Lavender Cottage Reviews

Debbie

Stayed at Byways last year with a bigger party but Lavendar Cottage didn't disappoint. Welcome pack last year included sausage and bacon which was so good we purchased some to bring home. No bacon this year which if you are showcasing your produce is a little short sighted, as you now can purchase direct from the butchery. We placed an order with John who was really helpful and collection easily arranged, it is exceptionally good produce. Noble Isle toiletries were a nice touch. Plenty of good walks locally for the dog. Always enjoy the hot tub, its relaxing after a nice long walk. Would definitely recommmend and we will be back again.

Angela

We had a fantastic stay at Lavender Cottage. It is extremely clean and comfortable and in an ideal spot to enjoy the Malvern Hills and surrounding area. The hot tub was a bonus. Thank you for the welcome pack too. We had a small issue with one of the showers. The response was quick and friendly and the issue dealt with promptly. I would definitely stay here again and would recommend it to friends and family. I hope we can return soon.

Nicola

Beautiful cottage, clean and inviting. Lovely grounds, It had everything we needed for our stay. Welcome pack a lovely touch, and clear communication throughout our stay. Very responsive hosts. We loved our stay.

Lavender Cottage was a perfect place to stay for a week for our family of 6 adults and 3 babies under 9 months. We would highly recommend it. The location was also great and we made the most of visiting different places near and far. Sadly the hot tub was not fully working with bubbles but it was still warm and we used it nevertheless. We would definitely choose it again.

WOW... Absoluty stunning! The cottage is beautifully decorated, lots of thought has been given to each room. Bedrooms are spacious, we had the best night's sleep all week, it's just so peaceful and quiet. Lots of space to relax downstairs and everything you could need is provided in the kitchen. The garden is a fantastic size, which our 2 dogs took full advantage off. The hot tub is a great to relax in after a long walk up the beautiful Malvern hills. Such a peaceful stay, feels like you are in the middle of nowhere but everything you need pubs, shops are not far away. The welcome pack was amazing! Again very thoughtful of the owners. We did not want to leave and would love to stay again. Highly recommend.

We had a fabulous time at your beautiful property and would highly recommend it to family and friends. The facilities were spot on and we enjoyed every element on offer. Internally, the property was very tastefully furnished with attention to detail. We also enjoyed the garden and hot tub though we did have some niggles with the hot tub they were addressed promptly. The property was very well located and we found there was plenty to do in the area. Thanks for everything including the fabulous welcome hamper.

We just spent a week at Lavender cottage and we were not disappointed. The place was very spacious and equipped with everything you need. The beds were very comfortable and there was plenty of hanging space for your clothes, full length mirrors and power points where you need them when drying your hair. The garden was a nice sunny space with plenty of seating dotted around and was a good secure area for our dog. The welcome pack of milk, bread, jams cookies and coffee was a nice touch we were very thankful for. We really did enjoy our stay and would consider booking again as a week wasn't long enough to explore the area.

Delightful cottage, very quiet, good combination of old and new features, could not get the hot tub to light properly which was a bit disappointing but otherwise everything was very good, one negative point we had was that the house instructions we were sent were for Byeways, so we had the wrong key code .

We thoroughly enjoyed our visit everyone was fantastic to work with! We had lots of questions in advance as we were traveling from the USA. The cottage was just perfect!!! Thank you again for the hospitality!

Louise

A very comfortable stay at Lavender Cottage and we will definitely be back. Lovely spacious rooms and comfortable beds. Garden was a joylarge, well kept and very well enclosed for dogs and children. Kitchen well equipped. The hot tub does take longer to heat up than the instructions suggest so bear that in mind. A lovely stay which will be our go to option when we next stay in the area.
