility room was very cluttered and we struggled to get out of the back door without high chairs, mop buckets, mops and ironing board falling over! The heating was a challenge. All we wanted to do was turn it off! We don’t feel the cold, especially at night, and had a constant battle with the hive which kept reverting to previous settings. The only way to turn it off properly is to turn the radiators down on the boiler and several notices say not to touch this. The large plates in the rack are too tall for the dishwasher and stop the rotary arm turning. Hence previous feedback re dirty dishes in cupboard. Hilarious arrangement with the sink tap being screwed to a block of wood! Bit of a bodge up there! So, minor niggles aside, the cottage was lovely. Bed comfy, despite comments re dogs escaping the garden, it was perfect for our Jack Russell and unless you own a gazelle, it’s not escaping! We had everything we needed, including great WiFi and Broadway is so lovely we managed to arrange a further 2 nights at the last minute, the evening before and out of working hours. Big thanks for this to the very lovely housekeeper who agreed to come and clean on a Sunday and who also left the house beautifully clean for our arrival, plus texted us to let us know it was ready earlier than expected on arrival day. Big thanks also to Millie at Manor Cottages for dealing with our request so late in the evening, at about 8.30pm the night before we were due to leave. Would we stay there again? Yes we would; it was a wonderful holiday. A great base for the area.

  We were celebrating our Golden Wedding We were met by the hosts who helped us carry our baggage down to the cottage.

  My sister in law who had travelled with us has recently had a spinal operation, and was finding walking a challenge. She was assisted down to the cottage. It was December 15th When I walked in the door of the chalet there was a fully decorated Christmas tree and on the dining room table a vase with an arrangement of yellow roses and a card wishing us all the best for the occasion. We had a wonderful stay. The chalet met all our needs. It was clean light warm and convenient. During the week we were able to meet with some of our friends on different days. They had both attended our wedding in Nairobi. One was a bridesmaid. Our son and his family farm nearby and were also able to visit on different occasions. The chalet had double doors that opened out on a veranda. This enabled us to keep to the then restrictions of being able to meet six people outside. We were most impressed by the thought and care that had obviously gone into the arrangement of the chalets. I was able to work on my son's farm during the week. When I returned it was getting dark and the security lights came on and the path down to the chalet door was lit by fairy lights. It was details like this that impressed us. We would certainly like to return at some date when restrictions all. From three very satisfied customers, Charles and Margaret Shaylor and Elizabeth Dain.

  What an amazing find.

  Broadway village is on the same road as Pennylands and is literally a mile away which is perfect if you like a tipple or two. Judi and Glen were perfect hosts and have equipped the lodge’s with everything you need. We had a fully English breakfast several days and I made us dinner one evening too. The open plan living made it a joy for me to cook whilst looking at the stunning views. The beds were so comfortable and each bed had firm and soft pillows. There are two fantastic en-suite bathrooms which was brilliant as we were a party of two couples. We had the twin room which made a nice change as my other half fidgets. There were complimentary sachets of hot chocolate and a selection of biscuits waiting for us along with milk, tea, coffee, sugar and several cleaning and bathing products which was very welcomed. In our opinion the lodges are first class and the location is perfect. We ate at the Swan which was delicious. We also tried a chippy tea take away from Russell’s Fish & Chips which was so reasonably priced and actually cheaper than where we live in Four Oaks, Sutton Coldfield. We would recommend a visit to Bourton-on-the-Water and Moreton in the Marsh. All in all, a thoroughly relaxing and enjoyable stay with amazing hosts that are on hand and really helpful.

  Overall very happy with the cottage, good size for 2 couples and a child, maybe a bit of a squeeze for 3 couples.

  Stairs are quite steep, not a problem for us but would be for the less mobile. Garden and patio a nice size and gets the sun all afternoon and evening. Garage is handy to have, we had a Golf, you could get a slightly longer car in and a touch wider but a BMW 3 Series size car prob the limit although the parking in front of the garage is fine for any size vehicle. We stayed when it was 32 degrees C for a few days, we'd seen the forecast so we brought 3 electric fans with us, without these the bedrooms would have been uncomfortable at night - for the cost of £20 per fan, they would be a good addition for each bedroom as they take a lot of room up in the car. The property was clean on arrival, shame you can't access it before 6pm, there were one or two very small cobwebs near the windows but the windows had been left open due to the heat, we live in a rural area and know that spiders soon spot an open window! Overall we had a lovely time and would stay again.

  Lovely cosy cottage set in the heart of Broadway with access to the cotswolds walk/Broadway tower walk within a few meters.

  Beds comfortable, kitchen is large and bright and has everything you need plus a great range cooker for those who like to cook! Dog friendly enclosed south facing garden with views across the fields. Attention is needed to dusting the light fixtures as they are covered with a thick layer and cob webbs ( it’s been a long time since they have been dusted, there’s general everyday dust and then there is not been dusted in a long time and the fixtures have been neglected). The shower head in the en-suite needs replacing as it doesn’t work very well having said that the shower in the main bathroom is great.This has not put us off and we are booking to stay here again. The issues are quick fixes. There is a nice feeling when you walk in and I can’t quite put my finger on it.. just some places you have a nice feeling and this is one of them.
