  What a gem!

  We had a wonderful 5 days at Little Acres Cottage as a couple with three dogs. The location of the cottage is fantastic, you are very private, with plenty of distance to the very few neighbours, and yet many interesting destinations in the Cotswolds are within easy reach. It is very quiet, except at peak times in the morning and evening there are hardly any cars at all and in the cottage you can't hear them anyway. The property is huge and great for dogs. The fence is not entirely dog-proof, but we don't leave our four-legged friends outside without supervision anyway, so this wasn't a problem. We watched squirrels and buzzards on the property and saw deer in the neighbouring field from the upstairs window, it was very idyllic. The cottage itself is very comfortable and cosy and has everything you need. We were especially delighted about the great kitchen and the big bath tub and the nice living room with the big settee, fireplace and TV, perfect for chilling on a rainy day in November. There are (small) beds, bowls and treats for dogs, as well as a thick folder with activity suggestions and tips. The mudroom in the entrance area is also very practical and the stone floor on the ground floor is easy to keep clean with dogs. Unlike many other holiday homes, dogs are allowed on the upper floor, but as there is carpet, you should make sure that their paws are really clean beforehand. We carried our dogs upstairs and downstairs because there are loveley wooden stairs which were a bit too smooth for our old dogs, but that was no problem at all. We had a great time here and were even able to extend a day at the last minute as there was a small gap left after our booking. Thanks to the team at Syke Cottages and the owners for their flexibility. We can warmly recommend this cottage, especially for romantic couple holidays, dog owners or families, and would love to come back.

  There were many things that made us enjoy our stay at Apple Tree Cottage.

  Here are just a few: • the hosts were extremely friendly. We turned up much later than planned and they were nothing but courteous about it. Their goodbye text was a really nice touch and mentioned our daughter which always gains a gold star in our eyes • nice touches are a theme in the cottage. Fresh flowers in rooms, welcome pack of homemade marmalade, cake, eggs etc which all tased delicious and from a local farm • accuracy of their property. It did exactly what it said on the tin withheld no nasty surprises. The cottage is so beautifully quaint with a very vibrant and pretty garden is was hard to leave and do things outside of the cottage • the village itself was super friendly. We attended the local flower festival in the church next door where you think we’d have loved there all our lives. The pub across the road the coach and horses were the same where we had some good chats about their local ale and tasted their amazing food • location wise we were smack bang where you need to be if you want to visit all the local villages in the Cotswolds, all just a short 20-40min drive. These were villages like Bourton on the water, Broadway, Moreton-in-Marsh, Stow on the wold, Stratford, Cheltenham and many more • Sykes as a company sent some useful info through on emails as well and reminders of what we needed to do on the build up to the holiday All in all very impressed and will definitely visit Apple Tree Cottage again. What a delight!

  First thatched cottage I'd ever stayed at.

  It was in an absolutely ideal location to the Cotswold's and other locations and , Harvington, the village that the cottage is in is idyllic! The owners parents live next door and were helpful and it was nice knowing they were there but they were never intrusive. The bedroom of this cottage is to die for. You can see the church steeple from your window, there is a fantastic pub practically across the street. We were there during all the Christmas festivities and Santa and his sleigh came through the village on one of the evenings we were in. The whole week was impossibly sweet and my husband (who is from Yorkshire), I'm from Chicago was one we will always remember. The cottage itself is ancient and so well maintained, the village is adorable and I SO love this area of England. I highly recommend staying at Appletree cottage for a wonderful romantic week!!! We went in November and the weather was not bad at all so I guess we got lucky!!! It was COLD though so pack your booties!!! Inside the cottage was extremely warm and toasty!!! All that was needed was a light covering of snow!

  Fue un completo desastre. No me enviaron el código de acceso, la puerta exterior no tiene número, no contestan al teléfono, encima me envían mensaje diciéndome que toda la información fue enviada el día de antes. No hacen más que enviar mensajes repetidos de publicidad, como si en esos mini estudios fuera posible contratar chef. Los colchones con muelles se clavan en la cadera, una pena que unas instalaciones nuevas no estén dadas de alta como toca, estén señalizadas en la calle y sobretodo estén limpias. No repetiría.

  Era muy espacioso. Con cama de matrimonio de 180 Sucio: cocina: el horno me atrevería a decir que nunca se ha limpiado: lleno de grasa y había tazas con las marcas del café. Éramos 3 y sin embargo solo había cubertería para dos: literalmente 2 tenedores dos cucharas y dos cuchillos. Respecto al sofá cama, es imposible que un adulto duerma ahí: el colchón es malísimo: se clavan todos los muelles. Cuando llegamos, tuvimos que hacer la cama del sofá pero el edredón tenía una mancha enorme amarilla: por consiguiente durmió solo con una sábana. Sólo te ponen un rollo y medio de papel higiénico. Al llegar no vimos la clave de la wifi por ningún lado y mandamos un mensaje al que nunca recibimos contestación: eso sí, para decirnos que dejáramos a las 10.00 el apartamento, lo mandaron la noche anterior.
