There are two places where our guests leave us comments.
They are written 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 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 Trip Advisor and we have an automatic feed of what has been written from Trip Advisor to this site . Reviews posted like that show on the home page for each cottage, so now you can see what others have said.
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. The 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 appreciate this effort on our part greatly and we guarantee it.

"Fabulous stay with Granny and Grandpa en route to Devon. Felicity greatly enjoyed visiting local castles that I had visited as a child, Raglan, Coch, Whitecastle. We enjoyed morning walks through the woods on both sides of the river. The cottage suited our needs perfectly and was a super home away from home.

"We enjoyed our stay at your beautiful cottage! A lot of nice things to do in the area. We went to Tintern Abbey, Raglan Castle, The Big Pit, Puzzlewood and Llangorse lake. We caught 41 fish. Some were very big. We made some nice walks. We loved the view from the kitchen, looking at the horse Tonto and the field full of rabbits. Our daughter of 11 years loved that very much. On the last day of our stay we had a great time at Chepstow racecourse. Watching and betting on tbe horses. Spectacular! Malcolm and Fiona, thank you very much for everything! The flowers, cookies, vodka etc. And your help and information. Edwin, Maud, Fons and Steffie Arnhem Holland "
