  As feedback to improve - No water in morning immersion needs to come on earlier and would benefit a deep clean to clear some cobwebs from ceilings,etc.

  A bit mean on towels we were only 2 in 5 bed received no discount but only 2 towels provided. But generally pleased with accommodation. Owner Response: Thank you for your feedback and comments and to clarify your points: The immersion heater is set to come on 3 times per day, 7am then 3pm and then 9pm to ensure that there is always a tank of hot water. With regards to the deep clean to clear some cobwebs I have raised this with my cleaner and asked her to be more vigilant in future. But by way of an explanation and not an excuse the cottage was built in 1658 and constructed with old material and has wooden beams throughout and we have come to realise that the cobwebs appear on a regular basis. Each guest is provided with one set of towels a bath sheet and hand towel. During our pre-arrival discussion you informed us that there was only going to be 2 guests staying so we provided 2 sets. You made no mention of requiring earlier hot water or extra towels. Also at no time during your stay did you contact either us or Kat to ask for any changes to be made to the cottage set up or that you needed extra towels. With regards to a discount because there was only 2 people that is not Sykes policy you book and pay for the cottage not the number of people staying. Once again thank you for your feedback and I hope to see you again at George Cottage.

  Lovely property in which me and my two friends came to visit!

  The location is very much “in the middle of no where” and the nearest town with shops is 30 minutes away so if you are looking to relax, make sure to bring your own food or arrange for a Tesco delivery. It was a beautiful place and the air feels very fresh. The only thing is that there would be more items available such as washing up powder, and a sponge to clean our plates (more the pans that don’t go in the dishwasher)! The Netflix stopped working on the second night so we resorted to watching the olympics instead, so maybe a guide on how to use the TV would be appreciated. The fridge had a little carton of milk, eggs were provided and a bottle of bubbly (thank you). The owners were very patient whilst we were late checking out and they did not make a fuss so we really appreciated that we were not rushed to leave. Thanks so much, very lovely stay!!!

  Lovely little cottage in a beautiful location, we very much enjoyed our stay.

  The cottage was immaculate with everything you might need. Owner was on hand to meet us and was very welcoming. We had our young dog with us which meant we could take advantage of a secure field behind the cottage. There was lots of recall training to be had which was great. Cottage was dog friendly (bed and treats provided) however we really struggled with the 'no dogs on the furniture or upstairs' rule which our pup found difficult to understand. We might suggest some sort of gate to help stop dogs as we had to fashion one using the kitchen bin! We would also recommend making sure this information is communicated before arrival as the Sykes dog checklist just mentions bringing throws for the furniture which we had done. Overall the cottage was lovely and well placed to access the outstanding Shropshire countryside.

  Rockhill Farm Hay Barn offered the perfect reset for us and our dog Albie.

  The location strikes just the right balance – remote and rural, but still close to convenience. The barn itself is stunning and is equipped with everything you could need for a comfortable stay for two or four people. Each bedroom has ample storage with plenty of hanging space, which was ideal for bulky winter layers in February. The secure outdoor paddock offered us a safe space to exercise Albie, which was a major plus for the property and a very rare find. There are beautiful walks right from the doorstep with a great selection of routes close-by. We walked one day for four hours without meeting a single person. Just what we needed! It's the perfect place to unwind, recharge and enjoy some down time. We loved our stay and would love to return in the future. Thank you for a fantastic and much needed break!

  This was a lovely little place, very clean and tidy.

  Nice touch with the flowers and gifts on arrival. The hot tub was amazing, also very clean. WiFi was great. The 2 seater sofa wasn't very comfortable, so stuck the kids on that one. Place was lovely and warm even when we turned the heating off. There was a smell in the bathroom which we spoke to the owners about and they came straight up and put drain cleaner down and air fresheners in, this helped a little bit and should definitely be looked into. There was one clothes rack provided, maybe another would be good to dry towels as with showers and the hot tub in use everyday hard to dry them. In the summer would be OK as you could dry them on the line. Also the road in is tight and has a few pot holes so be careful with the car you bring. All in this is a great place to say and use again.
