Really did feel like home everyday returning from our adventures to chill the evening in, as very relaxing with comforatble furnture and beds.

"From the moment we arrived at Blantyre Cottage we were really impressed, the arrival process was really easy following a long 8 hour journey from us, the cottage was easy to find, keys easily available and when we opened the doors we were really chuffed."
All the essentials already there for us to use, which saved us the stress of rushing to the shop and meant we could settle the kids properly. Nice outdoor area which caught the sun in the afternoon too! Everything was easy to access, rooms all set up lovely too! The cottage was lovely and clean, had fantastic facilities in throughout including a TV with full now TV which was a lovely surprise as we didn’t realise this when booking and was great for the kids! This is also the first place I’ve stayed which has also provided plates / bowls for children as well as adults meaning we avoided the stress of the kids potentially dropping anything! Location was lovely with shops / takeaways nearby if required. Overall for us this was perfect, we were up to see family who were only 8 minutes around the corner but didn’t have room for all of us! Rest assured you will 100% get another booking from us for next year!

It proved an ideal base for visiting friends and family. Even the sometimes busy adjacent NC500 could prove interesting, sports car, motorcycle and luxury motor home spotting!

It was let down however by arriving to find the cottage had not been cleaned. Despite all the 'blurb 'on the website about extra cleaning requirements due to The Recent Pandemic. This was however quickly rectified after texting the contact number provided, it would have been nice to have had an answer to the text to tell us what was happening and that the cleaners who were very apologetic were on their way. Despite this setback we had a great stay.

This was our first holiday with our dog, it was great to be able to take him with us. The only thing I would say is the garden wall is quite low and would easily be jumped, so we had to make sure he was on a lead when out in the garden. Other than that it was great!

"The cottage was lovely."
Very well appointed and cleaned to a very high standard. However, although it did 'overlook' a golf course this was across an extremely busy road with lots of HGV traffic. This did not make for a peaceful break and made sleeping in very difficult. I would question the scenic walk to the village - heavy traffic and a lot of dog mess. Really feel listings need to be more honest- 2nd time this has happened in a Sykes property.
