A unique property

We wanted to visit Bletchley Park so Yew Tree Cottage was in a perfect location for us. The house is extraordinary - old and very interesting. It worked well for us, but the irregular height of stairs and steps, doors and the slopes on floors upstairs might be too much for some. The kitchen is very well equipped and the house was a very cosy place to return to after our visits to Bletchley and Stowe House and Gardens.

Picture post card cottage

This was one of our favourite places we have stayed in. So much character. There was plenty of everything to use for 12 people. The only thing I would say is perhaps more seating in the garden but apart from that everything else was perfect for our group of 12 ladies of all different ages.

Beautiful house

The house is beautiful, full of character with uneven floors in places. A good big garden to run around, well equipped kitchen. And it was lovely to have an open fire.

Great for a large group

We were always cosy during our stay at Yew Tree Cottage, with plenty of spaces to get together as one group or separate into smaller gatherings as we desired. As a several hundred year old thatched cottage some of the uneven floors, level changes and low doorways might prove challenging to more mobility restricted guests, though not a problem for us. A couple of minor issues were resolved promptly by the hosts, for which we were very grateful. It gave us everything we needed to enjoy our few days of celebration together.

Family Get-together

The cottage was welcoming and very clean. Kitchen was well equipped. House charming, the children loved it and the garden and will have happy memories of our stay. A good supply of indoor games. We had to take care with low beams and walk carefully up the stairs. Also there are slanting floors in some bedrooms, which is only to be expected with a property of that age. Communication with the owner was good. Well done YTC Team for your hard work and attention to detail.
