Had a lovely stay. Cottage was very cosy and well equipped. Could do with updating but perhaps that’s part of its charm.

Suited us perfectly
My wife and I, plus our adult son stayed in the cottage and would happily recommend to others. Our son needs wheelchair access and the accommodation was perfect for him.

A week in Warwickshire
We enjoyed our week in an Ireland’s Farm cottage. Stephanie the owner welcomed us and made us feel at home. The cottage was well equipped, and in a lovely part of rural Warwickshire.

Peaceful and Welcoming (Lily Cottage)
As a family of two adults and three children, we stayed at Irelands Farm Cottages in Lily Cottage for a long weekend whilst attending a wedding. We loved our time in the cottage and had a relaxing few days away. The cottage is homely and welcoming and Stephanie is an incredibly friendly and accommodating host, quick to sort any issues. We stayed as a family, including three under 5s. There was provision of a high chair and travel cot but just to note the cottage isn’t kitted out for children. Our children were somewhat restless and the cottage would benefit from having just a couple of books and games added for entertainment, whether on rainy days or in the mornings/evenings. The only downside of our stay was that the mattress in the double bedroom was incredibly uncomfortable. We stayed in Lily cottage as it’s kitted out for those with mobility issues, which was fantastic for the bathroom (a difficult find with holiday cottages!) but the mattress caused the chronic pain in my back to flare up badly and my husband too complained of a bad back after a couple of nights. Apart from that little negative, we had a wonderful time and loved our stay, thank you!
