Reviews
Even though the government has closed down holiday lets we still managed to have a visit from the Tourist Board for our inspection.
We are delighted to announce we have retained our 4 STAR GOLD AWARD FOR THE THIRD YEAR RUNNING!!
Huge thanks to my family and to Lizzie from Shine Bright Cleaning for joining us to bolster our team and keep the cottage gleaming.
... Also thanks to Matt Metcalfe Gardening for keeping the outside areas tidy and mown as well as sorting out the fencing :)
Never fear, after the ban is lifted we will be back providing wonderful holidays for our guests yet again but for now we will be doing minor repairs and servicing of items ready to start again :)

A frosty morning here at Bells Holiday Cottage! It is toasty warm inside though as we prepare for our next guests to arrive 😊

A beautiful day here in the Test Valley so we have been taking advantage of it by freshening up the fence and gates after Matt the gardener has worked his Friday mower magic!
In between hand overs and found some time to finish reupholstering the dining chairs! A new pretty butterfly material for this season 🙂

Delighted to recommend the lovely Georgia at Hill Farm Hounds for dog walking and boarding. They are based close to Bells Holiday Cottage and are the people I choose to help with my dog walking duties! https://m.facebook.com/hillfarmhounds/?__ tn__=C-R
Had our annual review with the lovely Claire from Holidaycottages.co.uk They are really pleased with all the hard work that we have put in over the year and our reviews have been really fantastic. We listen to our customer feedback and take it very personally and very seriously so a new set of photographs have been taken to update their site and I will be refreshing our website as well. All photos on facebook are super up to date though so this is where it happens first! ...We have also added to our equipment within the cottage including a new extra light in the master bedroom and a branded apron for those of you who like to cook and bake! (this is a prototype and more will be on order soon) I also now have found great new people for those who wish to have the following available locally whilst staying with us: Dog walking/day boarding Beauty treatments We will be posting these up soon and their details will be available during your stay. I would not recommend anyone I dont use myself on a regular basis!

So we have snow at Bells Holiday Cottage so before it thaws I thought I’d take some photos! We have had a deer walk right down the side of the house and all through the garden too 🐾
Good news - from next week we will have an improved broadband service as our rural area has now got an upgraded fibre line. Bells Holiday Cottage has signed up for this service to enhance our guests experience 👏🏽👏🏽👏🏽
I’m a few weeks late in taking pictures but we have our new sofa in Bells Holiday Cottage! We have also rearranged the lounge to make extra space to snuggle in front of the log fire 🔥 We also have a brand new fridge freezer for keeping all your yummy food and treats cool 👏🏽 Looking forward to decorating for Christmas 2018 and welcoming all of our guests who have booked their holidays and breaks with us.
