Kitts Cottage

Kitts Cottage is small and quaint.

Smaller than it appears in the pictures. However, it is very sweet and well catered for, in terms of functionality. Space is reasonably tight due to the size of the cottage and storage for clothes is limited, with two people staying. The outside space is great for alfresco dining. Like the cottage, the garden is petite. The parking on the property works well if you have a small car and one which is not low to the ground. Or has a skirt under the bumper. As due to the slope at the entrance of the drive, low cars will scrape the concrete. The driveway is a tight fit, but doable. The only real downside for this property, is the broadband and internet connection. It is pants. The router continually and frustratingly stopped connecting to broadband or the internet on a daily/hourly basis. A real bugbear if one wants or needs the internet for social media, emails, work or entertainment. Which nowadays for many is a must, wherever we travel. All in all, the cottage is located in a great location near the hills and a short distance from the town of Malvern. Walking up the hill from the cottage, just off the main road, there is a path. This leads to the hills and is only a twenty minute hike. The hills and surrounding countryside is stunning. Therefore, the cottage was a great base to stay and explore what the beauty of Malvern had to offer.

I had to cancel so didn’t go I contacted you but obviously it’s not on your records.

I asked as it was exceptional circumstances as my mum with dementia was going to respite but they cancel three days before so we could go I asked for a refund but also contacted you asking if we could change dates as it was a lot of money to lose. As it wasn’t our fault and had no reply I would appreciate your comments we were very disappointed as it looked like a lovely property and we had paid the extra cancellation policy

Lovely comfortable cottage.

Ideal for couple's. Central location for Cotswolds and Malvern Hills. Lots of great scenery.Would like to have had curtains in bedroom,as far too blight early morning. Ok if you like to get up at dawn. All in all,a great stay.

Cottage had everything we wanted and there were clear instructions and information on what we needed to know.

Has a lovely week and would be happy to recommend to others.

Kitt's Cottage is clean, warm & comfortable.

Quality bed linen. Well equipped kitchen. Great shower. Useful Stable door onto small, enclosed, south facing front garden. Local Nature Reserve 10 minutes walk away. Host is friendly, helpful & responds quickly to messages. Tea & coffee provided. Thoroughly recommend.

We loved Kitts cottage so much, we've rebooked it for later in the year

So comfortable and the sweetest cottage.

Quiet and peaceful. I will defiantly book again. The communication was fantastic. It was like a little nook of home away from home

Lovely little cottage, in a lovely area, very comfortable and everything provided.

If you have a large car parking could be a problem. Lovely walks from the door, very relaxing. Would recommend.!

Kitts cottage has everything you would need for a short break.

Very close to great walks on the neighbouring hills and a short walk to the local nature reserve. The cottage was warm and lit when I arrived after dark, which was a nice welcome and much appreciated. This was my fourth visit and I look forward to returning later in the year.

Sweetest little cottage in a peaceful location.

It was lovely to be greeted with music and lights, and the Christmas gift basket was very unexpected. We have a few tiny complaints: it was clean, but dusty old cobwebs adorned most of the lights; the sofa was not comfortable, and the shape made it difficult for two people to sit and eat on; some of the electrical sockets were loose, which made plugging things in and, more alarmingly, unplugging them a little scary. Having said that we had a wonderful time, and wouldn’t hesitate to recommend Kitts Cottage.

Although prepared for a small property, we found Kitts cottage is indeed very small.

Not for the more ample among us. And the towels provided need to be bigger. I'm of average size and the biggest towel barely went around me. As stated in previous reviews, a spare cupboard to store food is needed. There are indeed shelves, however, they are full with cake tins, cups, books etc. We ended up storing our dry goods on the breakfast bar and eating from trays on our laps. The coffee machine didn't work. The Internet was sporadic at best which didn't overly bother us but would be difficult for some people. The 'secure' garden needs checking as to the left of the cottage is a flimsy piece of wire mesh held in place by bits of wood. Given this is direct into the neighbours garden who have rabbits in an open pen it is a disaster waiting to happen with any determined dog.

Lovely cottage very small, sofa was a little uncomfortable when 2 people sat on it at the same time, especially when eating.

Not much storage space. But overall everything was there that we needed.

Very nice

Beautiful cottage but a few things could be better.

Like having an empty cupboard for our food a smaller bed so more room in bedroom and a shelf in bathroom to put towels.

Beautiful cottage, comfortable.

warm and fully equipped. Great location for walking from the house and near to a nature reserve. We had a fantastic break thank you

The cottage itself was in a nice situation and roomy for the two of us.

In a good place for the showground and the hills which was why we chose it. We liked the bed it was comfortable and the kitchen was well equipped although some storage space for food we brought for the week would have been nice. The main areas we liked less was the damp - we had to keep the windows open all the time to try to reduce it, coats hang in the porch were wet after rain (you need to hang them on the other hooks provided) and items we put in the bedroom became damp and medication tablets we took we ended up having to throw away as they also got damp. We recognise that the building is an older property however we were surprised at the lack of ventilation without opening windows (trickle vents would help). One of us is smaller so a step to get into the bath for the shower would have been helpful - we saw it was a roll top in the photos but didn’t realise how tall it was. So overall it was ok but not without some issues.

We had a lovely stay at Kitts cottage.

Very cosy, easy to find and handy for the local amenities. We decided to park in a nearby road as access for our car was tight! But not a problem! Lots of local information was provided if required. Highly recommended!

We booked this last minute and it was perfect!

Great location and the host let us check in early as it was all ready for us. Beautiful interior with a fantastically well equipped kitchen! Perfect for an Autumn getaway! Great dog walking routes in every direction and the perfect location to explore The Malverns with amazing views at the top. We will definitely book again!

Well appointed and comfortable cottage which is perfectly located for hill walking in the Malvern Hills

We had a fantastic late Christmas / New Year holiday in Kitts Cottage - still with its Christmas decorations up, which were delightful.

It is an absolutely charming cottage, in a quiet village location - the only sounds were the birds. Picture perfect from the outside and inside, it was cosy, with modern, high quality furnishings. The log burner, with the snow outside, was an absolute treat. A wonderful cottage to relax and recharge in. The dog friendly garden, walks around the village and a vast array of walks in the surrounding area, rounded off our stay. So much so, we are already booked to go back.

Beautiful cottage in Malvern, well appointed with everything you would need and more!

Parking off road, on drive a little tight for an estate car, but we managed admirably. Lovely walks from cottage. Needs a porch light for coming and going at night, steps catch you out in the dark!!

Lovely well maintained property,owner was very helpful with key collection and directions would happily stay there again

At first glance, this is a cute flat in a stunning location and you can walk from the property up the hill to get incredible views of the surrounding area.

We managed to park our mini on the drive but it would be tricky for larger vehicles; more of an issue was the lack of outside lighting of any kind. We had hot water and found the bed comfortable but the aspect that marred the stay was the wetness and condensation in the property, such that we had the windows open constantly, despite the freezing temperatures. The extraction in the bathroom wasn't effective though it was the bedroom and area near the front door where it affected our comfort most: on picking up our coats to go out, we found them to be wet from the walls near the door and you could feel a little chill in the living room, near to the front door (perhaps a heavy curtain or divide there might help). It is an old property that needs better insulation or perhaps used in the drier and warmer months only. The property is small but could be cosy for a couple and I utilised the small table and chair (in the boot room) for work purposes. Wifi worked well for my purposes but there wasn't a good mobile signal to be had by either of us so perhaps an email address for communication would be good. Aside from the lack of lighting outside, non-slip mats and rugs would also prevent accidents. Might I also suggest having blankets for the bed, larger towels and spare supplies, such as light bulbs, toilet roll, etc. in the boot room. There wasn't any kindling or matches for the log burner. Grateful for the pint of milk and appreciate the gesture of the muffins though, sadly, I can't eat such things! There is a very small Morrisons on the main road (easily walkable) but guests would need to bring their cooking ingredients or purchase in the bigger stores in Malvern. While I'm not sure I can recommend for a winter stay, I imagine the experience would be more comfortable in the summer months. Best wishes.

First off, the parking.

Yes, there is off road parking, but BOY is it tight. A few handy hints on how to approach the parking would have been helpful. Especially for those who may be arriving in the dark. Other grumbles would include the toilet brush had “debris” in it. There was a smell in the bedroom next to one of the bedside tables. The base of the bedside lamp was wet. There was also a damp patch on the carpet underneath the bedside table along with a cupcake cup. The TV remote was damaged and possibly needed new batteries. When we opened the complimentary dog biscuits a fly came out of the jar. Needless to say, the biscuits went in the bin. The wood burner looked very tempting, but there were no matches or kindling left to start it up. To the good. When you book Kitts Cottage you are in the Malvern Hils and it is beautiful and right at the heart of all you would want access to on a trip to The Malvern Hills. The cottage is ideal for one or two people to stay. There’s a very well equipped galley kitchen with breakfast bar. Great for a quick breakfast. Not so good for an evening meal. This may be a deal breaker for some. We didn’t mind so much. Bathroom was small, well laid out and the water pressure on the shower was very good. Lounge has a very comfy sofa, wood burner and TV. Ideal for relaxing in after a long day walking. There is enough storage, if a bit scattered about. The boot room would be very useful if a visit co-insides with a wet and muddy visit. A good place to clean dogs up and change to dry shoes before entering the cottage. We greatly enjoyed our stay despite the few shadows lurking in the corners.

Nothing wrong with anything.

The cottage was lovely and very well equipped with high quality goods, and we would definitely return. The only negative was we just found the sofa a little low for us and a bit uncomfortable for a long period. A couple of armchairs would give it 100% but that's just our personal preference. An outside light would also be of benefit during winter months. We were very happy with our stay.

We had a fabulous stay at Kitt’s cottage, beautiful cottage with roses around the door.

Thankyou for the milk, eggs and cupcakes - so welcome after a long journey. So handy for the 3 Counties showground, we could walk - only 15 minutes walk across the fields, perfect. We were so sad to leave, a wonderful break. Thankyou

Loverly cottage walks on door step.

Booked again for next year. Well equipped and very clean.

Comfortable cottage.

Convent location to explore the midlands and some of Wales. Can walk from cottage to trails up to Malvern Hills.

Lovely,clean cosy cottage in a nice quiet area of Malvern.

Easy access to the hills for walking.

Lovely cottage fantastic for walking the Malvern Hills, and peaceful for resting afterwards!

Slightly smaller than expected and the front garden seemed longer in photos but despite that the cottage was both delightful and full of character.

We had a throughly enjoyable 3days despite the rather inclement weather.

A small but perfectly formed property which served us well to visit several family members in the Midlands.

Small but perfectly formed, Kitts Cottage was the ideal location for my short visit.

The weather turned colder during my stay but having extra blankets to hand and an easy to use thermostat was very welcome. Now that I know how dog friendly the cottage is and close proximity to the nature reserve and other good walks, I may bring my dogs next time. Thank you!

I have an excellent stay and Kitts Cottage provided all the necessaries for me to be really comfy and snug.

The owner was really kind and helpful, many thanks for everything.

The cottage has been furnished to a high standards.

Everything is available for your stay. Used the wood burning fire once which was easy to light and created a great atmosphere. Everything was provided for all needs.

This is a lovely little cottage; very well equipped indeed but it is tiny.

The bedroom especially is filled with the bed with just a little wriggle room each side and nowhere to put your discarded clothes. The kitchen is a good size and the sofa in the lounge is fine for two. We appreciated the milk in the fridge on arrival and the cakes!! I feel your website could be more specific about the access and parking. It is on a junction of two narrow residential streets and the angled drive is awkward. Resident parking means you have to use the driveway but anything bigger than our Rav 4 just wouldn't fit or cope with the angle of approach. Once parked in the driveway the outside space becomes very limited indeed. We enjoyed our stay in Kitts Cottage and hate to criticise but the whole point of a review is to help any potential future guests make an informed choice. There are very good walks from the door if you like hills but then you wouldn't be in Malvern if you didn't like hills. We walked down to St Wulstans nature reserve which was lovely for the dogs.

Lovely cottage, clean, well equipped and comfortable, dog friendly as well.

Welcome pack appreciated, Comfortable bed, always a bonus. Off street parking which is a smidge tricky but managed in our large car. Parked on the street in the daytime and off road in the evening mindful of the neighbours. On a quiet lane in Little Malvern, Nature Reserve a short distance away was an absolute bonus for either a quiet walk or exercising the dogs. Garden was great for eating outdoors or watching the comings and goings. Saw ? Kites/ Buzzards flying above our heads. Also Paraglider's enjoying the thermals. Malvern Hill Hotel a mile away was friendly and great food. Eat in or plenty outdoor seating. Also dog friendly.

Sweetest little cottage, great position to explore the Malverns.

Very helpful owner. Quiet, well equipped. Good wifi, lovely deep bath, plenty of hot water. Had a lovely week there. Very tiny garden, but dog proof.

The cottage its beautifully presented, well furnished and equipped with everything needed.

Spotlessly clean and a very comfortable bed. The welcome tray was very much appreciated after a long journey.

A lovely little cottage for two.

Contact with owner brilliant. Managed to park on the drive in our medium sized car. Good information in the cottage but be aware that phone signal is poor. Thank you for a lovely time.

Rachele the owner was magnificent.

She went above and beyond to help us in our first day when our car broke down. The cottage was beautiful inside and out. Small but perfectly arranged with all the amenities you need. Being dog friendly as well made all the difference. A lovely cottage to walk from the door up the Malvern hills and even into Malvern itself. A thoroughly lovely week made even better by the lovely Rachele.

This is a lovely little cottage, has all the necessary amenities even though it is smaller it does not distract from the services.

The owner, Rachel is very helpful, leaves message for you and also treat of Chocolate cake and some welcome milk in fridge. The surprise was 2 lovely big bowls for Molly and a jar of crunchy biscuits, she was happy. So book for a couple and dog, there are good walks nearby.

Bed just slightly strange on one side, felt like I was sliding down one side a little.

We were happily surprised at how well appointed this lovely little cottage was and the history surrounding it made it even more special.

A little gem and obviously well loved by the owner. We wouldn’t hesitate to book again if it is available next time we are visiting the area.

Lovely cosy cottage.

Enjoyed great walks with the dogs. Dined out several times food really good. Visited Ledbury and shopped in Worcester. Overall we had a very nice break.

Excellent property, cant fault.

Will return

We had a lovely stay at kitts cottage.

Such a lovely little cottage. Very clean and tidy and very well looked after.

A lovely little cottage with everything catered for and in a lovely area of the country.

Lovely little cottage with good walks from the door.

Well equipped and we found using the driveway to be no problem at all. Great to have a boot/bike room too. Beautiful area which is so dog friendly everywhere. Thank you!

A lovely decorated cottage everything you need is there thank you for the welcome goodies the only downside is the parking perhaps it would help to widen the driveway as the spaces on the road were taken we did manage to get in the drive a smaller car would have had no problem but a lovely stay none the less

Gorgeous little perfectly formed cottage.

Everything you need is there. Really enjoyed the wood burner. Made the whole cottage comfy and cosy. Our aim was to have a quiet break away from home. We got that and more. Owner has certainly made it a home from home.Would definitely recommend it to others.

Kitts Cottage is small but comfy and well equipped, very clean.

Great location for exploring the Malvern Hills.

The cottage is really lovely; small but perfect for 2 people for a hilly getaway.

The owner, Rachele, was super helpful and accommodating. She even left a little basket of goodies there for us on arrival. I would definitely recommend Kitts Cottage, but be aware, it’s quite remote so you will need a car!

An ideal base for our holiday with everything you could need.

Comfortable, clean and really quiet, with a really comfy bed and off road parking. The goodies left for us were a lovely thought and much appreciated. The owner was friendly and approachable. A footpath through the woods within 100yds was a boon to walk the dogs in the morning. We enjoyed our stay, thank you.

It was beautifully presented and so well equipped with everything we needed.

Such a lovely location and in an ideal place for visiting the Malverns; the furthest we ever travelled somewhere was only 20 minutes away! The hamper was a lovely touch and we felt relaxed as soon as we walked through the (cute stable) door.

We had a lovely stay at Kitts Cottage.

..very clean and comfortable and a good location to be able to walk in the Hills, which managed to wear out the spaniels!

Kitts Cottage is a lovely place - a home from home.

Little, cosy and romantic, the beautiful kitchen provided with everything you need. The owner is very kind, helpful and easy-going. One highlight was the welcome-pack, even for our dog. She felt at home immediately - as we did. We would recommend Kitts Cottage anytime. It's unforgettable.

We couldn’t of asked for more with this property.

It was exactly the idyllic, peaceful and homely experience we were after. The cottage is compact but was just right for me, my partner and our 2 dogs. Everything we could of possibly needed was provided and the welcome hamper, dog treats and filled water bowl was such a thoughtful touch. Highly recommend, and if ever we was to choose to visit this area again, Kitts cottage would be our first choice of accommodation. Amy & James

A delightful cottage in every way, even including a generous welcome gift in the kitchen and fridge!

A very comfy, cosy cottage ideal for a couple (plus dogs).

Great location for exploring the Malvern Hills and surrounding area. Fantastic welcome basket, best we’ve ever had, and treats for the boys as well.

Both my wife and I thoroughly enjoyed our stay at Kitts Cottage, it maybe small but what a gem.

The property is clean, modern and well maintained, the kitchen is very well equipped and the extras provided by the owner for ourselves and the dogs was much appreciated. We have recommended this cottage to friends.

A beautiful little property with absolutely everything you need provided.

It is very comfortable, with a small but peaceful garden, exceptionally clean and thoughtfully presented with many personal touches. Parking is manageable with a little care in a quiet area. It is an excellent base for exploring the area with interesting places both nearby ( including a nature reserve within walking distance ,and towns such as Ledbury, Upton on Severn) and further away such as the Cotswolds and the Welsh borders - Hergest Croft gardens are a must if you like tranquility ! We had a very relaxing and enjoyable holiday and will come back again. Richard and Helen.

Delightful cozy cottage .

.amazing standard of cleanliness and beautifully presented. Thoughtful touches like welcome basket of goodies and treats for the dog...everything worked and almost most importantly the bed was super comfortable

Kitt’s Cottage was everything we could have wished for.

Fabulous welcome basket, personal note from the owner and excellent communication when I needed help. Such a haven! Thankyou!

Beautiful little cottage, enjoyed reading about the history of it.

It was spotless and everything you needed was catered for. ( even dog bowls ) A very thoughtful welcome pack was a lovely touch, and dog treats . The only little niggle was how low lounge seating was , but thats us being in the oldies bracket, couple of armchairs would suit better. The " to die for bath " helped ease the old back. Beautiful area, lots to do, see and stunning walks.

Lovely place - a beautiful retreat - in an idyllic location - we went with the intention of visiting Malvern - but on finding it busier than I remembered from past visits ended up spending more time in Upton - on- Severn Bromyard Tewkesbury and Ledbury.

Lovely little cottage in a great location, really thoughtfully decorated and kitted out to maximise the space and offer everything you need.

It was spotlessly clean, the bed was comfortable and the blinds kept out the early morning light. The kitchen is really well equipped but if you don’t fancy cooking, there are lots of places to eat within a short drive and also that will deliver. Such a lovely area, we were there with our dog and spent our days out walking, absolutely spoilt for choice with places to walk, lots of hills but plenty flatter areas too including a really nice nature reserve which is walkable from the cottage. It’s a very dog friendly area, definitely worth a visit and we’d highly recommend Kitts Cottage.

We found the cottage as described.

Lovely fixtures and fittings. Parking tricky but as described and we can drive !!!!! Lovely basket of food, nice to have milk, last cottage we stayed in had none and we had to drive 9 miles to get some. We are lucky that we are both no more than 10.5 stone, I think large guests would struggle as only about a foot around the bed. Sweet garden too.

The cottage was a really nice place to stay, very comfortable and the area was really quiet.

. Everything we might have needed for our stay was provided.

Beautiful cottage set with in walking distance for the Malvern hills.

. Excellently maintained Contained everything needed and more Welcome basket the best we’ve ever had.. Our host was easy to contact if needed which is always reassuring.. We are about to convert an outbuilding ourselves my goal now is to make it as beautiful as kitts cottage..

This was a lovely, bright and clean cottage.

It had everything we needed including a very nice welcome pack and note from the owner. We would thoroughly recommend this for a short break in the stunning Malvern Hills as it is so convenient to interesting places to visit.

Lovely cottage and easy to communicate with the owner.

What a beautiful cottage it was a pleasure to stay in .

It was immaculate lovely decor loved the log burner so cosy . Rachele the owner left a lovely welcome basket which was so thoughtful even down to treats for my dog . The cottage is in the most beautiful setting the hills right on your doorstep. I couldn’t recommend this cottage highly enough amazing will definitely be back

Quaint ,clean ,very well equipped.

Comprehensive information about the property and the area . Close to Malvern and the Hills. Lovely welcome basket and very easy pleasant communications with the owner Rachele

We had a lovely stay, the cottage had everything to make it comfortable for us and the dogs.

The welcome pack was a nice touch. It was in a perfect location to explore Malvern and the surroundings. The only slight downside was the parking, which we knew about before hand, we couldn’t get on the drive and had to park on the road when we could find a space.

Lovely little cottage in a beautiful location.

It had everything we needed for our four day break. The welcome basket was very well received, everything in it was perfect for us. Secure garden for the dogs and dog bowls and treats provided. A fresh bowl of water was already down waiting for the dogs when we arrived, great after a long drive. Lovely deep bath, great for relaxing after a long day walking. Rachele is very on hand with any questions you may have. We would definitely recommend this cottage for a peaceful get away.

Extremely well equipped kitchen.

Lovely hobbit wood burner for chilly nights. The welcome pack was very nice. Host was very easily contacted and personable. It would be our first choice if we came to Malvern again.

Lovely, quirky, quiet and clean property.

It was smaller than we thought it would be but it had everything we needed. Location was really good. We enjoyed being able to walk to the local pub, The Railway, which was 1.5 miles away and served good beer and decent food. The welcome pack was lovely and consisted of bread, butter, crisps, biscuits, milk, cake and Tunnocks tea cakes (a blast from the past but delicious). There were treats for the dog as well. Overall, a great property and beautiful setting with lots of walks nearby and views across the county.

Lovely little cottage.

Had everything we needed for the week and a really kind welcome pack, and very comfy bed.

Had a marvelous few days at this gorgeous little cottage with everything you could possibly want for a perfect break.

Situated at the foot of the Malvern Hills there was no reason to move the car once parked on the driveway and the welcome basket provided by Rachele was lovely including the doggie treats . Will definitely return

Beautiful and very cute property in the perfect location to local shops, pubs, restaurants and the ‘Three Counties Showground’.

People mentioned about the drive being difficult to get on to but we reversed in and had no difficulty. The owner made us feel very welcome with her message before we got there and with a lovely welcome basket, very kind and thoughtful, we thoroughly enjoyed our stay and have already booked the property for my parents to have a holiday.

We loved our holiday at Kitts Cottage.

What a lovely place, with all you need for a comfortable stay. The welcome pack was a fabulous addition and the fireplace was so cosy. The house is in great condition and decorated to a very high standard. The kitchen has everything you need including a washing machine and dishwasher and Rachele was the ultimate host. Would certainly want to return again with so much on the doorstep to do and will recommend to our friends. Thanks for making the start to 2022 a great one.

We came away to Kitts Cottage across the New Year period on our late honeymoon and couldn't have been happier with our choice.

The location is just stunning and the love and attention to detail that the owner has put into the property is exceptional. This period cottage has all the modern facilities you would expect and the wood burner adds to the already cosy and relaxing ambience. We would have no hesitation returning at some point in the near future.

Beautiful cottage situated in the Malvern Hills, an area of outstanding natural beauty.

Upon arrival at the cottage we were greeted with a fully decorated and lit Christmas tree which immediately set the tone for a wonderful Christmas break. Our host(ess) provided a welcome pack, the like of which we have never previously seen, it was unexpected and incredibly generous. The cottage is beautifully decorated and maintained. It is kitted out with just about every convenience you might require during your stay. All in all, a beautiful cottage in a beautiful setting which we can highly recommend. We will definitely be visiting again.

A comfortable and enjoyable stay at Kitts Cottage.

Care was taken to make us feel special and welcome and I would recommend a stay.

Lovely little cottage perfect for two people,cosy and Wright on the Malvern hills

A very cosy, comfortable and clean cottage.

Very well equipped with everything required for a relaxing weeks holiday.

Had a great time at Kitts Cottage.

It had everything we needed, Rachele was a perfect host. An ideal place for walking and exploring the Malvern hills and the surrounding area. Accommodation was comfortable and it was great we could bring our dog with us. We would certainly recommend it to everyone and we would use it again.

Kiits cottage is a real gem in the Cotswolds.

The owner is on hand with help and advice if needed and she has made it a really comfortable holiday destination. It is set in a picturesque area, with Malvern Hills right on the doorstep. Out two little dogs were made as welcome as we were, with doggy treats and bowls left for our use. There was a lovely welcome basket which was greatly appreciated after our long journey. I wouldn't hesitate to recommend Kitts cottage and if we are ever in that part of the world again we will definitely stay again.

The cottage is small but perfectly formed.

Ráchele provided many thoughtful touches and a generous welcome pack, including gluten free treats ( I am coeliac) and dog bowls plus biscuits for our Border terrier. The new gate has solved previously mentioned problems of parking in the drive too. Lovely walks nearby .

Kitts cottage is a beautiful little cottage but has everything you need home from home,Rachel the owner is on standby for anything you may need or want to know and even leaves a starter hamper, I would definitely recommend this property and the walking is amazing and straight from the front door, although near a road we never heard any traffic was so peaceful and a lovely place to relax, I’m sure we will return.

The cottage is very well equiped and comfortable in a nice quiet location, ideal for walking in the Malvern Hills.

There are plenty of good quality pubs, cafes and restaurants in the area and the towns of Ledbury, Upton on Severn, Tewksbury and Worcester are within easy reach. The owners welcome pack and note was a lovely touch.

A delightfully appointed property of a style seen in show houses - modest grasp of everyday living needs.

Sykes, after (15 years with you) shame on you for your flowery marketing. We lasted 3 days out of seven. Unrealistic to expect any intervention/resolution by approachable owner during stay.

The cottage was really lovely and had everything we needed for a delightful short stay in The Malverns.

Superb dog friendly cottage.

Rachele, the owner, went above and beyond to welcome us and help us to enjoy our stay. Immaculate cottage & we would definitely recommend.

This cottage most certainly has the romantic wow factor.

It's decorated with such style and just beautiful. The owner leaves a thoughtful hamper on arrival and such detailed info on the area and cottage. Would 100% return...

Loads of crockery etc - too much for two people.

There is one cupboard in the kitchen which has kitchen items and we missed not having somewhere to store non-perishables as this would have been ideal. That said, it was an inconvenience and no more. The actual cottage is spotless, well-maintained and Rachel had let us know we could contact her if we had any issues. We had no need to contact her - a really nice break.

Four in the bed recommendation

Well equipped, lovely cottage, lots of great walks on the doorstep, a perfect getaway for me, my partner and our dog.

Beautiful cottage we truly enjoyed our stay very clean high speck all mod cons provided - exceeded our expectations and welcome pack was lovely

We had a lovely week in Kitts Cottage.

It is small, but intelligently set up: we were very comfortable. The kitchen is particularly well equipped - we enjoyed cooking every night. The location is excellent - cross one main road, and you are on a path that leads straight to up (half way along) the main Malvern ridge, all of which we explored from our door. We shall certainly be back.

Kitts Cottage is small but beautifully put together.

Quality fittings, furniture and utensils. Quiet location.

Kitts Cottage is small but perfectly formed!

I loved the care and attention to detail throughout. The woodburner was lovely and everything was of good quality. Comfortable bed too. On top of all that, the Malvern Hills are just a couple of minutes' walk away, as are other footpaths for walking the dog.

We had the most wonderful time at Kitts Cottage, the most perfect getaway in the Malvern Hills.

Accommodation 10/10! Throughly recommended!

Lovely Property really well appointed & Beautifully presented.

Ideally situated for walking the Malvern Hills literally from the Front door. Just what we wanted. A great hamper left for us & the owner left us a lovely welcome note. Super few days away in a difficult time.

What a fantastic cottage.

So well located near the Malvern Hills you can even access them from the cottage without having to get in the car. The owner was very efficient with all the details that we needed and left a wonderful starter basket of food including a cake. The information booklet gave us local restaurants and bars. The owners were also very dog friendly and left ours a bag of treats. One of the loveliest cottages we have ever stayed in and would highly recommend.

We had a wonderful stay at Kitts Cottage.

Whilst the accommodation is compact the cottage is very well equiped and comfortable. The setting is great for walkers, being perched half way up the Malvern Hills, plus there are many other walks locally. There are plenty of good quality pubs, cafes and restaurants in the area and the towns of Ledbury, Upton on Severn and Worcester are within easy reach. The owners welcome pack was much appreciated. We loved our stay and would definitely consider returning.

The little things like the welcome pack and clean accommodation.

Lovely little cottage very clean and very welcoming, there was cake biscuits milk and butter, even dog biscuits, very thoughtful.

Absolutely perfect in every way.

Immaculate tiny cottage which is beautiful and super clean. Bed lovely and comfy. The owner is so lovely and leaves a thoughtful hamper which is a wonderful touch. The cottage is small but wonderfully decorated and very cosy and romantic. We absolutely loved our stay here and would 100%, recommend and return.

Stunning area and location.

Kitts Cottage was home from home. Although we didn't get to meet Rachele she thought of the little things that made it like a home. Like leaving a basket full of goodies and milk in the fridge and the radio on! Happy!☺

Kitts Cottage is ideally located for access to the Malvern Hills and walks.

Also easy access to local towns and attractions. The cottage is so warm and cosy and has everything you need for a comfortable stay, decorated to a very high standard. I don't think we have ever stayed anywhere where the bed was as comfortable or the kitchen so well equipped. The welcome basket for us and treats for the dogs was very well received. Would definitely recommend and stay here again.

The communication before arrival was superb, all requests were dealt with by Rachele very quickly and nothing was to much trouble.

The cottage was just what we were looking for and everything we needed was there, the welcome basket was a nice surprise. Storm Denis kept us from venturing out too far but it really didn’t matter as the log burner and the cosy nature of Kitts Cottage made staying put a real treat.

Perfect location for walking in the Malvern hills.

I chose this cottage as it looked cosy and in a quiet location.

It met both expectations perfectly.

This quaint cottage is small in size but packs a big punch!

Perfect for exploring the Malvern hills and surrounding country side it has everything you need. The owners have thoughtfully combined contemporary with classic in this traditional building with all the comforts you will need.. thank you Rachele we had a relaxing and enjoyable stay.

Lovely cottage great location all went well nice welcome pack

We found the attention to detail above expectations and Rachele kind touches throughout the cottage made for a very pleasant holiday.

We also found Rachele to be very accommodating and would recommend to our friends and family

Kitts Cottage was a great find.

Tastefully modernised and decorated; extremely well equipped and very clean. The welcome basket was a very nice touch and treats left for our two dogs also. The location is great for gaining immediate access up onto the Malvern Hills and plenty of walks for the dogs too. The enclosed garden meant we could let the dogs relax in the garden without any worries of them getting out. Equally the little patio area with the table and chairs meant we had most of our meals ‘al-fresco’. Rachele was extremely helpful and very pro-active – even messaging us on the day of our arrival to let us know we could gain access early. We would thoroughly recommend Kitts Cottage and we will be going back again in the near future.

Kitts Cottage certainly exceeded our expectations from the initial booking, joining instructions and during our stay.

The owner provided a welcome basket plus some goodies for our dog too

The cottage was absolutely lovely .

Cosy quirky and an ideal setting for taking our dog. We could relax in the garden and walk from the house for our daily adventures. The host was very helpful and on hand if needed. Would highly recommend kitts cottage. Hopefully we will visit again.

Kitts cottage is a small but beautiful cottage in a great location for walking straight into the Malvern Hills.

Rachele had left us a lovely welcome basket which included a present for the dogs. In the cottage there’s loads of useful information on things to do and places to eat, which was really helpful. I can’t wait to come back in the winter so we can try out the log burner! This really is a gem of a place and well worth a stay

Kitts Cottage was just perfect for us.

Great communication before, during and after our stay & some lovely little touches left for our arrival including dog treats. Modern, clean & tasteful, it was great and we’ll be back. Thank you.

We spent a week at Kitts Cottage which was located in a lovely position in Malvern.

The cottage was fully equiped , very clean and a pleasure to return to after a full day out exploring the surrounding area. The owner left a very nice Welcome Pack for us , and one for the dog also , which we found a great help after a long car journey from our home in Northumberland. All in all a little gem of a cottage which we would be happy to recommend to friends and family. I would also add that the whole experience of booking our holiday with Sykes was made very easy with great communication from both Sykes and the owner of Kitts Cottage.

Kits cottage certainly does not have off road parking.

The camber of the drive from directly off the road is very high. We did attempt to park the car off road! If we had carried through with the parking we would have had multiple paint and bodywork to be done. The drive needs to be lowered in line more with the road. Also you cannot open the left hand gate (from the road) far enough as it hits the road. We had to park in the narrow road directly outside the property only just being able to exit the car. If I had known there was not any off road parking I would not have booked Kitts Cottage. We had a neighbour visit us on our first tea time there and asked us to move our car further towards the T-junction as there is also a salt bin on the opposite side of the road and it makes it very difficult for the local residents to get passed. Apparently she has to this every Friday when new occupants arrive. She did say it was annoying. We felt perhaps not wanted, and to be perfectly honest I cannot blame them. Also there is not really anywhere you can eat a supper...not wanting to sit at a very small breakfast bar. I know there is a very small table and 2 chairs in the boot room. We were lucky we ate outside, although I must say on very uncomfortable chairs. There was also 4 chipped plates in the kitchen...not nice. The dishwasher could do with a good clean on the sides. The TV aerial was not working on our first night, although the owners did come out on Saturday afternoon. There will be further problems with the aerial has has only wiggled it around somewhat! I realised when booking the cottage it was small but it is very small. To sum up, I would never book anywhere without off road parking, it’s important to us to know our car is safe. Also I felt uncomfortable knowing what the neighbours think of all the different people in and out of the area. I don’t think this cottage is up to your normal high quality of service. I hope you will send a representative to the cottage to look at the high camber of the drive. Malvern is a very beautiful town, we loved it.

Getting on and off the driveway is not easy.

The ramped access is too steep.

Kitts Cottage is a really cosy comfy cottage, spotlessly clean with everything needed to hand.

The small garden was ideal for sitting outside in the sun and our Jack Russell, Rosie, loved it. Rachele left us a lovely basket of goodies which was really appreciated. She even contacted us to say we could arrive as early as we wanted as the previous couple left on the Thursday. Can thoroughly recommend visiting Tewksbury and the National Trust property Croomb Park. The only thing we had a problem is with the parking at the cottage. We couldn’t park on the drive as one of the gates only opened half way so we had to park on the road which, as the cottage is on a steepish hill and being right next to a T junction, meant we had to park right next to the wall which was Three feet from the T junction

Kitts Cottage is a beautiful property that has been lovingly restored by the owner.

The design and decor is exactly what we would have chosen and we considered asking if we could buy the cottage so we'd never have to leave. The bed was incredibly comfortable so you can't help but have a good night's sleep. The kitchen makes the best use of space and is well equipped, the bathroom is stunning with a lovely deep bath, and the living room has everything you need for relaxing in the evening. The log burner makes it cosy and warm. There were fresh flowers in the living room, a lovely welcome basket for us and some treats for the dog. The garden is enclosed (perfect for the dog) and you can eat out there when it's sunny. Perfect. This is one of the nicest cottages we have stayed in and we'll definitely be returning for another break later in the year. 10/10.

A revisit to this wonderful cottage for us as my wife used to live in it.

It’s a very special place and has been beautifully and sympathetically refurbished. It’s the perfect base to climb up to the MalvernHills and a short walk to the Malvern Hills hotel which is good for a meal and a drink. A perfect place to stay for a couple and a pet dog. The welcome pack was also thoughtful and very generous.

Great cottage, was very comfortable and was extremely clean with great facilities.

The welcome hamper was a lovely touch too. Was ideally situated with lots of places to visit nearby but also walks on your doorstep. Had a lovely holiday, very relaxing but also enjoyed the walks and visits.

So peaceful, lovely little garden to sit in that kept the sun all day.

Cottage had everything you could possibly need

Beautiful cottage in an ideal spot to explore the Malvern Hills.

We were looked after by the owner Rachele even before we arrived through email, making sure our needs were met with little extra touches. During our stay, I had peace of mind that if there was a problem, Rachele was on hand to sort it. Thankfully everything was perfect for us. We look forward to returning to Kitts Cottage soon.

Fantastic location for walking the Malvern hills especially if you have dogs, they thoroughly enjoyed it.

Amazing cottage home from home lovely touches through out lovely part of the country

The care to attention demonstrated by the owner was wonderful- small things like a welcome basket and small instructions carefully placed.

She also gave her number should we need anything which was very considerate. I would most definitely go back and would recommend the location. The only comment, which is not really anything to do with the house or owner, is that it had neighbours and a school close by. A more isolated location would have been nice. But this is a personal preference and not something that reflects on the care to attention given. I had the dog with me, he loved it. There isn’t a back garden though and so he had to be supervised whenever he was out front to stretch his legs. The garden was not very big and so probably not ideal for a larger dog as we have, but regardless, for a couple or one person as I was, it was nice. I did have the plumber pop round to read the boiler, I didn’t expect this or particularly appreciate it during a holiday- I would suggest this is done when guests are not in resident next time. All in all 5* for care to attention and consideration from the owner. 4* for the position and amenities of the cottage itself. Thank you Rachele for a lovely stay :)

Lovely cottage in an ideal positon to walk the Malvern Hills, great welcome pack for both us and our dogs.

Very clean and comfortable, a lot of thought has gone into the fixtures and furnishings. Two very tired dogs and humans at the end of the week!

The cottage was so well equipped with welcome basket of food and treats for the dogs.

It was very clean and comfortable, the bath was lovely after a day walking and the bed was extremely comfortable. The cottage made our break very enjoyable. Thanks ever so much

Lovely cottage decorated beautifully.

Treats left upon arrival for ourselves and our rabbit (much appreciated!) Good location for surrounding amenities and lots to do around, 5*. Thankyou :)

Kitts Cottage was very comfortable and stylishly decorated with high quality furniture and equipment.

It was very well equipped - better than any other cottage we've stayed in. The welcome basket left for our arrival was a nice touch. We noticed that most other guests had brought their dog with them from the visitor book. Unfortunately we think that people must have allowed their dogs on the settee and cushions as there was a bit of a doggy smell- not the cottage owner's fault but irresponsible pet owners. However, this was the only minus and overall we had a great holiday experience.

The cottage was absolutely perfect.

The attention to detail was amazing, the welcome basket filled with goodies, well equipped and furnished to a very high standard. Brilliant location close to lots of cotswold villages. Will definitely book again! Thank you!

Everything was very good,even the very hot weather.

My wife and I really enjoyed it.

I have suggested to the owner that having some fans and comfortable outdoor furniture would improve the facilities.

The cottage exceeded our expectations however we struggled to park near to the property due to lack of space and had to park two streets away.

Not ideal

Beautifully and very tastefully appointed cottage equipped with everything needed for a good holiday.

Lovely welcome pack on arrival was a thoughtful touch and included goodies for the dog! Fresh flowers too. Excellent location in a wonderful part of the country. Would definitely recommend this cottage.

Lovely cosy cottage and the welcome pack was very much appreciated

Lovely cottage and area.

A little more information about how tight the parking would be but apart from this the whole experience was very good.

Fab cottage, warm, incredibly well-equipped, perfectly located for walking the Malverns or visiting the surrounding towns.

A most beautifully clean and well presented cottage, where the owner had gone out of their way to make you feel welcome.

Dog friendly too. Highly recommended. Thank you.

Welcome basket of goodies well received.

Excellent facilities and decor. Good location for walking in the Malvern Hills, just from the doorstep

Great property very hard to beat , lovely location .

Will recommend to family & friends . We will return soon .

This was a gem of a cottage offering much more than others we have used.

The personal care the owner gives to Kitts Cottage makes it a happy and memorable visit. The Malvern area has much to offer and our first visit to it was a great success.

A wonderful little gem.

Welcome basket of goodies for us and our dog. Just loved it.
