The Pump House is set in beautiful surroundings, it was lovely and clean with everything you needed. Great space for a large group. The village is lovely and Clare was super helpful and great for local information, I would definitely recommend.

Ideally suitable for large or multi generational family. Very well equipped kitchen with plenty of crockery, cutlery and cooking equipment. Large child friendly garden with some equipment and bikes available. Unusual layout with one very small shower room. Lovely village with two pubs, shop and post office and large childrens playground. Within easy reach of lots of interesting places with plenty of walking routes from the cottage.

We had a great stay at the Pump House. The web site photos undersell the property, which is in a lovely location tucked away in the village of Hawkesbury Upton. There’s plenty of space, inside and out, including a large communal kitchen diner to gather in. Great countryside walks all around, and communication with the owner was excellent. Thoroughly recommended.
