Reviews from our guests

There are several places where our guests leave us comments.

Not everyone writes in our books – but some people do write by hand in the visitor books in each cottage ( sometimes even signed by the pets! ) Sometimes people forget to write in the book and e mail us later. We faithfully copy these comments as they come in and we upload them here. The only thing we ever hide or alter is the full guest name and address for obvious reasons of privacy.

Secondly we encourage our guests to write about us on the site through which they booked (Trip Advisor, Air B and B, Cottages.com, Freetobook  etc)

As you will see we do have brilliant reviews. They are genuine, not a “fix” and  and its not that nothing ever goes wrong!  Although our standards are very high just occasionally, in the real world,  things are bound to happen. Machines fail, something breaks. The successive good reviews are  because if something does go awry, and if our guests tell us about it  during their stay,  we do move heaven and earth to fix it while those guests are still with us. People greatly appreciate this effort  on our part  and we guarantee  we always make it. If once in a while a review is less than wonderful it is  almost always the case that it was outside our control ( internet down or slow in the whole area for example)  or  sometimes we were  inexplicably only advised about a problem after those guests had departed when there was sadly nothing we could do to make it better.

We loved our stay here, such a beautiful, cosy, modern cottage with loads of character. We had lovely weather for the first few days which allowed us to sit outside. We both went for a run through the lanes and while normally we would use our iPods found it nice for a change to listen to the quiet and nature around us.
The cottage had everything we needed, thank you so much. Perfect week.

Lovely cottage, warm and cosy with everything we needed (and more). A warm welcome and special treats was much appreciated, enjoyed sitting in the garden listening to the birds,, saw Red kites and Robins, so peaceful and relaxing, we have visited quite a few places, went to Tintern Vineyards but it was a bit early for a tour, still we saw the new lambs which was interesting and bought Plum and Berry wine (delicious)’ Fish and chips at Seven Seas fish bar in Ross on Wye are best ever. Really enjoyed the week here.

Aldo and Elaine Romero -

A super relaxing week and a great place to celebrate a special wedding anniversary along with our dog. A perfect place for him as he is getting on in years and unable to tackle stiles so the many woodland walks were just right. Between us we have tackled the first part of the Wye Valley Way and also some of many geocaches in the area.
A lovely comfortable cottage – thanks for the treats and Ty thanks you for the Bonio too!

We were married in St Michael’s church 10 years ago on 24/4/04- such a pleasure to be back in Tintern to celebrate once again. This cottage is a beautiful place to stay in with terrific views of The Abbey (where our wedding photographs were taken!) Can’t wait to come back again

We have had a wonderful time here. The cottage and location are fabulous and it was a fantastic place to catch up with old and dear friends. We hope to be back to make more happy memories. Thank you.

This was our first stay at this beautiful cottage but hopefully not our last. We felt totally settled and at home remarkably quickly. The cottage is a real home from home, attention to detail and effort to provide every comfort is amazing and so appreciated. The surrounding area is utterly stunning, breathtakingly sights at every turn, just such a privilege to be here. Thank you so much for having us.
