“We loved our 6 days at the Hayloft.”

We loved our 6 days at the Hayloft. Very friendly hosts, very comfortable accomodation and a perfect location for exploring and walking. As an added bonus it was sunny and hot!

“I enjoyed my stay at the Hayloft ...”

I enjoyed my stay at the Hayloft very much. The owners are so nice, helpful and very friendly and it was so good to be on a working farm.

“The owners were lovely people and ...”

The owners were lovely people and always kind and helpful and we very much enjoyed being on the farm. One problem for us: We were aware that there was a metal staircase up to the Hayloft but both my husband and I found the treads a bit narrow. Because our small terrier was afraid of the open staircase my husband had to carry him up and down, and one morning when it had rained, the stairs were very slippery. However, this may have been a problem particularly for us as we are probably much older than most guests. Otherwise, everything was fine, and we were blessed with beautiful weather, which was helpful.

- Mrs Plaskett, May 2018

Thank you for your kind feedback relating to your stay. I am so glad you enjoyed your stay with us. I am very sorry to hear that you had issues with the stairs being slippery. This has never been an issue in the past as the stairs are slip resistant. However we appreciate your comments and will endeavor to check this. Once again thank you for your feedback. Kind regards, - Sykes owner relations

“Lovely and welcoming hosts. They ...”

Lovely and welcoming hosts. They were extremely helpful and generous. The milk, bread, eggs and fruit were a very welcome and unexpected bonus and much appreciated. It was a true experience of staying on a working farm. The dawn chorus was a deafening experience and there was a wealth of wildlife. This was a real unwind and relaxing holiday. The countryside and walks were fantastic. There were also national trust properties to visit in the area. We were lucky to have good weather. I would definitely return.

“Excellent Location within easy ...”

Excellent Location within easy driving distance for visiting surrounding areas. The Hayloft was comfortable and well equipped compact but light and airy reasonably peaceful as located on a farm you expect some noise but this was not excessive also very relaxing. The owners / Hosts were there if you needed them but not intrusive who made us feel very welcome and the welcome pack of eggs /bread /milk ect. was greatly appreciated. Would definitely return in the future. and recommend to friends and Family.

“The hayloft is very cosy and ...”

The hayloft is very cosy and although it is in the depths of the countryside it doesn't take long to get to a town as the roads are very quiet. What makes it special are the owners who are very friendly and had supplied us with some basic food items when we arrived which in our experience of renting is unusual. They remained helpful and obliging throughout the whole of the holiday. The metal steps up to the accommodation could be a bit of a challenge for anybody with mobility issues especially if they had a dog.
