Coolstays Avis 

I'm sorry to tell that Ursa bear Cabin was a huge disappointment to us.
It was supposed to be a birthday treat for my wife, but I found myself apologising to her all the time for my mistake in booking it it.
It was far smaller than the advertising led us to believe, and there were notable health and safety issues involved. The main one being the lack of adequate lighting. We couldn't see to cook, either in outdoor kitchen or the indoor the kitchen and had to select our cooking implements and cutlery by feel. Cooking was was extremely dangerous and I burnt my hand twice.
We were constantly tripping over objects on the floor, which wasn't helped by the fact tat some of the (inadequate) lighting didn't work in the first place.
Also, we weren't impressed by all the dirty skin and fur rugs scattered around the property which were very grimy and we found several insects inhabiting one of them.

There was a very poor selection of cutlery and cups/glasses and no washing up liquid had been provided.
To add insult to injury, when we arrived home today we received a message from the owner complaining about the fact that we hadn't washed the dishes and she wouldn't be refunding our deposit !
We have stayed in numerous other cabins over the years and never had any problems, always being very happy with our stays.
We don't like complaining, but my wife's birthday was ruined and the owner's attitude appalled us.

Love this site and great service

We stayed in Heron for a long weekend for my husband’s 60th birthday. The place is tranquil, beautiful, peaceful, and stunning. There is everything in the pod that you would need and sitting by the lake watching the wildlife, what more could you want. We will definitely be having a return visit

A website that showcases properties beautifully. It’s also possible to make a direct enquiry with any questions before going ahead with the booking .
Very responsive and upmarket properties

We’ve just returned from our stay in Litua. What a wonderful property with fab views, beautiful sunsets and glorious peace & quiet. The house is clean, comfortable and has everything you need to have a luxurious stay. We enjoyed every minute and will return for sure.

Date information on site not correct.

Weekend break to celebrate a special birthday with family. Fabulous stay. Farmer Chris could not have been more friendly or helpful. Very comfortable and memorable for its uniqueness. Good location and plenty of activities on site that we booked and thoroughly enjoyed.

Fantastic house. Everything has been thought of. The property is stunning with lovely views. Would definitely recommend

✨A Perfect Hot Tub Weekend Retreat✨
We had a fantastic stay at this beautiful retreat. From the moment we arrived, we were welcomed with delicious chocolates and locally made fudge from a nearby bakery, which was a lovely personal touch.

The cabin is modern, spotless, and beautifully designed, with everything needed for a comfortable and relaxing stay. The kitchen is well equipped, the dining area is spacious, and the bedroom is cosy, comfortable, and finished to a high standard.

The outdoor space is the real highlight. The private deck and hot tub are surrounded by trees, creating a peaceful setting that's perfect for unwinding after a day exploring or simply enjoying the quiet with a morning coffee.

Every detail has been carefully thought out, and it really shows. The hosts have created a warm, welcoming retreat that's ideal for a relaxing weekend away. We thoroughly enjoyed our stay and would happily return. Highly recommended

We had a wonderful stay. The cabin is so well thought out & we loved the decor. The views are absolutely stunning & despite being 3 miles from Monmouth you feel a million miles away from the world. If you are after peace & quiet this is the place for you. Thank you to the host who responded to my queries really quickly. This is somewhere I would definately return to.

Easy booking process with varied quality accommodation on offer . The website makes it easy to find what you are looking for.

Superb accommodation. Everything thought of. Support from owner and housekeeper is faultless. Location like being in a wildlife documentary. From house - otters, pine marten, white tailed sea eagle, herons, seals, cormaronts, gulls, oystercatchers etc From nearby - red deer, buzzards, golden eagles. Brilliant place. Thanks. Privilege to stay.

Have now used coolstays twice and this is my third booking. Would definitely continue to use it as my first choice as I have found the quality of properties of a higher standard. The booking process is quite easy although have not been able to book the length of stay I wanted initially through coolstays the owner of the property I was interested in had to send a link so I could book the required longer stay. Otherwise would continue to use coolstays for holiday options.

Easy booking process on Coolstays. The description of the property was so accurate. Our host Clare enhanced our stay with helpful tips too. Sitting outside the Pavilion on the patio, sipping coffee or wine , gazing out out over the rolling Cotswold Hills was spiritually uplifting - a perfect place for a break.

All worked well for my booking, but docked 1 star as emails too frequent.

Fantastic location with beautiful views. The facilities were excellent, with a very well stocked kitchen area. The cafetiere and ground coffee were a real treat to find! The standard of the accommodation was very high, really exceeding my expectations. We could have stayed there forever as it was so peaceful

Easy to use website where all the places available look extra special

What a wonderful place to get away from everything!! No sound of traffic, no tv, just pure nature and wildlife. We stayed in the foxglove safari tent and it was stunning. So much bigger than I thought. Had everything we needed. The bed was absolutely heavenly, so comfortable. Dog friendly, Our pooch loved it. Would definitely book to go again. Perfect little bit of serenity

My family had a great stay at Cecelia’s cottage. The cottage is very well appointed, spotlessly clean with beautifully modern bathrooms. The location is excellent, just a few minutes walk into town and to the beach. Communication with the owners was amazing, nothing too much trouble. I thoroughly recommend this cottage to other families looking to stay in this beautiful part of Dorset. Many thanks

Great rental, owner very responsive and accomodating
