Lovely country side cottage
Great place if one wants to experience living in an old thatched cottage. Warm and cosy. Lovely to wake up to the country side views but at the same time close to enough to Worcester to have all the town’s facilities on hand
Stayed 7 nights in Dec 2019

Had a lovely christmas here thank you.
Had a lovely christmas here thank you. The house far exceeded our expectations as we thought the price was really cheap for christmas week in comparison to other cottages we had looked at. It truely is a very beautiful special house. The garden is amazing and i would love to see it in summer. I have only marked it down a bit on location just because the road is quite busy which would not be a problem but for that manhole on the road that gives a loud bang every time someone goes over it. Luckily the house is very well soundproofed. I cant believe no one has reported it to the council. So thank you to the owners for giving us the opportunity to live in a beautiful thatched cottage for a week
