Liz and Reuben have really excelled themselves with designing this barn. One of the best properties we've stayed in booked through sykes cottages. Hoping to stay again soon. Hot tub and Games room fantastic. Liz was very helpful and accommodating. Thanks Mum and Daughter Bev and Chelsea xxxx

When we visited, there was a lot of snow and ice so Liz & Reuben actually sent us the best routes to avoid the worst of the weather. The house is just awesome and the standard of cleanliness and furnishings was nothing but exceptional. We had the best time and couldn't thank Liz & Reuben enough for their care and attention. We will 100% be back and couldn't recommend this property enough. Brendan & Sophie
