    “The perfect winter break for my birthday and the first time to the midlands but won’t be the last.”

    Lovely cozy little cottage with the advantage of a hot tub, which was perfect for the chilly winter evenings in an enclosed garden, which was a little over looked but didn’t bother us. Comfy lounge with electric fire which was not needed as the cottage was always lovely and warm. Fully equipped kitchen, although could have done with more than 4 teaspoons, especially when using the dishwasher. Dishwasher tablets, cloth at the sink, teatowel, washing up liquid and kitchen roll all provided ...

    Lovely cozy little cottage with the advantage of a hot tub, which was perfect for the chilly winter evenings in an enclosed garden, which was a little over looked but didn’t bother us. Comfy lounge with electric fire which was not needed as the cottage was always lovely and warm. Fully equipped kitchen, although could have done with more than 4 teaspoons, especially when using the dishwasher. Dishwasher tablets, cloth at the sink, teatowel, washing up liquid and kitchen roll all provided along with tea, coffee and sugar and some biscuits which was a nice touch. Liquid hand soap was also at all sinks. Upstairs was very spacious with towels for all guests on each bed. Hairdryer in main bedroom, plenty of hangers and storage. Mattresses on the beds were memory foam and a little firm for our taste, in fact very hard and we do sleep on a firm mattress. But did sleep quite well considering. Very clean and tidy property. So many lovely places to eat out within a 20 minute drive. Would definitely recommend The Little Beehive and if it was an option would score a 4 1/2 out of 5

This lovely dwelling benefits from off-road parking situated in a courtyard, making unloading your belongings and settling in an easy task; stepping through the oval doorway, remove any coats and shoes in the hallway before heading through to the snug sitting room to enjoy a moment of peace in front of the TV, flicking on the log effect electric fire to keep you toasty in the cooler evenings.

At the end of an action-packed day, savour an indulgent soak under the canopy of the stars with a seat in the hot tub whilst your canine companion stretches their legs in the enclosed garden.

When the day draws to a close, make your way upstairs to two well-presented bedrooms, the first of which is a spacious king-size bedroom, offering ample storage space and dressing table, whilst the second spacious bedroom comprises twin beds, ideal for children, families or friends sharing.

An elegant family bathroom awaits every morning, appointed with a roll-top slipper bath along with a walk-in shower, so you can choose how best to start your day before joining your guests outside for a steaming cup of coffee.
