Brancepeth Reviews

Had a lovely family birthday weekend here. The cottage is big enough for 6 adults and 2 dogs!. The hot tub was amazing! Only niggle we could find was that there is no Dustpan and brushvacuum cleaner to clean up the crumbs on the tiled flooring. Just a small thing but would have made a big difference to us with having 2 dogs. Otherwise lovely place, would recommend.

Fantastic place, second time we have been and wont be the last, only criticising comment is not aimed at the owners or place itself its aimed at the idiots who have dogs and think everyone else should like them. As a dog lover myself remember that not everyone loves your dogs as much as you do and they are not everyones pets!!!! Dont leave your dogs unattended while you go out for the full day and let your dogs go mental, have some respect for other people.

We really enjoyed our stay here, such a lovely location. There are a few cottages together, the back area where you sit has a lovely hot tub and view. There is a dividing wall between the cottages but you do occasionally see the neighbours but still felt private enough. We were lucky to have beautiful weather so didnt use the pool as much as we thought. The pool and the outdoor hot tub makes it perfect for any weather.

Brilliant place comfortable and cosy will be back
