Our stay at the cottage was perfect for celebrating an 80th birthday - the cottage was spacious enough to accomodate some extra guests for a night or two, and also perfect when it was just the two of us.
A wonderful quiet location just outside Bradford on Avon, and lots to do within easy reach.
An excellent place to stay. Everything is comfortable and the surroundings are peaceful. There were 2 adults visiting from Australia for a week with a visit from an adult and a 14 year old overnight, and a 93 year old for a couple of nights during the stay - perfect for all the age ranges. The fresh eggs available from the chickens and ducks were a lovely bonus. I'd go again.
4 of us stayed at Granby Cottage over the weekend. The location and setting was beautiful, the cottage was inviting, warm and cosy. If we required help the Host would have been easily available, however everything was in place.. We thoroughly recommend staying there.
Such a beautifully appointed cottage in the grounds of an amazing country manor.So close to Bradford on Avon, literally 3 minutes to the local pub by car, we timed it! About 20 minutes to Bath, traffic pending. Cottage is spacious and homely too. Decorated with taste; high end furniture, bedding, crockery etc. Lots of doggy goodies available too which was nice.Whilst our stay was excellent and we would love to return and recommend, we did have a few issues with the tv on the first day. Managed to get Prime on the 2nd day so that was ok. When we returned after dark it was a dark walk through the gate/door to the front door. Perhaps a low level solar light might help.Neither point had a detrimental impact on our stay. Oh, fresh bread, butter and milk was much appreciated.
Absolutely beautifully appointed property, gorgeous decor and the comfiest beds in the south! The gardens were a stunning backdrop for a catch up over dinner and wine with old friends. The sitting room was especially cosy with a comfy sofa and open fire. Easy to find but hard to leave, I'm sure we'll be back! Thank you Amanda, we loved your property!
We really enjoyed our stay at Granby cottage. The grounds were beautiful and it was lovely exploring the gardens. Location was very convenient and hosts super nice. The cottage did not have a washer and dry so my only recommendation would be to plan clothing accordingly.
Hier gibt es nicht viel sagen, Cottage gemütlich, sauber, Betten gut, Vermieter mit auf dem Grundstück der sich sehr zurückhält solange es keine Fragen gibt, bei Fragen ist er hilfsbereit und gibt gerne Auskunft.
We loved our stay at this beautiful cottage and wished we could have stayed longer. Generously appointed, our favourite bit was sitting in the garden with a coffee. Thank you Amanda and James for a fabulous stay, we look forward to coming back soon!
We thoroughly enjoyed staying at the cottage to the point we wished we could have stayed longer. Enjoyed the outdoors environment as well as the peace and quite provided by the area. The cottage was spacious for our family of five and enjoyed all the comforts of home. We will definitely consider the cottage again on our next trip to the UK.
From top to bottom, just all around a super place to stay. Well-managed and up-to-date, Amanda was a wonderful host -- accessible and friendly, welcoming and gracious. Very spacious cottage (the galley kitchen gets a little tight, but manageable), very comfortable. The location is exceptional, quiet and somewhat removed, yet easy access to Bradford-0n-Avon and especially Bath. Easily one of the best places we've stayed!!

Granby cottage
Absolutely blown away the cottage was amazing clean, spacious & so relaxing

Loved the garden & the hens & chickens felt so relaxed & calm being there beautiful.
I have rated everything about this cottage 5star as myself & family had a lovely relaxing time & would recommend it to everyone to stay here as you can't not like it at all
Thank you Amanda
We have utterly enjoyed our stay at this property! Well appointed accommodation in beautiful grounds, very dog friendly (unless chickens are an issue).
We had a lovely time staying at Granby Cottage for my Mum’s 70th birthday. We surprised her with an overnight stay after a birthday meal nearby and she was very wowed! The property was perfect for a family stay, lots of space and a really cosy front room, which was great for eating together, games and relaxing. The kitchen was well equipped too and they left some handy essentials for us which was much appreciated. The only thing we found was the main bedroom was quite cold, we put the heating up for the duration but that far part of the house seemed to stay pretty cool and there was a bit of a bite to the air when we went to bed. Luckily the bed was very comfy and cosy. We also had a little bit of a delay getting the instructions to check in but once we did it was straight forward. Amanda was generally good at trying to accommodate our needs.
What a little gem of a cottage. We had a lovely stay and the Christmas decorations were a real bonus, we were just disappointed we weren't there for long...so we may well be back soon. Thanks so much.
This place is so beautiful - cosy, clean, well stocked - cannot recommend it enough!! The host communication was great and everything was absolutely as described. Will be back for sure!
Two night break on our way to Cornwall, second day weather was fantastic so walked into Bradford on Avon interesting place lots of sightseeing and places to eat. The fields are fantastic for excersing your dog all needs exceeded fun was had by all book early as well used we WILL be back to do more exploring thank you very much regards Kathy, Anthony and Maddie
Had a wonderful short break here. Very dog friendly, (if chickens/ducks aren’t a issue) and very comfortable accommodation. Small but functional kitchen. Lovely sitting/dining room, and beds were really comfy - duvets to die for!
Hosts were very helpful and friendly. Dogs and humans had a great stay.
Lovely house within grounds of main property. You can walk about the grounds and enjoy watching the chickens and many garden birds. Very nice property with plenty of space and everything you could ask for provided. Thank you for having us!

Dogs are very welcome (there is one dog bed) for well behaved furry friends (we do have friendly show spaniels ourselves). There are extra pillows and blankets to snuggle up with in front of a great DVD and a real fire - but the cottage is warmly centrally heated - temperature is controlled by you. Granby Cottage is very private and set within 12 acres of green belt which we own and you are very welcome to walk your dog(s) around the main grounds. There are some great local walks too. The cottage has plenty of off street, private parking. Do email me if I can help with anything.
