Reviewer Type: Extended Group
Travel Purpose: leisure
Positive: Loved the location, the peace & quiet. Not far from some great pubs- the Trout at Tadploe Bridge & The Plough at Haney. Also the Thames Path & the Chimney Meadows nature reserve
Negative: The kitchen was a little small for the group of 7 & the hob & oven didn’t seem to heat up very well so it took a long time to cook our pasta dish.
Summary: A comfortable stay in a beautiful location!

Reviewer Type: Extended Group
Travel Purpose: leisure
Positive: The house was very clean and warm. The hosts had left some delicious homemade biscuits and apple juice as well as eggs and white bread. There were plenty of cooking appliances. There were 5 bedrooms which suited us as we are friends who live in different parts of the country. The gardens were lovely but we only discovered them at the end. Gilletts Cottage s in the grounds of a Quaker retreat centre so had a gentle vibe.
Negative: It would have been nice to have a second shower instead of a bath (or a shower attachment to the bath). The sitting room was not very cosy. We didn't like the local pub which is recommended in the booklet. The publican was quite intrusive and the food was mediocre.
Summary: A lovely comfortable place to spend time with old friends
