The perfect location for a family reunion.

The cottages are well equipped and very comfortable. Host Jessica could not have been more helpful from our first contact to the last. Nothing was too much trouble. Jessica’s help with finding good local places to eat and visit was invaluable. The community shop and cafe on site were also a boon.

Idyllic family break

Beautiful barns, set in a picturesque village. We booked all the barns and thus had a private garden to ourselves which the kids loved. The owner, Jessica is amazing and friendly too. Nothing was too much bother for her

Lovely relaxing break

Pear Tree cottage was the perfect place for myself, my partner and our 3 dogs for a relaxing break. We loved having coffee on the patio in the morning, watching all the birds while our dogs explored the garden hunting the "wild biccies" we'd put out for them 😁 The only slight niggle was that we would have packed things like cling film, foil, oil and vinegar had we known there wasn't any available.. we've usually found these provided in other self catering places we'e been to

Our stay in Pear Cottage was absolutely delightful and we & the dog felt very much at home.

We loved the quiet location, the beautiful surroundings, the convenient & well-equipped Community Shop on our doorstep, the warm and friendly welcome, the beautifully designed interior, comfortable beds, homely feel and dog-friendliness. It was everything we'd hoped for and we'd certainly come back again.

Five comfortable nights in Hampstead Norreys reconnecting with family and enjoying village life.

Ours was a repeat visit as the location continues to be perfect for our purposes. The cottage was comfortable and well appointed and the adjacent village shop meant that we never ran short of essentials. The management were friendly and helpful.

Comfortable clean accommodation in a lovely setting.

Mix of business and pleasure. Very comfortable in Pear tree Cottage once we'd figured out how to switch the heating off ;)
Response from VrboOwner on 2 Oct, 2023
I am glad you had a good stay here. Thank you for the feedback. We always like to know where we can improve. Sorry to hear the window was stuck - it had been painted recently and must have swelled in the weather. All fixed. Each cottage does have full cooking equipment but the casserole dish may have been borrowed by the previous guests for a large group. Very sorry
