  August 2022.

  Firstly, thank you so much to Hayley & Martin for a wonderful stay at your gorgeous, peaceful & relaxing Hen House View. The directions were really helpful and spot on from Hayley, first time we have found a Sykes property straightaway! On arrival and walking in our first impression was 'wow' The Welcome Pack was very informative also the added touches such as Prosecco, milk in the fridge & crisps were very thoughtful and a lovely touch. This property had everything we needed, the bed was so comfortable and the Hot Tub amazing to relax in after our days out, especially after visiting the lovely Cannock Chase. This property was very secure for our dog who made herself at home and loved all the walks on our doorstep. Hayley & Martin were so welcoming and from first impressions we knew that if we did require to contact them they would be there. We visited various places and highly recommend Antlers also Whites Cafe which is very dog friendly, welcoming your dog inside and out. Both did delicious food and the owners were so welcoming & friendly. We went and ordered a takeaway from Shimla Palace where I was very warmly greeted, they were so polite and friendly chatting with me the whole time and their food was superb. All the staff were fantastic. Thank you for such a lovely holiday, it was exactly what we needed at this time also nice to take time to unwind & make memories. Mr & Mrs Bland.

  Hen House View was absolutely wonderful.

  It was perfect and the surrounding area was perfect for us and our dog. We are planning to return next year and loved every second! The owners were exceptional in their service - friendly and helpful and we were so grateful for the welcome goodies of bread, butter, cookies, milk and prosecco! The electrician Phil who was working on the lodge next door was also really helpful in assisting us with the best places in the local area. The hot tub, the log burner, the massive bath... all amazing! I recommended to a friend who has booked a well earned holiday there with her dog. Cannot recommend Hen House View highly enough. Absolutely loved it! Nearby pub the Greyhound is lovely and dog friendly and we really enjoyed walks in the local area such as Cannock Chase and the surrounding areas such as the village of Colton and Blithfield Reservoir. The only reason I have given Sykes a 5 is because of their phone calls and emails requesting feedback while we were away. It really wasn't necessary to have our well earned break interrupted in this way. I did address this with them and I did get an apology via email and then the calls ceased so I did appreciate Sykes taking note of my comments.

  Hen House View is a lovely, relaxing, countryside retreat but within close proximity to attractions.

  The hot tub was great and because hedges have grown and the flowered garden has developed since photos were taken it is now very private. The property was spotlessly clean and well equipped with quality items. Plenty of room in the fridge with a smallish freezer compartment. Really good cooker. Very comfortable bed. Under floor heating worked well, controlled by a thermostat. We found the Wi-Fi worked well. Within walking distance to Ye Old Dun Cow which was good for food but a little expensive. Lichfield was pleasant and our family really enjoyed the beautiful park. Canal side farm shop is well worth a visit for food. Nice cafe there and can enjoy a walk by the canal. Thank you Haley and Martin for the Prosecco and welcome items. We have thoroughly enjoyed our week with our family as we booked both properties. First time at Hen House View but we’ve stayed at The Hen House before and would highly recommend both. Strong possibility we’ll be booking again.

  Your advert for this property is wrong, Hen House View is located in Staffordshire and not Derbyshire.

  The property is lovely, the overgrown tree outside the building near the hot tub could do with cutting back. Everything you need is at this property and welcome pack is extremely thoughtful and appreciated. Prospective customers should be aware that some heavy plant and traffic on the one 1 track lanes due to 2 farms in the vicinity. We did our homework, as we had a dog with us we booked with being able to walk to 2 pubs for food, the Ye Olde Dun Cow in is not dog friendly unless you sit outside so weather permissive, The Greyhound is dog friendly and the home cooked food reviews looked good, however, when we arrived, the landlord said it was a wet pub and did not provide food even though it said that they do on the front of the building. Just be aware of this. Lovely getaway though, can’t go wrong with Hayley/Martin and the property, great private hot tub and secure grounds for the dog. Thanks for having us.

  We’ve stayed at Hen House View twice now (once in the winter and once in the summer).

  Both times we have thoroughly enjoyed staying here. The owners are very friendly and welcoming. A bottle of Prosecco and a bag of crisps greet you, which a lovely gesture and gets the holiday off to a good start. They’ve spent money on all the right things; spacious and high quality bathroom, super king bed, log burner and heated floor throughout the bathroom and living space. Everything you need is thoughtfully provided. The small but sweet garden is fully enclosed and feels very private. There’s lots of quiet walks around the area, perfect for dogs (and people) to explore. The local village shop, The Cow Shed in Colton, is well worth a visit, I recommend the takeaway lasagne. Overall I highly recommend this place and we look forward to our next visit.
