The Hideaway

Perfect for a couple.

Immaculately clean. Super comfy bed. Quiet location, tucked away behind the owners' property. The owners were welcoming and friendly on arrival and departure, on hand if needed (though we didn't need to bother them as everything worked) but not intrusive. Two pubs serving food and a small shop in the village. Great base for days out. Lack of onsite parking was not an issue, as there is on road parking very close nearby.

We are very happy to give a positive review - this is a great little place to stay.

The cottage is well equipped, quiet and immaculately presented. The hosts are most welcoming. We found Eckington to be a very pleasant village, well located for several day-trips out to the neighbouring towns and the countryside. If you only need room for two, this is perfect!

Superb little cottage (aptly named the Hideaway), comprising everything needed for a home away from home.

Guy and Nittaya (the owners) are attentive, on hand, but never intrusive. Extremely highly recommended.

We had a lovely week at The Hideaway, the property was clean, comfortable and well equipped.

We were welcomed by the hosts and shown round when we arrived, which was really helpful. We would recommend staying at the Hideaway, 2 good pubs a walk away and a good base for exploring the Cotswolds.

We had a great week staying at "The Hideaway" A very comfortable cottage with a lovely garden and outlook, as well as a patio area to the side where we enjoyed sitting for breakfast each morning.

Could not fault it at all, had everything you needed and more, set within the owners garden but cleverly arranged to feel private, and in a lovely village that has 2 pubs and a shop - it was ideal Plenty of places to drive to and a good base for visiting the Cotswolds.. The owners were very helpful and gave us lots of local information, we would certainly recommend and hope to visit again.

I had a wonderful week with brilliant weather.

Eckington is an excellent place to stay: both village pubs serve food and there is a well-provisioned shop on the main road. I went out and about to a number of local places, but always looked forward to returning to the comfort of The Hideaway at the end of the day. I was sorry to see that the current owners are keen to sell, but do hope that it will be possible to return.

A visit to The Hideaway has become an annual treat for us.

It's a lovely retreat from the world, with all amenities; spotlessly clean and thoughtfully and comfortably furnished by the lovely and welcoming owners, who live in the main house and who are always available if needed, but who never intrude. With its local store and pubs, there really is no need to venture out of the village if you're in the mood for a relaxed, quiet break from the world, but is ideally located for visits to all major attractions and towns should you feel the need to explore. Extremely highly recommended.

A nice quiet location.

The property had everything that was needed for a short stay and it was exceptionally clean. Guy was an excellent host, available but not intrusive.

This is a lovely property.

It is located in a very quiet spot but within a few minutes walk of the village shop and two pubs. The furnishings and facilities are excellent and I found it a practical and comfortable place for a relaxing stay. The owners (the Hideaway is tucked away behind their home) were very friendly and welcoming but never intrusive. Right now, they are intending to sell and relocate but I hope that new owners keep this property going to the same high standard.

Lovely warm welcome from the proprietor into a very charming bungalow.

The owners were always nearby but never intrusive. Everything you would need is there. Offshore is a lovely place to visit as is Tewkesbury. Would definitely recommend to family and friends.

Lovely cottage everything you need Lovely owners and very helpful, would recommend

The Hideaway is a fabulous, quiet retreat in the heart of a welcoming little village in the splendid environs of the Cotswolds.

This was our third visit, and our experience was just as good as when we first visited a few years ago. Guy and Nittaya are welcoming hosts, happy to chat, but never intrusive. Naturally, they're available to help if needed, but all amenities and faciliites are provided, so there was no need to ask for help with anything. The Hideaway has its own fenced-off area of the garden, but Guy and Nittaya kindly invited us to look around their larger garden, and to sample the plums from their tree (perfect!). Nittaya also delivered some home-made sweet cakes (apologies, Nittaya, I can't recall their name!) on our final evening -- and absolutely superb they were, too! The Hideaway is a real gem of a find, with Guy and Nittaya the perfect hosts.

Extremely happy with our week's stay at this cottage.

It's a lovely building that is warm, dry, and very comfortable. Everything works, the location is lovely, and the owners are excellent hosts - welcoming and friendly, while also unobtrusive. We will book again.

As always a brilliant time.

Guy and his wife are really friendly and helpful. The Hideaway is comfortable and quiet. Trains are not really heard! The village has a useful shop and two fine pubs.

We enjoyed our second visit and would book again.

Everything is as described and its just a really nice cottage to visit.

A beautiful well kept cottage with helpful and friendly hosts.

Lovely area with plenty to do and see.

Lovely quiet place.

Great hosts. Will come back again.

A little gem in a pretty village location.

Two pubs both serving delicious food, we particularly loved the vibe in the Anchor with the local's. The Hideaway made a perfect base to explore the surrounding areas of this beautiful part of the country. Thanks to Guy for meeting us with the key, we were made to feel very welcome and we genuinely enjoyed our stay.

Stayed here for a month after the sale of house and we were made to feel very welcome and comfortable.

The hosts Guy and Nittaya were very friendly and hospitable. We would definitely go back and highly recommend it.

The Hideaway was everything that we could have wished for.

The location was ideal for touring the area but it was great to return to the cottage and enjoy the secluded location and garden. We do hope to return at some point in the future.

Our second visit to the Hideaway -- and just a good as the first.

A lovely, homely and immaculately clean cottage with Guy and Nittaya the perfect hosts -- friendly, helpful and on-hand, without being in the least obtrusive. We will definitely return!

Our second stay.

We will be back. A lovely place to stay with village amenities within very easy reach.

Aptly named, the Hideaway is secluded and whilst it is on the owners property it has its own gate and entrance making it very private.

Inside it is extremely well equipped with absolutely everything that you could need. The owners are very friendly and helpful if needed. The cottage is clean and well presented the perfect base to explore this beautiful area of Worcestershire.

The Hideaway is just as it's Described .

This was a very comfortable, convenient and spotless cottage.

Right in the heart of the beautiful Cotswolds. Not far from anywhere ,there are plenty of little villages in easy reach to explore. The host couldn't do enough , and it's the only cottage of many I have stayed in , where I have been encouraged to leave the linen in situ !!

The Hideaway was a little gem, what a great find.

Our hosts Guy & Tinnaya we’re lovely people and very helpful, nothing was too much bother. Would highly recommend a stay there, if it’s just to relax or for walkers it’s, it’s perfect for either.

We had a very pleasant stay in this cottage, compact but perfectly formed.

Every thing we needed was provided, and the cottage was very clean and fresh. The bed was very comfortable, the bathroom small but had everything needed. Our hosts were friendly but unobtrusive, we were made to feel welcome. This is a lovely area for a break as there are so many places nearby. On street carparking was no hassle and we discovered the red phone box book exchange close by, my husband must have read 3 novels in down time. Thank you, we hope to return soon

Lovely cosy cottage, very clean and very well equipped.

excellent location for exploring this beautiful part of the country. The only very small minus was the size of the bathroom,it is teensy.

The cottage had everything needed for a relaxing stay.

The outside space and garden area were larger than expected. 2 pubs within 10 minutes walk. Book exchange for anyone wanting to read. Excellent.

Lovely welcome, very quiet private location.

Clean and comfortable.

A lovely and private cottage.

Everything was provided. Central position in village with two good pubs and a shop. Owners were really friendly and helpful. We will be back.

Lovely Cottage and very friendly, helpful hosts.

The property is great with everything you need.

The owner Guy was so nice and helpful. Lovely village, great walks and really nice people. The Anchor and The Bell are within walking distance as is the shop. Had a really nice break

This was just the right place for us to stay for this trip.

Guy was a great host and was very helpful, especially informing us that there were roadworks outside the property and the best way to get into the drive on arrival. Would definitely recommend this place to others.

The Hideaway - just as the name says, a lovely little cottage in a lovely village.

Wonderfully welcoming owners; it is my second visit and hopefully not my last

We thoroughly enjoyed our stay at The Hideaway.

It was spotlessly clean, cosy, comfortable and nicely placed for local walks. The garden was a lovely place to relax and enjoy after a day out. Eckington was within easy reach of all the places we wanted to visit and we're happy we chose The Hideaway and Eckington for our holiday.

Thank you for a lovely stay, we really enjoyed our time here.

The place was very homely, the bed was very comfy and the kitchen was very well equipped. you were brilliant hosts, can't wait to stay here again.

We received a very warm welcome from Guy and Nittaya.

The property was spotlessly clean and very well equipped for self catering. It is in a quite location, the owner has made the property its own private garden which is very sunny all day. There is plenty of information on the area with many footpaths and local walks. Would recommend the property.

Fabulous retreat in the quiet and friendly village of Eckington.

Hosts (Guy and Nattaya) are very welcoming and on hand if needed (but don't intrude at all). Lovely garden, with a newly-created, little fenced area for guests to use (though Guy and Nattaya were kind enough to show us round the main garden and encourage us to use that, too). The cottage was immaculate, and has everything needed for a relaxing, fully-equipped holiday. The listing warned that wi-fi can be patchy; but, with very few occasional and brief blips, we experienced no problems. Trains pass by the end of the garden, but are only noticeable because, otherwise, the only sounds are bird songs! Parking is on local roads -- but we easily found a spot (with Guy's helpful suggestion) just 20 yards or so away, which we had no problem using when we returned each evening from our excursions. This is a fabulous location for days out in the Cotswolds, or simply for hiding away from the world for a chilled, pleasant holiday. Needless to say, we shall be returning. Very highly recommended.

Our hosts were very nice and very helpful and we had a great time.

Disappointed to see that you are charging £2750 for seven nights in a chalet in Mundesley where we live. It's kind of tainted our view of Sykes.

Very good location for exploring the region and in an ultra friendly village

The holiday cottage and owners were brilliant.

As we had to change our booking due to the pandemic we found your staff rude, unhelpful and we will not be using your services again.

The Hideaway is a lovely property in a lovely location ,The owners could not do enough for you to make your stay special ,would recommend this property to anyone .

We would certainly return .

lovely little “hideaway”, handy location, guy, Nattaya and Ben so friendly, well equipped, with even access to vegetables from the green house, would recommend this place, Niel and Christine, Rotherham

Great people at this cottage,they helped in every way possible,nothing was a problem.

Great place for walks and the river Avon was on the doorstep.Highly recommend.

the owners have made a garden area for use of the cottage which has enhanced the surroundings further.

a very comfortable clean and cosy home for a relaxing break. lots of interesting market towns to visit and lovely river walks nearby. a very picturesque village with two good pubs and an excellent well stocked village shop. very welcoming owners on site available if needed but not intrusive. with the opening of further restrictions will give even more to enjoy, though our enjoyment was not lessened. definitely a recommended accommodation and one we would have no hesitation in returning to.

It was nice that the owners had lots of little exras .

..milk t bags ...washing liqud ect little things we hadnt thought of ....lovely relaxing break

From the moment we booked this lovely "Hideaway" till the moment we left we were well looked after.

We travelled up from Bournemouth & the directions were very clear. We had a wonderful welcome from the new owners, Guy, Nittaya & Ben. As soon as we stepped into this cosy cottage; we felt at home. No faults at all. Completely spotless. Thank you so much; we shall be booking again. Janet & Mike.

The hosts and the cottage were excellent.

A perfect place to unwind, lovely walks in the village and an ideal location to visit the Cotswolds and surrounding area. Would definitely be recommending to our friends and family

A nicely located comfortable and well equipped cottage ideal for a quiet and relaxing holiday.

The owners were very pleasant and helpful and we were very impressed with their warm welcome.

Made welcome from the start.

Lots of little unexpected items ... tea, coffee, sugar, milk, bathroom and kitchen supplies. Well located for touring the area. Great value. Very satisfied.

Perfect cottage in a lovely village.

Easy to locate and received a friendly reception on arrival. Lots of places to visit if one felt the need to move around or simply the perfect place for complete relaxation. Excellent Village Shop - no need to look for supermarkets.

Lovely clean and cosy cottage in a great area, lots of things to see and do.

Very friendly helpful hosts.Two good pubs and a shop in easy walking distance of the cottage and we had good weather.

Extremely good holiday, the Hideaway providing a comfortable and attractive base for exploring the surrounding countryside.

The owners are very welcoming and friendly.

Excellent accommodation in all respects

Great location for visiting the surrounding area, weather was absolutely lovely, beginning of July 2019.

The Hideaway was exceptionally clean and well equipped with everything needed for a comfortable stay. Our hosts were very welcoming and left us to our own devices, but were available if needed. There are two public houses at Eckington, both serving excellent food, (dined out 3 times!) just a 5 minute walk away. A village shop for papers and everything else, again a very short walk away. There is a train line running at the back of the property, but did not interfere with the delight of the property. I would not hesitate to visit the Hideaway again as we had a lovely holiday!

A quiet cottage in the owners garden, excellent caring hosts.

In a beautiful part of the country.

The only drawback to this property is the lack of parking at the property.

Although you clearly state parking is on the road, there are double yellow lines on both sides of the road outside the main house, however we did manage to find somewhere to park all week. The property is lovely, very comfortably furnished including new divan beds in the bedroom and the kitchen is extremely well equipped. The hosts are very welcoming and helpful. If you want a quiet and peaceful holiday this is the ideal place to be.

Nice clean and comfortable cottage in a very nice area Handy for seeing nice parts of the Cotswolds Owners very welcoming

Great cottage.

However , if going in summer months might be good to make it more clear about private garden space Luckily didn't need it. I would feel intrusive on owners patch and wouldn't use.

It was the perfect get away to relax and recharge.

The owners were so helpful and friendly and nothing was too much trouble . Highly recommend this property. The village pub was amazing too. Very happy with our choice of cottage and location.

The new owners were very welcoming and keen to be of help.

The cottage is an absolute delight in a beautiful village.
