Fenny Castle Cottage Reviews

Ella
10/10 trip. The cottages are beautifully presented, super comfortable and thoughtfully include board games and all the amenities one could need. We had such an enjoyable weekend, thank you!
Joanna
We have just returned from a 3 night break and were very impressed with all aspects of the 2 cottages. High quality accommodation and furnishings; they had everything. Despite it being a wet December we even used the tennis court briefly after the very welcoming owner mentioned she hadnâ??t seen us use it: cue much hilarity as we chased tennis balls around. The Big Cottage has a very large, open plan kitchen/dining/lounge area with 3 sofas and extra chairs. Every bedroom had access to its own bathroom/toilet which was very handy as there were 7 of us and 4 bathrooms. It was clean with everything you could possibly need. I could go on and on about it but suffice to say we are hoping to go again next year. We have previously stayed in a similar property in Wiltshire and the difference was like night and day. The good thing about there being two cottages is that we went as a family group of 5 with another couple of friends who stayed in the little cottage but came next door for the evenings.
Orlando
Highly recommend this wonderful place! Extremely comfortable and very clean.
Valerie
