"'The Barn' property is a hidden gem."
Beautiful peaceful and private setting. Very clean, rustic looking with own garden, private parking and enclosed field I used as a dog run. Well stocked house and friendly host who introduced himself soon after arrival, offered suggestions for local points I may have found of interest and made it clear if I had any issues to get in touch (I had no issues at all). Five Star property, would highly recommend.
Thank you Craig. So pleased that you enjoyed your stay. Stephen & Jeanette Property Owner

Fantastic barn, your pictures of the property don’t do it justice, especially down stairs with the lovely wood by the toilet, your photos make it look like ply wood

"Everything about this property is stunning, a beautiful barn conversion completed to a very high standard, the upstairs with its exposed beams is absolutely amazing !"
The owners have thought of everything - very comfortable beds, a well equipped kitchen, lovely dining table and relaxing seating area. You have your own peaceful garden area to enjoy. It is very quiet, tucked away down a little country lane but just 10 minutes from Leominster. We had a wonderful stay at this luxurious accommodation and will definitely come back.

"Excellent stay, especially at that price point."
Great cottage and owner, no complaints at all. However, the Sykes Cottages business model - six or seven useless spam emails after booking, while actual after-sales support is intentionally unreachable and useless, leaves a lot to be desired. I never received an actual invoice - email stating "we have received your payment" does not an invoice make. After asking for one to customer support email (there is no other email to be found), I got a reply in 7 days that "VAT Invoice is now requested for me" - and then nothing happened of course :-) Signed with first name only, with no email (sent from "no-reply"), and no phone number but the usual all-purpose answering machine that runs you around endless circles. A system intentionally made to be difficult for a paying customer. The only other approach point is webpage chat, which is "not available due to high demand" 24/7. What's the point of having it then? Thank god for booking.com. It would do a world of good for Sykescottages to go there and learn how to run a booking business.

"A great stay."
The cottage is in a great location and is furnished and equipped to a high standard. Whether you want a quiet few days, or be able to reach out and hit the hills, this is a great base for either.
Thank you for your kind words. We agree. It is an oustandingly beautiful part of the country. Property Owner

"I was very pleased with the cottage, it was better than I imagined."
The weather was perfect and that also helped to spend a lot of time outside on the enclosed garden however when we needed heating on we couldn't figure out how it worked (even with the instructions). Internet connection was really poor, thankfully the work I had to do wasn't urgent so I could enjoy a complete holiday from the outside world. And the instructions for the rubbish wasn't very clear too so we ended up placing the bin bags outside, not knowing where the correct place would've been. Apart from that, I was really impressed with the place, how beautiful it was decorated giving it a feel of luxury and all the appliances available which made us feel at home. Shortly after we arrived we were greeted by the owners who were very friendly and down to earth. Surely a cottage I'd like to go back to in the near future.

"Beautiful property with amazing facilities!"
!! Myself and my partner booked the property 24hr in advance. We received email instructions with all relevant details. When we arrived at the home we had a secure garden (perfect for reactive dogs) 1/3 flags, 1/3 stones and 1/3 grass. This are was also connected to an area of additional grass which was separated by a gate but we had full use of the field(secured). Off this field there was more fields(bridleways/public foot paths etc) The property inside was clean, tidy and had all the equipment stocked that you could need. The host had stocked the fridge with some provision. A large dog bed, large bowl and dog packs were provided. The bed was comfy with the comfiest pillows. At night there is a dim sensor light outside and inside the bathroom as a safety precautions with the bathroom being at the top of the stairs. The bedroom was all open plan, large space, lots of natural light. The host provided a guide with local walks, pubs, shops, things to do etc. Along with the manuals to all appliances. Shops are local to the property. The Kingshead pub is a nice walk along the bridleway. Or a 10 minute drive. The most amazing food and staff. The fisherman's Arms is a beautiful quiet fishing spot with walks for the pooches and a cafe. The host was very polite and attentive. I have recommended this to family and friends and would definitely book again.
