Heartwell Cottage Reviews

Claire Forster
5th August 2025
We thoroughly enjoyed our holiday at Heartwell Cottage, plenty of room for us all, lovely surrounding grounds to walk the 2 dogs, the pool, hot tub, sauna all used and enjoyed many times HOWEVER we were disappointed with the showers - all were poor especially the downstairs one. The oven didn’t work properly, neither did the hob, we were going to use it because the barbecue didn’t work. The dishwasher did not work properly either. WiFi was poor. There was no Welcome Pack. If these issues are addressed Heartwell Cottage is a lovely place to stay.

Had a fantastic stay here and the owners were always on hand to help very friendly. Only thing i would suggest is hand wash in all the bathrooms would be helpful as feel in all other self catering accommodations i have had this supplied. Beds were very comfortable and towels were of excellent quality. I will definitely book up for this accommodation again. Swimming pool and area very clean and pool nice and warm
