Fabulous cottage with stunning views and walks from the doorstep and so much nature. The on site Manager Julia was very helpful with clear communication prior to and on arrival.

We had an amazing time at the cottage. We stayed a week and loved every day. Its super quiet and perfect relaxing escape. The hot tub was lovely, views amazing and lots of lovely walks. Local pub did really good food. Wifi was brilliant. There is only a 3ft fence between the properties so we kept our dog on lead in the garden (our Rottie puppy woulRead mored easily jump it), but the paddock was a massive hit with the dog able to run free safely.

What a little gem of a place to stay. The views are spectacular and we sat in the hot tub each evening overlooking perfection.

What can I say, absolutely stunning, everything you need under 1 roof, they have thought of everything. Dave and Jenny so lovely and Julia too. They have Games, books, hairdryer, washing machine, iron. We took our 3 large dogs, so covered the sofa with throws and managed to wash them. The views are breathtaking. Would definitely go again.
Stephen
The owner and staff were very helpful and friendly. The cottage was perfect for my wife, baby and I. Loads of hot water, the hot tub was plenty warm enough and the location was wonderful. It is quite remote - but if you want seclusion this is the place for you.
Jennifer
Our holiday was excellent and a few areas for comment would be the fantastic outside space for our dogs with freedom to roam where necessary. The hot tub is a wonderful addition and takes the cottage to another level. The barbecue was excellent albeit fairly new. The bathroom was very clean with great facilities provided. The kitchen equipment was Read moresufficient for our needs. Wi-fi is fantastic and probably the best I've encountered when away from home. Hide

The cottage is beautiful with its own enclosed garden, plus there is a field set aside for exercising the dogs which was perfect. Extremely comfortable cottage and lovely hot tub. Great base to drive from to local National trust parks and castles etc. then come back to a supremely peaceful place to rest and relax.

Lovely cosy cottage. Large secure garden. Secure dog field was perfect. Lovely to see deer in the field on arrival. Massive bed. Kitchen well equipped. Scenery amazing.

What a lovely stay! The cottage was clean, comfortable and in an unbelievably peaceful location.

The house is located away from everything and has amazing views, especially from the hot tub! The house is lovely and cozy, wood burner is a treat at night and endless supply of wood is nice and easy. We walked all around the area for a week at the end of Feb and managed to do everything we wanted.

Delightful small but perfectly formed cottage for an away from it all break. Views are amazing, the log burner much appreciated after a walk with the dogs and the hot tub amazing at night! Dogs catered for brilliantly with a secure garden, plenty of walks and designated fields for exercising. Caroline was a fantastic friendly and helpful host.

Once again we had a lovely relaxed time at the barn, we loved the log fire as the weather was not on our side. Such a beautiful place with stunning views & spent NYE in the hot-tub, bliss. Hope to be back again soon

The cottage is situated overlooking a quiet valley in a beautiful location.

A perfect get away. Clean, well equipped cottage with lots of character. Amazing views from the cottage, and so peaceful. It was lovely to relax in the hot tub after enjoying local walks around Beguildy, Knighton and Newtown. Cottage hosts very friendly and helpful. Enclosed garden and paddock perfect for our dog who had his best holiday.
Jill
Fabulous location for getting away from it all.
Caroline
We had the most incredibly relaxed stay Unfortunately we didn't have great weather but the scenery and hot tub more than made up for that. It was great to be provided with bath robes too. Paddy, our dog, had lots of freedom to roam. The bottle of Prosecco was a real treat too, thank you. We enjoyed getting to know the sheep and chicks- they were so friendly! The owners were so friendly and accommodating too! Thank you particularly to Caroline and Jenny. We would love to return someday.
Helen
Tack Cottage was the perfect retreat following our wedding. Peaceful, beautiful location with the most amazing view and garden. Our dog had the time of his life roaming around; as he's reactive, the garden and secure field were absolutely perfect for him and so relaxing for us too. The cottage was cozy and had all of the facilities we needed for ou r weeks stay. Caroline our host was so welcoming and helpful, a really lovely person who made us feel at home straight away. Will definitely be back.
Judith
A lovely cottage in beautiful surroundings. The perfect place for a relaxing break
Sara
Beautiful cottage in the middle of nowhere (although there is an excellent pub within walking distance that does superb food!). Peaceful, quiet, well-equipped - clearly a lot of thought has gone into this cottage, and apart from the rubbish weather we had a lovely time. Hot tub was perfect, even in the rain, and Caroline the property manager was ex cellent. Garden is good but not fully dog-proof, so you need to keep an eye on them. Enclosed dog field is useful, but again not dog-proof.
Ruth
Fabulous gem on top of a hill, with open views over to Beguildy and the valley. Fridge in property and the use of a very large fridge freezer in the pump house. Dressing gowns were a plus along with towels, and a great log burner. Wood available along with charcoal for the bbq. Outdoor seating area, in addition , sun loungers and a large hot tub. B ed was soft and so comfortable. Gate at the bottom of the stairs to stop the dogs was fabulous. Lots of cooking pans and dishes, with corkscrew.
ANGELA
A really lovely stay at this amazing cottage, everything you could ever need. Very comfortable, clean. Stunning location, peaceful, relaxing no noise but for the sheep caring for their babies Great for our 3 dogs, they were all safely fenced in with a lovely big garden , with an adjacent field to use as extra.. We will definitely be back. The perfe ct retreat for a total relaxation experience Great big thank you to Caroline for looking after us Nothing too much trouble at all ­ ­­­­

We had a lovely stay at Tack Cottage! It had everything we needed for a comfortable and enjoyable stay. The hot tub was incredible! The cottage was really clean and facilities were good.
EMILY
Thank you so much to the Tack Cottage team. We were immediately made to feel welcome on arrival and enjoyed being invited to watch the pet sheep being sheered. The cottage itself is beautiful and is set in the most amazing surroundings (I didn't have to move the car whilst we were there as we could walk to the pub). There was everything we needed i ncluding barbecue and games. Our collie loved the enclosed dog field and it was a fantastic opportunity for myself and my teenager to just relax.
Hayley
Perfect location overlooking the rolling hills of Beguildy .The cottage was well equipped for us and our 3 dogs with a field all dog proofed for us to exercise our young Labrador..Caroline was very helpful and very welcoming and nothing was a problem.We had a Tesco delivery for the Friday evening which saved us taking food with us .A trip out to Lu dlow castle followed by lunch at the Lion finished off a perfect week .The hot tub is so relaxing and perfectly positioned.Would we go back ,yes

Everything about it was amazing and so carefully thought out, the garden was secure for the dogs, the hot tub was lovely and private and the field at the back for the dogs was a perfect touch to be able to let them have a nice run!
