We absolutely loved our stay here - it is exactly what you imagine staying in a beautiful English countryside is like. The host was very lovely and has clearly put a lot of effort into the accommodation and the service. The only regret is that we couldn't stay longer, but definitely hoping to come back!

Fantastic property for a short stop over or a longer stay. Our host Samantha was welcoming, friendly and extremely helpful. Breakfast served in the accommodation was a full English, juice, toast and coffee and tea. Could not have asked for more. Short distance from the A1 and a great stop over to break a long journey.
I can’t think of anything we didn’t like.

Everything absolutely stunning property and lovely little luxury touches such as the gorgeous toiletries
Situated across the road from a very nice pub that serves great meals
Breakfast was delicious
Loved the benefits of a cooked breakfast all served by our wonderful host but in the privacy of our own mini cottage
Nothing everything qas perfect.... a little fridge would have been nice to keep our drinks cool but its only a minor point as we had taken a coolbag anyway

Lovely cozy annex cottage in a pretty village with great pub opposite. beautiful decor and very friendly and accommodating host. Definitely recommend. Pub food is great.
Nothing to do with property but the pub is only open from Wednesday so if you are staying all week, it’s a bit annoying to get an evening meal.

Wonderful host. Gorgeous breakfast, which was made specifically to my dietary needs and allergy requirements.
Really peaceful spot, but with a lovely country pub just across the lane.

Fabulous little place for a getaway! Cosy, clean, peaceful, everything you need and in Samantha, a fantastic host! She brought us an amzing breakfast of choice, with everything fresh. Lovely facilities inside the cottage, which is detached from the main house, and so quiet! Laxton is a beautiful village and the pub across the road, The Dovecote, serves excellent fare and is warm and friendly. Super and highly recommended!

This place is a DREAM, the host is incredibly warm and couldn't do enough, even lending me her HDMI cable so I could game on the TV. I'm not spoiling the delights of this place but trust me it's worth the money and then some. I will definitely stay here again in a heart beat.

The host was such a warm, friendly lady who couldn't do enough to make sure we had a comfortable stay and catered to our dietary requirements by going above and beyond.
The little cottage was in a rose garden which was beautiful. We had our full English breakfast on the patio outside the following morning and the whole experience was amazing. The breakfast itself was exceptional!
The bed was very comfortable. The shower was absolutely amazing! The siting room was very comfortable.
Lovely little hidden gem in a quaint little village.
Highly recommended.

We enjoyed an overnight stay at the Goat House, which is a separate building behind Ivy Cottage. Host Samantha was very friendly and explained everything to us upon arrival. Very nice evening meal in the Dovecote Inn across the road, which we had pre-booked. A delicious cooked breakfast was delivered to us in the Goat House in the morning.
Liked everything.

location superb. Breakfast bespoke. Attention to detail in the accommodation and a friendly and warm reception.
A larger bed perhaps but the space might have been the issue.
