  A perfect place in a beautiful rural setting, but within easy reach by car to lots of very beautiful towns and villages (independent shops, clean, no empty shops!

  ). We absolutely loved this cottage and will definitely come back, we also loved the whole area. We normally go to the Cotswolds, but chose this cottage because it had everything we needed and felt like a change. Boy were we pleased we did. In short Stable Cottage absolutely perfect, but importantly the surrounding area, towns and villages also fantastic too. Our whole party really enjoyed the break. The cottage is absolutely wonderful inside with everything we needed. We specifically needed a double bed and walk in shower down stairs, plus anther double bedroom with shower or bath. This was because we were travelling with very elderly parents. The hot tub, which is wood fired was brilliant and as it sits in a very sheltered and secluded area so even though there was a severe rain weather warning during that time and the temp dropped to around 16c it was still absolutely lovely to sit outside and go in the hot tub which we went in for several hours for 3 of our 4 days. The cottage had a really handy large boot room so all your clutter could happily sit out there. I also like to cook whilst away. The kitchen, although a little small (mainly available counter space), was very well fitted out with absolutely everything you could ever need (even a washing machine!) and the items were all of a high standard (ie no useless knives or can openers etc). Belinda and Mike were wonderful, lovely and helpful, always around if you needed anything, but not if you didn’t. Lots of walks from the cottage. We also visited Hereford Castle (needed to be in the summer months I think to get the splendour of the gardens- we went end Sept). Hereford – lovely worth a visit , ate at the Beefy Boys – very nice, Worcester, again lovely. Both towns vibrant, lots of independent shops (including modal shops for the husband) and very clean. We had a truly outstanding meal (tapas) at the Unwind Bar – definitely worth a visit. If you go on a Thursday and spend more than £40 on Tapas, you can get a bottle of wine at 50% off. We went for a red from Puglia at £29 per bottle (£14.50 with the discount) honestly one of the most beautiful reds I have ever tasted. So good we are going to import some in for ourselves.

  The perfect break!

  What a little gem of a property. Myself, my wife and our little dog stayed at The Croft to celebrate our 1st year wedding anniversary. The house is surrounded by areas of outstanding natural beauty which made great walks, with a welcome stop at a local pub for lunch. Malvern hills, wye valley and Cotswolds wildlife park and Zoo were just a few of the highlights. The house itself was absolutely outstanding. The level of care when we arrived shone through (from little chocolates by the bed and milk in the fridge to an anniversary card). The owners live next door and are the kindest loveliest people you could ever wish to meet! They do not intrude on your holiday at all. The grounds surrounding the house are quite difficult to put into words - a private forest, pond/lake and wonderful farm animals. Our little dog was really in his element here and we were too! The hot tub was a welcome way to end the day. Highly recommend staying here! It is a great place to unwind. We also purchased some lovely meat from the owners farm which is absolutely delicious. Thank you Sally and Steve!

  Superb property sitting in a beautiful valley.

  Lots of walks within the immediate area. Exceptionally dog friendly. The 'boot room' was excellent for sorting two legged and four legged 'muddy paws'. It was also a very cool bedroom for our pup. Lots of animals (chickens,sheep,horses) around too. Owners dog is very friendly. Somewhere you need to go if you really want to chill out and relax. You could spend a week just walking the grounds and watching the stars from the hot tub. The grounds are set up in the most beautiful english cottage garden style with the beehives (in the top field away from the houses), completing the English Cottage garden theme. The owners are very helpful but also very discreet. Whilst there are a couple of cottages and some fab 'glamping' tents, the set up is such that you feel you always have your own private space. The very yummy welcome 'crate' was a nice surprise too, (by both the human members and the dog). Six out of five stars!

  For the first time we found a place that actually was as it said on the tin, but 10 times better !

  !! believe me when we say the owners are very nice down to earth people that have tried their best to give you a relaxing place to really enjoy your holiday, everything you could wish for is to hand, and if by chance you do need more you only have to ask the owners, Sally and Steve, wonderful people, yes it is a working farm, but from where the accommodation is you would never know, you are right by a lake which can be fished, (60MTRS) there are tree lined wooded walks, very good in the heat for our Dog Bella, and very very quiet. I believe we had the hottest week there of this year, my Wife spent most of the time in the Hot Tub, why not !!!!!!! Highly Recommended.

  This is our second visit to the Croft, it was in our view better that the first, but nothing had changed within the Croft, my Wife is over the moon with the Croft the location and especially the Hot Tub!

  ! I feel exactly the same, Sally and Steve are incredibly genuine people, who are prepared to help with anything and everything, and at the same time they never intrude, we were fortunate to be there when the Farmers Market was taking place, highly recommended, little bits of everything. In honesty the pictures do not do the place justice, it really is a very very special place, long walks round the lake and through the woods, ideal if you have a Dog, also a separate field which is closed off so any Dog can run free, will we go back, try and stop us !!!!! If you stock up on food you really do not have to leave the Croft, as it is based for some really nice walks.
