Excellent Accommodation in a Charming Location

We were very satisfied with our stay and thoroughly enjoyed our time there. The house was spacious, well-equipped, and had everything we needed, while the village was beautiful, peaceful, and quiet. We especially enjoyed the amazing breakfasts at Franks Cafe, and we appreciated the many local information materials, maps, and guidebooks provided, which helped us explore the area.

Followup comments

Location was good, in a nice village. Slippery pathways, Overgrown all outside areas, Clutttered kitchen cupboards and drawers, Smell eminating from kitchen area but was noticed on all the ground floor level, Poor heating controls, No instructions for TV and could not access any BBC or ITV programmes, Shower soakaway in the on-suite bathroom not allowing water to drain away quick enough.

Our 7th stay at the cottage - We had a brilliant time as usual!

Just returned from our long weekend stay at The Shires, had a brilliant time as usual and the weather was really on our side. Went to the Woke service on Sunday, had a good time and the George was open. Thank you for the welcome pack - a nice touch.

Great Walks - lovely to come back to a warm house!

Thanks for all the info about local walks - obviously lots of effort put into that. We found Thor's Cave. Lovely to come back to a warm house with hot showers and a tumble drier! Spent a nice day exploring Butxon and 2 days at Alton Towers! Enjoyed your board games - and thank you for the birthday cake - much appreciated.

Wonderful family location and homely cottage.

We have stayed here twice now, both at Easter times. The cottage is clean, well looked after, and homely with fantastic showers. Outside the home there was slippy algae on the concrete slabs that caused us to slip several times. We had to walk in slow, precise movements to prevent further slipping.This could do with jet washing to prevent this happening.

Spacious Cottage in a quiet village Location

The size of the property. Location of property Bed very comfortable Quiet and picturesque location and near to Amenities Bathrooms were spotless and showers excellent. Sofa could be renewed as it has seen better days. Although plenty of clean plates, mugs etc too many unnecessary cooking items such as glasses (eg Sherry & champagne flutes) but no beer glasses, also many cake tins to bake a cake but no tongs for a morning breakfast that would be more useful.

Gorgeous location

The property was in a stunning location, also roomy and we were very impressed with all the information leaflets that were within the property about the local area, places to visit, etc. The property felt very cold and damp (needed a good airing) when we first arrived, and the heating system was vey difficult to understand. I had phoned you prior to arrival to confirm that there were 2 SINGLE separate beds in one of the rooms, only to find that the bigger room with 2 singles in had been pushed together, but worse still was the fact that there was a VERY THIN DOUBLE DUVET between a 6ft width of two single beds, hence it just wasn’t wide enough nor warm enough. ALSO, a lot of the utensils in the kitchen hadn’t been cleaned and washed properly and there was no can opener.
