"Lovely cottage in a peaceful and private setting."
The cottage was very clean and comfortable and well appointed with everything you need for a short stay. Lack of a freezer, for me , would be inconvenient if staying longer than three nights. The cottage is spacious and easily accommodated our group of four people without feeling we were getting in each others way, especially when we were all getting ready for a wedding. The village is lovely and the locals very friendly and we loved the very friendly sheep in the field next to the cottage.The local pub was very welcoming and served excellent food. Local walks were good too. All in all we had a lovely time and we enjoyed our stay at Avenue Croft.

"A really lovely cottage, comfortable clean and containing everything one could need for a relaxing week in a beautiful location."
Many interesting places to visit in the locality,but also well equipped for time spent indoors. Great hospitality from Lee and Dawn and loved the friendly welcome from the sheep.Would certainly recommend.

"This is a lovely clean and bright cottage which is very well decorated and cared for."
The owners couldn't do enough for you and the location was beautiful. There was plenty of equipment in the kitchen to cook although I would suggest that they provide a bit more cutlery and plates so you can have a set in the dish washer. The only comment my friends made who were in the twin room was that the sink in the bathroom was too small and the glass shelf needs to be moved. All in all a lovely break and I will certainly recommend this cottage.

"This comment is one for Sykes to consider."
The mattresses for the single beds were too firm for comfort and a good night’s sleep. While bed firmness/softness is a personal matter, it would be helpful for customers of Sykes to have some way of knowing how firm/soft the bedding is for the accommodation they are considering booking. A three or four tier grading would suffice to give some indication, even if some subjectivity is involved, e.g. firm, quite firm, quite soft, soft, should be sufficient. Had this information been available, we would not have booked the Tollerton accommodation as the single beds would be classified as firm. Our friends slept in the double bed so we cannot comment on that one. Other than that, we found the accommodation enjoyable and well appointed.

"Immaculate property and so thoughtfully fitted out for our needs."
The cottage is even more impressive than it looks on the website. Loads to do and see within easy reach yet incredibly peaceful and relaxing. This is the best place we have stayed at home or abroad. Thank you Dawn and Lee for opening up this superior home to us.
Thank you so much for your lovely comments. Maybe you can return again soon Dawn Property Owner

"Avenue Croft is in a lovely setting and is furnished attractively and thoughtfully."
It is in an ideal place to visit Nottinghamshire and enjoy the local countryside. The fixtures and fittings are modern and it is a very practical space to have a comfortable stay. The garden is very quiet and furniture is provided to dine outside. It was very warm weather for our stay,there was a fan provided which was very welcome. The family enjoyed the woolly neighbours!

"We really enjoyed our stay and the cottage was lovely with all modern facilities and spotlessly clean."
It would help to have more of the amenities listed on the website eg hairdryer, DVD player, kettle and toaster. The location was idyllic, and we enjoyed a lovely Sunday lunch at The Plough Inn over the road. Slightly on the downside, we found the cottage rather cold, especially in the lounge area and the 2nd bedroom. Also, we found we were able to hear conversation rather too easily from the owners' house, through the main bedroom and ensuite bathroom walls, which made us feel not quite so private if they were able to hear us as well.
