Lovely cottage in a great location

We enjoyed our week long stay here, the cottage is in a great location a short stroll from the village shop, cafe and pub. The pub was very good with friendly staff and great food and drinks. The variety of walking nearby was endless and our dog loved it all. The cottage owner was very helpful if you needed anything also

A terrific place to stay

We had 5 wonderful nights in Lilly Bee Cottage. It was absolutely fabulous - in fact possibly the best accommodation we have had in the United Kingdom over our years of traveling there from Australia. The place was spotless and beautifully fitted out with quality furniture, linen and accessories. We had everything we needed - and more. Gorgeous back area too and lovely views especially from the bedroom. We also enjoyed many great walks around the area and found Sherston to be a great base to visit Oxford, Bath and other towns. Host was terrific too. Nothing was too much trouble. Highly recommend. We will certainly look to coming back to Lilly Bee Cottage. Many sincere thanks for making our visit to the area so special.

A lovely stay in Lily Bee

We really enjoyed our10 day stay in Lilly Bee cottage with our dog.A lovely cottage,great garden for the dog and the pretty village had everything we needed. Easy to access walks, a shop, pub and a cafe. The cottage is comfortable and well equipped, but not suitable for anyone with mobility issues as the stairs are steep and the principal bedroom has a large step.

Wonderful cottage, would highly recommend

Everything was great. The only constructive feedback I have is for a secure handrail the whole way down the stairs. But other than this it was perfect.

Charming and cosy

We had a perfect stay at Sherston. The cottage is very well equipt; apart from the bed in the master bedroom which we felt being a bit too soft, nothing to complain. Lilly, the owner was very supportive and helpful. A short help message regarding WiFi connectivity had been immediately responded and remotely solved. Thanks for that! In summary: This cottage offers everything you need to spend your holidays!

Stay at Lily Bee Cottage

This was our second time to stay at Lily Bee cottage and we were delighted to be back. The cottage is still as lovely as ever and luckily this time we had great weather so we were able to use the garden, lovely to sit on the patio with a glass of wine in the evening. The cottage is like a home from home and has everything you could want, were sad to leave but hope to return again in the future.

A writing retreat

The property is beautifully decorated and very comfortable, we were also blessed with great weather so we could enjoy the garden. The Rattlebone in was a friendly spot for the odd dinner and Michael’s the butcher in Malmesbury has excellent produce.

Neat and tidy character accomodation, with nice views from the garden.

We enjoyed our stay here. It’s a quiet little town with a good pub and cafe. We did get a bit warm in the upstairs bedroom, so a fan might help.

Wonderful Cotswolds break

Beautiful cottage which immediately felt like home. A Christmas tree was there to greet us and a pint of welcome milk! We could not recommend the cottage and village enough. Fabulous!

Just returned from a stay at Lily bee Cottage. Well positioned comfortable place to stay. Very well equipped and traditionally furnished. Can easily accommodate 3 people. Within easy reach of Cotswolds attractions. Good places to eat out within Sherston. Would certainly make a return visit

Rest & recovery at lovely Lillybee

I had a wonderful fortnight at Lillybee whilst I had radiotherapy in Bristol. The cottage is like home from home and helped me with my treatment. In the ideal location with amazing facilities, coffee shops, pub and shop all within 5 mins walk of the cottage, plus many lovely walks in the area. I also had a wonderful weekend exploring in the middle of treatment and it’s such a beautiful area with so much to do. I can’t recommend this cottage any more highly. Superb.
