Small Lane Cottage Reviews

Beverley
Another fantastic stay! The cottage was absolutely immaculate, and the hot tub was maintained throughout our visit, which was brilliant. Its the perfect place to completely switch off, relax and enjoy some quality time away from everything. Nothing is ever too much trouble for the owners, who always make us feel so welcome. This was our third visit, which really says it all, and we already know well be returning again. We especially love that its a working farm having the cows around just adds to the charm and makes the whole experience feel even more special. We honestly cant recommend it enough and are already looking forward to our next stay!
Great place, top quality. Well equipped. Could not fault. Shared games room. Hot tub very clean. Comfy beds, well decorated. Owner lovely and chatted when visited to do hot tub. Very obliging and lovely lady. Comfortable cottage done to a high standard. Perfect!
Such a feel good family holiday. Small lane Cottage fantastic. Couldnt fault it. Lots of great places to visit, beautiful area. We will be back.
We thought that this property was fabulous. Never a dull moment what with the hot tub and the games room for the evenings. The kitchen was fitted with all the necessary items plus more and they were all high quality goods. The large extendable dining table made for great family quality meal times. The location was incredibly peaceful and quiet. Thoroughly recommend this property for families or groups of couples.
Rebecca
Thank you so much for the wonderful stay, the listing is exactly as described and it is a beautiful property. The hosts were extremely helpful and lovely when I had any questions or concerns. Yes also this property is on a working farm, so there can be smells and flies from time to time etc, but you should really expect that. I personally just packed some room spray with me and we LOVED seeing the cows each day <3
Stunning views over the countryside, a very well equipped and comfortable cottage, a friendly host a brilliant place to enjoy a holiday!
Jeanette
One of the most outstanding properties I have ever stayed in. If you are looking for luxury then this is the place to stay. Immaculate inside and out. The owners could not have been more helpful. The hot tub was cleaned and checked daily. The location is wonderful and peaceful with so much wildlife to be seen. A little slice of heaven. The games room has everything you could want. I really did not want to leave. Thanks Liz and family for the very best stay!
Gareth
A great stay in Small Lane Cottage. The place is unbelievable and weve had a great time away as a family. The reviews tell you everything about how good this cottage is. Excellent communication from Liz, cant do enough for you from the word go. Thank you. We will definitely be back.
Shanesh
We had a wonderful stay and couldnt have been happier with this accommodation. The property was absolutely immaculate , everything was spotless, beautifully maintained, and felt brand new. It was clear that a lot of care and attention had gone into making it a comfortable and welcoming place for guests. The hostess was truly exceptional. She was so warm, friendly, and helpful throughout our stay, making us feel at home from the moment we arrived. Nothing was too much trouble, and her kindness really made our experience even more special. The surroundings were stunning and peaceful, with beautiful scenery that made it the perfect place to relax and unwind. There was plenty to do for everyone, and we especially loved the gaming room, where we had so much fun and created some lovely family memories together. Overall, this was one of the best places we have stayed. Clean, modern, wellequipped, and located in amazing surroundings with a fantastic host. We would highly recommend this property to anyone looking for a relaxing and enjoyable getaway, and we would definitely love to return in the future. Thank you for such a memorable stay!
This is a beautiful cottage which had everything we needed for a wonderful stay.
This is a great house and location. We have a fab time and will be coming back. Thank you
Jessica
The cottage is absolutely stunning and the host Liz was so accommodating and couldnt help enough. We had a fabulous weekend and hope to be back in the future! Thank you Liz!
What a beautiful cottage surrounded by open countryside. Well equipped with a great hot tub which we all enjoyed. Hot tub was checked & cleaned every morning. The garden was great for the children to play in and equipped with enough chairs for the garden table for the 8 of us. Living area, bedrooms, bathrooms were perfect. The games room was well equipped but the weather was so lovely we didnt use it. We needed to contact the owner and she responded very quickly and resolved the issue we had. Having an electric charger was a bonus of us. We would definitely recommend and hope to revisit sometime.
We loved this spacious, warm, comfortable cottage. It's in a lovely quiet spot with a beautiful view of the countryside.
We had an incredible stay at this cottage. The whole place is finished to a genuinely high spec, and the interiors are stunning every detail has clearly been thought through with real care. The facilities are outstanding, and the games room in particular is on another level. It kept everyone entertained for hours. Its rare to find somewhere that feels both luxurious and completely comfortable, but this cottage absolutely delivers. Well definitely be stopping again.
Stella
The 7 ladies Aunties & cousins that visited Small lane Cottage, loved it. So much so, we could have stayed the week. Everything was perfect. Stunning views, lovely hot tub. So peaceful. Great bedsbedding. It had everything and more of what we needed. Would highly recommend. Liz was lovely too x
A fantastic property, with great facilities, all of which were at the highest standard. Liz could not do more to help and offered a great service, asking questions about the extras we may want I requested a travel cot, and then noting this, Liz asked if we needed a highchair and the stairgates, which is going above and beyond and the room configuration which we wanted.
Luxurious property in a fabulous rural setting with outstanding countryside views. Eight of us had a great time celebrating a big birthday. I could easily live there! Good communication from the owners. Highly recommended.
The cottage is AMAZING. We walked in and went wow. Everything you could need was there hot tub towels, bath and hand towels, tea towers kitchen towel Kitchen roll. There was even a little welcome pack with eggs, milk, tea bags etc. The bedrooms were all big no need to fight over which one you had and had plenty of storage and with three bathrooms you were spoilt for choice. We were there for New Year and although it was cold outside it was perfect in the cottage. Everything was high spec. My favourite place was the landing with two chairs every morning I would make a cuppa and sit and relax. The hot tub was ready from the minute we got there and in a perfectly private position. Games room so much to do in here. Darts board with darts, full size snooker table with lots of cues and rests. Table football, tv and table tennis. There was even a bar table and chairs for those wanting to watch. It is little colder in there but there are heaters for you to use. It is a very quiet and remote location but close enough to get to pubs, walks, restaurants and a town centre but you will need a car if you want to get around. We could not fault anything and would not hesitate to go back. If you are looking at booking Small Lane Cottage then get it booked you will not be disappointed
Liz was absolutely wonderful and very kind and accommodating for our Hen do weekend! Small Lane cottage is even more impressive in person! Everything is done to a high standard with a homely feel to it, the cottage is so cosy and well equipped ! And the views are so beautiful ! We and the best time here and we would love to go back one day ! Thanks for having us and looking after us so well. We highly recommend your beautiful home to anyone wanting a countryside get away in style!
We stayed as a group of seven women, who are lifelong friends. The cottage was clean, nicely decorated and perfect for us. I had contacted Liz prior to us arriving, to sort out splitting some beds, and this was done
The venue was so much more than expected. Felt so welcoming from the moment we entered. The facilities provided more than expected it made our break one we will never forget. I rarely stay at the same place twice but already hoping to bock again as soon as possible only downside was having to go home.
Averil
We spent a week at Small Lane Cottage, the house, furnishings, facilities and surroundings are fantastic. We enjoyed the hot tub and games barn.
Lesley
Small Lane Cottage was beautiful, full of high end fixtures and fittings. Beds were so comfortable, that it was a struggle to get out of them . Sitting in the hot tub looking at the stunning views was my highlight. Liz was an absolute fantastic hostess, and I highly recommend you visit this beautiful cottage. Would love to come back as a weekend wasnt long enough.
Excellant accommodation. As we were all over 80 it was disappointing that it indicated we should strip the beds before leaving, left a bad taste as the last thing we did.
We had a Wonderful stay at Small lane cottage, Liz was so helpful with information about the local area. It was a Beautiful cottage, we will return & would recommend this cottage to family & friends thank you
We had a fantastic 10 days at Small Lane Cottage, it was exactly as described and photographed. Very well equipped and comfortable, hot tub checked daily. Liz was very friendly and helpful, kept us informed and asked us if we needed any more towels. Kitchen had everything you would need, a true home from home. You can tell they had really thought about it. The fixtures and fittings were modern and luxury which is what made us book in the first place, much better than your usual holiday rental. We enjoyed how quiet it was and peaceful. Having the electric charger was so handy due to having 2 electric cars with us.
We had a Wonderful stay at Small lane cottage, Liz was so helpful with information about the local area. It was a Beautiful cottage, we will return & would recommend this cottage to family & friends thank you

Kathryn
Small Lane Cottage is amazing! Absolutely everything has been thought of and if you did find you needed something Liz and Reuban are so accommodating you won't be without it for long! We went with our daughter, son in law and their 2 boys aged 5 and 3 and they loved it too especially when the cows were looking over the back wall at us in the hot tub! Would 100 recommend and would go back without a doubt, thank you Liz, Reuban,Harvey and Lily for a lovely stay x
Beverley
Our second time here and we will definitely be back. Property and location amazing! Literally everything you may need. Property was immaculate inside and out. You can do as much or as little as you like, with some wonderful walks and stunning scenery and beautiful pubs at the end. Had a lovely day at Trentham Monkey Forest with the family, which was easy to find and not too far. We all enjoyed the hot tub frequently which was well maintained during our stay and so pretty at nightfall with the lights. Lots of added touches that make this holiday cottage the best by far.
Callum
Fabulous cottage, beautiful and tasteful decor and interiors. Very good quality of finish for appliances and furniture. Everything you could possibly need was available washing lineclothes pegs, iron and ironing board, washing podsdishwater tabletswashing up liquid, cling film, tin foil A measure for alcoholcocktails the list goes on. Was not one thing I thought I wish there was???? Clearly a lot of thought, time and money has been invested. It was perfect. Only 2 thing Id change mini clothes drier to a full size one, never enough space with family of 7. Duvet to a summer duvetor just a top sheet we were there during a mini heatwave. The hot tub was the place to be even when it was sweltering in the sunshine. Hot tub checked everyday. Welcome basket was perfect. Throughly recommended the cottage. House was immaculate inside and out. Tranquil setting with beautiful views. Liz was prompt in reply to any text. Fab holiday.
A perfect cottage in a beautiful location spotless and very well equipped. Hop tub is the icing on the cake.
Elizabeth
A beautiful property in a fabulous location. Many thanks for a perfect stay. The milking herd was special to see! Would not hesitate to book again!
Louisa
Everything in the cottage was in excellent condition, the cleanliness and level of equipment was superb Good to be where a hot tub is seen to be being checked and maintained. . The standard of everything was very high, and very well thought through. A lovely cottage and stay, in all respects
Samuel
A beautiful cottage in a beautiful setting. Very well equipped and spotless . Would recommend small lane cottage to anyone especially if you like peace and tranquillity. Hopefully we will be back one day .
We had a great stay at Small Lane Cottage. The cottage is absolutely stunning both inside and out, and a lot of thought and time has gone into making it so perfect. Everything you need is within the cottage. The cottage has the highest end appliances, which are easy to use, and very accessible. Loved the addition of random books and games within, and the games room was a real touch. Liz and Reuben, and even their children are so welcoming and kind. We met Liz on the day of arrival and she was so friendly and warming. Liz and Reuben were kind enough to invite us over to their farm their cows are very welcoming neighbours and a real delightful to have at the end of the garden whilst at the farm, we got to see the new additions of the farm, and the milking process. Very good. Would absolutely recommend this cottage for both the quality of the cottage, and how friendly Liz and her family are. The area is very nice and peaceful, occasional moo'ing, which is just wonderful. Supermarket within a 10 minute drive, plenty of local walks nearby, and pubs within a short driving distance. I hope to return to this cottage in the near future. Thank you again, Liz and family!
What an amazing week we've had with the family at small cottage The weather was fantastic and the cottage is beautifully furnished to a high standard, with everything you could need in the kitchen. Comfy beds and high quality bathrooms. Stunning views across the hills towards the Roaches which can be enjoyed from the garden and hot tub. And for those with a competitive nature you can enjoy snooker, pool, table tenis, darts in the games room. We enjoyed Alton towers, The Roaches, Luds Church Three shires head, Shutlingsloe all within easy reach of the cottage. I would highly recommend.
What a beautiful cottage. High quality decor and very well maintained. Comfy bed and everywhere was spotlessly clean. Lovely welcome basket which was an unexpected surprise. Fab games room which was great fun! Would 100 recommend this beautiful cottage.
