  Beautiful property with amazing facilities!

  !! Myself and my partner booked the property 24hr in advance. We received email instructions with all relevant details. When we arrived at the home we had a secure garden (perfect for reactive dogs) 1/3 flags, 1/3 stones and 1/3 grass. This are was also connected to an area of additional grass which was separated by a gate but we had full use of the field(secured). Off this field there was more fields(bridleways/public foot paths etc) The property inside was clean, tidy and had all the equipment stocked that you could need. The host had stocked the fridge with some provision. A large dog bed, large bowl and dog packs were provided. The bed was comfy with the comfiest pillows. At night there is a dim sensor light outside and inside the bathroom as a safety precautions with the bathroom being at the top of the stairs. The bedroom was all open plan, large space, lots of natural light. The host provided a guide with local walks, pubs, shops, things to do etc. Along with the manuals to all appliances. Shops are local to the property. The Kingshead pub is a nice walk along the bridleway. Or a 10 minute drive. The most amazing food and staff. The fisherman's Arms is a beautiful quiet fishing spot with walks for the pooches and a cafe. The host was very polite and attentive. I have recommended this to family and friends and would definitely book again.

  We loved every minute of our stay at Garden Barn.

  Mr & Mrs William’s were extremely helpful and friendly. We stayed over the Christmas period and the barn was decorated with lovely country Xmas decorations, a real Christmas tree and other festive ornaments. The kitchen is fully stocked for all your catering needs. The beds are very comfortable and in the smaller room there is a surprising roof hatch for storage/extra sleep space. The location is peaceful and tranquil. It has been really nice watching Mr William’s farm the sheep in the field behind the barn. There is a lake in view where herons, pheasant, ducks can be seen as well as buzzards hunting the fields. Despite it being a working farm, the noise is a minimum and does not disturb. We were more than happy with this location, the vicinity and the whole booking procedure. This is a ‘dog friendly’ cottage. There is parking for 2 cars available. The road down to the barn from the main road is a bit ‘pot holey’ but this is to be expected on a working farm. Located in the perfect place for easy access to Bridgnorth, Highley, Bewdley, Kidderminster and Wyre Forest. There is plenty of local literature available for you to browse at the cottage. We will certainly consider renting this cottage again in future if we are in the area. Thank you for such a lovely time.

  Friendly hospitable hosts.

  The accommodation is on a working farm set in magnificent suroundings. We are here in lambing season; a lovely environment for peaceful holidaying with loads of walks and local attractions. The accommodation is detached, extremely comfortable with its own garden, summer house, patio and parking. The kitchen is extremely well fitted and equipped. A spacious bathroom and two excellent double bedrooms make it more than suitable for families. TV in bedroom and lounge wilth all freeview channels. Free wifi. Independent central heating and masses of hot water. A lovely woodburner. The accommodation is close to the Georgian town of Bridgnorth with its own history, especially worth visiting are the churchs, Guildhall, gardens and river. Its fernicular railway is a great experience as is the Seven Valley railway. The accommodation is within easy car travel of beautiful tourist areas including Bewdley, Much Wenlock, the Black Country museum, Ironbridge and its museums, walking in Church Stretton on the Shropshire Hills or seeing glass making in Stourbridge with its canals. There is so much to see and do and you can return to the comfortable tranquility of the cottage.

  Excellent stay, especially at that price point.

  Great cottage and owner, no complaints at all. However, the Sykes Cottages business model - six or seven useless spam emails after booking, while actual after-sales support is intentionally unreachable and useless, leaves a lot to be desired. I never received an actual invoice - email stating "we have received your payment" does not an invoice make. After asking for one to customer support email (there is no other email to be found), I got a reply in 7 days that "VAT Invoice is now requested for me" - and then nothing happened of course :-) Signed with first name only, with no email (sent from "no-reply"), and no phone number but the usual all-purpose answering machine that runs you around endless circles. A system intentionally made to be difficult for a paying customer. The only other approach point is webpage chat, which is "not available due to high demand" 24/7. What's the point of having it then? Thank god for booking.com. It would do a world of good for Sykescottages to go there and learn how to run a booking business.

  The cottage is in a farm setting, with amazing views over beautiful rolling countryside.

  There is a large raised balcony/patio area to one end of the cottage with a large wooden table and chairs for al fresco dining. A lovely secluded garden is accessed via the smaller of the two bedrooms and there is a wonderful garden room tucked into the sunny corner. Although I am a confessed lover of barn conversions and stone cottages, the features in the Garden Barn are lovely - open beams, log burning stove, an amazing tapestry above the stove, comfortable sofas and chairs and occassional tables for everything you need to hand. The bedrooms are well furnished, and we chose the smaller of the two for our stay - mostly because of the views over the garden. The owners provide a large basket of logs for the stove, and replenished it when we ran out! There are comprehensive food shops in the nearby village of Highley, and lovely woodlands walks all around the cottage. All in all, we had a wonderful week here.
