Our review is based on us already knowing the area well, we’re visiting friends and family. Ideal location for us, clean very comfortable, nice and roomy, shame we couldn’t use the garden, weather was poor. In a very pretty location. We would recommend it and will hopefully ask to stay there again on our next trip back to the U.K. we live in France, Brexit willing. All in all for us a very good experience. ##### Linda This review comes from a trusted partner site and has not been verified. ### 10/10 Excellent #### Gordon 19 Oct 2020 #### Had a fabulous holiday and rest .

A very comfortable bungalow with a good sized garden. Very helpful owners. There are no facilities in the village itself but it is not far to Hereford and Ledbury. It might be useful to provide some information leaflets about local attractions, walks, restaurants etc in the information pack. The garden is lovely but there is a deep step down to the sloped lawn which may be tricky for people with mobility issues - it might be useful to put this in the information about the cottage and to look at possibly putting in a step from the patio to the lawn to make it easier to get on and off the lawn. Overall, a very relaxing and peaceful few days away.

This is a lovely tiny cottage tucked away behind a Victorian house. Access is easy as it is just off the main road. The cottage was very clean and I would rate cleanliness very highly! Everything was there that we needed to make our stay comfortable....washing machine, dishwasher (with a tablet) and cafetière. The garden was safe and secure and well tended and we enjoyed seeing the last rays of evening sun from the patio. The one downside is that the WIFI was very poor and whilst ok for emails, we were not able to stream or watch movies or Netflix in the evenings which was a shame. Our dog was safe and happy staying with us and we found a nice walk in the village to do morning and night. For the rest of the time we were off exploring the area and the dog came with us. We found amazing walks in the Malverns and local castles to visit.

I have marked down location due to the busy road that the owners house is on . Thalassa is in their back garden and as regards road noise it didn't bother us but walking the dog on an evening with no street lights and only a 3 foot wide footpath was very dangerous -not that is any fault of the owners but is a consideration for the future. Another thing the owners can't do anything about (so therefore no fault of theirs or the property) was the local amenities -basically there weren't any. No village shop and the only pub didn't do meals. So as a suggestion to future guest, lovely place, lovely safe garden for the dog but take provisions for your first night at least as there is nowhere to buy anything on your arrival. One recommendation would be that the owners have a welcome pack for guests. But other than stated it was a lovely place only spoilt by the weather. ##### Lynton ## Expedia's Latest Trends ### Hotels > [The New French Partridge](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Northampton-Hotels-The-New-French-Partridge.h2288818.Hotel-Information) > > [The Derwent Manor Boutique Hotel ](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Consett-Hotels-The-Derwent-Manor-Boutique-Hotel.h9535.Hotel-Information) > > [Bredbury Hall by Accor](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Stockport-Hotels-Bredbury-Hall.h64706.Hotel-Information) > > [Saltmoore](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Whitby-Hotels-Raithwaite-Sandsend.h4276816.Hotel-Information) > > [Delta Hotels by Marriott Colchester](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Colchester-Hotels-Delta-Hotels-By-Marriott-Colchester.h14251.Hotel-Information) > > [Ox Hotel Manchester](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Manchester-Hotels-Milton-Manchester-Hotel.h18787802.Hotel-Information) > > [Cambridge Belfry Hotel & Spa](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Cambridge-Hotels-Cambridge-Belfry.h1103020.Hotel-Information) > > [Wheatsheaf, Baslow by Marston's Inns](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Bakewell-Hotels-Wheatsheaf.h12323109.Hotel-Information) > > [Splash Landings Hotel](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Stoke-On-Trent-Hotels-Splash-Landings-Hotel.h1160988.Hotel-Information) > > [Fisherman's Cot, Tiverton by Marston's Inns](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Tiverton-Hotels-Fishermans-Cot.h11900175.Hotel-Information) > > [Delta Hotels by Marriott Warwick](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Warwick-Hotels-M40-J15-Warwick-Hotel.h10444.Hotel-Information) > > [Cave Hotel & Golf Resort](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Faversham-Hotels-Cave-Hotel-Golf-Resort.h33410673.Hotel-Information) > > [Wychnor Park Country Club](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Burton-On-Trent-Hotels-Wychnor-Park-Country-Club.h1927715.Hotel-Information) > > [Caverswall Castle](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Stoke-On-Trent-Hotels-Caverswall-Castle.h23959535.Hotel-Information) > > [Luxury caravan at Butlins Skegness](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Skegness-Hotels-Luxury-Caravan-At-Butlins-Skegness.h36376338.Hotel-Information) > > [Cheltenham Chase Hotel & Spa](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Cheltenham-Hotels-Delta-By-Marriott-Cheltenham-Chase-Hotel.h9657.Hotel-Information) > > [Best Western Pinewood Manchester Airport-Wilmslow Hotel](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Wilmslow-Hotels-Best-Western-Plus-Pinewood-On-Wilmslow-Hotel-Cheshire.h22074.Hotel-Information) > > [Pine Lake Resort](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Carnforth-Hotels-Pine-Lake-Resort.h1928661.Hotel-Information) > > [Northlands Farm & Lakes](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Chichester-Hotels-Northlands-Farm-Lakes-Premium-Chalet-1.h37797465.Hotel-Information) > > [The Green Man](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Hereford-Hotels-The-Green-Man.h73250893.Hotel-Information) > > [DoubleTree by Hilton Stoke on Trent](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Stoke-On-Trent-Hotels-DoubleTree-By-Hilton-Stoke-On-Trent.h6788.Hotel-Information) > > [De Vere Tortworth Court](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Bristol-Hotels-De-Vere-Tortworth-Court.h570412.Hotel-Information) > > [Cherry Park Hall](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Worksop-Hotels-Cherry-Park-Hall.h15952872.Hotel-Information) > > [Etrop Grange Hotel](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Manchester-Hotels-Etrop-Grange.h49116.Hotel-Information) > > [Lakeside Lodge with 6 berth hot tub and private fishing peg](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Lincoln-Hotels-Delightful-Lakeside-Lodge-With-Hot-Tub-Private-Fishing-Peg-With-Stunning-View.h27123912.Hotel-Information) > > [DoubleTree by Hilton Manchester Airport](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Manchester-Hotels-DoubleTree-By-Hilton-Manchester-Airport.h26104.Hotel-Information) > > [Urban Beach Hotel](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Bournemouth-Hotels-Urban-Beach-Hotel.h2814369.Hotel-Information) > > [Monnington House & Garden Cottage sleeps 18 in 9 bedrooms & 9 baths & dines 24](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Hereford-Hotels-Luxurious-House-9-Beds-9-Baths-Perfect-For-Milestone-Celebrations-Groups.h33601678.Hotel-Information) > > [Makeney Hall Hotel](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Belper-Hotels-Makeney-Hall-Hotel.h1206529.Hotel-Information) ---
