We had an amazing stay at Lucknow Cottage. Everyday we walked up the Rodborough Common. The view was incredible looking out to the Bristol Channel and the green valley below with cows in tow! A great location with comfortable beds and quiet neighbourhood. There was a soccer field just down the road with a small playground for young children. The Prince Albert pub at the end of the street was a great music venue.

Cottage is in a lovely location and beautifully decorated however some things could be improved:

Shower water pressure poor - could have it hot and barely flowing or cold and decent pressure, not both.

No washing up liquid, hand soap in downstairs loo or milk in fridge despite booking details saying there would be.

Utility area and downstairs loo had no radiators so were very cold.

Mould on the wall/skirting board behind sofa.

Sofa was a bit dirty/stained

Good points:
Comfy beds
Beautiful views
Quiet
Good appliances/well equipped kitchen.
Apart from the sofa the house is very clean.
Housekeeper very helpful when we rang to report electrics had stopped working.

Your valuable feedback has been shared with the property owner and housekeeper.

Nice place for 2 - 4 people

Beautifully decorated property. With very steep stairs and only one bathroom it is suitable for up to four persons. Little touches like a decent clothes rack, some sort of a washing line, instructions on appliances, and adequate tea towels and hand towels would be nice.

Being former Stroud residents, we were keen to return for a short break and Lucknow cottage did not disappoint: Wonderful location and house. Excellent furniture and comfort. We all greatly enjoyed and appreciated the dog friendly touches like the water bowl and dog bags offered. Would strongly recommend. Only small suggestions to offer - a greater number of dishcloths and a drying rack were all we could think of. Would stay again.
