"Our time at Cheriton was lovely, the house was like a home away from home."
Diane and Dave went above and beyond, leaving basics like bread, butter, and eggs, and treats like candy for the kids. It was also in a great location that was easily walkable to shops, and we were able to get to the Halloween Trick or Treat trail in Ilkeston. Overall we enjoyed our two weeks and would love to spend more time exploring from Cheriton!

"This was a wonderful experience the owner went above and beyond to provide a very special service."

"We thoroughly enjoyed our stay at this property."
It is the most dog friendly place we've stayed in to date.
-
"The holiday property was very good, really comfortable, and all facilities and equipment that we needed."
Only one quibble - the address did not give a house number, only the name, Cheriton. This made it a bit tricky to find - house number is 35B, on Newcastle Street. Please add that to your listing.
Thanks for the feedback .We are sorry if it was difficult to find It is not 35 B If you put 35B into postcode finder it doesn't exist .Cheriton The house is on the right of 35A before the detached house on the right which is 37 Newcastle street We will ask Sykes to put this on the website .Many thanks Diane and Dave Property Owner

"Cheriton is in a perfect location for families with or without dogs."
The property itself is cosy and comfortable with a lovely seperate kitchen and dining room. The bedrooms are comfortable and having a downstairs shower/toilet is great. The upstairs bathroom is good as there is a bath with overhead shower. If taking children or dogs or both the garden is a must, large fully enclosed garden. There is lots to see in the area whether using the car or the local bus. Tuxford itself has two very interesting museums and numerous take aways if you don't want to cook every day. We had a lovely weeks stay and hope to return soon.
Thankyou for your lovely comments It was great to meet you all Hope to see you again Diane and Dave Property Owner

"We all agreed that Cheriton was the best out of many properties that we have stayed at."
-
"We stayed at Cheriton whilst visiting the area for a family wedding."
It was the perfect base and had everything we could possibly need. There was an issue with the plumbing which the owners warned us about and it didn't really cause us a problem. Our car broke down while we were there and they kindly allowed us to stay a couple of hours longer until the AA could get us going again.
Thank you for the feedback hope you have car free problems now enjoy the rest of the summer Property Owner

"Super 3 bed property, welcome items much appreciated, great location for accessing local necessities along with short drive to A1 to visit lots of attractions in the area."

"Loved the place ideal for what we needed , the dogs loved the garden even though it was coverd in frost ,would highly recommend."

"This accommodation was a working holiday for me and my two dogs."
Wifi was perfect. Large dining table perfect to accommodate PC & folders. Plenty of electric heaters, hot water, all cleaning products too! A welcome food pack was also provided. 1 minute walk from very small town but was adequate. 1 minute walk to farm road to let dogs off lead - they didnt enjoy this one though. There was a decent park a few miles away in next town - Thetford i think. 10 min easy drive and park right outside. If i had known this was there, i d have gone there every day. Beautiful park and can let dogs off lead - there is a stream though. Garden was flat and great - totally enclosed. If i could wish for one thing, it would have been for an electric security flood light out the back - so i could see the dogs

"A lovely spacious holiday home, everything you need is provided inc linen & towels ."
The garden is a good size and totally secure for dogs too. There’s plenty to do within 20 minutes drive if you don’t want to venture too far. There’s two shops, a pub and three takeaways, the chippy is good and rubys pizza is ok too . If you’re vegan then it’s not tok difficult to eat here but it’s not too ofvthe lust but we did manage take away and the carpenters arms in walesby is vegan friendly. Rufford abbey and and climber park are worth visiting only 12 miles and are dog friendly too . Also ollerton out woods is 5 miles away which is good for waking the dogs . All in all most places easily accessible, a quiet little village with a relaxed atmosphere. Our hosts were excellent and we wanted for nothing 10 out of 10 .
so glad you had such a positive stay and were able to relax with you dogs Hope you enjoy the rest of summer ,and any future holidays match up to your experience with us Kind regards Diane and Dave Property Owner

"We had a lovely 3 day stay at Cheriton!"
The welcome milk and biscuits was lovely and the information pack couldn’t have had more information! The rooms were great, the kitchen was well stocked with utensils and the garden was fab for our dog, secure and a great size. We took our 10 month old and they owners left out a cot, highchair and there was a stair gate at the bottom too, which was brilliant for peace of mind with our little mover. The village had lots in walking distance and a great range of takeaways for the holiday treat. We’ve said we will definitely return Thanks for a lovely holiday
We are so glad you enjoyed it and made some lovely happy family memories Enjoy the summer Best wishes Diane and Dave Property Owner

"A great holiday, in a great cottage, in a great location."
Couldn't have asked for more. Excellent communication with the owner who was very helpful and informative on places to go and things to do. A wonderful welcome pack was really appreciated on our arrival. The cottage had everything we need and more. Highly recommended and would happily stay again

"Lovely place to stay and close to Sherwood Forest and Lincoln for enjoyable days out."
-
"The house is comfortable and spacious, and the welcome pack of crusty bread, butter, fruit, biscuits etc was a really lovely, thoughtful touch."
The information folder was very helpful, and when we needed to contact Diane the owner, she was quick to respond, and most kind. In the folder she recommended some local places to visit, eateries etc, and we had a great time following her recommendations. A lovely stay!
-
"The property was very well equipped."
The garden was large and secure for our dogs. The owner telephoned on the morning of our arrival to say the house was ready and we could arrive early, which gave us half a day extra. There was a very generous welcome pack.
-
"Outstanding help and support from the owners arranging this break at very short notice."
The house was immaculately clean and well prepared for our arrival. Lovely touches with welcome pack and note on arrival. This was a beautiful well appointed house with a wonderful secure garden for our dog, and fitted with good quality furniture. Although the internet was not working on arrival, it was fixed on our 5th day. Only minor complaint would be that duvets were too heavy for summertime and mattress not very comfortable (i.e.double too hard). Seems a shame to make these small negative comments as the house is great. Would certainly be happy to return.

About the location
TUXFORD
Retford 7.3 miles; Newark-on-Trent 14 miles; Lincoln 17.5 miles.
Tuxford is an old coaching town found in the north of Nottinghamshire, situated between the bustling towns of Newark and Retford. The quaint village was once a hub for travellers and boasted four railway stations, with the St Nicholas Church being the oldest building the town, dating back to the 12th century. Today, it is a great destination for tourists due to its variety of independent shops and attractions. Some of the highlights include a large, working windmill which is open to visitors daily, the Walks of Life handcart museum, which chronicles the history of the town on wheels and the Sally Mitchell Art Gallery and which is set in a wonderful 18th century Posting Inn. As well as the fine art gallery, which has ongoing exhibitions of sporting equestrian and canine art from internationally renowned artists, the Heritage award-winning museum is packed with unusual equestrian items spanning from 600 BC to the 20th Century. The popular Sherwood Forest and City of Lincoln are both easily accessible, proving to be an excellent base for holidaymakers and adventure seekers.
