It has all the facilities you need and all the instructions and information you could ask for. We have nothing negative to say about the house and would certainly recommend it.

The property was clean, comfortable and very well kitted out for self catering. There were lovely touches, like the white fluffy towels and comfy throws. The owners had thought of everything to enable the property and the visit to be fully enjoyed.

The property was spotlessly clean and fully equipped with everything you could need. Great location and walking distance to Wotton Under Edge town. Lovely to read the story of the owners family, and the cottage, and the pride the owner has in sharing this.
