    A Peaceful Remote Retreat

    There was nothing to dislike. If I had to nitpick, I would suggest investing in a more comfortable sofa to make movie-watching more relaxing.

    The host was absolutely amazing. I couldn’t fault the excellent communication and the cooked breakfast delivered to us every morning. The Summerhouse was peaceful, remote, and brilliantly tucked away. We had all the facilities we needed, including food and drinks in the fridge upon arrival. There were jars filled with delicious cookies, cereal, and honey. The property was very clean and well-stocked with plenty of towels, robes, slippers, toothpaste, and other toiletries—a brilliant touch. The booklet with lots of information for guests was a great idea and very useful. The hosts thought of everything and accommodated any additional needs, like milk. Fantastic hosts!

    Everything was incredible. The hosts were great at communication and the breakfasts was exceptional. Everything was spotless when we arrived and they even left us some Prosecco, fresh egg, fresh milk, fresh juice and more for when we arrived! It was just an overall great experience and we will 100% be going back. There isn’t a single thing at fault. And lastly in the bathroom was draw with anything you could need. It had women supplies, toothpaste, extra toilet roll. The property as a whole was very well done.

    It’s very dark walking from the parking space to the Summerhouse. The dining table is a little low as we’re the dining chairs but that’s my only criticism.

    The host Cheryl was excellent! Very friendly kept me informed at every step. She had obviously thought about what guests would need and left lovely locally sourced provisions. The fixtures and fittings were of the highest quality. The hot tub was lovely and the garden provided an extra room . All in all,the Summerhouse is excellent !

    Autumn break at The Summerhouse

    Our time at The Summerhouse was wonderful from start to finish. We arrived in the evening but were able to find the place easily as it was so well lit and set in a very private area. The house had everything we needed. The hottub was ready for us, and there were very yummy complimentary treats. The whole place was super clean and warm. The garden area is enclosed with views over the hills and field of animals. We ordered the breakfast from our hosts. It was delivered to us at a time of our choosing and was absolutely delicious and made using local produce and eggs from the cottage next door. The hosts were even gracious enough to show us some of their animals and feed them. Who knew sheep liked digestive biscuits. The local area is stunning. We went on a couple of walks and found the reservoir and Astbury Falls. The local pub is a short walk away and is a very traditional cou try pub with great food and even had live music on the Saturday night. We really enjoyed our stay and will definitely be back. Thank you, Cheryl and Simon

    Great rural location, summerhouse was very private completely fenced off from the house garden. The hot tub was set up and the lodge had everything we needed ready for our arrival. The hosts were nice and provided lots of complementary goodies, including fresh eggs laid that morning. They were very accommodating and arranged with us to feed all their animals (the best bit). Summerhouse is very close to the Mercian way, Route 45, great for cycling and walking.

    Cliche as it sounds this was perfect for what we needed . Secluded , private and countryside. What's not to like

    Everything was as you'd expect . Hot tub set for arrival and the owners had left some treats and local produce for our arrival. The breakfast was exceptional , ordered night before and hand delivered . We even made a new friend on the paths to the village, believe was one of the owners cats . Would highly recommend .Also the owners are just a text message away . Including for purchasing their farm products

    Stayed in this accommodation at beginning of February with my partner for birthday celebrations and was perfect and will not hesitate to come back and recommend to everyone! The Summerhouse had everything needed – pots and pans, cutlery, hairdryer, cleaning equipment and towels etc etc – I couldn’t list it all. Then the extra mile the hosts went to provide everything and extra touches for our little break was exceptional – robes, slippers, milk, cereal, fresh eggs and lovely cookies. We only needed to shop for alcohol and snacks, which we tied in to a trip to local town which was also lovely. The welcome folder with all info on the Summerhouse and local places to eat/shop/visit was sooo useful and it literally meant we didn’t need to guess or google anything. We both had some reservations about using the hot tub when there was frost covering the ground but it was already up to temperature when we arrived and this was maintained during our stay, honestly until we reluctantly got out for bedtime – we wouldn’t have even known it was winter and freezing outside. The location and scenery was lovely and would love to return in the better weather to explore the local area more. There is option for a cooked breakfast each morning and we both chose the full breakfast – this was excellent quality and value for money and delivered to the door at time of our choosing. It tasted great and filled us up for the whole day. The set up with the Summerhouse and with check in and out was perfect and meant we had complete privacy during our entire stay, although aware we could contact the hosts at any time for anything. I can’t thank the hosts enough for a great break and cant wait to return.
