The Pig Shed -Sty 2

Thankyou Peter and Paula for letting us stay at your wonderful property,you’ve thought of everything for a comfortable stay, the pigshed has everything you need, also beautiful garden, views and a very relaxing hot tub.

We will definitely be returning. Thankyou Paula

We really enjoyed our stay at the Pig Shed, it had everything you needed for a cosy, comfortable home from home break.

The beds were really comfortable and the showers amazing. Loved sitting in the fabulous hot tub and having a cup of tea in the garden, taking in the beautiful views. The garden was perfect for our little Westie to run around safely. We found this a really great comfy base to explore the beautiful Cotswold villages and countryside and although, the weather wasn’t always on our side we had a comfortable home to come back to each night and an excuse to light up the log burner and get cosy. Looking forward to a return visit soon.

Ideal quiet getaway with added bonus of hot tub and beautiful views of the rolling countryside.

The Pig Sty 2 was extremely well equipped and had everything you could need for a short stay. The welcome pack was much appreciated upon arrival.

We had a wonderful stay at The Pig Shed Sty 2 - the accommodation exceeded expectations - modern, spacious and comfortable - and the views from the hot tub are stunning.

The hosts were friendly and helpful without intruding, and we were grateful for our welcome treats - thank you. The peaceful stay gave us exactly the rest and relaxation we were looking for and we will absolutely return. It’s a beautiful area with countryside views - we recommend the circular walk around the Malvern Hills.

Beautiful cottage in a beautiful peaceful location with fantastic views.

If you enjoy solitude this is the place to stay. Lovely bonus was the lovely welcome pack. Lots of information in the cottage on local places to visit and walks you can do. Great sitting in the hot tub watching the swallows and listening to the sounds of the birds. Saw bats at night while watching the sunset. Roads up to the cottage very narrow with very few passing places luckily very quiet and we managed only to bump into one car in the whole week. Ok for my husband but I am not confident in reversing any great distance especially around blind corners. No shop or pub in walking distance, we did find a circular walk with the dog across the fields, lots of sheep again stunning scenery. We got off to a bad start with the owners who live on site. We travelled with our 2 sons aged 33 and 35. It was my sons birthday and his best friend and wife and 10 week old baby lived 50 mins away so we invited them and his parents (pensioners) who lived 40 mins in the opposite direction for a bbq. Nowhere on the listing did it say you couldn’t invite day visitors we didn’t know that this was a rule or in the terms and conditions? I booked using the Sykes App and have looked again but can’t see anything about this? Apart from this misunderstanding probably on our behalf owners were very helpful and there if you needed any help or advice

We have just got back from a wonderful 4 nights family getaway stay at The Pig Shed.

The property was perfect in every way. The owners had thought of everything to make your stay as enjoyable and as comfortable as they could. The hot tub was a great way to unwind at the end of the day with a magical view. We would highly recommend this wonderful place to stay.

Our stay was really great all the facilities where brilliant especially the hot tub even our dog felt at home.

It was very clean and I felt the beds were very comfortable and great quality the views were stunning will recommend to all our friends

Wonderfully quiet location, with a flower filled garden and lovely views across the valley.

Clean comfortable accommodation. Everything we needed. Our only gripe was lack of storage in the bathrooms. Other than that...perfect. Would definitely recommend.

What a wonderful place, nice welcome pack containing some local items.

Very clean and a good selection of equipment. The views are great but even more spectacular when sat in the hot tub. A lovely stay and a lovely greeting from the owner

Very clean, comfortable and welcoming property.

A kind gift from the owners on arrival.

Lack of shelving in the bathrooms for toiletries.

No heated towel rail in the bathrooms making the drying of towels impossible. No mirror in the bedroom for ladies to make up and dry hair etc. No socket easily accessible for hair dryer in the bedroom. We were not sure if the under floor heating was working as the floor was always cold.

Very clean , and had all you need , very comfortable beds

We had an amazing stay.

The pig shed was high spec and was in a lovely setting. The owners were very helpful when we had a problem with our car. The whole holiday was one to remember.

Brilliant break everything was fantastic

The property was very clean, well maintained and had everything we needed for our weekend stay.

The added bonus of the Hot Tub was great too

The holiday cottage was everything as listed we loved the area & really good re dogs in the cottage - The only thing worth mentioning is the livestock dogs must stay on leads and at this time of year we had to travel to away from property or to Wyer Forest to let dogs have a run.

The holiday cottage was perfect.

Stunning location. Everything you could need for a perfect relaxed holiday.

Lovely place and set in a lovely area, owners welcomed us and then left us alone which was nice, we new where they was if needed.

All in all a lovely Mon-Fri, great weather too which always helps….. Defo recommend.

We really enjoyed our stay at The Pigsty , all the facilities were first class , comfy beds , fabulous views, hot tub and star gazing !

!! We were really lucky with the April weather which made it even better than expected ! Thankyou for the warm welcome P and P

The property was everything the listing promised; very clean, comfortable and cosy.

We appreciated the welcome pack from Pete and Paula. Pete was waiting for us on arrival and let us know they would be available if we had any problems, which we didn't. The hot tub was lovely and warm after the first night and the kitchen cupboards provided everything we needed for a comfortable stay. We were glad that Pete warned us of the muddy conditions on the local footpaths and so we chose to go further afield for our walks. We would recommend the property to anyone who wants a comfortable cottage holiday in a lovely part of the country. Thanks to Pete and Paula for making the Pig Shed - Sty 2 such a lovely home from home.

Hello, the property was lovely, surprised we did not see the owner, it was thoughtful to be left milk, juice and a packet of biscuits.

The hot tub I think was to full because there were no bubbles, the jets were not powerful as if blocked? The following day when we came to use the tub it was full of scum and bits!, it had not been cleaned like it said it would Caroline

We had a 3 night stay ,family of 3 , my wife ,daughter of 10 years old , myself and our 2 dogs.

The pig shed was immaculate, vey clean and very nicely decorated to a modern look. The beds were excellent, and showers were good too. The views out the fenced off garden were very nice indeed. We loved the hot tub . When we arrived the owner left us some fresh eggs and milk and had a jar of treats for the dogs , that was a very nice gesture. The only little thing that I thought could be improved would be some more comfortable garden furniture to sit out on while watching the sunset . We all enjoyed our short stay, very peaceful and beautiful location and accommodation. I would recommend to anyone looking for a few relaxing days away .

Just perfect will go back

We had a fantastic time at the pig sty, which gave us a great base to explore from.

The swing seat was an added bonus to watch the sunset :)

We had a wonderful relaxing week at the Pig Shed.

The property had picturesque views all around over rolling country side. We throughly enjoyed the peace and tranquility of the surrounding area which was needed for our weeks stay. The property had all the amenities in it that we required for our stay. The beds were lovely and comfortable, felt like we were in a luxury hotel and the two showers were very spacious. We had a small issue with the hot tub but Peter soon came out and the issue was resolved straight away he couldn’t of been more helpful.. Would highly recommend anyone to stay at the pig shed.

A beautiful setting and the accommodation has a lovely homely feel.

Fully equipped kitchen with plenty of storage, comfortable roomy beds (high hotel style), nice showers, lovely sofas and the added bonus of a hot tub with amazing views. We could quite easily live there, a perfect rural retreat. The owners Peter & Paula are very friendly and so are the locals. There are public footpaths/bridleways close to the property and plenty of places to visit by car in the area. Really enjoyed Ludlow, a historic town with a castle

What a fabulous place to stay, lots of space, beautiful gardens, deer, rabbits and lots of birds !

Host greeted us on arrival very friendly with lots of local information as well as a huge set of resources on local places of interest in the house. House was excellent, clean and well equipped with everything we needed.

First of all, the holiday cottage was 5 STAR and couldn't fault the accommodation.

Frankly although the cottage was beautiful and also the area we didn't find it good for dog walking, walking on the roads to access areas where we could exercise the dog could be dangerous. I certainly had to keep my wits about me with blind bends and cars travelling too fast for the conditions. Most of the surrounding fields contained sheep, I found access/right of way blocked off and I couldn't get over the style myself, never mind having a dog? This location is more suited for ramblers I'd say. One observation, I'd let anyone booking with Sykes cottages know about £68.00 booking fee up front. This wasn't mentioned until I was confirming to booking. The location, Tenbury was our saving grace finally somewhere we could let the dog off the lead as he's trained. Finally thank you to Peter and Paula, beautiful cottage, very comfortable.

We felt a hair dryer and iron/ironing board is an everyday essential which they didn't have.

Cleaning equipment not adequate...could have done with a few more clothes t towels etc...together with a couple of clean mopheads...as one that was there was dirty. Also could have some cleaning fluid for the floors. We were sent to another cottage in the area via satnav so maybe specific detail guiding you to the cottage as picture on your site is of the back view not the view you see on arrival.

This was a wonderful holiday The accommodation was very clean and you had everything you needed.

Very quiet and private the jacuzzi was the perfect relaxing with views and sunsets .

Better lighting on patio

We stayed at the pig shed sty 2 we had a great few days nice and relaxing Met the owners Peter and Paula .

Could not fault anything very clean and comfortable Home from Home .we took our Toy cockapoo Benji .he had plenty of walks .will definitely book again . Sheila &Bob & Benji

Great stay at pig sty 2.

Great area to stay and we hope to be back to explore some more. The condition of the property was lovely and some nice touches throughout making it a very homely stay. Beds were comfy and everything you need to have a relaxing time is provided. Only small issue we had was the security light was on and off all night which would shine in the front bedroom window (we put a blanket over the window which helped). There were dog towels and blankets supplied on arrival which was also a nice bonus. Hot tub was very clean and hot on arrival and the views were great from the garden area. Good showers also in the property. The owner was friendly and introduced herself when we arrived. Highly recommended and it is certainly a hidden gem in the Worcestershire countryside.

Very enjoyable stay.

Nice views and a very quite location. Relaxing in the hot tub watching all the animals was lovely.

Thoroughly enjoyed our stay at the Pig Shed sty 2.

Immaculate throughout with everything you needed. Extremely comfy sofa’s and bed’s. Views from the property are amazing both during the day and in the evening. Lots of wildlife to observe. Very appropriate with it being Easter seeing the bunny family every day. We loved watching the sunset and star gazing from the hot tub. We would definitely be happy to return. We didn’t get to meet the owners but had excellent communication with them via both text and email.

Hi Unfortunately we had to leave on Tuesday as the accomodation proved unsuitable for my mom who is partially diasabled.

She found it very difficult to get up from the sofas as they were very low down and even more difficult to get in and out of the beds as they are extremely high up! myself and my sister also struggled to get onto the beds, I have never has this problem before! The point of requesting a Barn was so that we had no stairs etc to negotiate, but never in a million years would have thought about the height of the beds. I spoke to Paula on our departure who just said they were hotel quality beds and couldnt do anything about them and if we had asked she could have provided a step! this I thought was very unfair as had my mom used it and it slipped then we could potentially had been looking at a broken hip. I think this needs to be addressed in the details to avoid this happening to anyone else and spoiling their holiday as well.

Stunning and quiet location.

Very relaxing feel to the lodge. Very helpful information pack. Super clean. Lovely owners. Perfect location if you like walks. Overall, if a relaxing break is what you want, this is a place to stay at.

Pig Sty 2 Feb 10th -17th Location – wonderful views across the Teme Valley – we had some glorious sunsets.

The living space is generous with very comfortable beds, although they were excessively high and the very efficient castors caused us some problems. The large showers were good yet due to the high step a handle to help enter and leave them, would have been useful. The kitchen is well equipped with adequate utensils and a very generous selection of glassware. Our booking was for 7 nights and after 4 nights we asked for fresh towels. No was the reply! We were disappointed by this as other places we have stayed have made this possible or there has been laundry facilities available for us to refresh them ourselves. The spa was most enjoyable however we were unaware of any daily maintenance being carried out even when we were there all day.

The booking procedure was easy and we were provided with regular emails leading up to our visit with lots of information.

The cottage was spotless when we arrived and we were greeted by a very helpful Paula, who provided lots of information for areas to walk the dog and the best places to park in the town. It was peaceful and comfortable and provided everything we needed for a nice quiet weekend. It was lovely to be able to relax in the hot tub and The views are stunning. We did try to go out for dinner on the Saturday evening with the dog but unfortunately most places were booked, so I would suggest planning ahead and booking for weekend dinners or Sunday lunches. Apart from that, we had an amazing time and would highly recommend this property. Thankyou Peter & Paula

We really enjoyed staying at the Pig Shed.

The place was spotless, comfortable and relaxing. The area is beautiful with plenty of places to visit. The owners are friendly and helpful . We highly recommend .

Our second visit to the Pig Shed and we’ve lived every minute.

The photos on the website don’t do it justice. It’s beautiful and sooo comfortable ! It has everything you could need. Don’t hesitate .. get booking, you won’t be disappointed!

Excellent for a quiet relaxed vacation.

The property was well equipped and living accommodation was comfortable. The beds were extremely comfortable and the showers were absolutely fabulous. One of our party of 4 ventured into the hot tub and thoroughly enjoyed it although the weather was not brilliant when we visited, weather permitting the tub would have been in use daily!! We certainly can recommend the property for complete peace and quiet.

An fabulous, luxurious and extremely comfortable property….

We had so much fun & relaxation. The view is staggering, the owners are friendly but respect guests privacy. We booked a 2nd stay while we were still there.

All ready recommend to a neighbour.

We had a lovely stay. It is very clean with every comfort for your stay. Set in very peaceful and beautiful surroundings.

This is a little gem, the view is absolutely soul lifting.

The welcome basket and half a dozen eggs was lovely. The owners were very amenable. The hot tub was serviced when we were out. The super king beds were wonderful. The peace and tranquility was very welcome along with the wildlife. We had a fabulous Sunday lunch at Pembroke House. We would highly recommend a visit and we will definitely be back.

Needs a new tin opener couldn't open salmon had to bring it back home.

Some glasses were chipped and cut lip. Glass was left in the cupboard.

Great place, fantastic views.

Had a wonderful stay

An excellent place to stay.

Beautifully decorated and extremely relaxing. Everything is catered for and thought of by Peter and Paula. I can’t recommend the pig sty enough. Will definitely be back again.

We stayed in Sty 2 with the hot tub.

Lovely cabin and absolutely beautiful location! It is remote, but that's the reason we wanted to go there. (Do your research rather than moaning about something you failed to notice). The property was very clean on arrival, no complaints. The welcome hamper was a nice touch and it was good that disherwasher tablets, cloths and tea towels were left. Good sized fridge with a small freezer compartment too. The living kitchen area is a really good size and furniture could be moved around easily to make more space. The log burner was lovely and really easy to get a fire started. The only thing we really didn't like were the mattresses, both beds were uncomfortable but the room without the en suite really needs replacing ASAP. Also, the garden is a lot smaller than it looks in the picture, but this was fine because of the amount of fields and country lanes nearby to walk the dog. I didn't realise the property is a semi detached on booking, luckily we didn't hear much from next door other than a few barks from their dog. The garden could be more private for the hot tub side, if next door were in their garden they would be staring right at you, lucky for us we barely saw the other occupants. We enjoyed a well needed few days away, thanks

A gorgeous property with more than just the essentials.

Attention to detail was great and the owners were so accommodating from the off set. Would definitely recommend staying here.

We stayed at this property during August 2021 and must admit we were rather disappointed.

The interior of the property was very nice, however the outside space was very small, not at all what the pictures suggested as there was wire fencing immediately behind the hot tub, rendering the outdoor space very tiny. Also the partition between the two holiday lets was poor and very impersonal! It was pointed out by our next door hosts that we could have used the owners personal gardens, however this was not fully explained to us. When we stayed here we took our well behaved dog, unfortunately we left him in the property after our arrival (as we needed to go grocery shopping as the property is self catering and we had driven 4 hours), but within 10 minutes of leaving the property I received a very curt text from the owner telling me to immediately return to the property as I had broken the terms and conditions of our holiday rental - sadly something which I have never experienced before when staying in numerous properties with a dog. Please note that owners check the hot tub daily between 11am-1pm, which I personally found extremely intrusive - and this was not mentioned on the instructions when booking. The owners also shut the gates to the parking area (immediately infront of the property) by 8pm. Sadly my experience of this property poor and not as listed, we so I left early. Sadly we did not enjoy my stay at this property at all and would not return. Very disappointing!

due to remoteness of property difficult to find property sat navs dont register very scary when farmers have right of way did visit 3 NT properties & malvern hills &Longish trip to bourton on water & adam henson farm in cotwolds beauiful days great days out , would recommend Legges nr coop in bromyard fantastic food / meats (STEAK) plenty of good pubs

Fabulous place to stay , lovely hosts and so many beautiful places to visit - we loved it

Would like to say beautiful place and wonderful views, shame there wasn’t a bit more privacy with the neighbours, especially when in the hot tub, would also recommend they have a umbrella outside, it gets very hot, also if it rains for the hot tub.

We did enjoy our stay but would have liked more privacy outside.

Beautiful accommodation for 4 adults and a dog.

Couldn’t fault anything. Stunning rural area truly relaxing watching wildlife from the hot tub. Hosts were helpful and friendly. Accommodation was lovely and perfect for exploring the area.

The booking process was very easy and the app very useful.

Checking in was super slick and the cottage was gorgeous, well equipped, clean from top to bottom.

This place was absolutely fabulous.

Modern, clean in a lovely location with plenty to do and the star of the place was the wood burner. When it’s cold outside, what could be more inviting than watching a wood burner whilst drinking your favourite tipple. We had a great weekend

Nice place to stay.

The hot tub was great nice temperature.

Beautiful view from the living room and jacuzzi.

.. lovely walks on the doorstep. Dogs and humans enjoyed the lovely peaceful break we had.

Just returned from a lovely break, beautiful setting with wonderful views and very clean.

Cutlery needs review (ie no tea spoons.

Desert spoons were large enough to be table spoons). Wall clock would be nice? Otherwise all good.

Easy to book and answered any questions quickly.

Property was very spacious, clean and owners kept in contact the week before and on the day to give details and key collection. The barn is in a beautiful part of the country, peaceful with amazing views. You will not be disappointed

Lovely place.

Very comfortable and the owners were lovely and were in hand if you needed anything. Kitchen modern and the it was clean and tidy. Beds were very comfortable and there was plenty of space.

Just returned from a few well deserved days away.

What can we say other than WOW!! The place is gorgeous and has a real modern homely feel to it. The fire was a big bit from us! The hot tub is also a great feature especially star gazing with a bottle of fizz. We even saw a shooting star. The sheds (although resemble nothing of the sort) are located in a very peaceful and quiet part of the area perfect for walking and hiking. The host themselves where also great. Lovely greeting upon arrival and on hand to offer any recommendations or help along the way. Would highly recommend and would certainly return. Thank you.

When we first arrived we were very kindly greeted by Peter and Paula whom were very lovey!

The property was beautiful and very cosy! The log burner was already made up for us which was a lovely touch. However when we went to get into the hot tub it was not up to temperature so we had gone out for dinner to the Pembrooke which was more than we could have asked for! It was Delicious and beautiful!! However the hot tub has taken till 6am the next morning however from then it was lovely! However we were compensated by this and received a later check out time which was a very kind gesture. Negatives, -we did take a couple of our own towels which we are glad about as we had one big Towel and a small towel each for the duration of our stay. -no throws were provided to protect the sofas from dog hairs which i found strange as it’s a dog friendly property, luckily we packed our own throws. -in the photos the garden looked so much bigger which was great as we took our dog with us however when we arrived the garden had been sectioned off and a small section was allocated for our lodge, I believe it looked like herbs and vegetation was being grown the other side of the chicken wire however on a POSITIVE note the lovely couple who owned the property allowed me to walk my dog in their paddock the other side of their house. Overall we had a lovely stay the property ticked all our boxes and enjoyed it thoroughly! We would highly recommend this, would be perfect in the summer!

We had a really lovely girlie break.

The cottage is Amazing, lovely interior with everything you could need. The view from the hot tub was the icing on the cake, so beautiful and peaceful. Just what we were looking for and more! Will be recommending to everyone. ☺

When we arrived the owners came out and introduced themselves to us and shown us round Sty 2 .

We were so pleased that we had booked this as it was imaculate inside . The heated floor throughout was so cosy. It also had a log burner with extra logs incudes. Stepping outside into the garden was a large hotub wich we tried out three evening gazing up it the stars above. We spent 7 nights here and will definitely be returning in the near future. Such a hidden gem. 100% 5×.

why when I search sleeps Two on your website do I get cottages that sleep 6,8,10,12,16,20 and I Have to go to 10-12 pages to find the 10- 12 that fitted search.

Loved are break away.

Such a beautiful place and lovely areas around you to go and explore. We will deffinatly be back! The Owners were very welcoming. There was alot of thoughtful touches including some treats for our dog! We will 100% recommend and be back
