"We had a wonderful stay at the annex this winter."
The cottage was warm, cozy and clean and the bed was lovely. All we needed was there. We loved sitting near the woodstove. The owners are very nice and helpful people. It’s amazing to see and hear all the birds in front of the house, white doves, chickens, guinae fowl! The last ones were sleeping at the tree near the big statue of the bison! So lovely to see! A few minutes walk and you are in a beautiful, mysticall, enchanted small forest. You can also make a beautiful farmwalk and see deer. The bison now were in the barn, but when we were at the campsite in may and september you could see them walking at the hillsite. We also love the donkey and the small goats. You can have a lovely stay all the year round. We are looking forward to our next stay!

"Had another lovely stay in the annexe , everything just perfect for a very relaxing get away ,sadly the wildlife pond had dried up but still lots of animals visited the private garden and in the evening we sat by the farm lake ."
The walk around the farm and woods is beautiful we saw the bision and calfs and even a baby elk ,the wildflowers looked lovely with lots of different butterflies.
The cottage is comfortable and was quite cool in the heatwave the conservatory was very hot but with both doors open was ok ,the wi fi is much better this year.
There is a little farm shop on site selling fresh eggs and a few other item .
Colin and Pepe the owners are lovely and make you feel very welcome we just love staying on this working farm and already missing the noisy gunifowl and cockerills .

"On the plus side, very welcoming and friendly hosts."
Amazing site with interesting walks, animals, table tennis. The garden and nature pond were fabulous and the bed was really comfortable and clean.
However, contrary to anything that is written or said, there is no Wifi.
The property has areas, including the open roof space, which have not been cleaned, and there were mice. (Host provided a mouse trap.)
The very basic kitchen had a two-ring electric hob and a kettle - both of which cut out constantly, meaning that cooking and even boiling water were impossible.
We enjoyed visiting the area, and if the faults in the annex were put right it would be a nice place to stay.

"The accommodation was very comfortable and the hospitality warm and welcoming."
The lack of internet access was an issue, even our mobile hotspots struggled to work, though to be expected with the remote setting; a true escape on the positive side.
Bush Farm is a Bison farm but if you hope to see Bison close up you may be disappointed, those visible were consistently clustered together about 150 metres from the fence accessible to visitors. A pair of lovely donkeys though offered some compensation.
We used the accommodation as a base, and this offered good access to several counties and their attractions.
Overall, some drawbacks but in the main a lovely break.

"Although the accomodation provided at the Annex was adequate for two people it had not been cleaned properly."
We were particularly concerned with regard to Coronavirus and had been assured by the owner that she would take special care. Unfortunately this was not the case and we had to spend several hours on arrival cleaning everywhere especially the kitchen and bathroom. The conservatory was in quite a dilapidated state and the washing machine leaked although we did not use it and the floor had not been cleaned for a long time. Much of the furniture had not been moved for a long time and there was a lot of accumulated dirt. The sitting room and kitchen were open to the rafters and this area was cloaked in dirt and spiders and webs - not conducive to a relaxed atmosphere. We were told that WIFI was available but this did not work and according to other guest comments had not been available for some time. In the absence of a mobile phone signal this was particularly inconvenient and we were unable to contact our family or make online bookings at this time of Covid restrictions. It was very disappointing because the annex was on an interesting site within the farm with walks around.
We have used Sykes cottages before and have found them to be perfectly satisfactory and this was not up to the standard expected. We would like to know what instructions you give to owners with regard to the current situation and if inspections are carried out.
