“Very poor – not as described Extremely disappointed with this stay. The property was dirty on arrival (sink, oven, shower, and even the dishwasher full of dirty pots). Towels smelled awful, even the replacements. Multiple issues throughout: - Oven/microwave didn’t work - Toilet constantly running - Windows dirty, some mouldy, and not closing properly - Poor lighting and impractical layout Basic essentials were missing or wrong: - Only half a toilet roll for 3 people - No welcome pack (despite being advertised) - No instructions for anything - Incorrect WiFi details - No cleaning equipment Also had safety concerns (no outside lighting on stairs). Complaints were poorly handled – including the suggestion of sending a 12-year-old to clean, which was completely inappropriate. No proper resolution during the stay. Overall, not clean, poorly maintained, and not worth the money. Would not return.”

“We had a great holiday and would have given a five star review. However we left a glowing review with one area we thought needed improvement. The company then edited the review and took the comment out. So I don’t trust their reviews.”

“Excellent accommodation and exactly as described. I love the need to know section which encapsulates all the relevant information in a simple menu. A welcome pack was included which was appreciated as it contained milk and cereal and prosecco! I have used holidaycottages.co.uk several times for family breaks and have always been happy with my choice based on the information given.”

“We had a fantastic long weekend at this wonderful cottage - we were welcomed with a beautiful Easter hamper with local produces. The cottage had everything we needed and more. We loved the area as well - great hikes and pubs to finish - would definitely go back”

“We were a party of 3 couples, on arrival the outside looks a bit dated, once inside, absolutely wonderful, my husband and I had the ground floor room and used the wet room / wc for our own and the other couples had the 2 double rooms upstairs each with their own bathrooms, the kitchen and utility room had everything you could possibly need. The pub was about 20 mins walk, dog friendly and the regular customers and staff were all lovely, we had 3 dogs with us so after we walked back we had a takeaway curry delivered from a list the owners provided, it was delicious .. the nights were chilly over Easter and we lit the log burner with logs provided and brought a few more while out on our travels. The dining area was great for eating together and the living room whilst quite small was very comfy and as well as the television there were games provided. We used the washing machine - tablets were provided. We would not hesitate to rebook as we all had a wonderful time ☺️ hope this helps you decide.”

“Good quality accommodation in a unique setting next to the club house on a golf course. Highly recommend for anyone wanting to combine a short break with a round of golf or to just explore the area. Only issue was a lack of cooking utensils hence the 4 stars.”
