Charming Kintbury Cottage

The cottage was ideal, the location suited the area we wanted to explore.

The weather was very hot, even at night, so sleeping was difficult.

A clean and comfortable, well priced property. Very good hosts with good communication.

The property is clean and tidy with pretty much everything you could need but feels slightly outdated in terms of decor and fixtures. As the host does clearly state, the stairs would not be suitable for all.

Quaint village. Easy to find. Great local recommendations. Peaceful and tranquil.

Everything. The town, the Cottage and the kindness of Dorothea.

Nothing, everything was great.

Key collection was easy. Parking was tricky as limited space and a telegraph pole in the middle

I would have liked to have known that the stairs were very steep and narrow with additional steps at the top to this meant it was virtually impossible for me to sleep upstairs. I was fine though as I slept on the sofa bed in the lounge. I think the step into/out of the lounge should have a warning above it as we both fell on this.

Very clean, everything you need including washing machine and a little fireplace, well located for walks along the canals and countryside, train station, pubs etc. Hosts were lovely. Comfy and cozy.

We had a lovely stay at the cottage. Great location for visiting family nearby! Didn’t spend much time there as was our and about a lot but it was well equipped, clean and tidy and a great spot for lots of nice local walks!

The location was excellent for places we wanted to visit. Visited Whipsnade zoo on the way. Then Highclere Castle, Hungerford, Devizes, Avebury and Marlborough. On the way back Windsor Great Park. Had dinner at the village pub on Monday night at the Dundas Arms as the Blue Ball only did meals from the Wednesday. Did have a drink in The Blue Ball and they were very nice. Also had a cuddle from your cat

All very good.

Easy code to get in, close to a super nice pub. The bed upstairs was comfortable. Hosts were very kind, they even brought us a bigger ironing board when we said we were going to a wedding. Please ignore the two photos of the street it won’t let us remove it from the review but they’re from London not the area.

The property isn’t suitable for four ADULTS - I highly recommend not staying with more than 2 adults but could possible work with 2 adults and children. I’d recommend swapping the office room to a bedroom and having a comfier bed or sofa bed in there. There isn’t a wardrobe just a hanging rack in the office so it isn’t great for long term stays. The water pressure overall isn’t good, it was so hard to shower and wash our hair because it wasn’t strong enough and kept going cold and hot. The sofa bed is not good, it isn’t comfortable and the mattress is dirty. The hosts are literally 60cm away from you, they kindly gave us privacy but we personally don’t want to be right next to the owners. You need to be extremely careful on the stairs upstairs as they’re very steep, so it won’t be suitable for older people. We had to keep our parents on the sofa bed unfortunately since they nearly fell down. The towels are also really hard and crunchy so I’d recommend changing those to fresh ones.

Peaceful location to get away from it all. Sunny dry weather meant we spent most of our time reading and walking as lovely walks nearby. Cottage well equipped and we didn't lack anything.
