This is just a lovely place to stay! The setting on the village green is stunning and the accommodation is spotlessly clean and very well thought out with tremendous attention to detail. Alan and Jo, the owners of the cottage, live next door to the Studio and are very friendly and really take a lot of trouble to ensure that... More

I stayed at Applehay Studio for one night with my fiancee and it lived up to all expectations. The accommodation is spacious, spotless and very-well-arranged. Alan and Jo are so friendly and welcoming and have thought of everything including good internet access. We would love to come back for a longer stay. More

We stayed at Applehay for a short half term break and had an amazing time. The studio is beautifully presented, spotlessly clean and contains lots of little extras to help you feel at home. We really appreciated the wide range of breakfast goodies, that was replenished daily. Will definitely stay again. More

A really good and relaxing break. The studio is charming and original and well set up. I had fantastic bike rides around the locality - the countryside here is absolutely stunning - and enjoyed Alan & Jo's' warm hospitality. More

The owners were very friendly and it beats a hotel room, its nice to have some space when you are away from home. The food at the pub across the road didn't look very good so we ordered an indian takeaway to... More

They really have thought of everything. Even down to a spare razor in case your man forgets one and providing shower gel. Luxurious towels, warm welcome and a little home from home. More

Lovely cosy accomodation, much more space and privacy than a B&B but not as much as renting a cottage, a perfect in-between. We recevied a warm and friendly welcome from Jo and Alan who gave us some excellent reccomendations for local places to eat; the breakfast provided was substantial enough to provide us with an evening meal when we were...
