Heathrow Cottages B&B

We wanted a good nights rest and a last taste of London before flying back to the US from Europe. Heathrow Cottages was perfect! Lovely historic building with a SUPER comfortable bed, GREAT shower and towels, a generous tea tray set up in the room and delicious breakfast in the morning. PLUS, an included ride to the airport in the morning. We definitely recommend you give them a try!

It's quite pleasing and surprising to find an actual 17th century cottage, nicely converted with elegant up-to-date bathroom and a very agreeable lounge and dining area. I can't comment on the breakfast because my plane left too early. Pleasant host was helpful about places nearby to get evening meal, but did not get back to me to book a taxi for the next morning as he had said he would. In general communication was not great. I was under the impression from the website that they could provide an airport transfer from Heathrow, but multiple calls emails ahead of time got no response. So I ended up paying 40 GBP for a 9 minute, 2.7 mile ride from Terminal 5. In addition, I almost missed my morning flight when a scheduled taxi cancelled in the night. That's not the fault of Heathrow Cottages, but does show does illustrate the downside of booking a charming b&b a bit out of the way at the south end of the airport. It would have been cheaper for me to hire a car for the journey from Bury St Edmond on the morning of my flight.

Property was clean and quite comfortable. Concenient to Heathrow. Taxi fare is about £40. I was charged no fare to get me back to the airport.

Great room, comfy bed and soft pillows. The bathroom was very large with an amazing shower. First really hot water we had in 10 days of traveling. Nice little cookies and tea things in room. The owner gave us a ride to the airport in the morning, but be sure to let them know ahead of time that you need a ride. Breakfast is not included in the price but the “continental” breakfast was better quality than you normally see. We would stay here again if the opportunity arose. Not many dinner options in the neighborhood as we had turned in our rental car already, but we ended up eating in a pub called the Five Bells where the people were friendly and welcoming.

Alan was very kind and very helpful. The room was perfect after a 24 hours of travel. Everything I needed was there, I would definitely recommend and return!

We loved the comfortable and updated convenience of this unique house. Very accommodating and friendly owners who made tea (or coffee) in the afternoon and with breakfast available. We enjoyed the ambiance of the room in a house built in the 1600's that had a great shower, fluffy towels and comfortable bed. The free shuttle to the airport was appreciated. My sister and I walked around the neighborhood and visited a very old beautiful church. Later we went to the local pub for an outstanding dinner (fish and chips for me and meat pie for my sister.). All in all, it was a delightful visit.

The building itself is full of character, but the furnishings are very old, very worn, and not very clean.

It was a lovely place to stay for one night. Relatively close to the airport which is why we chose to stay there. Owners were pleasant.

The manager was helpful, and my room (number 4) had a nicely updated bathroom, and a comfortable bed. The downsize was I wasn't expecting to be in a run-down looking neighborhood, and as a woman traveleing alone, I felt a bit uncomfortable walking to the store to get some food. The manager drove me to the airport in the morning which was a nice plus!
