"Thank you Tricia & Martin for sharing your cottage. It had everything you need for a baby, saved us bringing a lot of extra bits!  Lots of toys and kitchen bits. Our stay was very lovely,  mattresses very comfortable and warm. Stair gates & doors were very helpful.  Park just down the road is amazing for kids.  Cotswold Farm Park well worth a visit with kids (so much to do, lots inside if it's raining).  Visit to Bourton-on-Water was lovely - great fish and chips.  Great price for a lovely house!"

"The cottage was perfect!  Child-friendly & safe - just what we needed.  The Rattlebone pub is great for drinks, we didn't try the food unfortunately.  Would recommend a trip to Cirencester - beautiful city.  In Tetbury the Blue Zuccini was great.  The park (next to cottage) is perfect for Children & adults alike!  We enjoyed dining alfresco every evening.  We'll definitely be back!"

The W family & grandparents, Northampton
July 2019

"We returned after two years to this lovely cottage and it did not disappoint.  The boules weekend was great fun, although a fan in the master bedroom would still be a great addition as it was pretty warm up there [certainly was hot weather - fans now provided in bedrooms for summer].  That said, we'll be back. See you in two years when we return to visit family in the village again."

Thank you for a wonderful stay!"

The R Family - Cockermouth, Cumbria

"This was a very short notice booking after an Airbnb booking was cancelled.  It coincided with the Sherston Music Festival and the Boules Weekend, so there was so much going on in the village.  The accommodation has been brilliant for us and our two kids 3 & 5.  The toys and books were a brilliant addition and kept our kids so entertained.   It was a pretty warm time so a fan would be good in the Master Bedroom (fan since provided), but all in all a good place to stay and my husband loved the close proximity to the Rattlebone (local pub)."

Thanks!"

The A Family - Wiltshire
October 2016

"We have had a wonderful time spent in the Lantern House, the fire was cosy, we have enjoyed cycling to Malmesbury, Tetbury & Castle Combe.  Also walked to Luckington, very nice pub there but praises go to The Rattlebone in Sherston, excellent food - need to book.  The weather has been kind for us. Need a proper handle for the grill pan [since remedied] & another pyrex dish for microwave would be useful [since remedied].  Information leaflets very useful and the store opposite [village Post Office] friendly service.  We have no hesitation to recommend to others your cottage, but we never return to the same cottage/ area twice.  Nice welcome card, biscuits, milk etc.  PS The Hamptons Deli in Chipping Sodbury is excellent for lunch, coffee etc."

August 2014

"A lovely 4 night stay in Lantern House.  Sherston is peaceful with a fab Post Office for supplies.  The food at The Rattlebone is really good.  Malmesbury & Tetbury are worth a visit, particularly for the butchers.  The house is lovely.  Our 5 month old loved the well stocked nursery!  A word of warning - the staff in Tucks (local farm shop) are less than friendly (sorry to hear about this)."

What can we say, a beautiful warm cosy cottage, suited us so well on our stay in Sherston to celebrate our daughter's wedding.  Thank you so much."

V & G, Worcestershire
August 2014

"Thank you very much for some lovely days here in Sherston - nice house & peaceful town despite some noise from the inn at night (must have been one of the more 'competitive' Pub Boules Matches).  Nice room for all of us, but the smell of gas in the garden was quite annoying (apologies, in hot weather there can be a temporary smell of domestic oil fuel after the tank has been filled).  But lots of things to see around in this area."

The J family - Denmark
July 2014

"A truly brilliant house for a family.  It's not that you'll use everything provided it's that it has been thought of.  Well done Tricia.  We had a great stay in this home from home and we were lucky enough to arrive in time for the annual Boules Day - bonus."

The A family - Highlands
July 2014

"We came for a family wedding and the cottage was very comfortable - a real "home from home".  The location was excellent and there was everything in the cottage that we could have wanted.  The recommendation of a visit to Bourton on the Water as a "free day" was ideal.  Thank you for making our stay so enjoyable - even the weather worked out perfectly for the wedding!"

The R Party - Norfolk

"A lovely stay here in Lantern House. A very cosy home and so well equipped for children.  Lots to see and do.  Lovely National Trust places to visit.  I would like to say that we've had a relaxing holiday, but with terrible twos and william cutting his 1st tooth on Mother's Day it's been interesting!  Lantern House is the best home to come back to after a busy day out, as it's lovely and warm (even in the 'very' early hours of the morning!) and cosy.  We will be back soon! Thank you."

The J, S, T & W family - Shropshire
March 2014

"Lovely cottage, very well equipped for toddlers!  All had a great week, lots of things to do in the surrounding area.  The Post Office has great selection of bread & pastries in the mornings, wine shop a good source of information + wine!  Everyone really friendly in village.  Rattlebone Inn has tasty food, real shame that the fire means is won't be open for a while [Owners' comment: the owners hope to reopen asap, fortunately there's another good pub in the village 'The Carpenter's Arms and others close by in the surrounding villages].  Arboretum well worth a visit if sunny.  Nice pool at Malmesbury with family fun swin.  Bristol close enough for day trips -had fun at the Zoo.  Would definitely recommend to friends, thank you for having us."  

The M family - Cheshire
March 2014

"We've had a wonderful two weeks enjoying everything the area and the Cotswolds has to offer.  The house has everything for a young family, we're now on the hunt for a 'Tracy Island!'.  As like the visitors' comment previous, we also thought the bath water was luke warm.  However, we found if you do open the tap fully and position it in the 7-8 o'clock direction the water is very warm [Owners' comment: apologies, we have further adjusted the Boiler Control Thermostat].  We all really enjoyed the cottage and would definitely re-visit.  Many thanks also to Tricia and Martin for their excellent communication throughout."

A, D, O & R - Edingburgh, Scotland
March 2014

"Thank you for a lovely stay.  Very homely place, ideal location very well stocked with all the kids toys and kitchen utensils etc.  Ideal set up for us with 3 adults and 3 children.  The kids loved the stay and so did we!  We felt the hot water for the bath/ shower was sometimes luke warm only [Owners' comment: apologies, we have adjusted the Boiler Control Thermostat] and the kitchen could do with an extractor fan.  Otherwise perfect.  Thanks very much."

J, R & A - Derbyshire & Scotland
February 2014

"Thank you for a wonderful week in your lovely cottage.  It was so cosy and warm and very homely.  I love Sherston even if it rained all week.  Great Pub and Post Office so good.  Hope to stay with you again and will definitely recommend Lantern House.  Thank you Tricia & Martin.  Till next time!"
