A really very nice apartment, very cosy, all the facilities you need, and the owner had arrange a good array of food items ready for our stay, enough that we didn't have to rush to the shop. The owner, Jane, is a lovely lady who couldn't do enough for us. It is conveniently situated a short walk from the local public house and a couple of restaurants. Stratford itself is only a short drive as are other attractions in the area.

The only thing I could say was a problem, it is only a minor problem, is that there is a beam running across the room upstairs which I smacked my head on twice

We were met by the owner, who was lovely. She told us useful information about the area and places to visit. She had left some fruit, milk and a few basic essentials, including some delicious marmalade. We enjoyed playing some of the records on the record player. The shower was large and good.

For us, the pillows were very hard and consequently sleep was poor. The cooking area was dark and we couldn't find a chopping board to prep food. We couldn't find a plug/bowl to wash up in the sink, although there was a dishwasher, it was a bit large for a few items. We really missed a microwave oven. The property was dusty and there were extensive cobwebs everywhere and spiders. The sofa was stained in several places, and was dirty in between the cushions. The windows were very dirty. We didn't really enjoy our stay and couldn't recommend it, as it felt a bit grubby. If it was cleaned thoroughly throughout , it would make a huge difference. The bathroom and toilet were clean, thankfully.

The little barn is very cosy and we had a lovely relaxing stay despite experiencing some awful weather. Jane, our host was very welcoming and kind and helpful - giving us some excellent advice with regards local restaurants (literally just a five minute walk away) and interesting places to visit in the area. She also very kindly lent us a super large umbrella which was fab!

We had to remember to be careful of the low beam in the living room - a case of 'Duck or Grouse' ;)

It’s a perfect place to stay. Unfortunately we couldn’t extend our stay because the cottage was booked. Everything was there for a lovely peaceful time. Owners are so helpful, nothing was too much trouble.

There was nothing we didn’t love.

the cosiness! it was so quiet away from the hustle and bustle of Stratford Upon Avon. it’s a 20 minute walk into town but in Tiddington Village there’s a supermarket, pub and other eating places.

maybe better lighting in the kitchen and instructions on how to operate the shower
