“My wife and I stayed here, its lovely and clean through out, the owners have done an excellent job in refurbishment, I am a blue badge holder so walking from the allocated parking space was short and easy, God will we will return her again.”

“This was our second visit and the cottage is just perfect for our needs.”

Our intention is to return next year. Some updated garden furniture would enable us to fully enjoy the garden which is a perfect, secure space for the dogs.

- Wendy, June 2024

Thanks for your feedback and all garden furniture has been replaced with new furniture ready for your next visit. Property Owner

Paul September 2023

“Property was not so lovely as listed on the foto's.”

(Especially the living room) Kitchen was not clean and there was an nasty smell.( Maybe the hood?) Beds were good but small. We slept separately and that was okay. Location is really wonderfull nearby the city center!

- Paul, September 2023

Thank you for your feedback and apologies that you felt the cottage didn't live up to expectations. It has come to light since your stay that the waste pipe from the dishwasher was leaking and so this would explain the smell in the kitchen, this has now been repaired. We would like to point out that the beds are 1 x king size and 1 x double as is stated in the listing, and the photos are recently done and so are an accurate reflection of the cottage. As you will see from countless other reviews, cleaning standards are very high, however, we will of course look into your comments re the kitchen. Property Owner
Michael July 2023

“The cottage was perfect, excellent location being only a 5 minute walk into the centre of Broadway and in a great location for road access to many large towns.”

The cottage is beautiful kept and is a charming place to be for a relaxing holiday. The garden was ideal as we took our small dog perfect and secure, we also loved the roof terrace which is perfect for lovely evening relaxing. We will visit again and would highly recommend Mike O'sullivan

Wendy June 2023

“We were very nervous taking 2 dogs on holiday but the cottage and garden were wonderful, the garden being a dogs adventure playground especially in the heat.”

The proximity of off lead walking very welcome. It was a lovely cottage to relax and unwind. A blind in the kitchen would make a welcome addition. We would love to return next year as a fun time was had by all.

- Wendy, June 2023
Cheryl May 2023

“We really enjoyed our holiday in this cottage which was very clean and comfortable with everything you need for a homely vacation.”

The location was excellent as were all the nearby restaurants, cafes and lovely independent shops. Beautiful walks can be accessed from the doorstep too. We had gorgeous weather, so spent lots of time in the pretty garden listening to the birds sing.

Iolanda April 2023

“Lovely cosy cottage in central location with private parking nearby.”

Garden great for dogs. Safe and enclosed. Added bonus of lovely roof terrace. Comfy beds. Warm and cosy. Would come again. THANKYOU x

Lisa April 2023

“What an amazing place to stay!”

The cottage is in a quiet location yet only a couple of minutes walk to Broadway high street with fantastic shops and dog friendly pubs. April cottage is lovingly furnished by the owners and had everything we needed for our stay. The downstairs rooms are larger than they look in the photos and the garden is beautiful. The bedrooms are well thought out and my son and his wife loved the roof terrace. My husband and I had the smaller room with ensuite and found it perfectly adequate in size and the bed was very comfortable. Having a garage and parking space close by was a real bonus and being able to load/unload outside the house was very handy. All in all a fantastic holiday cottage and I can't wait to go back!

Julie December 2022

“Lovely cottage, well equipped, beautiful garden, would love to visit in the spring or summer.”

Great location and parking a bonus.

- Julie, December 2022
Pam September 2022

“Very comfortable cottage, convenient location, garden seemed a bit neglected, parking just across the road, not far to walk to the car park.”

We had no issues parking the car there. The only thing against it was it was a bit lacking in the towel, toilet roll and welcome pack front, extra towels were provided when asked. I personally would expect 3 towels per guest, A packet of biscuits and a pint Milk is worst welcome pack we have ever had. Other than that we had a nice stay.

- Pam, September 2022

I am sorry about this but our welcome pack is normally far more substantive than the one you received and i will certainly follow up on this. Thank you for letting me know and apologies once again. Property Owner
Alison July 2022

“Lovely cottage in a fantastic location.”

Everything we could want in the cottage and enclosed garden for the dog was ideal. Broadway itself is lovely, good shops and pubs/restaurants within walking distance. Also good walking for the dog. If there in July would recommend a visit to the Cotswolds Lavender fields, really relaxing.

- Alison, July 2022
Ray May 2022

“Overall very good, decent situation in a lovely village.”

Parking issue was well highlit in the details, so no surprise, but knocks the overall "would you recommend" score - for dog owners its not too convenient. Otherwise, two fixable minor problems; 1. Found a washing line and pegs, but couldn't see where to fix the line in the garden. Worth explaining, or removing line. 2. Gate into next door wouldn't bolt properly.

- Ray, May 2022
Sharon April 2022

“Ideal location lovely cottage very pleased”

- Sharon, April 2022
Sue January 2022

“A lovely cosy stay at April Cottage.”

Very comfortable, warm and welcoming. Kitchen facilities good. Larger bath sheets would be a nice 4* touch. As someone previously has said - the garage is V small (I have a mini and it was tight!) however it’s nice and handy just over the road. Quiet area so we all slept well, comfy beds and good quality linen. Great shops and walks from the cottage. A beautiful place to explore. We would definitely return.

- Sue, January 2022

Thanks for your feedback, lovely to hear you enjoyed the property. We do appreciate the garage is a little tight for certain cars but of course there is the free parking space as well that can be used. Thanks again! Property Owner
John January 2022

“Some maintenance items need to be dealt with.”

Garage parking is not suitable for large cars. Some kitchen implements were missing.

- John, January 2022

“Lovely cottage in beautiful location.”

We would definitely stay again

Apologies regarding the coffee machine. A new one has now been installed. Property Owner

“Property was exactly as described, key collection and procedures very simple, great place to stay”

- Richard, November 2021
Rachael November 2021

“The cottage was lovely and perfectly situated to explore Broadway and the surrounding villages.”

It was spacious and clean, and has a lovely long garden great for the dog. Beds were comfy and we made good use of the lovely fire. The listing states the property has Sky TV but that wasn’t the case and the main oven also didn’t work - we were able to use the small side oven so not a massive issue. Overall we had a lovely 5 nights at April Cottage and would definitely recommend.

- Rachael, November 2021
Peter October 2021

“Very comfortable cottage, only a 5 minute stroll from the centre of Broadway and its shops and restaurants.”

The kitchen is well equipped and easy to use. Plenty of good walks straight from the front door - especially Broadway Tower (pick a clear day). And the steam railway can be used for walks further afield.

- Peter, October 2021
Robert August 2021

“The second en-suite bedroom is very small with limited clothes space so might not suit some people.”

As we were aware of that this is not a complaint.

“Very relaxing break and the cottage was well equipped and comfortable.”

Ideal for the dog as well with the enclosed garden.Ideally located just outside of the high street and car parking was a bonus

- Gordon, February 2020
Kath October 2019

“Lovely place to stay however the few steps from the bedroom to the bathroom ...”

Lovely place to stay however the few steps from the bedroom to the bathroom could be difficult for anyone with mobility issues

- Kath, October 2019

“Beautiful cottage in a picturesque setting, will definitely return.”

David May 2019

“A great holiday cottage in a lovely central location in Broadway, fabulous sunny garden and beautifully clean.”

A great place to relax and chill out. Thoroughly enjoyed our weeks stay here would certainly recommend it, great walking locally in all directions we didn't need to use the car daily. Useful free car parking and garage available opposite the cottage in the small car park, and with a very short stroll to many local pubs, hotels and eateries in Broadway. A beautiful place to stay in.

- David, May 2019
Colin April 2019

“Excellent cottage , good to see a dog friendly cottage that is also to a high standard.”

Great location, would definitely consider returning in the future.

- Colin, April 2019
Jeanne April 2019

“We are both disabled and.”

Parking was a walk away from cottage which was a big problem for two 87 year.old ladies. The main bedroom and en suite were miniscule. Thin curtains and Sun streamed through at crack of dawn.

- Jeanne, April 2019
Linda April 2019

“We had a couple of problems, rang the owner and it was dealt with.”

Unfortunately as it was a repair couldn't be done immediately but for us did not detract from our enjoyment. A better presented visitors book. Flowers and packet cake left, milk could be more helpful for some, we had taken provisions so not a problem. Garden needs tidying and no bread to be left out as brings many large noisy birds.

- Linda, April 2019
Colin March 2019

“April cottage was lovely and situated so near to the main road and shops and places to eat.”

We were concerned about parking as this was described as 'being opposite the cottage under the archway' when in fact it was down the road opposite, under the archway and left turn into public carpark where there was an allocated space and garage. You cannot see the car park from the cottage. My husband is disabled and has a scooter which dismantles to fit in car so this added to problems but we managed to fit it in front room at cottage to avoid him walking to and from car park. in spite of this we would certainly go to April cottage again.

- Colin, March 2019

Thank you for your feedback, I am pleased you had an enjoyable stay. Regarding the car parking, I'm sorry you did not find it as convenient as you had hoped, it is as described in the listing 'directly opposite the cottage under the archway' which is a walk of around 150m from the door of the cottage to the allocated garage and parking space which are in the public car park opposite. I am pleased the car park cannot be seen from the cottage as this would detract from the setting of the row of cottages which April Cottage forms part. You can also load and unload on the road outside the cottage whenever you wish to so the scooter could have been unloaded and loaded into the car as required. Again, apologies if you found the parking difficult but thank you for your comments. We look forward to seeing you again hopefully. Property Owner

“Lovely cottage in a great location.”

Comfortable throughout and well equipped. The perfect base for exploring the Cotswolds.

- Ian, November 2018
Julie September 2018

“April Cottage is a delightful property.”

There are many thoughtful touches which add to the feeling of it being a home rather than a rental property. It is situated close to the high street in Broadway and there is so much to do and see in this beautiful area.

Sarah June 2018

“I had a lovely stay at April Cottage with my dog , Henry .”

It is a great place to stay , very homely & everything I needed to make it a very enjoyable holiday & a nice big garden for my dog . It is conveniently situated , being just a few minutes walk from Broadway high street , which has an abundance of places to eat & lovely shops to look in . There were also plenty of good walks right on the doorstep. I would highly recommend April Cottage & the owner was very helpful , even going to the trouble of buying a garden parasol & fan for indoors as I went in the middle of a heatwave !

- Sarah, June 2018
Paul June 2018

“Good location, liked the fully enclosed garden for the dogs, comfortable beds”

- Paul, June 2018
Tony June 2018

“The holiday cottage was lovely and a great position and location for the high street and shops etc we did enjoy our stay at the cottage very much, and enjoy its location and garden However the parking for the cottage was not problem for us during our stay, but it was not a secure location when parked in a public car park in front of the garages.”

This also meant being parked for unloading and loading the car on the double yellow lines, and it being main road leading into Broadway. we had a good week and enjoyed the cottage and weather

- Tony, June 2018
Susan May 2018

“April Cottage was the ideal place for our holiday.”

Great location, very comfortable cottage with all mod cons. Lovely garden to sit out in during our good weather and very efficient heating when it turned chilly. Easy walking into Broadway for shopping or eating. Although the car parking wasn't ideal, the designated spot in the nearby public car park worked satisfactorily, and we were able to load/unload luggage at the start and end of our stay in front of the cottage which made it a bit easier.

- Susan, May 2018
David March 2018

“Very comfortable cottage, log fire was especially appreciated in the snowy weather.”

Located close to Broadway facilities. Also good walks from the front door.

- David, March 2018
