“Wonderful, relaxing family break in ...”
Wonderful, relaxing family break in a stunning quiet countryside/village location. Fantastic cottage with breathtaking views outside the back of the property. The size of the property was amazing, the pictures on Sykes website do not do the cottage & area justice, lots better in reality although the photographs on the website are what made us book Sherburne cottage, one of the highlights was the hot tub(towelling robes provided) which we all got in together just to relax and watch the world go by with a cold glass of wine(plastic wineglasses provided for having a drink in hot tub). The kitchen and breakfast bar was well stocked with electrical appliances i.e. wine fridge, dishwasher, fridge freezer, cooker, microwave and coffee machine, also being able to wash and dry clothes was a bonus with a washer dryer in downstairs utility room/toilet. Both bedrooms are a great size with their own en-suites/wet-rooms The welcome basket on arrival to property was good but could have done with somethings for children i.e. some sweets or biscuits. The wifi was good but didnt have enough range as was situated in downstairs utility room/toilet where it would have been better situated in living room area. We thought it would also be beneficial for a little handheld vacuum cleaner in the cottage. The wood burning fire was fantastic and easy to use and gave a lot of heat out even though the cottage has underfloor heating throughout. We would definitely recommend to friends and family and are already planning are return in 2017. The local shop was only 10minutes walk away and 3 local pubs Ribchester arms, Black bull and the White bull, we had lunch in the ribchester arms and found the food excellent and quite large portions and the staff here are very attentive but didnt hover over you, In the black bull the land-ladies sue and cath were very friendly and welcoming and in the next few weeks they are starting to do meals in the blackbull, the white bull was closed on the occasion we walked to it but by the menu outside they have speciality food nights. The cottage we stayed in was perfect size for me and my husband and 2 children if your family size is bigger there are bigger cottages to choose from.
