“Foleys Cottage was even more beautiful than we imagined!”

From the quintessentially English garden to beamed low ceilings, uneven floors and even the antique rocking horse, it was perfect! The owners were really helpful and the cottage was clean and in good condition, with lovely extras like toiletries and a welcome hamper. We would definitely recommend this cottage and will hopefully return ourselves soon

Mr & Mrs Binns and family

“Thank you so very much for the wonderful welcome basket and for allowing us to stay in your little peace of heaven.”

The house is delightful and the gardens are spectacular. Our children really enjoyed the summer house. We visited Stonehenge, Salisbury, The Eden Project, Oxford and Bath. We've toured houses and gardens but I think for all of us our favourite thing about the week has been our country walks around Corton and our quiet evenings in the cottage. Such a special place.

Bresnie-Hoffman family

“We have fallen in love with this cosy cottage, so tastefully decorated with all amenities.”

Very peaceful, the Summerhouse was so special - it and the gardens are quite magical. Loved the Dove Inn and the food at the Ginger Piggery was delicious. The surrounding towns and villages are out of a fairy tale. We visited Bath, Stow on the Wold and Chipping Camden as well as Salisbury and Stonehenge. Spent our last day here at the cottage. Thank you for our Welcome Hamper! Most of all thank you for sharing this very special home with us. We hope to return soon!

“A wonderful stay in an idyllic cottage.”

It's a cottage which typifies rural England at its best! Full of character and charm - the master bedroom leading onto the garden is a superb feature. Thank you for a great stay!

The Lay family

“After watching so many episodes of Escape to the Country it was wonderful to stay in a thatched cottage and experience the beautiful English countryside!”

We had a fantastic week. We loved Cheddar Gorge, Longleat and going on a canal ride in Bath. We had a lovely dinner at the Prince Leopold Inn and got to feed trout in the river! The garden leading out from the bedroom is beautiful. We have had a lovely week in your beautiful cottage. Thank you.

- The Lay family,
The Evans and Clarke families

“Very relaxing stay in a warm, cosy and welcoming cottage.”

Would highly recommend Stonehenge, Bath and Longleat - especially if staying with children. So much to see and do in this lovely area - could do with another week.

Guest's review on TripAdvisor

“This was our first family holiday at Foley's Cottage and we had a wonderful time.”

The cottage itself is charming, with a lovely garden. The rooms are all cosy and comfortable and the kitchen/diner was a natural gathering spot. The location is perfect for exploring Wiltshire and we made day trips to Stonehenge, Longleat, Bath and Avebury. Warminster is close by for shopping (and has a Waitrose). Several nice country pubs are nearby for evening meals. A lovely place to stay - highly recommended!

Enjoyed a lovely meal at The Prince Leopold, Upton Lovell.

“We had nice weather and a very comfortable stay at Foley's Cottage.”

We enjoyed days out to Cheddar Gorge and Longleat. As really stunning cottage in a really beautiful garden, perfect for prosecco and cake on the lawn.

“What a beautiful cottage in a stunning part of the world.”

We had three full days of walking (70km in all). Wow!! Forest, hills, wildlife and beauty all around. Salisbury is a lovely city and the cathedral a must to visit. Thank you.... we will be back!

- Mr and Mrs Baldwin,
Mr & Mrs Dullage

“We have had a lovely holiday in this beautiful cottage.”

There was nothing missing that could have made our stay any better (thank you for the thoughtful goody basket). We visited Cheddar Gorge (beautiful views, well worth the climb), Longleat, The Bratton White Horse (again breath taking views), Poole (lovely finds at the pottery). Thanks again, we have already told our friends!

- Mr & Mrs Dullage,
Mr and Mrs Bradshaw

A memorable nine days! Heart-filled thanks.

Guest's review on TripAdvisor

“We stayed here for a short break in October.”

It was a picturesque location and allowed our family of 6 to spread out, play in the gardens and relax at home for dinner. We could also easily get to Bath and Stonehenge. Special thanks for walking us through the last few meters to the place as we arrived late at night and it was difficult to see the cottage!

The Watts family

“Thank you for a lovely stay in your super cottage.”

We loved the retreat it gave us over the festive period. The walks around here are lovely and relaxing (even with three kids in tow!). We visited Bath which was busy but stunning. We were also given a tip from the lady at The Dove Inn about the Festival of Lights at Longleat - we managed to get a couple of tickets and went on 2 January and the whole thing was amazing. We would love to come back some day.

“We have had a brilliant Christmas at Foley's Cottage - Thank you for arranging the beautiful tree and Father Christmas found us here too!”

Our girls loved it and it was the perfect cosy retreat for our family Christmas. Thank you so much and Happy New Year!

We visited some of the surrounding villages and enjoyed afternoon tea then games in the summer house! Would definitely recommend The Dove Inn for a meal as we enjoyed a wonderful Sunday roast! The cottage was well equipped and very comfortable and along with a stunning garden made the perfect Easter getaway, wish we could have stayed longer!\ Thank you!\

Christifides

“The cottage was charming and nicely located - very peaceful.”

Wonderful gardens. The layout of the rooms worked well. Furniture and fittings were comfortable, attractive and homely. The cottage feels like a home and not simply a holiday let. The kitchen and fittings let the house down a little, hence not awarding the top score.

“The cottage was very well appointed and very comfortable.”

The kitchen was very well equipped.the garden was beautiful and a real pleasure to sit in.....we had amazing weather!

Guest's review on TripAdvisor

“The very definition of "quaint", Foley's cottage looks like your typical old-fashioned, English home on the outside: small and charming (and thatched!”

), but inside was big enough for our family of 4 kids and 2 adults to come "home" to and relax next to a cozy fire after a tiring day of exploring the countryside. Kids (ages 6, 8, 9 and 11) loved exploring, roaming and running around the backyard playing all kinds of games. Going further afield, its location was ideally situated for day trips out to Bath, Avebury and Salisbury. Would not hesitate to recommend Foley's Cottage to friends and family ... but only if I don't book the place again first!

The Peake

“What a beautiful and welcoming cottage.”

The photos do not do it justice! We have had a wonderful week here, log fire burning, games. Everything you could need is here and the kitchen well equipped so we were able to cook a wonderful Christmas dinner

“Thank you for letting us enjoy a few days in this magnificent cottage, the ideal home for a truly traditional Christmas; it made all the difference!”

Beautiful grounds all around and some crispy snow on Wednesday!

“This cottage is wonderful.”

We all felt at home during this time. Thank you so much for everything. This place offers the perfect relaxing feeling and still you will get to see lots of places.

The property

Tucked away behind mature hedges and approached via a wooden footbridge, Foley's Cottage is every inch the quintessential English country cottage - thatched, detached, tucked away on a quiet lane, impossibly cute and surrounded by a delightful garden.

Unsurprisingly we fell in love with the cottage when we visited and are sure you will too!

Inside the cottage is cosy and peaceful yet it is full of traditional charms which give it a lovely, historic feeling.

The colours are restful and muted and with the added attraction of good quality furnishings, you can't help but feel right at home.

A stroll to the top of the grounds is rewarded by sweeping views of the surrounding downs.

In the orchard you'll find the well-appointed summerhouse providing a wonderfully peaceful haven for relaxing after a day's activities in this outstanding area, perhaps before taking a short stroll to the famous Dove Inn and restaurant just below.Its instant chocolate box visual appeal is obvious and we'd imagine you'll enjoy it as much as we did.

Foley's Cottage has been awarded 4 stars (Gold Award) by Visit England.

About the location

WARMINSTER

Frome 16 miles

The delightful Wiltshire market town of Warminster can be found to the south west of Salisbury Plain, at the head of the lush Wylye Valley, an Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty. Well known for its military connections, the old charm of the town centre has been preserved, where you can still find quaint houses and inns built from the local Warminster stone. Nearby there are lovely walks in abundance, whilst no visit to this area would be complete without exploring the stunning house, gardens and safari park at Longleat. Alternatively, visits to the magnificent cities of Bath and Salisbury, or sites of Stourhead and Stonehenge are not to be missed. This lovely area is full of surprises, providing a great base for your excursions.

Note: Small children should be supervised in the garden due to changes in level and steep spiral staircase leading to patio area. This may also not be suitable for those with limited mobility.
