• "The photos do not do this cabin justice!"

  As soon as we walked in we realised how lucky we were to have found such a beautiful place to stay for the weekend! We loved it that much we have actually booked it again for next year and with an extra night!

• "This is a good barn conversion, adequately furnished."

  A reclining chair would be useful for older and more infirm persons.

• "This was a lovely property and even better than on the photos listed."

  Some lovely treats left for us as well as milk and tea and coffee. The fire was laid up ready for us too. We gave Lindsay a call about a couple of issues and the response was really quick and they were sorted in no time, a lovely friendly lady. Would definitely look at visiting again.

• "Possibly says it all that it was our third year running that we stayed at a Bushmills ."

  It’s a wonderfully comfortable house in a quiet but beautiful location. Extremely well equipped and thought out. If it’s important to other visitors the mobile signal is poor but the wifi decent. I can’t imagine we won’t be back.

• "Great week of summery weather."

  A pleasure to enjoy the sunrise whilst having breakfast outside. Lovely rural location with lots of superb walking nearby. Games room and BBQ added to our enjoyment of Bushmills. Bit odd that Bushmills was set up as if COVID was still a significant threat, and a sad reminder of tough times we’d put behind us. Overall, Bushmills worked very well for us. Would happily book it again for a summer holiday.

• "We had a lovely week with the whole family (9) at Bushmills."

  It is very spacious and comfortable and the garden was ideal for 3 small children. A little remote but that didn't stop us having days out and enjoying the countryside. Plenty of parking, lovely welcome touches...milk, cider, snacks and flowers provided by the host who was very prompt in answering queries. The view was amazing and it was so peaceful! Loved our time at National Trust - The Weir and also Raglan Farm and Hay on Wye...picnic at The Warren and paddling in the river.

• "Bushmills was a great location and size for our family group of 8 adults."

  The views from the house are stunning especially of the rainbows which kept appearing because of showery weather! The cyclists and runners amongst us loved being able to access quiet country lanes and footpaths so easily. 3 nights wasn't long enough though!

• "A very well equipped property which had been thoroughly cleaned."

  Located in a beautiful area we were occupied for the week with walks and visits to multiple tourist locations not too far away including the Black and White village trail, Black Mountains, Hay on Wye and Hereford. Some uninvited guests including a couple of bats enlivened our stay but, hey, it's the countryside. The games room was an added bonus.

  ! Even better than we imagined, the pictures don’t do this gorgeous property justice. It’s beautiful! Everything was so clean, we had all the facilities and kitchen equipment that we needed and more, which is a huge bonus when there’s 8 of you!

• "We had a wonderful holiday in this beautifully converted and located property."

  It’s very spacious ,well equipped and thoughtfully laid out. The views are stunning and we were lucky enough to see a pair of Red Kites circling above on our first morning. It is a quiet area of Herefordshire but not far from Hereford or Hay on Wye. Dore Abbey is worth a look and there are some lovely old church’s nearby including the fascinating and beautifully located one at nearby Bacton. We enjoyed some competitive table tennis in the games room and ignore any grumbles in early reviews about the WiFi . It’s been upgraded and is excellent. Hope to go back . Ideal for families or groups of friends .

• "Overall this is a great place to stay!"

  - Very well kept, clean and very cosy in the winter (underfloor heating helps!). The owner is also really friendly and great to deal with. As much as I don't want to complain about anything, I think there are a few things that could be done to make this the best place we've stayed in and somewhere we would come back to EVERY YEAR! My friends and I go cycling in Wales every year. We are a group of (mature) guys, either 4 or 5 strong. The places we return to have a games room (which Bushmills has, HOWEVER IT STATES ON THE ADVERT THAT THERE IS A POOL TABLE AND THERE IS NOT ONE! - Which was actually disappointing given its one of the reasons we picked it), somewhere to store bikes (again covered), has a decent TV and Sky for the evenings (Bushmills does not have) and decent internet, as there or 4 or 5 of us trying to get on line when we are in the house (something Bushmills really lacks). Whilst I understand that some rural places don't have great internet, we find plenty of places in the local area that do, so it doesn't feel like that should be the reason Bushmills lacks. Its that bad I would even suggest either removing "WiFi" from the advert, or at least explain to people that it is next to useless. (dial up speed only).

• "We went away for my mum’s 60 th birthday."

  Everything we needed was at the cottage! There were plenty of kitchen utensils, cutlery, pans, cups, lively Prosecco glasses! Washing up liquid, bin bags and tea towels. There was a box of toys for he children, plenty of extra bedding, fans as it was very hot while we were there. Toilet roll and hand wash also available. So we had a great start to our weekend. The house was very clean and had a lovely feel to it, the photos really don’t do it justice- it’s beautiful. There is space to play games outside and a picnic bench and bbq which we used. It’s a very rural location which suited us. So handy to plan food in advance. We used the local chippy first night- about 3 mile away but quite a queue! Worth it though for the tasty fish!! Second day we went shopping to a supermarket. Great place to go for beautiful scenery and to get away from it all. The WiFi was unreliable which was only a problem when we were trying to google Things to do!! We had a brilliant time and I highly recommend this place for a holiday- you won’t be disappointment. Booking through Sykes was easy and hassle free too. Give it a go

• "The owner was unobtrusive, extremely delightful and helpful when needed."

  This is an excellent, spacious, modern holiday home for 3 generations as we were. Good, quiet, downstairs twin bedded (we pushed them together with ease) room and a small shower room for the older couple. Upstairs three large bedrooms (one triple bedded), two with en suites and a large bathroom for the others. All the furnishings, bed linen, etc are good quality. Everyone remarked on the comfort of the beds. A wonderful outlook with lots of parking not obscuring the panoramic view. The games room is an absolute bonus, especially when, as we had, some very ‘mixed’ weather. Our only negative, not being walkers, was that Kerry’s Gate is fairly rural with limited attractions in a 30 min radius. None of us keen in spending much time in a car having got there. But it did enable a younger member to go down memory lane in south Shropshire with his wife and children matching family paintings of their village done in the 70s and 80s by great grandparents to the landscape as it now is. Much unchanged should you wonder. The Abbey at Abbey Dore, Owl and Small Breeds Centre (don't stroke the owl as suggested if you value your fingers!) and Hay on Wye worth a visit. A good time was had by all.

  Having a downstairs bedroom was a real plus point for the eldest member of the party. If anything the pictures of the living area and kitchen didn’t do justice to the space or level of comfort. I don’t remember reading anything about the views from the cottage or garden so that was a pleasant surprise.
