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 wanted somewhere beautiful And relaxing for a celebration weekend, easily reached from north, west and southeast. Abbey Cottage has been perfect. We even had Sun after all that rain!

So quiet, so relaxing, so beautiful! Vanilla Cottage met all of our needs and requirements. We couldn’t have asked for more.

How beautiful the cottage looked as we walked in from the cold, blustery winters night. All ready for Xmas. All the thoughtful touches from the glittering Christmas tree, the candles and even the mince pies and biscuits in the tin.
Thank you so much!
Had a great Christmas despite the stormy weather.

We had a lovely weekend and thoroughly enjoyed a relaxing weekend. We were greeted by Malcolm on arrival who gave us a guided tour of the cottage and explained how everything worked. The wood burner and hot tub added to the ambiance. We enjoyed a lovely walk around Tintern , visit to Monmouth and evening meal at The Moon and Sixpence in Tintern. The Food was ” proper “pub food. Which we enjoyed and were welcomed by a friendly smile.
We hope to return to Foxes Reach again soon, a beautiful cottage in beautiful countryside.
