Yarn Cottage

Very comfortable and homely.

There is lots of space, ideal for families. There are two lounges, one is like a tv room which is great for film nights, leaving the other lounge for quieter times. Light and bright dining room. The kitchen is very well equipped. Very nice surprise to find a few drinks in the fridge and supplies in the kitchen. The owner was very helpful over the phone when we struggled with finding the key when we first arrived. Having parking at the rear of the house for two cars is ideal. The courtyard garden, although small, is secure if you have dogs. However be aware that as the house is on the main road out of Broadway there is traffic noise, especially during the day when it's busy. Not so bad when the day tourist have gone, didn't notice it at night. But this is more than made up by the fact that the location is only a few minutes walk to the centre of Broadway, not far from the children's park if you have little ones. We were there in the heatwave and the downstairs of the house was very cool, but fans were provided if needed. Doggy treats, dishes, were provided too. However, the house in parts is quite dark, even in the day, partly due to the decor and design. I felt we were having the lights on in some parts of the house most of the day. Oddly, the bed in the ensuite room, was very high to climb into. The mattress was very firm, which we like. The other beds were made of twin beds; mattresses were too soft for my personal liking. Suggestions for improvements (only a few for the owner as the house is great): Better light bulbs in the bedside tables - couldn't read by the low wattage bulbs Plastic beakers for children - crockery is very nice but glasses heavy for little ones. Ensuite shower has a very weak flow - not great, it works but could be better Coasters for drinks We went with nephews and nieces (and a 5 year old), all of whom loved the house for it's location, size and facilities so I'd definitely recommend it.

A lovely, quaint cottage that was very clean, well laid out and great attention to detail.

The welcome pack was excellent and also this cottage was in a great location. We loved staying here.

Our family, who stayed there, is very grateful.

Wonderful place! We hope to return someday. Highly recommended for all future guests...

We stayed at Yarn Cottage for a week over Christmas and thought the cottage was perfect!

Five of us stayed and all had plenty of our own space. The bedrooms were lovely and we each having our own bathroom facilities. The house was warm, cosy and spacious. It was well stocked with a good range of utensils in the kitchen. Our hosts left welcome items in the fridge, which were gratefully recieved. What we loved especially was how it was decorated for Christmas. Almost every room was decorated in some way. It was tastefully done and made our Christmas celebrations really special. There were even two Christmas trees. We were able to park three cars at the property too, which was so helpful. We didn't have any contact with our hosts, but that was only because we had no need. Everything was so easy! With this is mind, we wanted to say a HUGE thank you to them. We honestly couldn't have wished for anything more. We did not want to leave. Thank you so much for sharing your beautiful cottage with us. Would highly recommend. ☺️

Having stayed at this property for a number of years and after being unhappy with the general cleanliness last year, we hesitated about booking this year, but are glad that we did.

The property was back to its usual standard and we would book again for next year, but someone has beaten us to it!! One small point, would have appreciated a nest of tables in the tv room for snacks/drinks etc. Thank you for another lovely stay.

It was our second time at the cottage.

It felt like coming home. It was made more special that it was made up for Christmas. It was magical and made more special when the Christmas lights were switched on and we could see the lights out of the window. It’s the perfect location and once parked we hardly used the car. Thanks for having us Yarn Cottage & Kate the lovely owner.

We had a fabulous stay at Yarn Cottage.

It had everything you could need and is in a great location. The fact that there is parking is a huge plus. It was warm and comfortable and the welcome pack was a lovely touch. We would happily go and stay again.

What a fab place, much bigger than expected.

Lots of lovely touches awaits your stay. We hope to go back again next year.

A lovely property.

. beautifully decorated and the 3 bedrooms were large and suitable for 3 couples. Everything was great except the ensuite shower in the main bedroom which was low powered and stopped if anyone else was showering at the same time, but I believe the owner is working on this.. Otherwise we had a lovely holiday and would definitely recommend this property.

We loved our stay at Yarn Cottage and would like to return.

The decor and lighting was tasteful and in keeping with the property. For my personal preference I would prefer it to be lighter and a little brighter as this made the rooms dark.

Yarn Cottage is a nice character cottage in an excellent location in the beautiful village of Broadway.

We had a fantastic holiday with our family. The cottage was very comfortable and more spacious than we thought. The conservatory dining room is a great space. The fully enclosed garden was brilliant for our dogs. Thanks Kate for providing a great holiday cottage,

Fantastic cottage, great location, everything was excellent however the sheets in two of the bedroom were polyester.

100% cotton sheets and duvet cover would be much nicer.

Fantastic family sized cottage with lovely features.

Really good sized bedrooms each with their own individual features. Lots of space for families to move around. Lovely treats left in the fridge to start the holiday off!

We have stayed at this house for a number of years with this owner and the previous one and have always enjoyed our stay and rebooked almost immediately and recommended it to friends.

This year was no exception except for one addition, DUST AND DIRT, the dining room floor was exceptionally dirty. We have never known the house so dirty, although thankfully sinks and toilets seem to be clean. I have photos if you would like to see them. At the moment we are still considering our booking for next year, but would llove to think the house will be cleaned before then.

Such a home from home and it was ideal to have parking.

There was a couple of issues on arrival but these were quickly resolved by Sykes and Kate. A lovely touch to have wine and beer chilling on arrival and biscuits and water in the rooms. Underfloor heating was ideal especially on the day it snowed. Our dog loved falling asleep on the floor after returning from her walk. As a family of five and a toddler it was ideal to have the snug and tv room. Cosy cottage in a perfect location for exploring Broadway and beyond. Hope to return next year. Thanks for having us Kate Pam Ray & family xx

We loved every minute at Yarn Cottage.

I stayed there with my 14 year old daughter and niece. Practically perfect in every way. We acknowledge we were residing in the countryside but the property could improve with a deep clean. Every corner of the property had cobwebs. The four poster bed on arrival had cobwebs from every post. Each room had several layers of dust. We found several remnants of previous visitors in the property. That said the cottage is gorgeous, perfectly located and we hope to return.

Yarn cottage is a lovelly place to stay,it’s the best equipped cottage we’ve holidayed in,we wanted for nothing.

Kate the owner left,tonic,beer,wine,bottled water and biscuits all much appreciated.All the beds were very comfortable and bedding good quality,bedrooms all a good size.It was a lovelly cosy place to stay.The position of the cottage is ideal with Broadway just around the corner but unfortunately this comes with a downside as it’s positioned on a busy road,but this didn’t spoil our holiday.there is a good pub just around the corner,the horse and hounds very friendly and good food.All in all we had a wonderful holiday and would book again.I hope Kate got the message about side table legs needing tightening.

Had a wonderful two nights stay, such a beautiful house in a perfect location to explore Broadway.

My only feedback would be the house was very cold on arrival and took a while to heat up, not sure if it had been empty for a while? Logs supplied for the fire for the first night would have been nice, kindling was left but no logs. Everything else was perfect

The cottage location was the main draw for us and didn’t disappoint!

The cottage itself is spacious, comfortable and laid out well for a family - enough room for people to have their space or be together. The mattress in the four poster room is one of the most comfortable beds I’ve ever slept on! You can tell the owner is making her way through to re-decorate room by room as some were lovely and others still need a bit of a touch up - in the four poster room there was a yellow stain on the carpet for example that I can only assume was a previous dog tenant! The owner was on hand and helpful and the kitchen well equipped. The only slight issue for us was the cleanliness. The hob needed a clean before we were happy to use it, there were dead bugs on the windowsill in the bedroom, a sticky patch on the floor in the front room where something must have been spilled previously and not wiped up. Aside from this, it’s a lovely cottage with great potential in a beautiful location.

We all loved our stay at Yarn Cottage, despite the wet and windy weather.

The welcome pack as by far the best we have every had in any cottage stay, and the owner Kate is delightful. Just a note to say that the car parking area is a little misleading as we tried without success to access the next doors property as it is not immediately recognised, it is not the gate which is next to the property. That said the location is perfect, welcoming and homely.

We booked and paid for a 4 bed property to find out 3 weeks before holiday that it was now a 3 bed property.

'garden' is the car park for 1 car. 'free parking' in area was none existent. other than conservatory, rooms very dark and full of gimmicky tat. kitchen - crockery and cutlery excellent. equipment poor. unmarked step up from conservatory to kitchen H&S hazard! Beds comfortable. no instructions for recycling, leaving property etc. photographs were accurate, but appearance of rooms misleading

We had a very pleasant stay at Yarn Cottage.

Facilities were as described and the location was great. Our group of 6 adults and a dog were very comfortable and enjoyed our stay. The lack of TV aerial was an issue as the internet signal varied somewhat and was lost too often in the main lounge. There was no information on how and what to recycle, just the one general waste wheelie bin. Other properties had 3 wheelie bins.

Yarn cottage is a fabulous place to stay and in an amazing location.

There is so much space and character and the owner is really helpful and accommodating. There were a couple of niggles due to the change of ownership with some of the amenities but the new owner Kate dealt with everything brilliantly. So lovely to find a cottage that is both beautiful and dog friendly and an owner so supportive of dog friendly accommodation.

We originally chose this cottage as a 4 bedroom, we are 4 ladies of a certain age who holiday together every year.

The new owner has changed it to 3 bedroom which really is right, all 3 bedrooms are a good size and very comfortable. It did mean 2 of us had to share, we were informed of the change too last minute to make alternative arrangements. The cottage is certainly now stylish, kitchen could do with a rethink. Sink and drainer are awkward, we couldn't reach some of the crockery and there were only 2 serving dishes. TVs are challenging if you are not really familiar with smart tvs, scant instructions. We ended up not bothering. Pointless having an enormous tv if you cant watch it. The downstairs bedroom would be better off with a shower room than a slipper bath, the bedroom is certainly large enough to accommodate. The room is cold too. More detail on the parking area would have been appreciated as when we arrived we were trying to open the wrong gate! It is also very tight to get into. Having said all this, we loved the cottage and would go back again! So central for Broadway and the area. Owner was very responsive when we had queries. It was a lovely week.

Lovely House; great location.

It was a bit dark in places but the conservatory area where the big table is, is lovely and we did probably use that area the most all week. Negatives - The downstairs bedroom was quite cold - even in the warm sunshine this week - but there is no heating in there and so I wouldn't like to use that room in the winter. Also, I did send a separate email about the door handle in downstairs toilet which fell off immediately that room was used and so that needs properly fixing. Overall a very nice place and I would consider staying there again.

We had a wonderful stay at Yarn Cottage, celebrating our 25th Wedding Anniversary.

The property was beautiful and had everything we needed for our holiday. Only a 2 minute walk into Broadway town was a bonus too. We would highly recommend this property and hope to be returning sometime in the future.
