Lockmans Cottage Reviews

Stephen
Excellent. We had such a restful stay in Lockmans Cottage. The location is peaceful, view delightful and furnishings tasteful. We tried some of the restaurants highlighted in the information pack and they were first rate. Thank you for the suggestions. Booked our return before we left.
A really cosy cottage in a beautiful location. We had a lovely time, and many thanks to the owners who made us feel very welcome
Wonderful cottage. Very peaceful. Next to the canal, muddy at this time of year. Made to feel very welcome with a bottle of proseco waiting for us when we arrived and dog biscuits for our dog. Beautiful cosy cottage. Very well stocked. Would definately stay here again
Jeffrey
We had an excellent relaxing few days at this lovely quite cottage only wish we could have stayed longer.
Set in a beautiful location, idea for nature walks along the Montgomery Canal. It's tranquil and a lovey place to stay if you want to recharge your energy. Pets are allowed. The cottage is very clean and bright, a lovely little place to relax, we really enjoyed it and hope to return next year. It's easy to find and if you need to get out there are plenty of places to visit close by, we loved Powys Castle! Close to Oswestry and Welshpool too. We highly recommend this cottage. I just forgot to bring a hairdryer and couldn't find one at the property. There is a washing machine, but you'd have to bring a portable washing line but apart from that it'd perfect, comfortable beds, it smells nice and fresh, everything feels new, cosy and warm in the evening and the shower is nice and hot. We even found a nice bottle of Prosecco to welcome us in the fridge!! The host is very friendly on the telephone, thanks for letting us stay x
