Peaceful getaway

bjw1422009 Chipping Norton
Review Submitted: March 3, 2009 Date of Stay: February 2009
The cottage was clean and well presented. It is in a quiet street a short walk from the Thames. The bedrooms are a good size and have plenty of storage. The kitchen is small but had all the equipment and white goods we required during our stay. The ground floor bathroom has a good shower which is situated over a nice large bath.The garden is well maintained and is safe for children. The owners at all times were friendly and very helpful. We used the house as a centre for visits to London. It took approximately a hour to get to Leicester Square starting with a short walk to the nearest station at St Margarets. At the end of the road you can get buses to Richmond and Twickenham every 5-10 minutes. There are numerous places of interest virtually on your doorstep. We visited Hampton Court Palace, Kew Gardens and had lovely walks along the Thames to both Twickenham and Richmond. Richmond has many shops including a post office and many restaurants and is about 15 minutes away on the bus. You can also take the underground at Richmond station. The only quibble we had was a lack of a sizeable welcome pack. There were no details regarding local places of interest or local amentities. We would suggest a visitors book so guests can leave reviews of places such as restaurants etc. However the cottage was perfect for us and we had a great relaxing breaki. Many thanks to Val and Freddy.
