Book this place now! Wonderful Stay!!
My family of 4 adults stayed here. It did not disappoint! Tim & Victoria are perfect hosts and the communication is great. They provide a lot of useful info to plan and stay at their home.. even have an app & book. Although they tried very hard to explain where to park to drop off our things, we failed...but it's ok. Once you found the home, it was easy after that. They left many goodies to enjoy. Thank you! Their kitchen is well-stocked and has a Nespresso machine with a milk frother. I loved the frother so much I just bought one for our home. They provided many coffee capsules to start you off. I haven't used a Nespresso machine before but after googling it I was on my way! The electrical outlets have on/off switches so if the appliance isn't working check to make sure the switch is on. The wifi was great. There are only clipper outlets in the bathroom so I used the outlet in the bunkbed room in front of the mirror for drying & curling my hair. We used the dishwasher, washer/dryer with no problems (Soap goes in the double bar section of washer). We ate at the Ballihoo restaurant our first night..yummy. They have a small store there to pick up food supplies. Had a massage & facial at the spa..so relaxing. Enjoyed the Half Day Rally Experience @ Cotswold Driving Experiences..so fun! 10-course dinner with Dine Indulge at their home..worth it! We rented an electric car, charging station only a few min away and FREE. It is so beautiful there..highly recommmend!

Lovely cottage
Spent a week here with my family and the cottage had everything you could possibly need, was spotlessly clean and had great facilities onsite. Tim and Vanessa couldn’t have been more helpful from the minute we booked until checkout. Would highly recommend

Lovely cottage in a family-friendly estate
Lower Mill estate is great for families - lots of activities and space to run around! The cottage is well equipped - sadly not as great a view as some of the other properties at Lower Mill, but in a charming corner nevertheless. The owners are very proactive with communication and very responsive to requests.
