What our customers say about their holidays

  Overall the house was great and suitable for our extended family with good facilities and decorated for Christmas.

  Few little niggles that took the edge off the holiday. Considerable “wet dog” smell when arrived. Understand dogs allowed at the house before we booked but deodorising after previous guests would be good, not everyone is used to a house smelling of dogs. Bought a fabreeze to try and mask the smell. Kitchen benches and floor not the cleanest along with some of the glasses. Cleaned benches, floor and loaded all glasses and cups into dishwasher to overcome this. Again would have expected better quality of cleaning. Rest of house was fine. Could not find any information in the welcome guide on heating especially with regards to when it comes on/off had to get in touch with Sykes to find out as house extremely cold when arrived. Would be useful to have some simple instructions, found the boost buttons but the downstairs one was faulty. Repaired next day. Very efficient and great service. Overall a good holiday but not a great one.

  Superb cottage in a great location.

  Very well equipped cottage, could be mentioned in property listings as I was unsure what I would need kitchen equipment wise. Decor, quality of appliances, crockery, beds and en suites all excellent. Only let down by quality of welcome pack, sachets of long life milk!!! (a fresh pint of milk would have been much better!) and a starter pack of logs for the fires would have been appreciated. We will definitely be back.

  Returned for a visit to this lovely house.

  We had good weather and did plenty of walks from the door. There are plenty of places to eat in the village all within walking distance. There were however a few housekeeping issues namely the fan oven on the range appears not to be working and the timer is broken. There is no tv remote in the snug and most of the jets in the hot tub are not working.

  We had a wonderful stay at The Gate House, with our two children and their partners (as well as three dogs).

  The house is large, with beautiful appointed rooms and a well equipped kitchen. Being November, we didn’t make use of the spa or rear patio area, but no doubt this space provides a relaxing atmosphere next to the adjacent babbling stream. In all, this is a lovely house and well situated for walks, local pub/restaurants and shops.

  We have stayed at the Gate House before this upgrade, it is a beautiful property.

  This stay did not disappoint and the addition of the hot tub made the long walks in cold wet January well worth it. A few minor comments, pillows are a little hard and lumpy, mugs not clean and probably my biggest negative comment is no logs or sticks when we arrived. Other than that a lovely stay.
