It is the absolute perfect location for somebody who is looking for a quite stay in a charming surrounding. The house is equipped with everything one need for a self-catering stay. It is possible to have fabulous days which begin with a breakfast on the terrace and the near by brook gives one a feeling of pure harmony. Bath and the Cotswolds are a beauty by its own and close by. The cottage is in middle of a walking area and a nice pub is also in close walking distance to fade away the day by a pint of a good ale or a glass of wine. Best marks for our holiday which was unfortunately to short.

Hello there very please you had a good time. I note you liked the outdoors and adventure. There is such a lot to do there...from Hawk Walks with the neighbour to cycling along the Colliers Way, Sustrans 24, numerous country walks from the door...you obviously enjoyed it all.
Do come back, please Ann at Tucking Mill

“Lovely winter stay”
Reviewed November 15, 2012 for a stay in November 2012

We were very pleased with the Fisherman's Retreat cottage for a couple of nights away for my birthday. The cottage was located in a very quaint area with a garden that would undoubtebly be beautiful in the summer (it was still lovely in autumn too!).

The cottage itself was small but perfectly formed with a wood burning fire and very comfortable bed. We travelled into Bath for some Christmas shopping and relaxing coffees which was only around a 10 minute drive away.

We went on one of Ann's recommended walks around the cottage's surrounding countryside which was lovely and refreshing. We also visited the Hope and Anchor pub on recommendation for an evening meal which was great 'pub grub'.

Overall we would definitely recommend for others to visit this countryside retreat.
