Reviews of Owl Cottage

"Stayed for a week, cottage well equipped, although some extra bedding would have came in handy as was very cold and wet but plenty heaters to pop on. Was wet and muddy for dog so summer would probably be better option if we were to rebook, however shower room ideal for washing them down. Our only grumble was the memory foam mattress which we found uncomfortable and didn't make for a good night's sleep. Views are lovely and if you're looking for seclusion and peace look no further. "

"We needed a get away to relax and that's exactly what we did. Totally isolated with nothing overlooking the property. Kept the doors open and let the dogs come and go as they pleased as there is a gate leading to the road and a field for them to roam. Local pub 10 minutes walk away, which was lovely. Hot tub was excellent even though we only used it once. Napton village is lovely with a post office/shop/cafe the centre of the community. Will look at booking again. It's just what was needed."

"The cottage is one bedbroom with a sofa bed upstairs. Whilst it is a lovely place to stay it's worth mentioning that the double bed has a memory foam mattress - which meant that we slept in the sofa bed upstairs so not exactly a relaxing week. The hot tub is so nice but it does make a noise when it gets below it's set temperature which did wake me up at times. The cottage isn't as remote as it appears in the photographs and the main road is at the end of the drive. We have friends who stay here every year who have dogs and they love the fact that the cottage garden is secure for the dogs to run around without escaping."

"This small, beautifully appointed cottage is set amongst fields and is secluded and peaceful. It has a fenced in garden which makes it safe for little dogs and the hot tub is perfect for after a days walking. We saw hare nearby and a Red Kite sat in a tree nearby - both visible from the hot tub. Little touches such as tea and milk and some chocolates on arrival show that the owners really care about your stay. It was cold during the week but the cottage is warm even without lighting the wood burner. Walks along the nearby canal are easy and safe with two pubs on the way. The furthest, The Folly is 50 minutes away and had lovely pub food and a very friendly atmosphere. The Kings Head is a very short walk away and serves proper Gastro Pub food - you need to book it is so popular - but with none of the pretension that tends to be associated with "Gastro". Both pubs are dog friendly."

"This cottage is an amazing little cottage based outside Napton on the Hill. This gives you the feeling of complete privacy whilst only being 5 minutes from a pub/ shop. We had an amazing stay over new year, the view are incredible and the log burner and hot tub are wonderful added bonuses. Watching the fireworks whilst in the hot tub on New Year was an unforgettable experience. The cottage is cosy and is extremely well equipped. We would definitely stay here again!"
