Hawthorn Escape Reviews

Emma Carter
We had a lovely stay at this charming cottage. It's super cosy and had everything we needed, plus a thoughtful welcome pack from the owners. The location is peaceful and perfect for a quiet getaway. Unfortunately, we had to cut our trip short because of family issues, but the cottage was a bit smaller than we expected, especially with our two medium-sized dogs. The garden is lovely with a hot tub, but with our reactive dogs, the open fencing and nearby footpath made it unsuitable for us. Still, a nice spot overall!
Alex Carter
Charming little place, super relaxingand the hot tub's fantastic.
Jamie
Really enjoyed the stay, the cottage was cosy and had a lovely modern bathroom.
Oliver
We arrived and Dean greeted us warmly, giving a quick intro to the hot tub then left us to relax. The cottage is charming and full of character, with thoughtful touches that made our stay special. It's in a peaceful spot, just a short drive to the bustling town. The high standards and little extras really stood out. We'll definitely be recommending this place - it's a lovely getaway! Definitely worth a visit.
James
Lovely cottage in a stunning locationand the welcome gifts were a really nice touch!
Emily Carter
From the moment we arrived, the hosts made us feel really at home with homemade dog treats, bubblyand cake! They're super quick to reply if you have any questions, which was great. The cottage's quirky design is charming, though my tall partner kept hitting his head on the beams-funny! The garden was so peacefuland the hot tub was just what we needed after a day out. Our dog loved lounging on the bench outside and exploring around on her long-lead. We'd definitely come back!
Sam
