It was damp November so we did not use the tennis court or outside dining area but we did appreciate the wood burning stove and the unlimited supply of wood. We enjoyed feeding the three alpacas and the two pygmy goats. Our hosts were welcoming, helpful and informative. We found this a really good base for seeing two wonderful plays in Stratford Upon Avon. It was nice to return to a quiet, peaceful and cosy place after a busy day out. ##### Isobel M.

Very clean, comfortable, cosy and quiet and well equipped. The location was ideal being a short drive from Stratford and a little further from other Cotswold towns/villages. The alpacas and goats certainly add an interest that we all enjoyed and the hot tub was a great hit with everyone; we used it morning and evening. It was lovely to sit in the hot tub and chat about the day over a glass of wine or a beer. Kay and Brian were the perfect hosts, they were on hand if we needed anything but allowed us to embrace all the area and accommodation offered. We will certainly look to return. ##### Carole A.

Finally couldn't finish the review without mentioning the dog Buttercup, she was so sweet and turn up at 7.00pm every night when food was being cooked. I would definitely return. ##### Christina P. Stayed 3 nights in Jan 2024 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Alison G. 4 Feb 2024 Liked: Cleanliness, check-in, communication, location, listing accuracy #### Perfect Place and Location! First of all, Kay was absolutely lovely and was so flexible with some of our travel mess ups and delays. Thank you Kay! Second - have been to Cotswolds several times, I would say this is one of the best locations as far as being out but in - it was literally minutes down the road from Stratford and then driving to other towns was very convenient. We didn’t really end up with much time at the property but the little we were there I would definitely come back! It was so quaint and Cotswoldish! Beds were comfy and full bathrooms for all bedrooms, plus some! Would highly recommend! ##### Alison G.
