What our customers say about their holidays

  We absolutely loved this cottage. The location was amazing - remote, so you felt you were properly in the countryside, but only 2 mins drive away from more major roads which then got us easily to every location in the Peak District. The location was one of the very best we’ve had in the UK. The property was absolutely amazing. It had lots of equipment you don’t normally find in properties like tons of toilet rolls and kitchen roll, bin bags & washing up liquid. Even kitchen foil! The kitchen was lovely to cook in and had everything you might need. There was also an insulated cafetière which came in handy, and an ice cube tray in the freezer. We loved the log burning fire in the lounge and the tv had access to Netflix and BBC iplayer which we appreciated. We had many happy evenings snuggled up watching TV. There was also a sun room which was lovely to sit and relax (we were pretty lucky with the weather). The children loved the table tennis in the games room, and there was plenty of room several cars on the driveway. The showers had great water pressure and all the bathrooms were to a very high standard. The beds were large and comfortable and the cottage was very spacious. There were plenty of amazing pubs serving wonderful food in nearby towns and villages. We would definitely come back again.

  If your looking for a home from home then this is the place to be.

  We stayed for 5 nights at the little pound cottage, Pete and Donna who restored the cottage done an amazing job, with little touches of antiques around the cottage to the beautiful log fire, it really has been beautifully put together by them both. The cottage is located perfectly for visiting Ludlow, Leominster, Tenbury Wells, Bewdley etc. The cottage was spotless and they even left a bottle of wine for us to enjoy. The hosts Pete and Donna were so welcoming and we look forward to seeing them again as well as visiting the cottage. We have already told all our friends and family about the cottage and they plan to visit in the near future. The little pound cottage is truly beautiful and at the end of each day myself and my partner couldn’t wait to go back to it each day from our outings. We can honestly say we already feel like we have built a second home in this cottage and cannot wait to return! Thank you Pete and Donna for putting together a stunning cottage and making us feel ever so welcome

  We had a lovely stay at Little Pound House.

  The cottage is very compact but beautifully done and has a very comfy king sized bed. Owners Pete and Donna are very friendly and are happy for you to use their beautiful garden with stunning views over the surrounding countryside. The area is unspoilt and we enjoyed Bewdley (make sure you visit the museum with kitchen garden cafe) and exploring into Herefordshire. This cottage is attached to the owner’s home and there is only a (locked) door between your living room and their kitchen but this didn’t bother us. We’d love to come back if we’re ever in the area again. Thanks for having us and we will be happy to add your cottage to our website www.romanticretreats.co.uk :-)

  The main picture is of the owners house, the cottage is the small window to the left & round the other side.

  It has been tastefully fitted out & is comfortable for a few days away. There should be a few things mentioned in the description of the property. The steps are steep & narrow & also the ceilings are quite low. My husband is over 6 foot & kept banging his head. Love the bath, but it too is only small, ok for me but not husband. In today's climate there should be a dishwasher (a small one would fit) in the kitchen, which would give peace of mind that pots have been washed on a high temperature. The weather was very hot, so the bed would have been better with a thin duvet on, or just a top sheet. The owners were very friendly & the property was very clean

  A lovely little cottage, as described in the overview.

  It is very compact, with an 'old world' rustic feel - but clean and very well looked after. It is perfect for a couple looking to explore this part of the country. The old stair case is quite steep, so perhaps not for those with any serious mobility issues - but otherwise it is delightful. The owners, Peter and Donna, are friendly and very welcoming. Mamble is so tranquil; sitting at the table outside, you have a lovely view for miles into the distance and you are lucky to hear a single car, or indeed person, for hours on end. As we discovered, this part of the country is extremely beautful with some breathtaking scenery. Would recommend it.
