The temperature control on the shower in the bathroom off the front bedroom does not work, it is extremely hot and would not adjust and was consequently unusable
Mrs Gilbert January 2020

“Lovely cottage in an excellent position.”

You can walk down the street, no car required . Broadway is an excellent spot whereby you can get to other places very easily. We loved it.

“Only problem radiator not working in front bedroom”
Mrs Plested August 2019

“We really loved the cottage and the excellent location.”

We also enjoyed the garden very much. Unable to control hot water in the showers. It was so hot we couldn't under the shower. Would have preferred to drink out of mugs but unfortunately the only crockery was 4 small cups and 1 mug.

Thank you for your comments. We are sorry you experienced issues with the water temperature. We have tested this since your visit and we have not found any problems. We always try to keep the cottage well-equipped and were not aware that the mugs had been removed. We would like to thank you for bringing this to our attention and have now replaced the missing items. Kind Regards, The Property Owner Owner relations

“A very charming cottage with spacious living area.”

Clean with all the necessary facilities. Very near the centre of Broadway. We would definitely return and recommend to friends.
Mr Martin March 2019

“We love Mays Cottage.”

.. It’s charming, clean, got everything one needs and it feels like home. We’ll be back.
Mr Horsley November 2018

“THe perfect cottage in the perfect location.”

A brilliant Friday to Monday break!
Mr Brogan November 2018

“On arrival the cottage had not been cleaned and after several voicemails the owner contacted us later that night and arranged for us to stay at The Lygon Arms Hotel at his expense for 2 rooms as there were 4 of us.”

We were very grateful as it was 11.00pm by the time it was all sorted and hadn’t eaten and were very stressed as we didn’t know what we were going to do. The following lunchtime we returned to May Cottage and it was immaculate and everything we had hoped for. It was my birthday weekend and unfortunately I lost a night out as it took several hours to sort but I am looking forward to returning next year. The fireplaces were lovely and cosy, and it is a very comfortable cottage within walking distance to the village. My only note would be to add some mirrors in the bedrooms and a bread knife in the kitchen.
Mr Martin October 2018

“Perfect little cottage.”

Very comfortable and everything you need. We didn’t think the photos did it justice. Very comfy beds. Great location. Owner even paid for ‘now’ subscription on tv as we had a rainy day, we are very appreciative of that. Great garden for the dogs! The cottage was very clean and spacious. Lots of light sunny rooms. Will definitely be back!!
Mr Turton September 2018

“This was are first visit to the Cotswolds May cottage at Broadway was the perfect place for roaming around all the local villages ,on arrival delighted to see the very high standard of cleanliness, it rely felt like every thing was brand new and we where the first to stay in the cottage well done housekeeper , also loved the touch of the welcome gifts ,we loved the thorntons , fresh flowers and betty our lab loved her treats !”

,all in all so sorry to leave after only a week [we checked sykes web site to see if we could stay another week , sadly booked up] BUT NOT SURPRISED We also loved the restaurants only a very short walk away and dined out every night , must say without exception all the staff in every shop or eatery in the village so pleasant and friendly a big thank you all.
Dr Htin September 2018

“Positives: Great location.”

Just a few minutes walk to the village centre. Very quiet and peaceful although on a main road. Not overlooked by anyone from the back. Kitchen well equipped, including a compact dishwasher. Nicely decorated throughout. Car parking space and a secure single garage available across the road in the long stay car park. Negatives: The smaller bedroom is quite tight for space. The bigger bedroom gets direct sunlight in the mornings. The curtains are not lined with blackout material so we got woken up very early every morning with the light. The duvets and woollen blankets were quite warm for the weather conditions. Cotton blankets would have been great. The main spoiler for us was the strong wet dog odour downstairs in the two living rooms as well as the bottom of the stairs. A wet dog has most obviously been on the sofas in the main living room, leaving the awful odour on even the cushions. We found the voile curtain in the kitchen had been ripped very badly on one side, the other bears dog bite marks. We had to report these issues to the owner. I had to buy a can of Fabreeze to try and get rid of the awful odour. Even with 2 liberal applications, the unpleasant odour still lingered on. We had not realised this was a pet friendly cottage when we booked. We will avoid booking a pet friendly property in the future for sure.

Thank you very much for your feedback. I am sad to hear your stay did not meet expectations. I aim to provide the highest possible standards at my property and have taken your feedback on-board. I have spoken my cleaner and it has been resolved. In addition, curtains have been replaced. The pictures and property description on the website are mirror of my property. I always provide my contact detail to my guests advising to contact me if they have any issues so that it can be rectified straightaway so that they can enjoy their stay. Owner relations

“Great cottage with eveything you would need for a relaxing week.”

Recently renovated with very nice decor. Great kitchen with all mod cons including dishwasher and excellent washing machine. Iron and ironing board and vacuum cleaner provided, also tablets for washing machine which is a nice touch. Only issue I would bring up is had to work out central heating for ourselves. There should be instructions on settings and controls so central heating can be operated easily as it did get cold in the mornings and evenings. Overall a fantastic cottage and an easy 2 minute walk into town, and also to the Cotswold way for other nice walks especially to the Broadway Tower. We would definitely stay here again.
Mrs Walter August 2018

“The Cottage was exceptionally clean, it was well equipped.”

We didn't encounter any problems. A very small quibble, a pair of oven gloves rather than one glove would have been useful .The towels , whilst very clean were a little worn. But we will definitely stay there again. The location is excellent, walking distance to the shops, easy parking. The garden has seating to eat outside. Very good washing machine. It was a lovely holiday let.
