Hyde View Cottage

bucksbeauty United Kingdom
Review Submitted: July 8, 2009 Date of Stay: June 2009
We were delighted with the property which was clean, comfortable and stylish. We all felt immediately at home and relaxed.
The owners had obviously spent time and effort in assuring that all needs were catered for including our little 2 year old granddaughter who loved investigating the toys and puzzles. She also loved the bed by the little window.
We investigated the garden which provided a BBQ and adequate seating for adults and children. Unfortunately, we could not avail ourselves of its facilities as the weather was inclement, however, there was lots to do in the area. We appreciated the booklets and the recommendations for eating places - all of which were good to excellent.

Lovely cosy cottage

R C Kent
Review Submitted: October 16, 2008 Date of Stay: September 2008
We had a lovely stay at this cottage. The owners were very accommodating (it was a last minute break away, we only gave them 3 days notice). It is in a lovely area close to some great attractions and had everything you could need. We were even surprised to find some toys for younger children so my 2 year old son was happy. It is a typical old cottage so low ceilings and my husband said he was getting a stiff neck by the end of the stay from ducking all the time, but I thought it added to the charm!
It has been beautifully and tastefully refurbished and all in all we had a great time.
