Tranquil.

Peace of mind was what I experienced. I wish I could stay at Comfrey Cottage Collection for a longer time! The cleanliness and tranquility are amazing. But I wouldn't mind an electric gate, especially when it rains. It's just too much work.

Comfrey Cottage Collection - Excellent

We really enjoyed our stay at Comfrey Cottage. What we appreciated most in these times was that the owners take Covid-19 very seriously. They wear masks, sanitize hands and maintain appropriate social distancing whilst being friendly and helpful. This was certainly not the case with some other places we stayed during our recent road trip. Comfrey is established, lovely and a great place to stay in Lady Grey. Highly recommended

Disappointed.

We find it very hard to believe that the room has a 4-star grading. Old and dated and needs attention - walls has cracks everywhere. Also the linen is threadbare and the bed was not a queen size as advertised. Kitchenette disappointing. Fridge was not cold and no basin.

Comfrey Cottage Collection 's response

Dear Ilze,

Sorry that your stay with us didn't meet your expectation.
Unfortunately, the walls of these old buildings do crack, especially during this drought, and their maintenance is an ongoing challenge. Thank you for drawing our attention to the linen problem, new linen has been ordered to replace the few substandard pieces.
The bed in that room is definitely a queen size bed. That room doesn't have full self-catering facilities, it is advertised as having a fridge and microwave, we do have a self-catering cottage with a full kitchen.

Thank you for your comments.
Regards,
Grant.
