As hoped for and more.

The holiday home was spacious and had all we needed and more. The rooms were comfortable with a functional living room. Any queries were responded quickly and there was a delicious cake in the fridge when we arrived! The hot-tub was a great extra.

Relaxing Stay in the country.

Our family of five spent a week over new Year in Clive's cottage. It is very well equipped and there was ample space for all of us. Set on a Golf Course it was very peaceful and relaxing. Its location is also very convenient for visiting all the nearby tourist attractions. The staff were also very polite and helpful

Quiet cottage on a beautiful golf course

We thoroughly enjoyed our stay here. The fully equipped cottage is situated next to a small pond on the golf course that provides bucolic views. The main lounge area opens up to a small fenced garden area allowing enjoyment of the clean air. There is also a small, reasonably priced restaurant across the parking lot. We especially enjoyed the delicious surprise on the table upon arrival!

Clean,& reasonable comfortable,with good golf !

Lounge Area a bit small for 4, Television also on the small side, a big one on the end wall would have been fab as Wimbledon week ! The fridge also a bit small struggled to keep much in it. Lovely setting and we throughly enjoyed the golf , though weather was a little on the dull/windy side to make the most of the garden area !

Lovely well equipped cottage

Three bedroomed cottage - all bedrooms roomy with good storage space. The kitchen / lounge a little on the small side, but still sufficient for our family of 5. Very well equipped kitchen, so good for self catering. Could have done with a few more mugs, but other than that great. Plenty of nice touches including a great big cake, tea, coffee & milk on arrival. Good fishing to be had right outside which was a big plus for my husband. Definitely be visiting again.

Thank you so much for taking the time to write this review. I'm so glad you enjoyed your stay. Sounds like I had better get across to the cottage with some new mugs!

About the host

Hosted by Tilly

Host profile image
Mother & Daughter team, Julie and Tilly passionately people & planet friendly!

Why they chose this property

Not your typical golf course, everyone is welcome at Colmworth - with dog walks from the doorstep, a cafe just a stones throw away serving homemade cakes and local produce.

What makes this property unique

Not only do we boast stunning views, we're planet friendly too!
The cottages are heated by a renewable energy source - biomass boiler, we use local small businesses to supply our cafe and cottages - including the super "fill re-fill" house collection. Our linen is all washed with re-fill products and line dried wherever possible.
