Everything was exactly as advertised, and we felt as though we had found a little slice of paradise. Each morning, we woke up early to the calming sight of horses grazing in the nearby fields and cows lazily roaming about—what a wonderful way to start the day! The convenience of being able to walk directly from the property into the scenic surroundings was a huge plus and allowed us to really immerse ourselves in nature.The owners, the Metson family, were incredibly kind and welcoming. They greeted us with a lovely welcome basket filled with fresh milk and an assortment of delicious baked goods that truly made us feel at home. Their thoughtfulness and hospitality added a personal touch to our experience that we greatly appreciated.Without a doubt, we will return to this charming getaway in the future, and we highly recommend it to anyone looking for a relaxing and picturesque retreat. ![](https://a.travel-assets.com/ugc/hotel-reviews/c8337f2d-ca27-40df-96d4-c4bbed47d340-1753765302819.jpg?impolicy=resizecrop&rw=204&ra=fit&q=high) ![](https://a.travel-assets.com/ugc/hotel-reviews/2b125add-8d3d-4a39-a432-bb7cd67de78e-1753765302733.jpg?impolicy=resizecrop&rw=204&ra=fit&q=high) ![](https://a.travel-assets.com/ugc/hotel-reviews/6aed9973-5a37-480f-beb1-1e8e62e4f327-1753765303003.jpg?impolicy=resizecrop&rw=204&ra=fit&q=high) ##### steffanie g.

Lovely cottage with simple, clean decor offering space and light but by far the best bit is the gorgeous country views framed by woodland. The welcome is always warm and Tim and family balance beautifully attentiveness with privacy and the feeling that this is our home. We find it hard to believe that others also stayi in ‘our’ holiday home as we are made to feel so special as i’m sure every guest is. ##### Katie W.

The views from the cottage are stunning, which makes it even harder to leave to enjoy the stunning surrounding countryside. There are several walks directly from the cottage and many country pubs in the area. To top it off, the Mentons were fabulous hosts. We certainly want to come back! ##### Mark M.

It’s an active place with cows and sheep and horses roaming the fields in front of the cottage. The house was spotless and stocked with pizzas, bread, butter, and eggs “from the farm“. We felt very well looked after. The house is bright and airy, and we marveled at the place while driving in an out through the working farm. The beds were comfortable and the grounds backed up to trails for walking. I give Tim an A+ rating for creating such a lovely, restive retreat ##### Mike Q.

Tim was around/available if we needed him but also gave us our own space. We felt almost part of the little community and really felt that we had moved in. Loved the proximity to Peaslake - lovely stroll through the woods or short drive down the lane. Beauriful sun trap with great outdoor seating. The cottage was spotlessly clean and had amazing views. Mattresses could have been a little thicker but everything else was perfect for us. We will be back! ##### Katie W.

They were more than happy to chat and tell us about the farm if you wanted to know more about it. The property looked out over the working farm fields with cattle, horses and sheep. We spent the evenings sitting outside the cottage watching the animals graze in the sunshine. Our toddler enjoyed going to see the horses in the stables especially, Jack and playing in the cottage gardens. The cottage has everything you need, including coffee machine, dishwasher etc. And the owners kindly left things like coffee pods and dishwasher tablets which really help. Tim and his family left us meat from their farm which is an awesome welcome gesture! The cottage was spotlessly clean and modern with everything you need to cook meals for the family to entertaining. Local walking routes are accessible straight from the cottage too. Very relaxed, enjoyable and private stay. Would definitely return ##### Joe S.

Brilliant week away at a lovely house in a beautiful part of the country. Kids loved living on a farm and seeing the lambs, cows, deer and horses and view of the countryside from the house was stunning. Perfect location for walks in the Surrey Hills and managed to sample numerous great pub beer gardens in the first week of opening. Would highly recommend staying here for a walking, biking or just a quiet family holiday. Thanks to Tim and all his family on the farm for a great holiday! ##### Ian K.

It is surrounded by beautiful countryside and you can walk on pathways straight from the house. We all felt immediately relaxed and our only regret was that we could not stay longer. One of our party had to get an early morning taxi in order to get a flight from Gatwick and Tim said she should phone him if the taxi did not arrive - and this would have been at 5 am! Perfect house, perfect host. ##### Rachael F. Stayed 4 nights in Sep 2018 ### 8/10 Good #### Emily D. 12 Aug 2018 #### Great location. Friendly host. If you’re looking for a relaxing farm stay Holly Cottage is ideal. Located on a working cattle farm. Our grandchildren enjoyed watching the horses and talking with their careers. Fantastic views and good access to local walking trails. ##### Emily D. Stayed 7 nights in Aug 2018 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Anette S., Singapore 8 Jul 2018 #### A rural paradise within an hour of Waterloo Station! Holly Cottage is exactly what it says on the tin - it's an 'away from it all' cottage, and part of a working farm with breathtaking panoramic views. Tim and his tireless family are super hosts, and nothing is too much trouble. The welcome flowers and preloaded fridge are a superb touch that we just loved. The cottage is spacious and very homely, and you'll be able to share your morning coffee with free range cows and horses who exist very gently right next to the cottage. It's one of those places that you can just move into, unpack your suitcases, and exist in. We loved the fact that, despite the seclusion, Guildford is a 20 minute drive away, and getting to Waterloo Station in London only takes about an hour. The surrounding villages and areas are quaint and fun to visit, especially in the summer, and there are almost endless little roads and lanes to explore. You will not regret a few days at Holly Cottage. ##### Anette S.

It was a perfect retreat, in spectacular countryside, to recover from a long flight from Australia. We were greeted by beautiful roses and a generous food hamper which was lovely. The cottage was so well resourced we couldn't think of anything else we would have needed. The Metson's were fantastic hosts and even jump started our car on our last day and saved us from missing our train to Paris (thanks again!!) - thanks for a wonderful stay - we hope to return one day!!!

For those who enjoy the countryside and what the countryside has to offer it was there on the doorstep! Beautiful woodland walks, birdsong and the view from the property were all complementary to making our stay so enjoyable. The Metson family and their farming enterprise in particular their Hereford Cattle, provided us with much pleasure. We would thoroughly recommend a stay at Holly Cottage! ##### JUDITH A.

Peace and quiet in absolute comfort with a priceless view This is perfect if you like to be slightly remote, surrounded by beautiful countryside and on a working farm. This lovingly renovated cottage has all the mod cons you need, lovely nice little thoughtful touches, the added bonus of two bathrooms, one upstairs and one on the ground floor, open plan living areas, yet with enough room to be alone or together. The cottage is kept spotlessly clean with luxury linen, towels and toiletries. We were greeted by gorgeous flowers, a surprise gift of some of their own farm meat in the freezer and immediate supplies in the fridge and everywhere you need them. Tim and his family really look after this cottage as they work hard on the farm and take care to make sure you are also looked after. Take your time as you drive through the farm - no point in rushing as animals and associated farm machinery quite rightly come first. We are very pleased to have found this rental cottage and will come back in a heartbeat. It IS worth every penny and has been perfect for us. We have already recommended it to friends and will continue to do so. ##### Angie L.

We arrived to a very well stocked kitchen including delicious coverwood artisan meats from animals that are visibly very well cared for. The cottage is delightful modern and clean whilst still retaining plenty of charm. The practicalities of the house have been carefully considered so it was very easy for us as a family to settle in. The house has two bedrooms but the layout works that the second lounge works perfectly as a third bedroom with its own showeroom. The horses and cows on the farm were a joy to see as you drove through the farm to get to the house. The views were wonderful and enjoyed some beautiful Autumn walks. We were lucky enough to stay during an open day at coverwood and loved the magical gardens and lakes. Peaslake has good pub and village shop. And cranleigh is a lovely town with some lovely shops. Highly reccomended for an escape to the country. Quite hard to leave... ##### Jo L.

We were greeted with many quality eats, treats and drinks which we enjoyed during our stay. The views are beautiful and the farm activities were of interest too. As no light pollution on a clear night you can see the full glory of the stars. High spec modern accommodation in a peaceful relaxed setting and a good base to explore the beauty of Surrey. We wish to return.

Coverwood Farm is a bucolic retreat, perfect for anyone wanting either to get away and rest, or see the outstanding beauty of the Surrey Hills. What made this an instant hit for my two kids (11 and 13) and I was arriving after a long flight to find a fridge full of organic farm goods: eggs, butter, cheese, beef, ice cream. There were cookies and coffee. The internet behaved fast and flawlessly the entire week. The TV had no problems, the washer and dryer were great. The place is clean, airy, bright. It has fantastic views, horses, sheep, cows the kids will be delighted to see. Out the back you can walk up to Holmbury Hill, or further to Leith Hill. The location is ideal for biking, for running, for ambling in the countryside. Guildford was 20 minute drive away, Gomshall with its wonderful pub - the Mill - 8 minutes. To top it off...Tim, the owner, is an affable rural entrepreneur who understands that extroverts want to chat, introverts want to be left alone. A landlord who...gets it. Of all the cottages in England I've stayed at...and there have been a few...this is the only one I'd go back to. It is awesome. ##### travelswithadiplomat ## Expedia's Latest Trends ### Hotels > [Crafted at Powdermills](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Battle-Hotels-Powdermills-Country-House-Hotel.h195688.Hotel-Information) > > [Pinewood Camping Pods - At Port Lympne Reserve](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Hythe-Hotels-Pinewood-Apinall-Foundation.h40101599.Hotel-Information) > > [Sandman Signature Sheffield Quays Hotel](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Sheffield-Hotels-The-Quays-Hotel-Sheffield.h46197620.Hotel-Information) > > [White Hart, Exeter by Marston's Inns](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Exeter-Hotels-White-Hart.h11899395.Hotel-Information) > > [The Stables Whitby](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Whitby-Hotels-The-Stables-Whitby.h23322490.Hotel-Information) > > [Samsara Retreat and Yoga - Adults Only](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Maidstone-Hotels-Samsara-Retreat-And-Yoga.h41349775.Hotel-Information) > > [Cromer Country Club](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Cromer-Hotels-Cromer-Country-Club.h1927781.Hotel-Information) > > [The Skipton Hotel - Formerly Hotel Rendezvous](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Skipton-Hotels-Hotel-Rendezvous.h41466.Hotel-Information) > > [Bear Lodge - At Port Lympne Reserve](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Hythe-Hotels-Bear-Lodge-Aspinall-Foundation.h40101484.Hotel-Information) > > [Exeter Rougemont hotel by Sunday](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Exeter-Hotels-Exeter-Rougemont-Hotel-By-Sunday.h7784.Hotel-Information) > > [Kings Highway, Derby by Marston's Inns](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Derby-Hotels-Kings-Highway.h31887923.Hotel-Information) > > [Skegness The Royal Hotel](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Skegness-Hotels-The-Royal-Hotel-Skegness.h23931999.Hotel-Information) > > [Soar Mill Cove Hotel](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Salcombe-Hotels-Soar-Mill-Cove-Hotel.h2042032.Hotel-Information) > > [Seven Hotel](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Southend-On-Sea-Hotels-Seven-Hotel.h19282555.Hotel-Information) > > [Chewton Glen Hotel & Spa - an Iconic Luxury Hotel](https://www.expedia.co.uk/New-Milton-Hotels-Chewton-Glen-Hotel-Spa.h528432.Hotel-Information) > > [OYO Shanklin Beach Hotel](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Shanklin-Hotels-OYO-Shanklin-Beach-Hotel.h7539838.Hotel-Information) > > [DoubleTree by Hilton London Elstree](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Borehamwood-Hotels-DoubleTree-By-Hilton-London-Elstree.h18549.Hotel-Information) > > [Mermaid, Ipswich by Marston's Inns](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Ipswich-Hotels-Mermaid.h31883430.Hotel-Information) > > [Crow Wood Hotel & Spa Resort](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Burnley-Hotels-Crowwood-Hotel-Spa-Resort.h38222710.Hotel-Information) > > [The Swan Hotel](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Wells-Hotels-The-Swan-Hotel.h26791.Hotel-Information) > > [The Aviator, formerly Smugglers Cove, Clacton On Sea by Marston's Inns](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Clacton-On-Sea-Hotels-Smugglers-Cove-By-Marstons-Inns.h35853904.Hotel-Information) > > [Yeoldon House](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Bideford-Hotels-Yeoldon-House.h2764122.Hotel-Information) > > [Brock Cottage private Hot Tub DOG/Cat FRIENDLY\* with on site fishing](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Pickering-Hotels-Spacious-Stone-Cottage-DOG-FRIENDLY.h36805890.Hotel-Information) > > [Hampton by Hilton Canterbury](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Canterbury-Hotels-Hampton-Inn-Canterbury.h66541221.Hotel-Information) > > [Wild Rose Caravan Park](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Appleby-In-Westmorland-Hotels-Wild-Rose-Caravan-Park.h24459296.Hotel-Information) > > [Lock Keeper, Worksop by Marston's Inns](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Worksop-Hotels-Lock-Keeper.h27479298.Hotel-Information) > > [voco Leicester by IHG](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Leicester-Hotels-Voco-Leicester.h76596043.Hotel-Information) > > [Canterbury Bell, Margate by Marston's Inns](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Broadstairs-Hotels-Canterbury-Bell.h33103125.Hotel-Information) > > [Wild Thyme & Honey](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Cirencester-Hotels-Wild-Thyme-Honey.h9241983.Hotel-Information) ---
