  The photos of the property on Sykes Cottages site make it appear larger than it is.

  There was a sharp broken tile in the kitchen, a door off its hinges up stairs which was just left leaning against the wall, loose bath panel, poorly repaired sofas which looked horrible, the wheelie bins were full upon our arrival meaning we had nowhere to dispose of rubbish, the chairs at the dining table were in a poor state, there were not 2 washing machines - 1 was a tumble dryer which is actually better, the property was full of left food from previous tenants in the cupboards and fridge, the washing machine had lots of hair in it, I got trapped in the side porch as there is no handle on the inside, the fan in the twin room was thick with dust, female sanitary items were left in the bathroom cabinet, the bottom of the fireplace was hanging off, dog food left in a cupboard, medication left in the kitchen drawer along with syringes (without needles). There was a torn sheet on one of the single beds. I had to wash some of the plates before I could use them as they were dirty, the frying pan was sticky with grease and still had remnants of oil in it. One of the security lights outside lit up the downstairs double bedroom making it difficult to sleep, there was the same problem upstairs in the balcony room as there was no curtain at the window. The hand rail on the steps outside was too big to grip and the rail the other side of the gate couldn't be used as it was all splintered. It was surprising that dogs were not allowed on the furniture as it was all already damaged. All in all, the property was not at the standard the photographs showed, in fact some of it was incredibly dangerous, I feel that I have paid far too much for the stay there and would welcome a partial refund. The property was very clean and comfortable but I will not go again.

  Berry Barn is a delightful hide away.

  The cottage is cosie and warm and comfortable. Beautifully and thoughtfully decorated. It is a home from home. It was a real retreat for us to escape from a busy life. Everything was there that was needed. The owners were so friendly, helpful and accommodating. We had a lovely welcome pack of food, and when we were snowed in we were given extra milk. Nothing was too much trouble. We definitely hope to return as it is handy for visiting family in the area.we found some lovely beaches for bracing walks, enjoyable any time of the year.The village is small and also has an interesting old church. A car is a must as the it is about 4 or 5 miles to a town for shopping and amenities. We loved the peace and quiet it offers as a result of its location. Would highly recommend this holiday home.

  This is a peaceful location but still within easy reach of places to visit.

  Berry Barn was fantastically well-equipped and our host had provided a welcome pack that meant we didn't have to hunt around for a corner shop or supermarket on our first full day, which took the stress out of hunting around for a shop and meant we could concentrate on sightseeing. The fact that we were able to take our 2 small dogs with us was a bonus. The coastal walks and beaches are fantastic. We visited at the end of October '24 and had to find diversions to get to the coast as usual routes to Roman Banks are partially closed due to works. But the coast is well worth a visit and there seemed to be plenty of other attractions to visit.

  The cottage was situated in an attractive country position with good views and walking areas for people and dogs.

  The facilities provided were complete even down to the basic essentials for a first night (assuming the occupants had not bought any groceries beforehand). All areas of the cottage were clean and the areas were roomy with plenty of light. Catie, the owner, could not be more helpful with any requirement we may need that would be classified as a feature of the rental. We found the whole experience contributed to a restful and tranquil week. I would certainly recommend.
