Fabulous stay!

Stayed in this cottage for a monrh over the Christmas period. A cosy, clean, warm house in a beautiful location. Great hosts, good communication and nice touches (mince pies, wine and chocolates left for us). Would definitely recommend and stay again!

Very good property in great location.

Although our stay didn't get off to the best start as the cottage had not been cleaned since the previous renters. Henry Adams were quick to respond and send housekeepers to carry out the cleaning, change beds etc. It was a lovely location for the coast as well as country walks with our two dogs, the garden was fully enclosed and was a good size. Would definitely consider visiting again.

Relaxing Stay with Everything Provided

We had a wonderful stay at this cottage. The location was perfect for us, making it easy to catch up with family and friends along the south coast. The cottage itself was very well equipped, especially the kitchen, which had everything we needed to prepare meals without any hassle. It was a lovely touch to find milk in the fridge and biscuits waiting for us on arrival, as well as useful essentials like washing up liquid, dishwasher tablets, hand soap, and body wash. Having a hairdryer provided also made things much more convenient. The setting was beautiful, with stunning sunsets from the back garden and deer visible from the front, which made our stay feel extra special. Overall, this was a comfortable, welcoming, and well-thought-out place to stay, and we would happily return.

Good

The house is clean and pleasant. There is very little wrong with it and the location is nice. We enjoyed our stay and plan to come back and would certainly recommend the rental. Things that could be even better - a bit picky but here they are... The beds are a bit soft and new mattresses would be good. The TV was pretty difficult to use and may need reconfiguring - or it might be me! The parking is OK but not particularly user friendly and the barn is a bit dilapidated. The walk to the woods is pretty scary as the lane is used by motorists that seem perpetually wanting to speed and seem genuinely surprised that anyone would walk along the lane. I realise there is not much the owners can do... unless it was possible to create private access via the field margin behind the properties.

Insects

Lovely cottage, few cobwebs and spiders and there was anest of lady birds in the kitchen window above the fridge which were crawling about in the kitchen too. We noticed that the bathroom wash basin wasn’t fixed to the wall and felt unsafe.

Great for a quiet break

Location was excellent - rural but close to town. The cottage was comfortable, well equipped and perfectly cleaned. Plenty of hot water, heating was good ( once you got to grips with the controls ) and kitchen had all the essentials for cooking a decent meal. Our only problem was the main double bedroom - the large bed was a bit too long for the room, making moving around a bit tricky. As a couple, we ended up using the twin room which was more spacious. Beds were very comfortable and if you have a youngster in tow, the travel cot was roomy ( bring your own bedding) and there was a high chair provided. Again, a slight criticism would be that as an old cottage it had some steep stairs so maybe a stair gate would be a good addition. Overall, a really nice cottage in a lovely spot.
