What an absolute gem of a place.. Our dogs loved it. So quiet even though we had Storm Gareth. Spotlessly clean. Loved the flowers touch and the wine. Very comfortable bed. Lisa was very accommodating with everything. No problems at all. Most relaxing time. Will definitely be looking to stay again.

Great cottage in a great little location.. The owners (Ian & Lisa) were easily contactable and on hand when we had and questions. Would recommend a short trip to Ilam Park, the dogs absolutely loved it! Wouldn't hesitate booking again.

The cottage was lovely! To be truthful there's no words that can describe how nice the whole place was! It was that good. The people who owned the cottage were really nice & made you feel very welcome & were always there if you needed anything. It was my first time using Sykes & it wont be my last, because of the professionalism when booking your holiday.

What a find! Delightful cottage and great base for all our walks. Owners were lovely people and allowed us access to their fields to walk our dog. Beautiful cottage and home from home comforts, with bottled water, fresh milk, tea, coffee and biscuits waiting for us. All facilities you would need. Teenage kids loved the coziness and we spent a great time as family - board games and DVDs were in the cottage! Cant wait to go back again.

We felt comfortable as soon as we stepped through the door.. The cottage is so cute! It was very clean and tidy and smelt fresh. We went the last week in September so the lovely log burner fire was cosy and warm in the chilly evenings. There were some little dog treats waiting for the dog, also a comfy pet bed and doggy towels for muddy paws. The hosts were very kind and chatty, they had it just right by being there if you needed them but not being intrusive in any way. The scenery and local villages were stunning, a perfect place for long or short walks, I would definitely go back for another holiday and would highly recommend to others.....Just the perfect getaway, thank you!

This is a lovely cottage in a peaceful setting but near to attractive towns and villages as well as tourist honeypots like Alton Towers and the Potteries.. Lots of good walks or cycling routes. As I was holidaying on my own I very much appreciated the friendliness of the owners who are more than willing to give help or information if needed. The gated entrance to the drive (zapper provided) was a bonus. The cottage was refurbished in 2017 and the kitchen and bathroom are especially well fitted and equipped. A good heating system (not noisy) or log fire keeps you warm on cooler days. I really enjoyed watching the antics of the horses in the nearby field as well as seeing the buzzard family who nest nearby. I have stayed in a number of different cottages over the years and I would rate this one as excellent. Definitely on the list of cottages to return to.

The cottage advertisement on Sykes website did not advertise that there was a dvd player at the cottage when there was a dvd player there.. I think that people would like to know that. The information advertised on the Sykes website regarding pets was useful i.e that dogs must be kept on a lead when outside the cottage as the owners have livestock and also that pets should be kept off the furniture. Cottage was in a beautiful, peaceful location and was decorated to a very high standard. It was exceptionally clean upon arrival and the little things provided for our dog was very handy i.e the fluffy dog blanket and towel and the fresh water in a bowl that was left out for our arrival. Cottage has lovely views across the countryside and the owners were very friendly and told us a lot of helpful information about the local area. Cottage is close to several lovely towns. Would definately recommend.
