Guests that stayed at this property said
Reviews frequently highlight the property's cleanliness, describing it as spotless and well-maintained. The attention to cleanliness contributes significantly to guests' overall positive experiences.
The location is celebrated for its tranquility and picturesque countryside views. Guests appreciate the peacefulness and the proximity to local attractions, making it an ideal retreat.
Comfort is a standout feature, with guests finding the property cosy and the beds comfortable. The spaciousness and warmth from the Aga add to the overall comfort, although a minor note on water pressure in showers slightly impacts the score.
The barn is well-equipped with a hot tub, games, and a well-appointed kitchen. However, some guests mention minor issues with water pressure and a DVD player not working, which suggests room for improvement in maintenance.
While guests mention the kindness of the hosts and the provision of fresh eggs, there is not enough consistent information about thoughtful gestures or gifts to accurately score this category. It should be noted that such gestures, while appreciated, are not guaranteed.

Dvd player did not work. Fridge smelt like off milk. Arga was substandard and did not cook food well. Light switch in kitchen broken. Not enough hot water for 8 guests. Only left 3 dish washing tablets, for 3 nights for eight guests - then deducted £40 in bond when house was left "messy". Did not communicate with client that £40 of bond was being deducted, client had to reach out to check why. Private road upto property has multiple pot hols, causing damage to 1 car. We are eight girls in our 30s, we hire a property every year off Sykes Cottages. We have never had issues with Bonds not being returned before. We feel the property should advertise to family's if they do not like to hire to same sex young clients. Also I feel if money is being deducted it is the responsibility of the property owners to reach out to the client to info them, and explain reasons behind deductions. Not for client to see this on their bank statement.

Very clean and spacious for our group of 7. Beds were really comfy. Unfortunately it rained quite a bit during our stay but that did not dampen our stay here at all. The hot tubs was really lovely. Only downside I want to mention that some of us did find it a bit cold, especially in the morning, we were not able to adjust the heating. All in all I would definitely recommend this place, it was really lovely and inviting. The owners were lovely and helpful. We will be returning!
