Not very clean

Old cottage with character

Stayed in July 2024

Well, if you prefer being away from the main road you'll be disappointed on that score. Traffic is supposedly slowed to 40 through the village but it's a very busy road. I make sure to take earplugs when I travel, and was glad of these as some road noise comes through the closed windows at night, but my friend did not use earplugs and did not find the noise an issue.

Location very convenient for walking the Cotswold Way as it's right on it. Having a convenience store at the petrol station next door is very convenient. My friend and I both really liked the collection of artefacts/ornaments dotted around the cottage - quite eccentric in an appealing way. We also appreciated the oldness of the building. The beds were comfortable - mine dipped in the middle but I still found it comfortable and slept well. The lounge is small but has several comfortable chairs and would easily be fine for 3 people, probably 4. Two bathrooms, both with showers, is convenient.

The traffic and road noise is quite something including overnight No WiFi information

Comfortable and perfectly situated for visiting the surrounding area. Staff on arrival were very friendly. Lovely old building.

The downstairs toilet had a problem with the flush, it was frequently flushing by itself which was annoying, it also had a leak. The stove was too difficult to operate and the host didn’t not leave any instructions. I texted the host and he took at least 30 minutes to reply. His reply wasn’t so helpful so we ended up not using it. It was very disappointing. The main garage gate does not close so there was no privacy and security.

Most necessities were available the property location was also good, it was about 20 minutes away drive to the city centre.

Dusty .. although it gives it character, my mum is asthmatic so she had an asthma attack on our first night due to dust.

I like this quaint cottage. Old memorabilias added character to the cottage. It is cosy and in a very good location. Smooth check in and check out ... has nice space outside the cottage, spacious car park.

The road in front of the house is busy but we knew this before and didn’t mind.

A lovely cottage, very clean, with comfortable beds and everything one might need. Parking in the yard in front of the entrance. Good walking options for our dogs. Contact with the owner friendly and easy. All very good and to recommend!

Very uncomfortable mattress and small bed made our sleep interrupted. Also no double bed or enough space to join two single beds. Hence this is not ideal for couples. This accommodation is not suitable for people with mobility issues as the floor is uneven and very steep/narrow stairs.

Very friendly host who met us on arrival and it was really a hassle free check-in. The building was a pub and so it would be a very enjoyable experience for anyone likes the traditional English buildings. Wifi is available although on it is shown as 'not available' on booking.com. Nicely located to travel to Bath, pubs and farms. A shell petrol station is close-by which is very convenient to buy basic food and drinks. Ample on-site parking spaces too.

The smell....the property was was in need of a deep clean, although the bedding was clean

It was fairly spacious

It’s by the main road and cars and trucks sped pass throughout the night. It’s therefore quite noisy. Also as we arrived late in the evening I didn’t see the blind for the skylight until the next morning (which can be closed if you stand on the bed)and the lights from the vehicles disturbed the sleep. There is one small room downstairs (no windows) and two upstairs (all rooms with single beds); the stairs are quite narrow and steep so it does not suit people with mobility issues and parents need to be careful with young children. The upstairs shower gel dispenser was broken. Judging by the fact that the shampoo box has run out and the shower gel is half full, it probably has been broken for quite some time and is not fixed. Downstairs bathroom shower gel and shampoo boxes were also empty. After shower I found some half used small travel kit shower gels (hotel ones. not sure if left behind by earlier guests). The feeling is that the owner can’t be bothered to check, or to give instructions to guests ~ there’s no instruction whatsoever apart from how to get the key.

Easy access. It’s by the road so you lose no time travelling north the next day. The cottage has some china displays and they brighten up the house.

Being right beside the A46, it was quite noisy at night with passing HGVs etc (earplugs solved that problem). It was extremely difficult to turn right out of the property in the car, due to the busyness and speed of vehicles on the road, especially at peak times - needed to take great care!

This was in a great location for getting to the P&R for Bath - only a 7 minute drive to the nearest P&R ( Lansdown Park). House right beside the Cotswold Way (long distance walk) with beautiful rural scenery after only a few minutes walking. Very quaint house, homely and comfortable - it used to be a pub so has some interesting features. Useful to have Shell garage with Londis shop and Costa Coffee next door. Despite my Booking.com receipt misleadingly saying there was no parking or wifi, there are both.

Clean and quirky little place, has everything you need and a good location near main road. Although some furnishings are very tired and could be updated fairly easily.

There were no baking trays that we could find. The road that the cottage is on is very busy. We could not hear the road from inside but had to be very careful not to let our dog out when we opened the front door. There were gates from the road but they did not close.

Immediate access to the Cotswold Way was a real bonus.

It is on the main road into Bath so not great for summer but easy to get into town .Taxi ride about 20 pounds. Nice owners.

Lovely, quiet little cottage. Really good value for money. Right next to a petrol station with a little shop. Was able to get an Uber into town and back with no problems. Fun and quirky décor. I went with a friend, we were both able to have our own space and WC/shower.

Easy to find and access. Very cosy quaint cottage.

Slightly difficult to find in the dark, didn’t realise to look out for the bollards!

Cottage was warm & cosy, bedding clean, owners were helpful.

You have to advise about the stairs. Very dangerous stairs , an older person will struggle. All single beds. Not very comfortable

It was clean, cute kitchen, with all you need.

Fust in the living room, I foung a moulded piece of Pizza and a chokolate bar in the gap between sofa cushions. Slaters were falling from a gap in the ceiling on my daughters pillow, not only one! But worst was the noise from the very busy road all night.

Unfortunately we were unable to stay at all. My wife has mobility issues and could not cope with the uneven floors and all the different levels and steps. I can appreciate it is an old property and not suitable for all but we would not have booked if it had been highlighted in the property listing it was not suitable for us. We tried to give it a fair go but to get from the only bedroom she could get to, the trip from there through the kitchen to the downstairs toilet/ shower presented so many trip hazards it would have been dangerous for her. I would hope reading this the owners would change the listing and offer at least a partial refund of the booking fee. I might add also that the property was not particularly clean.
