A beautiful place to stay! Caroline and Paul were so friendly and welcoming.Spotlessly clean and equipped with everything you could possibly need!We had a lovely, relaxing break, the bed was very comfortable and the cottage was warm and cosy.The surrounding area was beautiful and it was nice to be close to Alcester so we could just wander down and have a meal and a little wander.

I stayed in this clean & comfortable cottage for a month and absolutely loved it. It had everything I wanted/ needed for a wonderful time,& the whole place was thoughtfully laid out. The bedroom had a king sized bed in a nice sized bedroom with a built in wardrobe, good bedside lighting, there was a great kitchen & bathroom both well supplied with thoughtful touches, great counter space, and storage. There was starter coffee,tea creamer, etc when I arrived, the owners even brought me fresh eggs from their chickens 1 week! They were the perfect mix of friendly while allowing me as much privacy as I wanted. The shared Yard; with a gazebo,the river flowing along the back of the property, chaise lawn chairs, a few respectful chickens and 2 of the sweetest dogs ever(only out on leash unless I requested they stay out with me) it was heaven. They had area brochures out 4 me, answered all my questions and even told me about some things in the area to see that I might have overlooked (IE the only pub with a National Trust Plaque), a forest a 3 minute walk away to explore, and lots of area walk brochures, which I took full advantage of. I even made a few friends & we did some great long walks. So a fabulous place, and the village & area was so lovely, The Cotswold's were a close drive and there were many other spots close by to see.(u do want a car) I will be back again the next time I come to the UK!

Truly peaceful cottage. Check in was so easy. The cottage was spotless - we really appreciated the toweling robes such a warm touch. The bathroom and kitchen were both sparkling clean. We were able to relax and take in the English country vibe. Thank you to our hosts who were so friendly and offered great advice of what to see and where to go. Thank you. We hope to be back next time we travel from Australia.

Heron View Cottage - A Gem
This accomodation is an absolute gem...from everything from the owners (Caroline & Paul) .....to the dogs (Clarabella, Amos & Rosie) to the chickens, the country garden and the River Arrow that runs along the bottom of it. The cottage itself is cosy and welcoming with a super king bed that provided a sounds nights sleep. The town is a 5 minute scenic walk and is very pretty. We intend to return.
