This is a lovely little studio in a great location. It was a little difficult to find with no instructions but a call to the owner was all that was needed to send us to the right place.
The studio itself is very nice and airy. Very comfortable and mostly clean. Overall all, a great base for being in the surrounding area.

Overall decent stay. The 2 problems I had where shower and bed, the shower keeps on going freezing cold to scolding hot and bed is very fragile feeling and sounding as well as not comfortable to sleep in. It was nice having kitchen though and the room was nice and decent size.
Lovely clean cottage...quiet....well equipped...the owner Sian was a very polite helpful and friendly lady and made us feel very welcome.
Lovely stay....will definitely return
Perfectly quaint little stay with good location and access to other places.
We were unaware that our stay was with a shared kitchen and there was another guest downstairs and he floorboards were very creaky which frustrated the other guest in the building. In addition to this, the bed was not king sized, as advertised.

Small cottage situated convenient for us at the ti
Tight spaces through doors and ceiling impedes in both rooms upstairs. Caught foot on a screw sticking up through carpet, nasty!!
Note there is no washing machine. Also was advertised as a King bed, but was larger but only a Queen size (5ft). Studio was as expected with everything we needed.
It was a nice stay. I had a long term stay that was over 30 days. I had the double room, and i felt like it was cramped due to the ceilings. I had to constantly be stooping over or craining my neck in the room. I wouldn't rebook this room for a stay longer than a week. The owner was great and very nice.

Does anyone stay at Appletrees Cottage?
Booked Appletree Cottage, upon arrival was taken to Rose Cottage with no explanation given.
Rose Cottage a delightful cottage, until you realise it's basically a HMO. The first floor was rented out to a nice couple who lived there full time, our area was a bedroom on the ground floor and to access the "private" shower room you had to leave the bedroom, walk through the communal kitchen into the shower room.
There wasn't any privacy, the set up was very bizarre, the shower room door couldn't be locked and the towels provided......well.....hand towels at best.
We stayed during a warm period, the duvet was a thick winter one, no fan or a/c in the room and the window opened onto the pavement, did I mention, Rose Cottage's neighbour was the village pub!
Not what was booked, described or expected.
The caretaker was very hospitable when we arrived later in the day than expected. The cottage was lovely; however, shower is definitely small. Rooms could be dusted down occasionally... webs on walls and many spiders (3 bites on me). Beds were mostly comfortable. Very quiet location... if you need "white noise" to sleep, bring your own small fan or noise machine. All in all, very happy with this place.
The images on the Hotels.com did not reflect the cottage we were allocated and it was not clear that we would be sharing a kitchen. We had a private bathroom but had to go through the shared kitchen to reach it. So whilst it was clean and comfortable, we were put off by sharing facilities. Check is advertised as 3pm but had messaged and agreed a 5pm arrival. When we arrived at 4h50 the room was not ready and found areas that had been replastered but not painted. The stay was fine and value for money but on another day, I am sure guest experiences would be better. It was all a little confusing as it was not as advertised.
The owner bent over backwards to ensure I was comfortable. My only recommendations would be the wifi isn't the best, and I had to take trash to the base to throw out because there was no where on site. These are simple fixes. I would definitely use again.
