Avonmede Reviews

Absolutely beautiful! The cottage was so lovely and so cosy. It is all really well put together. The kitchen had everything we needed. The welcome basket was such a wonderful touch. The history of the cottage was really interesting too. The hot tub was an awesome bonus, so relaxing. We really enjoyed exploring Tewkesbury, it is a beautiful place. Would highly recommend this cottage for a beautiful, cosy and relaxing getaway!
Michelle
We had such a wonderful stay here, truly a little gem! Beautiful little cottage,and we loved the welcome pack we received.Bobby our dog enjoyed his too! We enjoyed the back garden and it was beautiful in the early morning, sat outside having breakfast on the decking.We had such a wonderful special stay here.Thank you so much for making such a beautiful place to stay!
An excellent find! Lovely cottage, very well appointed and a really comfortable bed. I did have reservations about the proximity of the main road but they were unfounded, traffic noise was not an issue. The pub opposite was a popular spot and we ate there during our stay. Very handy for the High Street and the attractions that can be found along its length. Loved the hot tub and the privacy on the terraced garden which is a delightful space to sit, relax, and watch satellites and shooting stars passing overhead while drinking a glass of wine.
Joanne
Avonmede provided a warm and comfortable stay. The cottage is spotlessly clean with everything we needed. We had a welcome pack on arrival of essentials so we had breakfast the next morning. Very welcome thank you. Avonmeade is full of charm and character of a cottage. It is well situated so access to shops, restaurants, pubs a short walk away. Thank you x
Lovely cottage and your description was accurate. Need to advise about ceiling height and small internal steps but that is nature of listed cottage. The stairs were very steep so left luggage downstairs, so not a problem. My little dog enjoyed some of your treats too so thank you. Bed linen super, I am going to research the brand. Thank you
The cottage was really well renovated in keeping with the traditional style and looked after with great detail. Cleaned thoroughly and furniture was well invested into. Everything was comfy and cosy. The hottub was great and plenty of amenities. Friendly customer service from the hosts aswell. Really recommend.

Just back from a 2 night break at Avonmede. We had a lovely time the cottage was very cute and cozy, well equipped with everything we needed for our short stay. The owners had left a welcome basket with butter, jam, marmalade, biscuits, bread and even a bottle of wine for us and provided a dog bed, biscuits and blanket for our pooch, which were all thoughtful touches. We thought it was funny that the dog bed was really for a much smaller dog than our German Shepherd but she tried to get into it nonetheless! The property is well positioned to easily walk around the town and down along side the river and is within easy reach of several pubs one right opposite, which was very handy and dog friendly too. The hot tub is an added bonus, and it was lovely to relax in it after our long day out walking. I will be recommending to my friends and family with dogs most excellent.
Beautiful cottage in an excellent location. Lots of dog walks close by and just at the end of the high street. We loved everything about the cottage recently done to a very high standard. We parked close by in Oldbury Road car park for just 4 per day which you can do on Ringo app. Much appreciated welcome basket and lovely thought of dog bed, towel, treats. Would love to stay again.
Richard
Excellent cottage lovely hot tub. Parked on bridge as recommended by owners and had car scratches from front to back.
