Many happy memories will stay with me always - country villages, gardens, the Thames, marvellous food prepared by Sue, fine weather and the warm hospitality of Sue, Bob, Ellie, Angus, Oscar and their neighbors. I don't want to leave.

Sue and her family have made our first, long looked for, visit to England totally delightful. Our week has been full of the England we wanted to see - the gardens, the quaint villages we have read about in novels, the country markets, the warmth of the people and the ancient sites and buildings rich with history. One word summarises our stay : Superb. Superb hospitality in a superb surrounding with superb meals.

We are so grateful and thankful to our daughter for finding such a gorgeous place, beyond our expectations, a very warm and gracious Sue who is always there to help us and oh! - what delicious food - the best chef I know. We truly and sincerely enjoyed our stay and hope some day we can come back and see you again.

Told you I'd return and here I am. It's hard to believe a whole year has really gone by as Hope Cottage and England are nearly always on my mind. I've enjoyed every single second. Once again your sumptuous meals, your tour leader expertise, your cheery disposition, your hospitality leave nothing more to be desired. You offer it all right here in your little slice of heaven - Hope Cottage, thanks for sharing - till next year.

Thanks to all the residents of Hope Cottage for a wonderful three weeks. We saw great things, places and flowers, had great meals and stupendous shopping. I do so appreciate your 'weather arranging' as two days using our umbrellas in twenty one days was super.

Three weeks has passed so quickly and in such a satisfactory fashion! I so appreciate having the opportunity to share in village life. Thank you for indulging my passion for the Cotswolds and making time for 'photo ops' whenever. I'll always remember the warmth of your family's welcome and the beauty of the setting.
