Tripadvisor’s approach to reviews
Before posting, each Tripadvisor review goes through an automated tracking system, which collects information, answering the following questions: how, what, where and when. If the system detects something that potentially contradicts our community guidelines, the review is not published.
When the system detects a problem, a review may be automatically rejected, sent to the reviewer for validation, or manually reviewed by our team of content specialists, who work 24/7 to maintain the quality of the reviews on our site.
Our team checks each review posted on the site disputed by our community as not meeting our community guidelines.

From the moment we arrived, we were met by Cristina who gave us a warm welcome. She was very personable and her thoughtful touches didn’t go unnoticed.

Ollie’s friendly manner and charming smile instantly made us feel very welcome! He kindly ensured our reservation at the ‘Hinds Head’ was in place for our arrival. The food and service here was second to none.

A lovely clean, spacious, well-appointed property which was equipped to a very high standard. The beautiful great taste in decor and the ambience set, made our stay all the more enjoyable.

The beds were comfortable with good quality bed linen and the beautiful, stylish bathrooms had large, soft towels along with added amenities.

We throughly enjoyed the thoughtful breakfast provisions, the well stocked fridge and complimentary drinks provided.

The amazing team at Bray cottages really have thought of everything! The numerous, extra added touches they offered made for a truly wonderful stay.

We will highly recommend Bray Cottages to our friends & family and will be sure to return ourselves. Thank you very much Ollie & Cristina for the most incredible stay.

Mr & Mrs C

We stayed at the Christmas cottage for several nights when over in Bray to enjoy the various restaurants.

The location of the Cottage couldn't be more perfect - just few meters from the Fat Duck and the Hinds Head and only a short walk to the Waterside Inn.

The focus of our trip was the various restaurants, but the cottage really made the picture complete.

We truly enjoyed our stay and the staff is absolutely brilliant!

Once arrived at the beautiful Cottage, we had a very warm welcome from Christina. She gave us a little tour of the Cottage - and of Bray - and even managed to get us booked in last minute for dinner in the Hinds Head for the evening.

The cottage itself is fabulous and we thoroughly enjoyed the breakfast provisions, the well stocked fridge, and the complimentary drinks provided.

Throughout our stay Oliver popped in to make sure all was well and to drop of a really nice cheese board and bottle of Champagne. Nothing was too much for them.

Loved the location, the cottage itself and the staff and would highly recommend staying here.

My wife and hope to return soon!

I’ve been trying to keep this gorgeous collection of cottages a secret but I must do it justice and write this review, after our most recent stay. Firstly the warm welcome we have always received from Ollie and Cristina is of a 7 star service. They know what our favourite drinks are (ready for when we arrive) and they book us in to the restaurants they know we will love. The service they provide is phenomenal.

The cottages are elegantly furnished, immaculately clean and I simply love the little touches like fresh bread, refreshments, flowers, charcoal water, roses in the bathroom, aromatherapy associates toiletries, chocolates in the bedroom and a dog bed for our dog if needed to name but a few!

There is so much to do within the surrounding area, lovely walks or bike rides. 3 very local Michelin star restaurants or the team can organise Jack Blumenthal to cook for you privately which is something I must book for our next visit as it sounds amazing.

We have stayed as a couple with our dog dining at The Crown and with friends enjoying what the Hinds Head has to offer which is always exceptional.

Thank you Ollie, Cristina and all of the Bray team. You have a life long customers. We are already looking forward to our next stay.

The cottages are wonderful grade 2 listed buildings I believe with all modern appliances to hand. Nothing is left to chance and all amenities provided make you feel you are in a unique, charming and superbly located surroundings in the heart of the magnificent quintessentially English village of Bray. Nothing is left to chance by Ollie and his team. It’s like going back in time only to realise you are well and truly in 2024. Breakfast is provided for you to prepare at your leisure in a modern well fitted kitchen and there are even crystal decanters with gin and whiskey available to you. There is a large free car park opposite. If you are looking to stay in Bray, look no further!

I contacted Ollie, Christina and Denise without much hope of being able to reserve a cottage as it was short notice. Luckily for me they had last minute availability in Dormer Cottage, the location suited us perfectly as it was within staggering distance of The Fat Duck. We were impressed with the quality of the welcome, décor and extras left for us in the cottage, everything was of a high standard. The small hygiene pack containing a couple of masks, hand sanitiser and tissue was cute. There was a good choice of breakfast produce and a small but perfectly formed complimentary bar. Having made the ridiculous mistake of forgetting our toothbrushes we were extremely grateful to Christina for driving to the shop and picking some up. The small perfectly formed garden at the cottage was a nice touch. The cottage is perfect for anyone dining at any of the restaurants in Bray, we are already considering a return trip to visit the Waterside Inn.

My wife and I booked Tiggers Cottage for one night in order to be close at hand for the Waterside Inn. The cottage was a 2 minute walk from the restaurant and was the perfect size for the two of us, plus my son and his partner. t was clean, tidy, extremely comfortable and very tastefully furnished. A pleasant courtyard garden at the back made an ideal retreat from the house itself. The kitchen was particularly well equipped and had been stocked with everything we needed for a super cooked breakfast the morning after our restaurant meal. Ollie and his colleagues were extremely thorough in making sure all the arrangements were in place prior to our stay and we were met at the cottage on arrival to introduce us to the property. The perfect place for a short stay in Bray for four, albeit expensive as everywhere in this pretty little village is.

Friends and I stayed at Tigger's Cottage as we were dining at the Hind's Head. It's a stunning cottage and has everything you need, with great attention to detail. Ollie showed us around the cottage so we knew where everything was, including the well stocked fridge with breakfast and complimentary drinks. Everything is to a very high standard with lots of special touches and extras - highly recommended!

We stayed at the Tiggers Cottage from September 22nd - September 25th 2020 as a family (my wife and two 4 year old twins) and the experience were truly magical. The booking process was very smooth and Ollie was extremely helpful in personalizing the arrangements before hand so that when we arrived not only was the arrangements at the cottage perfectly done but all the reservations for the restaurants (it is within walking distance of 2 x 3 michelin star restaurnats : fat duck & waterside inn as well as many other excellent options) as well as other activities such as the private boat ride from bray marina to windsor castle were arranged. The bray cottages team were accessible 24 x 7 and were so helpful that we felt like we were staying at a top class 5 star hotel. The cottage itself was very nice and cozy, very spacious, great for kids (who said they do not want to leave bray to go back to london...), has a beautiful garden, fully stocked with a lovely open kitchen where one can make breakfast with the amazing local produce. Literally everything starting from the eggs to the bed side chocolate are hand picked, top of the line brands that can be selected in England. We also requested for a bouquet, special chocolate cake, cheese platter, picnic arrangements which were all beyond our expectation. The cottage was maintained very well and the cleaner visited on a daily basis to tidy up the premises and also do all the dishes (wish we had known on the first day so we could have been even more spoilt!) A very special thanks to the Bray Cottages team - Ollie, Christina & Denise & we will certainly return back for more special occasions so that we can make more memorable memories with the family.

I was booked into Christmas Cottage as a surprise birthday treat as we were going to The Fat Duck to eat, which is literally a few steps away from the cottage.
This cottage, although originally was only a one up, one down, has been extended, modernised, and is furnished to a high standard. It was filled with lots of goodies for us to feast on, from sloe gin to artisan popcorn, dry gin to bakewell tarts, plus included all of the fresh ingredients required for an English breakfast!
The team from Bray Cottages certainly know what their customers want and Ollie, Christina and the team went over and above to ensure that our stay was perfect.

We booked our stay with Bray Cottages for the first weekend in October to celebrate a friend’s birthday. We were firstly treated by Christina who showed us around the house and what was where etc. She was very professional and friendly, no question was too much. There was a complementary bar and a fridge brimming with high quality fresh breakfast items such as yogurts, orange juice, bacon, even lemons for the gin! On further inspection we found freshly made bread, eggs and vine tomatoes. This was so thoughtful and unexpected. Olly then checked to see if we were happy with everything, told us about the local walks and pubs in the local area, such lovely service and a personal touch.
The rooms were spacious and clean, with ample storage and lighting. The bathrooms all had large, walk in showers with fresh laundry and complementary toiletries.

We didn’t want our stay to end and would love to book again soon. I can’t recommend it enough!
