"The property is spacious, well equipped and clean."
The beds in particular were very comfortable. The property sleeps 8 but the lounge area seating was really only suitable for 6 Adults. The large island in the kitchen is used as a breakfast bar it looks fantastic but to sit around it was not practicable for children or older adults. The location is amazing with views of open countryside and the farm animals ambling past looking in at us. The location is very good for exploring the area. We cannot comment on the hot tub as we didn’t use it.

"On the whole a lovely property, few disappointments to do with comfort and lack of social space for dining etc."
No cushions for outside furniture which would have been welcome as we had a heatwave

"Lovely, well equipped house."
Good quality fixtures and fittings with the added luxury of a hot tub.
Very peaceful property surrounded by countryside. Amazing to wake up and see cows, sheep, dogs and peacocks!!
Maybe the addition of some cushions for the outside furniture and a couple of loungers would complete the picture.

"We had a fabulous time at Meadow Top Farm Barn."
....7 ladies enjoying a weekend of laughter. The accommodation is superb and of a very high standard. The hot tub is just perfect and we spent many hours relaxing and chatting in it. Personally, I have never slept in a more comfortable bed....absolute bliss. The added attraction of the loved up peacocks next door made for a wonderful weekend...just what we all needed. Would definitely return
Thankyou so much, So glad you enjoyed your stay, Sarah and Andrew

"We had a great stay at Meadow top farm barn."
There was 7 of us and 3 dogs, the barn is very spacious and has been tastefully done throughout the whole house and was very clean. The beds and pillows are very comfortable. Situated not far from everything you would need and there are some great walks not too far. All of us really enjoyed our stay and would definitely return and recommend to family and friends.
Thankyou so much, glad you enjoyed your stay Meadow Top Farm

"We had an enjoyable weekend stay at this cottage and used the hot tub every night which was good size for our party of 6 adults."
We didn't have chance to spend much time outside because of the snow so cant comment on the gardens etc. This is a nice cottage with good facilities but it is just lacking some of the key things to make it a 5 star property.
Firstly the listing is incorrect as its states 4 en suite bedrooms however there are only 2 en-suites and a shared bathroom. ( I did mention this to the owner) The main bedroom en-suite is very nice with a great Jacuzzi bath which our grand-daughter enjoyed.
Secondly it is located down a farm track and across a golf course access road which would normally be OK but there had been heavy snowfall, these roads were not gritted which caused one of our cars to get stuck but the owners kindly helped us out.
One other observations:- there were no mattress or pillow protectors on the beds which for us is a must and should be on as standard.

"Meadow Top Barn had everything to satisfy our family needs, the ground floor accommodation / bedroom was ideal for our family member who has mobility issues."
Very comfortable, plenty of indoor space for everyone and secured outdoor space for the dogs, we had a very relaxing holiday and being positioned next to a working farm gave additional amusement to the children. Thank you from Pam, Alex and family

"We recently stayed at Meadow Top Farm Barn, booked through Sykes Cottages, and found the property itself to be absolutely stunning."
The barn is beautifully set out, with a thoughtful layout and excellent amenities that made for a comfortable stay. The picturesque surroundings and serene environment added to the overall charm, making it an ideal retreat.
However, our experience was unfortunately marred by a significant issue with the septic tank. The tank was broken, resulting in a pervasive odor that infiltrated the property. This smell made the barn uninhabitable, impacting our ability to enjoy our stay. Despite being assured by the owners that the issue would be rectified within a certain timeframe, these promises were not kept.
We were forced to leave the property at 10:40 PM with a disabled person and a two-year-old child who were both in bed at the time. The owners have not accepted liability for the situation and have not offered a refund, despite the negative health effects of cesspit gases and the considerable inconvenience we faced. Exposure to gases like hydrogen sulfide, methane, ammonia, and carbon dioxide can cause serious health issues such as respiratory irritation, headaches, dizziness, nausea, and even life-threatening conditions like respiratory failure and asphyxiation.
Additionally, Sykes Cottages has been unhelpful, stating that they cannot do anything to assist us in this matter.
Due to these issues and the lack of resolution, we would not consider returning. We hope future guests do not encounter similar problems and that the owners and Sykes Cottages take immediate action to resolve this serious issue.
In response to your review. We are pleased to hear that you did find our holiday home to be absolutely stunning
We are, however, disappointed that you have left such a negative and somewhat unfair review.
You are correct, there was an issue with the septic tank. With this being a new property and you being some of our first guests, you unfortunately bore the brunt of teething issues.
You brought to our attention the problem with the odour from the septic tank in the evening (approximately 9pm) out of normal working hours for trades people.
We arranged for contractors to come to the property and they were on site rectifying the problem first thing in the morning. You have stated that no contractors came to the property, which is incorrect. There were in fact drainage, plumbing and electrical contractors on site from the morning. They did not need to enter the property and carried out all works outdoors behind the hot tub building and at the rear of the property. Thus causing no disturbance to your privacy in the house.
You can attest to that, as we needed to ask you to temporarily switch off the electric in the house to allow for work to be carried out.
At no time did you attempt to engage with us regarding your concerns about contractors not being on site or our apparent lack of trying to rectify the issue.
The problem had been resolved during the day and you decided to leave the property late at night when we the owners were in bed.
Had you contacted us directly we could have had a discussion, instead you decided to leave all of your possessions in the house, take the keys and then return the following day to collect your belongings.
You again did not attempt to make contact only via text message once you’d left for the second time.
We are truly sorry that you feel we did not do everything we could to rectify the problem. The tank was fixed within hours of you reporting this to us. I’m unsure as to what more we could have done? I’m I hi hi

"Our stay was absolutely amazing, and the owners where fantastic also."
Super clean and outside was very tidy and well maintained.
We stayed with our 3 dogs and they had a blast being able to freely roam around the fully fenced plot.
Hot tub was fantastic and even had its own building with toilet/shower etc
Will absolutely be staying again!
Thankyou very much, hope to see you soon
