Our hosts were welcoming and helpful. The cottage was a delight, tiny but perfectly formed! Equipped for two, but, with a bit of jiggery pokery we were able to cater for family who visited for lunch. No hesitation in recommending it.

This is a beautifully updated, clean, well-maintained and well-equipped cottage. The owners next door are hospitable and helpful, and genuinely dog-friendly - as is their dog! The cottage has good off-road parking and is well-situated for visiting the surrounding area. We thoroughly recommend this as a base for exploring this part of England.

Only minor nit-picks which were soon dealt with by the friendly but non-intrusive owners. We both had nasty chest colds but still managed some lovely walks. We recommend Fyfield Down and Grey Wethers to the north (walk from the door) and Milk Hill/Knap Hill above the Vale of Pewsey (10 minute drive, turn left outside the cottage)
