Arrangements for our arrival were great.
And a huge cake and a Christmas tree started the holiday off well. We made a couple of adjustments to our planned sleeping arrangements because the second double room was really not a double as the bed could only be accessed from one side. Fortunately there were only six of us (and a dog). The description of the bathroom and shower room were accurate, as in there was a shower over the bath but there was no shower curtain and only one of us was short enough to be able to duck under the shower to use it - very carefully... So mornings involved a bit of negotiation over who spent how long in the toilet - and there were only 6 of us. The bathrooms, and maybe some other areas, could do with a little cheering up. The owner had provided additional roasting tins but cooking a Christmas meal, or any meal, for six was really quite a challenge with the very few saucepans and utensils e.g. no blender, mixer, scales... so quite a lot of juggling and improvising were involved! The map was very helpful to locate us in the area but we couldn't find any information about local amenities (shops, doctor, church, pub...) nor could we find any information or instructions about using the Aga, how to stop the water when the washing machine flooded the utility room because of blocked drains, how to check the 'fuses' when we had a power cut, how to use the coffee machine for which coffee had kindly been left, along with tea bags and sugar... The hot tub was well maintained but was very hot (a necessity I understand), especially as it was indoors but that didn't stop at least one of us using it each day. The beds were clean and fresh and comfortable and there were plenty of towels and tea towels for the 6 of us. The enormous leather sofas were great to sink into in front of the TVs but some instructions would have been helpful because us oldies had to wait for 'young' people to arrive to work that out. (Both TV's had Amazon fire sticks.) Everywhere was lovely and warm when we arrived but soon became too hot for us and although we quickly received advice when I sent a text it would have been lovely to have had some written instructions so that we could have adjusted it without bothering anybody. I would have done an even better job of cleaning before I left if there had been instructions on how to empty the vacuum cleaner and stop it smelling so awful. The dog enjoyed playing in the large garden but everywhere was too wet to explore much and it wasn't possible to walk along the road because there were no pavements. However the map and a bit of initiative soon found walks in Cannock Chase and other places very nearby. So there was plenty we loved and we rose to the challenges and had a good stay and a happy Christmas, but it could have been a little more relaxing and a bit less challenging...

This cottage has so much to offer but we left feeling disappointed and having spent up to a day of our holiday dealing with unnecessary problems.
There are two key errors in the listing. Firstly, the checkout time is advertised as being 10am when it is actually a rigid 9am. This would not be a problem for most but we have a disabled son who struggles in the morning so we had to leave the night before. We had this issue hanging over us for most of the week - we raised the issue on the Monday but didn't get a definitive response until the Thursday (and then had to start packing to leave that night). Secondly, there is no washer-dryer (not a problem for us but would be for others). We had to wait in twice for the lovely maintenance man. There were no instructions for the heating and despite our best efforts with Google, we could not get it working on a cold October day. This was easily avoidable. We then had problems with the bathroom door sticking and nearly got locked in so had to call for help again. The toilet roll holder was also falling off and clattering in the night so that required fixing. There was a lack of instructions in the property so we spent quite a while trying to figure out the TV and took a while to master the hob. The instructions for putting the bin out were incorrect so we moved it from the back of the house to the front when it wasn't needed - not a problem for us but might have been for more elderly guests. Again all avoidable things. Much of the cottage is so beautifully furnished and designed but why have a broken clock in the kitchen (we tried changing the batteries), a missing lamp in one of the bedrooms, a door on the bathroom cabinet that needed tightening up as it was starting to drop and mould on a corner of the bath? As stated above, we spent a lot of time trying to resolve problems. It isn't the way you want to spend your holiday. We have never left a negative review before. There is so much about this cottage that is great -and had circumstances been different, we would have been looking to rebook - but we left feeling let down by a plethora of completely unnecessary issues which detracted from our holiday. (PS - and not part of the review - we did not know how to rate our Sykes experience as we dealt with Manor Cottages)

My Husband and I stayed at this property for a week following lockdown.
The property is a traditional farmhouse full of character and original features but with modern kitchen and bathrooms. It looks very Impressive as you come over the hill on the approach. It stands in its own large garden overlooking open countryside. There are a couple of other properties nearby yet you are not overlooked. The covered hot tub area is ideal; it is decked out allowing easy access to the large well maintained hot tub. It looked exactly as on the pictures and is a nice private area. It allowed us to spend many relaxing hours looking out at the lovely countryside; even had the privilege of seeing the Tawny Owl flying past (what a bonus). The owl box is in the large tree at the side of the hot tub area so you can hear him hooting around 9pm as he prepares to go off hunting. The house is well kitted out, even a few basic food provisions to get you started. Plenty of logs for the two log burners too. Bedding and towels are of good quality with luxury mattress toppers and pillow protectors. Made for a good nights sleep as the bed was very comfortable. We are keen walkers and the surrounding area provided lots of opportunity for easy or strenuous walks. You can even walk from the door. The owners are really lovely people, very friendly and approachable. Their home is fairly close but your privacy is well respected; they are not at all intrusive. We felt they went to great lengths to ensure our stay was enjoyable; nothing was too much trouble (super hosts in fact

We usually have three or four holidays each year in the UK.
Over the years weâve never gone back to the same place twice, preferring to explore different parts of the country on our trips away. Lower Hodre is the only exception to this âruleâ of ours. We first discovered it in 2019 and loved it so much we booked again for 2020. (The first time weâve ever done this.). Unfortunately Covid lockdowns scuppered these plans and that holiday was held over until this year - the week weâve just come back from last Friday. Itâs still the most comfortable, luxurious home and tranquil location we remembered so fondly from our previous visit. Emma, the owner, is still the most superb Host: nothing is too much trouble for her and she really does go the extra mile to ensure her guests have anything and everything they need. In short, Lower Hodre is definitely our most favourite holiday let anywhere in the UK. So much so I shall be ringing you tomorrow (Monday September 13th) to book yet another week at this fabulous place for next year. Weâre hoping to reserve the week from the 9th to the 16th September in 2022. Now you canât get a better recommendation than that, can you?!

Lower Hodre is a beautiful house, much of it historic, with beams and nooks and crannies galore.
Nine adults and one greyhound were very comfortable here for a weekend. The house is beautifully decorated and well appointed with fixtures and fittings. The kitchen is a pleasure to cook in, and the hot tub!!! well that was the icing on the cake. Talking of cake, the complimentary home-made cake - and home-made marmalade, and fresh farm eggs - were greatly appreciated. Our host Emma was friendly and helpful and lives in a house which is near Lower Hodre but not so near as to be intrusive. Two wood-burning stoves would keep the house very cosy in winter and the central heating is effective too, though we didn't need it much and ended up turning all the radiators off. The outdoor seating area was welcome when the sun came out, and the garden is a good size, plenty of room for the dog to run around. Lower Hodre is in a very quiet area with only the occasional car or farm vehicle passing down the lane. There are walks around lanes and footpaths right from the front door, through spectacular countryside with red kites circling overhead, sheep in the fields and rabbits hopping around. It's a really beautiful, peaceful place.
