What our customers say about their holidays

  Hi Rupert and Helen, thank you for the use of your lovely holiday home.

  We loved the lovely spacious open and roomy areas. The WIFI worked well in all areas, hot water was plentiful, beds clean and very comfortable. Bathrooms, showers, all to a very high standard, appreciated by all. On the other hand. On arrival we found all the locks stiff and difficult to turn on entry. Plus key labelling could help. Dirty or poorly cleaned crockery, cookware and frying pan handle had to be put back on, on arrival. Third double bedroom would benefit from some noise attenuation to reduce boiler/water pipes/shower. It disturbed my sons sleep. Also outside seating cushions were wet, the cover not keeping the water out. We have left them dry and in the Games room under the Bar billiards table. Back to the positive, nice to have toys and books for our granddaughter we spent a thoroughly good time having our first family holiday for a long time. The games room was a big hit. We also experienced the aurora borealis during the night of the solar storm this made an extra special experience in the garden. Thank you once again for the welcoming beers. We would have no problem recommending your holiday home to our friends, thank you, Kind regards. Paul Betty and family.

  The property itself was good, and useable but with a number of caveats which may or may not affect your confidence in booking it.

  The twin bedded bedroom can only be accessed by passing through the double bedroom with implications for privacy in the double bedroom and requires users of the twin bedded bedroom to access the lounge and kitchen via the outside of the property if they are needing to avoid disturbing the occupants of the double bedroom. There was a complete absence of joining instructions other than the keycode combination and inaccurate keysafe instructions in the lid of the keysafe. In the absence of such instructions I had problems operating the keysafe to access the property, a day without hot water pending the owner providing instructions as to how this should be turned on and problems finding the name and password for the wifi as the owner had not provided these or given instructions on which of the various electronic boxes was the router or its location. This meant that I had a day of hassle whilst I contacted Sykes and the owner to get these issues resolved.

  This was perfect for our needs.

  Facilities were all great and the house was well equipped and very clean. Beds were comfortable too. Garden was lovely and kitchen well equipped. Although close to the road it wasn’t noisy. Quirky interior. The minor niggles we found (although didn’t spoil the experience) were as follows; We probably could have done with an extra toilet roll per bathroom with nine people staying 1 per bathroom was not enough. The shower upstairs didn’t drain properly. The downstairs loo handle was tricky to open with trapping fingers. A first aid kit? We couldn’t find one Summer duvets The blind in upstairs room was a bit of a battle. Having said that the positives far outweighed any negatives and only really mentioning as they can be easily rectified for other guests.

  We have just returned from a lovely week in Sussex staying at the Dog and Trout. The cottage was super comfy and well equipped, with lovely large bathrooms. Our cockapoo was able to stretch his legs in the pretty and secluded garden. We really appreciated the lovely welcome gifts and it was nice to meet the owners, Julie and Martyn, who were very helpful. We were lucky enough to have mostly sunny weather and particularly enjoyed the three village pubs, which were all dog friendly and served great food. We went for some lovely walks from the cottage across the downs, up to Cissbury Ring, and travelled further afield to the coast and to the Weald & Downland Living Museum. Would recommend a car to get to the shops and village eateries. We may well be back!!

  We had a lovely family get together!

  The decor and comfort were amazing! The late check out was a kind gesture The main problem we had was the temperature fluctuations in both showers. All nine of us ended up showering in the bath with a hand held shower attachment. I did ask the owner about this with out any solution. Small things could be improved…. Couple of larger saucepans ( cooking pasta in 2 saucepans wasn’t ideal) Maybe a large Wok A blender Somewhere to hang coats? Shoe rack at the door? These are just small adjustments that would improve the holiday experience. I’m not complaining, just giving suggestions! I’ve rented out holiday villas in spain for many years, so I know what people want! We really had a great time. Thanks very much, Kim and Family
