This little jewel set in the South Downs countryside offers everything you need and more from a self-catering holiday let. We were made to feel really welcome by Rebecca the owner. The accomodation was spotlessly clean and comfortable. The welcome pack was the best I have ever been offered when staying away from home. I would recommend this rental to my friends and family and am already looking to book next year. |

We have stayed in Wrens Cottage twice. It is the best self-catering accommodation we have found. The owner, Rebecca, is so friendly and has provided everything you would need for a stay in beautiful countryside near Petersfield, Hampshire. We were made to feel very much at home and a welcome food pack was provided which was greatly appreciated. The accommodation is located a short distance from the South Downs Way. It's also possible to drive easily to several towns, for example, Chichester, Portsmouth and Midhurst. We have no hesitation in recommending Wrens Cottage to everybody. We have already booked up for 2012! |
