• "OK for a short stay, maybe only two nights."

  .. Ceilings very low, bed very low, reception very poor on TV, beautiful shower room, unfortunately the water didn't drain away very quickly in the shower and an awful smell periodically...Otherwise a lovely place...

• "We had a lovely stay at The Studio at Little Trees Farm."

  We both banged our heads on the sloping ceiling on the day we arrived but we soon learned to be careful at the sides of the room! The bed is a little low as others have commented, but this wasn't a problem for us. Most importantly it was large and very comfortable so we slept well. There were a few minor problems with the TV which seems to be new and refused to pick up most channels through the aerial. Sadly there was no cable to connect the blu-ray/DVD player to the TV either, but as it is a modern Smart TV we just used various streaming services (BBC iPlayer etc) so we had plenty to watch in the evenings. The bread and milk provided was appreciated and overall this was a comfortable and well-equipped base from which to explore the area.

• "The bed was very comfortable, however it was much too low (almost like a mattress on the floor)."

  My 85 year old mother was unable to get up from the bed & had to sleep.on the sofa. The downstairs bathroom was very cold despite being in the middle of summer & the shower head was clogged up (limescale?)with the water not flowing from the shower head evenly, creating an unpleasant shower experience. The kitchen was mostly very well equipped, however there were no sharp knives at all, making it difficult to cut bread, cheese etc. Location was very good & and in a safe area but you will need a car or taxi for going out in the evening.

• "Great stay, beautiful surroundings."

  Easy access to main roads without the noise of busier areas. Host was friendly and welcoming without being intrusive, and she provided everything needed for a pleasant stay. Plenty of room for two to three people without any issue.

• "This is a luxury studio with everything you require covered."

  Extremely clean and welcoming. A lovely quiet place to go to relax. The only point I would mention is that the bed is extremely low to get out of, it fits perfectly into the decor so I can see why this choice was made, all I will say is if you have any back or knee issues you will have a problem. Having said this what a lovely retreat the accommodation is. Thank you.

• "An absolute gem for a quiet get away."

  I was very impressed by the welcoming supplies, and basics like tea and coffee being available. A well stocked kitchen for equipment. My only problem was the bed was too low for me getting in and out, it may be mentioned in the description and I forgot, but once in it, it was very comfortable. It snowed whilst I was there, however I was cosy and war. I imagine in warmer weather sitting out looking at the gorgeous garden and wildlife would be wonderful.

• "Lovely studio and very well equipped."

  Thank you for the milk, flapjacks and chocolate bunny! Bed very comfortable. Only area we felt could be improved on was the shower as the pressure wasn't very strong and the temperature fluctuated. Towel rail was very useful in drying all our toddlers clothes! We loved watching the birds and wildlife on the bird feeder. We would definatley return!

• "All fine, nice and comfy with some lovely touches, very well equipped."

  Did did find the bed a bit low for us, but that could be due to our ages.

• "Unexpectedly spacious, well planned, and very comfortable - everything one could need and more."

  A lovely studio in a nice location. We used it as a base to visit people and places within about 30 miles so we didn't have the opportunity to look around the area properly and the only sightseeing we had planned were Bekonscot model village and Bletchley Park - both very enjoyable. As was a lunch with old friends at Zaza in Harpenden. Karen was very welcoming and helpful. The only possible downside could be the very low bed which was very comfortable once us oldies got down there!

• "The best equipped one we have ever stayed in."

  The generosity of the owners was overwhelming. The one downside was the shower room which was down 13 steps and for older folk like ourselves a little difficult so be aware.

  It has a few steps to property and wooden stairs up to main door are high. But saying that it was a beautiful setting, very quiet and safe. Owners were very nice and didn't bother us at all. Well situated for visiting many of the counties around it.

  VERY COSY (NOT CRAMPED) WITH ALL FACILITIES. IDEAL LOCATION FOR VISITING LOCAL TOURIST SPOTS, E.G. WOBURN SAFARI PARK, WHIPSNADE ZOO, LUTON HOO etc., AND HARPENDEN TOWN WITH ITS OWN ATTRACTIONS. JUST ONE THING; LOW BED AND SQUIDGY MATTRESS.

• "The Studio at Little Trees was possibly the best-equipped cottage in which I have stayed."

  Any negative criticism of it would be very marginal. (I don't like eating at a bar stool.) I chose the location because of the ease of access to another family engagement, and it suited that purpose well. Also I wanted a place in which to read, and to do some painting, and it was fine in that respect. On the other hand, I wanted to do some country walking, but the arable farm-land in the area makes for rather dull walks, the country lanes round about this area are quite busy with cars, and you are in constant earshot (once outside the cottage) of the M1 and Luton airport. If it suits your particular purposes then The Studio is brilliant, but you need to be aware of the limitations of its location.

• "From the moment I arrived I knew I would love my stay here."

  The studio was lovely and warm upon arrival which was so welcoming on a cold winters day. The welcome food pack was a nice touch and the kitchen was the best equipped I have stayed in with ample utensils, crockery, coffee and cooking sundries. The downstairs laundry area was so useful too as I was staying nearly three weeks. It really was a home from home, I didn't want for anything! The studio is in a beautiful setting, so peaceful and I enjoyed watching the pheasant and squirrels who frequently visited in the garden. I was really sad to leave and would love to visit again. Thank you Karen for making me feel welcome to your beautiful home.

  Most enjoyed sitting out on the decking in the mornings watching the squirrels play in the lovely garden. Karen, the host, was very welcoming and gave us some good pointers on nice places to visit. There was a good welcome pack on arrival including tea, coffee, bread, butter etc and the studio had everything you need for your stay including washing machine, dishwasher, dvds,board games and much more. Excellent base to visit places of interest or to just sit around and unwind so I would definitely recommend staying here.

• "Studio at little trees farm is a beautifully presented loft conversion with great attention to detail and quality fittings and appliances throughout."

  Great bathroom with large shower. Match that with a very friendly warm welcome and a thoughtfully stocked studio and you have a perfect combination. This is one of the very best Sykes properties we have stayed in. Location wise it is perfect for local large village with nice pubs and eateries. Excellent location for visiting central London for a show or whatever. Within easy driving distance of Cambridge and Oxford which are both so well worth a visit. Discovering picture perfect villages in the area is also a must. Last point, why do Sykes list this property as Cambridgeshire ? That is not correct, it is Hertfordshire in fact. Please amend. J & J
