A beautiful house in a fantastic area.

Beautiful house, lovely garden, nice little village

Impressed with the house, the photos in the listing don't do it justice. An old but very lovely house with plenty of space for 4 adults and 2 small dogs. Beautiful garden (fully walled/enclosed so dogs can run free), off street parking (although tricky with an SUV/big car!) and very comfortable. Can highly recommend.

Lovely country house in a small rural village. House dates back to 1600s. ( Low ceilings. Watch your head.). This not a holiday rental, so there are lots of signs indicating what is private. Great walk down to the canal and across the ridge to the countryside.
Village church
A great place to relax!
Borrowed view!

Beautiful Home, Great Location

Great location to explore south west England. Two nice bedrooms, plently of space downstairs - kitchen, sitting room, dining room, TV room. The patio and garden are beautiful. It had everything we needed, including two travel coffee mugs, so we could take our coffee with us! The town was very walkable, went to the local pub, the post office and walked around the beautiful church and churchyard. Everything was clean and fresh for our visit. I would recommend this place. My grandson loved it,

Quirky property

The property was very interesting. Lots of nooks and crannies and so many books on all subjects. The weather was splendid so we could enjoy the beautiful garden. We had our dog with us, the garden is fully enclosed so we knew she was safe if she went wandering. The property solid and was very cool when outside was really hot.

All that is pictured

A lovely historic end of terrace house and garden, as shown in its picture. We'd assumed that several homes were pictured, but this is all the destination. The interior is packed with vintage and antique objects so young children or dogs must be careful.

Character property

The property was much larger than expected and full of character, but is clearly someone’s home . The house is full of the owner’s possessions, too many books all over the place including by the toilet seat which isn’t very hygienic. There are 2 staircases which are out of bounds which I found quite unnerving as anyone could be hiding up there. The kitchen was quite small. Dirty dishcloth and washing up brushes. The microwave and fridge needed a deep clean. The pedal bin was broken. The plates and bowls were very old and cracked or chipped . The bathrooms were clean though (apart from used soap left). Bed comfortable , but only a quarter of the wardrobe available for guests as owners clothes were in there. The wood burner had not been cleaned out prior to our visit . The parking is quite tricky and quite hazardous parking on the busy road . The garden is large and well kept. Lovely walks nearby and a couple of decent pubs.

Thank you for your lovely note and we are glad you found the property homely, to be bigger than expected, and full of books and interesting artefacts which other guests have much appreciated. The off road parking area is via the gates to the house, as described in the welcome notes, if you chose to use it, tho we understand you preferred to park on the road instead. We have passed on your feedback to the housekeeper, for which many thanks, and the crockery is all new from Daylesford Organic and Brixton Pottery with some antique china available for those who enjoy that. We're glad you had a lovely time, and took the opportunity to explore all that the property and the area has to offer, whilst visiting those you know nearby, and thank you for having selected our property.

Het is een mooi huis, met vooral een prachtige tuin waar je bij mooi weer erg van zult genieten. Een aantal dingen zijn goed te weten voor het boeken. Het huis ligt aan een drukke doorgangsweg. Het huis lag voor ons te ver van alles wat de moeite waard is. Alle mooie natuurgebieden en steden zijn 30 min tot 1,5 uur rijden.Huis is van binnen echt gedateerd en staat helemaal vol oude spullen. Onze kinderen vonden het echt een griezelig huis… gewoon een stap terug in de tijd. Dat moet je kunnen waarderen.Wij waren er 30 minuten eerder en ontvingen daar een extra rekening voor, vonden we wat schraperig…In het dorp is niks te beleven, landschap erg saai, nogmaals daar moet je echt een stuk voor rijden om mooi te kunnen wandelen.

Thanks so much for your lovely note, and so glad you enjoyed the garden and other features. We are sorry your children didn't find the style of the house to their liking, and that the rural Wiltshire village of Seend was too far for you from ancient Bath (30 minutes), and Salisbury (40 minutes), but we hope you enjoyed it anyway! The village is a conservation area, with many listed buildings, and the views across the plains from the many footpaths, canal paths and lanes are unrivalled. There are numerous footpaths from the door, including a canal footpath network which runs for 90miles! Lots to choose from. We were pleased to be able to agree your request for an early check in at 3pm, an hour earlier than our official check-in time, for the pro rata hourly rate, agreed in advance, and would have loved to say hello to you - you arrived at the rear at 3pm as we left from the front! We gave you a 5 star review, and thank you for having chosen to come and stay.

Beautiful house and garden

We had a lovely stay in Seend at this property, which is beautiful and perfect for our weekend catch up with friends. The garden is large and tidy and we enjoyed having a BBQ. The area is very quiet and there is a nice pub within walking distance. We would recommend this house, which was larger than we expected! It felt very cosy at night.

Herrliches, historisches Anwesen

Das äußerst charmante und mit wertvollen Antiquitäten ausgestattete Cottage bietet alles, damit man sich in England zu Hause fühlen kann! Die Umgebung ist wunderschön, es gibt viele Spazierwege mit herrlicher Aussicht. Der eingezäunte Garten ist ideal für Familien mit kleinen Kindern und Haustieren. Edward ist ein hervorragender und charmanter Gastgeber, der uns persönlich in Empfang genommen hat und uns vertrauensvoll sein wunderschönes Haus überlassen hat. FeWo dient nur als Maklerportal, die eigentliche und herzliche Kommunikation erfolgt direkt mit dem Eigentümer. Vielen Dank, Edward, es war ein Höhepunkt unserer Reise!

Beautiful relaxing country retreat

This was the perfect getaway for the Easter holidays with the kids. The kids (3 and 5) enjoyed the well kept lawn for garden games and the patio dining area was fantastic when we had friends to visit for dinner. The home has a beautiful country charm. The kitchen although small was so well stocked with cupboard space and cooking utensils, just what we needed when cooking for friends. The house is well positioned for bike rides along the canal tow path. We had a wonderful time.

Lovely period home convenient to Salisbury, Bath, and Stonehenge

This is a lovely, excellently maintained and cared-for old coaching house. It is comfortable, spacious, and charmingly decorated. Very convenient for visiting local historical sites or for tramping through the scenic countryside.

I was extremely satisfied with my stay!

I was completely blown away when I walked through the doors and saw a beautifully updated cottage from 1700. It was charming yet very spacious. We made many day trips and the cottage was a perfect central location to them all. It was so nice to end the great day at our cozy home with multiple wood burning stoves, and wake up in this great homey space. Edward is a wonderful host!

Beautiful, cosy and very welcoming...

We spent Christmas 2017 at this very tastefully furnished cottage. Thanks to the owners for putting up a. Christmas Tree and other decorations - it was so thoughtful! Perfect for the dogs and plenty of walks from the cottage too. I can thoroughly recommend it as a getaway place.

A beautiful house, very tastefully decorated. The gardens are just as beautiful!

We had a great stay at Greenheys. Four friends and I wanted a weekend retreat away to someone quaint and with good local walks - this suited us perfectly! We found a lovely pub down the road and had a refreshing walk along the canal. The house is wonderful, old and beautifully decorated. The gardens are very pretty too!

Thank you for your lovely note and we are so pleased that you enjoyed your stay at Greenheys. It is fun to walk along the canal, which is just across the fields and at the bottom of the ridge on which Seend sits. We would be delighted to welcome you back any time. Thank you for having come to stay. With very best wishes to you.
