A lovely little place in a pretty village location. Comfortable cottage with everything you need provided. A bit of a problem with the shower attachment but we managed to get by for a weekend stay. Next door to the village pub - nice food and not noisy at night. Location offers plenty of walks suitable for your four legged friends but watch out for the grouse in the fields if they like to chase birds! ##### Kazbett This review comes from a trusted partner site and has not been verified. ### 8/10 Good #### Ray 18 Jul 2020 #### Well managed and ideally located for our stay. Well managed and ideally located for our stay. Kitchen thoughtfully equipped with all needs. Lack of a shower was a minor negative but otherwise a great experience. The pub next door is very nice .... though possibly habit forming!

The cottage is well equipped and in a very pleasant village setting. Though we found the cottage comfortable, we think it would be totally unsuitable for a family with young children or adults with low mobility because of the steep spiral staircase. The shower does not work so the bath has to be used. The main bedroom has a large bed which fills the room so that anyone sleeping on the left side has to climb out over the rt hand occupant if necessary during the night. There is an open fire but little kindling was provided and was damp. There was very little information on facilities eg restaurants pubs shops etc in the area and no map of the area, something which we have always found before in properties. We have stayed in better properties for a lower cost. ##### Harry This review comes from a trusted partner site and has not been verified. ### 8/10 Good 23 Jun 2019 #### Lovely cottage with everything you need, however a shower would be nice.

However the seating and the beds were very comfortable and it was nice and warm. The modern ambience of the building was very pleasant. Being set on the village green among the trees, by a smart pub and pretty cottages but with access to Subury suited us. ##### IRENE This review comes from a trusted partner site and has not been verified. ### 8/10 Good 31 Dec 2018 #### Good area great walks lots to see around the area, very good pup next door wonderful menu and real a Good area great walks lots to see around the area, very good pup next door wonderful menu and real ale, cottage had all amenities but could do with a general tidy up.

Slightly dated in places, but everything worked, so it didn't really matter that things looked a bit dated as it was all well kept. The only drawback is the shower - it's a handheld shower-head only, which worked, but was awkward to use. The bath was spacious and clean though. ##### Meg This review comes from a trusted partner site and has not been verified. ### 8/10 Good #### Trevor 10 Dec 2018 #### The cottage was clean and tidy, We had a friendly welcome from the caretaker. The cottage was clean and tidy, We had a friendly welcome from the caretaker. The cottage is close to a lovely dog walk that starts alongside the beer garden of next doors pub. The food in the pub is excellent and there is a local butcher on the green. Despite there being a pub next door the area is actually quiet. The only downside is the stairs, they are not for the faint hearted. We will book this cottage again. ##### Trevor ## Expedia's Latest Trends ### Hotels > [Guinness Arms](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Bury-St-Edmunds-Hotels-Guinness-Arms.h40183239.Hotel-Information) > > [Royal Whitby](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Whitby-Hotels-The-Royal-Hotel.h57917040.Hotel-Information) > > [Last Drop Village Hotel and Spa](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Bolton-Hotels-Last-Drop-Village-Hotel-And-Spa.h9341.Hotel-Information) > > [DoubleTree by Hilton Cheltenham-Cotswolds](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Cheltenham-Hotels-Doubletree-By-Hilton-Cheltenham.h65899.Hotel-Information) > > [ibis budget Manchester Airport](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Manchester-Hotels-Ibis-Budget-Manchester-Airport.h75715089.Hotel-Information) > > [De Vere Tortworth Court](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Bristol-Hotels-De-Vere-Tortworth-Court.h570412.Hotel-Information) > > [The Bell Hotel](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Bury-St-Edmunds-Hotels-The-Bell-Hotel.h2057789.Hotel-Information) > > [DoubleTree by Hilton Hotel and Spa Chester](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Chester-Hotels-DoubleTree-By-Hilton-Hotel-And-Spa-Chester.h527788.Hotel-Information) > > [Redworth Hall Hotel](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Newton-Aycliffe-Hotels-Redworth-Hall-Hotel.h517266.Hotel-Information) > > [Lakes Hotel and Spa](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Windermere-Hotels-Lakes-Hotel-And-Spa.h901040.Hotel-Information) > > [Rural retreat in the grounds of West Stow Hall](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Bury-St-Edmunds-Hotels-Rural-Retreat-In-The-Grounds-Of-West-Stow-Hall.h44433929.Hotel-Information) > > [Cave Hotel & Golf Resort](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Faversham-Hotels-Cave-Hotel-Golf-Resort.h33410673.Hotel-Information) > > [Hampton by Hilton Bristol Airport](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Bristol-Hotels-Hampton-By-Hilton-Bristol-Airport.h16543862.Hotel-Information) > > [De Vere Wokefield Estate](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Reading-Hotels-De-Vere-Wokefield-Estate.h1044123.Hotel-Information) > > [Dunston Hall Hotel, Spa and Golf Resort](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Norwich-Hotels-Dunston-Hall.h519081.Hotel-Information) > > [Oulton Hall Hotel, Spa & Golf Resort](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Leeds-Hotels-Oulton-Hall-Hotel.h15948.Hotel-Information) > > [Grosvenor Pulford Hotel & Spa](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Chester-Hotels-Grosvenor-Pulford-Hotel-Spa.h790572.Hotel-Information) > > [Best Western Priory Hotel](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Bury-St-Edmunds-Hotels-Best-Western-Priory-Hotel.h24655.Hotel-Information) > > [Four Seasons Hotel Hampshire](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Hook-Hotels-Four-Seasons-Hotel-Hampshire.h986107.Hotel-Information) > > [Hilton Garden Inn Silverstone](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Towcester-Hotels-Hilton-Garden-Inn-Silverstone.h48251404.Hotel-Information) > > [De Vere Cotswold Water Park](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Cirencester-Hotels-De-Vere-Cotswold-Water-Park.h1770053.Hotel-Information) > > [The Bull Inn](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Bury-St-Edmunds-Hotels-The-Bull-Inn.h24433504.Hotel-Information) > > [All Saints Resort](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Bury-St-Edmunds-Hotels-All-Saints-Hotel.h1410480.Hotel-Information) > > [The Park Royal Hotel & Spa](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Warrington-Hotels-The-Park-Royal.h24462.Hotel-Information) > > [The Riverside House Hotel](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Bury-St-Edmunds-Hotels-The-Riverside-House-Hotel.h901004.Hotel-Information) > > [The Windermere Hotel](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Windermere-Hotels-The-Windermere-Hotel.h13431161.Hotel-Information) > > [Harbour Hotel Christchurch](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Christchurch-Hotels-The-Christchurch-Harbour-Hotel-And-Spa.h18097.Hotel-Information) > > [Ufford Park Woodbridge Hotel, Golf & Spa](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Woodbridge-Hotels-Ufford-Park-Woodbridge-Hotel.h12685.Hotel-Information) > > [Cambridge Belfry Hotel & Spa](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Cambridge-Hotels-Cambridge-Belfry.h1103020.Hotel-Information) ---
