    It was perfect for our group which consisted of four retired couples. The location was ideal with several walks and attractions within easy reach either on foot or via car. The local pub, 50 yards away, was a huge bonus and the staff were great and the beer and food even better. John and Avril were incredible helpful and on hand, via text, to assist if needed.

    It was beautifully decorated and felt very festive. The beds are all really comfy, plenty of room in the lounge and round the dining table. The woodburner was fab - got a bit too warm for some of us, but perfect for the older relatives! Lots of games and books to keep you entertained. The kitchen is really well equipped and the range stove is great to cook with. Our Christmas meal was a triumph. The local area is very picturesque. The local pub is great - even better, it's so close. John and Avril are very welcoming hosts, thank you for the treats you left us and thank you for a really lovely stay in your beautiful house.

    This needs to be clearly notified on Sykes web site as some dogs sleep in the bedroom with their owners. On a very positive note the cottage is superb.
