• "We have stopped at Stubb Oak previously and will be returning next June."

  It is a wonderful area with stunning views and plenty of walks. Although we had a very wet week, it is a very relaxing stay and has all the amenities you could need. We're looking forward to returning in the summer and feeding the badgers in the evenings, hopefully a bit drier!!

  Hi Mike and Sue here so glad you enjoyed your stay at our cottage like you say it’s very relaxing and plenty to see and do however if you’re unlucky and get the rain it is a little depressing so chin up and try some of the garden centres around they are great and cafes or do what we do wellies on and best foot forward, mind you I like walking in the rain. Come again hopefully the weather will be better. All the best stay safe. Mike and Sue Property Owner

• "We have stopped at this property seven times now!"

  Partly because we visit friends that live in Ledbury, but having found this particular cottage, it offers us absolutely everything we need and having a dog that suffers with anxiety and is also reactive to other dogs, returning to the same place is beneficial in removing some of his stress. The cottage is roomy offering us plenty of space for our family to join us and stop over with us for a few nights, along with our friends joining us for the evening for a get together and a takeaway! Plenty of parking available with the two driveways for all our cars! A great entrance room ideal for muddy paws and wet coats!! Everything is so well appointed when I come down to the cottage it really feels like coming home!! There’s so much to do out and about but if you don’t go out, you can be perfectly happy relaxing watching the birds and cheeky squirrels scurrying around in the garden. Also lovely to see the nightly visit by the badgers.

  Thank you for your feedback it’s always nice to hear if you enjoyed your time at our cottage and by the number of visits you must enjoy yourselves we try to have everything you need so if there is anything that we need to get let us know the only thing we are unable to get is decent weather but there are plenty of places around to visit,come again it’s nice having you. All the best stay safe. Mike and Sue Property Owner

  The beds, sofas and equipement were good quality. There was everything one could possibly need. The cleanliness was excellent. The bungalow is so light and airey. The garden was beautiful and well kept. We were well entertained by the birds on the numerous feeders and the squirrels. The regular evening visits of the badgers is an amazing experience. It was a shame to come home. I cannot thank the owners enough for providing such a wonderful holiday home.

  Many thanks for your review so glad you enjoyed all we could offer and our visiting wildlife you would be surprised at how much we spend on the wild animal and bird food but it’s worth every penny just to see our little visitors. Many thanks come again. Mike and Sue Property Owner

  Home from home, with everything you could think of in the kitchen. The beds were really comfortable, as were the sofas, and my dogs loved the huge garden to play and explore. Mr. Badger visited every evening, and the birds on all the feeders were wonderful to watch. For dog owners, there is a walk straight from the door up the lane which was really handy. All in all, a peaceful, comfortable and relaxing week, and we shall be back next year!

  Many thanks for your review it’s nice to know you enjoyed your stay at our cottage as you say there is a walk up the lane also there is a bridal path which runs beside the lane however it’s a little overgrown at present but it’s ideal to go down and from there at the end you can walk round the fields even across to Colwall Church.Come again and try the walks round.

• "Stubb Oak is simply a fabulous place to spend time, and not even the recent inclement weather put a dampener on an immensely relaxing, thoroughly enjoyable week at this cottage."

  I’d give it six stars if I could. The cottage was spotlessly clean, exceptionally comfortable, and extremely well equipped. The owners were very helpful and responded to any queries promptly, but they weren’t the least bit intrusive. The cottage is located in a remarkably tranquil setting and its garden is visited by a wide variety of wildlife, especially birds. If you’re looking for a peaceful, comfortable stay in stunningly beautiful countryside, look no further than Stubb Oak. I am already looking at returning.

  Shaun thank you for your lovely review sorry the weather wasn’t the best but if you’re like me if there’s plenty to see around then the wildlife and birds make up for the weather, we aim to make the cottage as comfortable as possible and like you say just leave you to enjoy yourselves if there’s anything you think would be a asset just let us know,so glad you are thinking of returning hope to see you in the future all the best stay safe and a happy new year.

  Wish we could have stayed longer! Great cottage - all of the facilities you would want to see (and more!). Well placed for our planned walking - even did the circular walk around the village based on the historic fruit farming business. The beds are dreamy. The lounges more than comfortable. Kitchen exceptionally well kitted out. The visits by the wildlife were enchanting; from the tenacious squirrels, daft pheasants and assortment of other birds - absolute treat was a red and black and white woodpecker. But the icing on the cake was the nightly Brock visits. Fabulous. Reading the guest book there are many return visitors and I think our name will be on there soon!

• "What a total gem."

  Perfect for our wee group of 3 adults, 3 kids and a dog. Fully equipped. Exceptionally clean. Some lovely walks around local area. Fully secure and enclosed garden. Like most folk…the badgers were a highlight in the evening too. We were in area to visit family so didn’t do many activities however priory park in Malvern was great place and a lovely find. Sadly the swimming pool in Malvern was less so- went to evening family splash session in evening and place is dirty, pool is cold and staff less then helpful- so save yourself from that experience. Would love to come back to Stubb Oak; owners and house were just fab!

  Thank you for your review we aim to provide everything you need and have at home and yes we got badgers not what you usually see at your back door but what a treat, sorry to hear about your visit to the swimming pool I must say I have never been there and thanks for the heads up I will cross that off my places to visit come again we still have a lot to see and do, all the best stay safe.

  It feels like a home from home, relaxing , clean and amazingly well stocked. The beds are super comfy too and the owners really have thought of everything that you might need during your stay. 2 lounges, each with a smart TV too, so plenty of space for 6 people The gardens are large, secure and well equipped with garden furniture enabling you to enjoy a drinks and food outside The bird feeders attract so many different species and watching the badgers come to feed at dusk is wonderful Parking for 4 cars on the drives too is a real bonus The location in Colwall is great as you can visit so many places either on foot, for example a 6 mile return trip to The Kettle Sings across the fields and hills and the food is lovely, as are the spectacular views from the cafe, or by car to Ledbury, Symonds Yat, Upton upon Severn, Tewkesbury and Worcester. There is a train station too with connections to Birmingham and the West Midlands. There is a small convenience store in Colwall for essentials and newspapers within walking distance There are so many walks to do in the Malvern Hills, a wonderful theatre and cinema in Great Malvern, plus plenty of eateries and a waitrose. Highly recommend Stubb Oak for a relaxing break if you love an outdoors holiday in beautiful British countryside no matter what the weather is doing

  Thank you for your lovely review,so glad you got about and enjoyed all there is to offer around us however there’s still plenty left to see and do especially the falconry centre at Newent that’s about 8 miles away but worth the visit, come again check it out, all the best stay safe.

• "We absolutely loved the property - bungalow, garden and outlook."

  The moment I walked in and looked around I fell in love with it, wanted to stay there forever! There was everything we needed for a comfortable stay. The only suggestion I would make is to let people know in advance a bit more detail as to what is there: for example, I texted and asked whether there was a cafetière and a hairdryer but didn't get a response (there are two cafetières, and a hairdryer in each bedroom). Also, we only discovered the binoculars (in a storage footstool) as we were tidying up to leave: we would have used these to watch the birds and wildlife had we known about them. But these are minor details, the property is fantastic: if you want tranquillity, outdoor space and indoor comfort, this is the place to go.

  Hi glad you enjoyed your stay at our cottage, sorry about the text we never received one otherwise we would have replied but all you had to do was open the cupboards to see if there were any cafeterias also there is a info sheet letting you know of items in box such as games etc sorry you didn’t check the sheet, however the binoculars are a bonus as these items you usually bring with you like cameras, still if you come again you will be more aware.

Cleanliness and presentation were exceptional and no doggy odour or hairs, so our cats settled in very quickly. The wildlife was fabulous, from birds to the cheeky badgers.

• "The property was exactly as decribed."

  Very clean with a great quiet location. We loved watching the birds and the nightly badger visit. One thing I would say, is that there were far too many emails from Sykes Cottages re: Information needed about who was visiting, signing up to 'our account' etc. Thanks The Chapman's
