About this listen

A heartwarming, uplifting village romance for fans of Holly Martin, Tilly Tennant and Cathy Bramley.

Buying a thatched cottage in the country may not be the usual cure for a broken heart. But after Clara Maxwell finds out her boyfriend and best friend have been sneaking around behind her back, packing her bags and leaving everything in London behind feels like it's the only way forward. When Henry Garnett, her (rather handsome) new contractor, turns up with his little daughter Pansy and a van shaped like a cottage in tow, she isn't sure whether to laugh or cry. What on earth has she gotten herself into? Still, there is something strangely lovable about the people in the little village of Merryknowe, from Rachel Brown, the quiet, lonely girl who bakes magical confections for the tearooms, to Tassie McIver, a little old lady with a lot of wisdom and a penchant for reading tea leaves. With all the heartbreak of the year behind her, could Acorn Cottage be the fresh start Clara so desperately wants?

I’ve listened to so many audio books I dread to think how many - this one is by far my absolute favourite!!! The story was beautiful & the narrator was superb - I giggled, shed a few tears but most of all I smiled from start to finish. Highly recommended xx

Beautiful!! Beautiful!! Beautiful!!

This book was so charming and quaint . I really enjoyed it . It was different to most romances, it was more a book about love and kindness and caring for those around you. I could see the cottage , it was really descriptive. Some of it was a little gloomy, but was necessary for the story. I found it delightful 😊, slightly old fashioned, but I liked that . Only drawback was when narrator did the man's voice , as she made him sound as if he had a sore throat.

Oodles of charm.
