I had two windows open and accidentally booked the wrong property.. I emailed Sykes immediately who said there was nothing they could do despite the genuine booking error. They did not reply to my subsequent emails. In the end the house was beautiful and in an idyllic location. But I was not impressed with the Sykes customer service.

The cottage was lovely but could do with more or better lighting, it was a bit dark especially in the kitchen/lounge

Mrs Hupfield

The cottage is in an ideal location to escape from the stresses and strains of everyday life.. We had a lovely week here walking in the forest and by the river. The cottage itself was well equipped with everything we needed but ,more importantly than that, the owners have created a warm and friendly atmosphere where we felt like welcome guests. We are already talking about a return visit!

THIS WAS A BEAUTIFUL COTTAGE MUCH LARGER THAN THE PHOTOS SHOW, WITH GREAT VIEWS AND A FANTASTIC GARDEN.. VERY RELAXING HOLIDAY.

Mrs Jones

An enjoyable break in a very spacious and well maintained cottage.. High standard of cleanliness and facilities. The bed was extremely comfortable with good quality linen. The enclosed rear garden is brilliant for dogs and there are numerous walks straight from the door. The area is very remote and quiet and perfect for hiking and cycling. Kielder Water is just a few minutes drive and superb, with it's trails etc.

Absolutely amazing cottage, the minute you walk through the door it is welcoming, we were very surprised how big it is the pictures don't reflect the true size of the rooms.. Every thing has been thought of by the owners to a very high standard, good beds and high quality bed linen always a plus in my book.The welcome gifts of eggs, bread, milk, butter, scones and wine were very much appreciated and a nice touch. Ii is quite remote but that was just what we needed some peace and quiet with beautiful views, the stars are amazing. We will be back.

This was a wonderful holiday cottage.. As soon as we walked in the atmosphere was very calming, and we soon discovered the high quality throughout. Uncluttered but providing everything we needed. As heavy snow was forecast for our arrival day, the owner telephoned us the evening before we left. And as it transpired on the day of arrival, the owner had to collect us from the nearest town as we couldn`t proceed any further in our own car!

Shepherds Burn is a lovely and very comfortable cottage, a real retreat.. It is really isolated with miles of wonderful walks literally from the front door, great for dog walking. We will definitely try to come back again next year.
