• "This was our second stay at 6 George Yard, Burford."

  The cottage is very comfortable, well appointed with good amenities and the instruction book very helpful. The location could not be better - close enough to the High Street but far enough away not to be bothered by street noise. Our only complaint: we couldn't stay longer.

  The cottage was very comfortable and had almost everything we needed for the stay. The only thing that was lacking was kindling for the log burner and only 1 log was provided.

  Thank you for your feedback. We are pleased that you enjoyed George Yard and the location of it. Best wishes, Manor Cottages Property Owner

  The cottage has everything you need for a comfortable stay and feels like a home away from home. It was lovely and clean, and had everything we needed. The log burner was great in the evenings. Would definitely recommend and would come back if we ever visited again.

• "A very cosy, comfortable and warm cottage."

  Very tastefully decorated and furnished. Enjoyed the log burner every evening. Although no parking we never struggled to park in Sheep Street whatever time of day we returned. Our only small moan is not being able to get in till 6pm-too late. I would suggest having a touch on arrival in the winter to be able to see the keybox- there is no outside light on the front of the cottage.The location is fabulous, less than a minute to the High Street with its independent shops, cafes, restaurants and pubs. Plenty to see and do in the surrounding area. A week is not long enough. Highly recommend.

  Hi Carole Many thanks for your kind comments. We are delighted that you enjoyed your stay at George Yard. I take your point about the light situation for the key safe and will try to rectify that. I did try to contact you on the day of your arrival to advise you that you could have checked in at 2.00 pm but unfortunately I did not have a mobile number for you just a land line. We look forward to welcoming you back to George Yard in the future. Regards Barry & Mandy Property Owner

• "Beautifully decorated and maintained property situated off the High Street."

  Easy access to all shops, restaurants and pubs within a secluded courtyard. Although you cannot park by the property, easy access for spaces along Sheep Street a 1/2 minute walk away. Very comfortable bed and all essential provided. A bottle of wine and fresh flowers as a welcome was a lovely touch. As was the telephone call from Barry to let us know we could get into the property a little earlier. All in all, another splendid visit with Sykes.

  Thank you for providing this lovely feedback. We're delighted you enjoyed your stay and all the local amenities. We look forward to welcoming you again. Property Owner

  It was very clean and comfortable with a lovely atmosphere. Everything functioning as it should, furnished in a style that befitted the age of the cottage. A nice bunch of roses and bottle of wine to greet. A nice touch was the call on the day to say the cottage was ready earlier than advertised. Would visit again.

• "First of all, thank you so much for a lovely stay and for the wine, milk and Poinsettia, we had a lovely Christmas break in your charming cottage and felt very much at home."

  We were wondering how warm the cottage would be as it had storage heating but we weren’t at all cold although we only discovered the heater instructions as we were leaving as someone had shoved them in amongst the “walking “ info, fortunately we managed to suss it out. The only other negative was that the contract cleaners need to do a more in-depth clean/ carry out proper checks between changeovers; in particular, in the kitchen - some of the cutlery and utensils weren’t clean and there was a build up of hair and other debris both in the utensils drawer and the cutlery tray so I had to wash and clean everything before cooking anything. Similarly, although the bath, washbasin, taps, shower screen and toilet were perfectly clean there were ‘forgotten’ areas in bathroom where there was again a build up of debris and grime on the tiling around bath and wooden boxing in of pipes and tiles under towel rail; they hadn’t been wiped over in a while. Sykes rightly remind guests to leave the property as they found it but in our case it was left cleaner - we stayed from 22nd to 29th December. Hope you don’t mind this honest feedback, we just mean to be helpful . We would gladly stay again, we chose your property over others for its charm, character and of course you have to have a cosy wood burner at Christmas. Many thanks, Kate and David Gurmin

  Thank you for your feedback. We are pleased that you enjoyed your stay in our cottage over the Christmas break. Your comments regarding the cleanliness have been noted and as a result we intend to carry out a thorough clean of the cottage especially in the areas you mentioned.. We apologies for any inconvenience this may have caused you during your stay and we thank you for bringing this to our attention. We hope to welcome you back to George Yard again in the future.

• "Comments were left in the visitors book for the owner to look at."

  We were particularly interested in the old furniture and wall hangings and would have liked some information as to their origins. The cottage was really cosy and warm and the owner had kindly left us milk and wine plus fresh flowers in the property. A lovely touch.

  thank you kind comments. I am glad you enjoyed your stay in 6 George Yard. The furniture and wall hangings throughout the cottage are mainly antiques as I used to be in the antiques business and thought that the cottage needed some character. If you wanted any information on anything particular I would be happy to supply any information I can. Kind regards Barry Property Owner

• "Cottage is cosy , homely and compact."

  . perfect for a couple. The antique bed is gorgeous and very comfortable ( and the mirror in the bedroom not only makes you look taller but slimmer too! ) Great location off High Street. Burford is a beautiful town and you’re spoiled for choice for eating, drinking and shopping. Train to Oxford and London Paddington from Kingham just 20 mins drive away. Owner left some lovely wine, flowers and wine which was nice touch and the Co-op just through the close and a couple of shops down was great for essentials. Can highly recommend.

• "The location was absolutely perfect and a stone throw from Main Street."

  I’m a cleanliness freak and this property was brilliantly clean and that was even by my standards. The standard of cleanliness throughout the whole cottage was extremely high. There was everything in the property that you could ever need for self catering. The bed was the most comfortable that I’ve ever slept on when away. The bedding was obviously of good quality and smelled lovely. This cottage is lovely and I’d recommend it to anyone looking for a home from home. We loved it there (especially as we could pop to Huffkins for breakfast)!. Parking was difficult at times due to time of year. Mostly we parked in main car park down the hill and walked up. On the day of vacating property we loaded the car up at the designated area. We then drove up the little lane to go home and met a car coming towards us (driven by elderly man who lives next door to number 6). He has a parking spot near to his home at the end of lane by barrier. There is no room for two cars and we ended up having to reverse right the way back down the lane to where we loaded up because the other car wouldn’t reverse just a tiny bit to let us through. It was a shame he treated us like that at the end of the holiday but maybe he just gets fed up of parking issues. On dull days we found the cottage was a little chilly . There are however electric heaters if needed but I didn’t like to use them in summer.
