  • "The cottage is lovely and wonderful, and I would happily stay there again."

    It is well kept, and cozy (given a dump of snow while I was there). But I would not book through Sykescottages which inundates you with totally unnecessary endless emails before and after.

    Dear John, I am really pleased that you enjoyed your holiday and that you got some snow! Thank you so much for taking the time to write a review and I hope you come to stay at some point in the future. Best wishes, Huw Property Owner

  • "Such a great stay at your beautiful cottage Huw."

    Loved everything about it! So relaxing and peaceful and all the neighbours were so friendly. Really enjoyed sitting in the recliner by the fire reading whilst listening to the birds in the bushes outside. Loved your ‘Welcome’ note with the bit about you living in Africa and Egypt and the many touches from this time in the cottage. A real home from home! Thank you

    Dear Jan, Thank you so much for your lovely comments. I am thrilled and touched you had such a lovely time at Yew Tree! It means a lot that you love it as much as I do! I hope you stay again. Best wishes, Huw Property Owner
