Rose Hips Barn

Apart from next doorsll dogs pooping in our patio area, everything was perfect.

All the rooms were very comfortable and spacious. The decor is in excellent condition and it's one of the most comprehensively stocked kitchens I've experienced.

I wouldn’t hesitate to give Rosehips Barn a 10/10.

The property is prepared to a very high standard, including all fixtures and fittings. All of the beds were super comfy. There is a master bathroom plus each bedroom, bar one, has its own en-suite, again built to a high standard. The house is big and airy and plenty of space for everyone staying there. Pretty much every conceivable utensil is included in the kitchen. The garden is huge and very very peaceful. The owners kept a respectful distance so as to not intrude, but were very friendly, including the dogs which liked to pay a visit. The dogs were a hit with our kids. The only draw back is the internet speed with it being a semi rural location, BT’s fault not the owners. Maybe a Starlink satellite connection could be looked into. We all felt like we had a proper break and absolutely cannot fault the place.

We had an amazing time at Rose Hips Barn!

5 adults, 3 children and a Yorkshire terrier and there was space for everyone! A shower for every bedroom and also a bath….couldn't ask for more. Lovely and warm on the cold days with the underfloor heating. There was plenty of outdoor space for the children to play and run around, which they loved. There was everything you might need in the kitchen to feed a hungry crowd. Would definitely stay again. Thank you.

We thoroughly enjoyed our family get together at Rose Hip Barn, it had everything we could want, was clean and cosy.

Location was great too

We had a lovely pre-Christmas get together with family at Rose Hips Barn, with many thoughtful touches from the owners, including welcome goodies and splendid Christmas decorations.

The accommodation is wonderful, spacious and comfortable. The kitchen is very well equipped and we easily prepared large meals for ourselves. The bedrooms are great, and we will definitely come back next time we have a family get together in Lancashire. Our dog had a lovely time there too!

Superb property.

Beautifully decorated, spacious and equipped with everything for our stay. Fantastic, quiet rural location but only a few minutes drive from Chorley town center. Will definately return

Super family property in a great location.

We live in the US and this was our second time staying at Rose Hips Barn while visiting family.

It was a wonderful experience both times. Very well equipped, very clean, cozy vibes and amazing atmosphere and views. Will definitely be back. Thank you!

A lovely cottage, warm, clean and comfortable with everything needed.

Lovely views and pleasant garden.

Lovely property, amazing views and very friendly owners, we could not have asked for a better stay.

Very comfortable, spacious accommodation - ideal for a family gathering such as ours.

Wonderful location too

An excellent large family friendly property which we love and have been back to several times.

Highly recommended.

Lovely accommodation, very well equipped.

We had a lovely stay and hope to return.

This is the fourth time we have stayed at Rose Hips Barn.

The host is excellent and extremely responsive to any questions. It is a fabulous property and I would not hesitate to recommend it to anyone.

This was our third stay at Rose Hips Barn, It really is a fabulous property and I would have no hesitation in recommending it or Sykes Cottages to anyone.

Rose Hips Barn is a lovely place to stay.

The location is excellent as it is surrounded by beautiful countryside yet it's only a short drive to a busy town with a railway station, supermarkets and cinema. The barn is very spacious, with excellent views over fields to the nearby hills. The rooms are all large and all facilities are available and well maintained. Apart from the main bedroom the rooms upstairs do not have good views, but there is plenty of light from rooftop windows. We had a small problem with the owner's two dogs who barked and howled when they were left alone - but they were quiet in the evening so it wasn't too much of a problem. Some storage space in the "family bathroom" would be appreciated as there's nowhere to put toothbrushes etc. On the other hand there's loads of storage space elsewhere in the house. I would recommend this barn to anyone who would like to spend some time in this area.

We had the most amazing week at Rose Hips Barn.

The barn is absolutely lovely with everything catered for. The setting is idyllic with nice walks from the front door. Thank you.

This was our second time at Rose Hips Barn - we could not have been happier.

It is a wonderful property!!

Lovely stay at Rose Hips barn.

The accommodation was very spacious and comfortable. Great location. I would stay here again and highly recommend this charming vacation rental.

This is a great property (though it isn't cheap, which makes a difference when you're assessing value for money).

The space is very good and the setting is excellent. It would have been useful to have more notes relating to the house, eg how the heating could be controlled (turned down!), how the cooker worked, but it was a perfect place for our group

Clean, comfortable, plenty of space.

Everything that we needed was there to hand. Beds were very comfortable. Appliances were easy to use. People we encountered were very friendly. Lovely big field that we were allowed to walk our dog around and pet the horses. Absolutely stunning views. Only down side the heating was a bit too high and there were no instructions on turning it down to a more comfortable temperature. Apart from that we had a fabulous relaxing week away. We will definitely be returning in the future. Absolutely amazing!!!

A fantastic large holiday home.

It is perfect in every way - we will be coming back for certain. Great location and beautiful countrywide, what else could one ask for.

We've just come back from a most relaxing enjoyable holiday at Rise hips barn.

The accommodation was first class .clean comfortable and very spacious.plenty of room for all the ages that we're there . Luxurious linen and towels .and enough showers . The kitchen was comfortable and well equipped. But the best part was the views and surrounding areas .you felt like you were in the middle of mowhere not a house to be seen but yet only a few minutes away from the motorway which was practical and convenient. We made friends with the horses and enjoyed relaxing at the pond .the owners two dogs were very friendly .our hosts were there if we needed something but completely non intrusive . And leaving us the milk and biscuits made us feel very welcome . It is definitely a place we recommend and would like to come back to. Thank you

We stayed for a long weekend, 3 families with small children.

Here are my pros and cons: Pros: - Lovely house. Modern but with a lovely cottage feeling. - Modern spacious kitchen with all you need for cooking meals. - Very comfortable beds, spacious bedrooms that allowed us to accommodate comfortably a travelling cot. - Enough bathrooms for everybody, good water pressure. - Spacious driveway that accommodates several cars. - Lovely outdoor space, with horses and a pond full of fishes that the kids loved and enjoyed. - Easy to find with google maps. - Gated estate with security pin to enter and security cameras. - Dogs welcomed. - Underfloor heating. - Overall very clean. Cons: - The price. It was ridiculously expensive compared to the following weekend and for what it was. We felt we were ripped off. - It is NOT suitable for small children. Too many stairs, steps, decorative items, formal sitting room and dining rooms filled with things children would love to touch, we had to shut the doors for those rooms unfortunately. - Not enough instructions on how to turn off the underfloor heating. It was a very warm weekend and was very uncomfortable having the underfloor heating on and we didn't know how to turn it off. Summary: Although the house was beautiful and very comfortable, we could not relax as we had to be constantly on the guard keeping the children safe from all the steps and stairs, etc. Perhaps the experience would have been different for adults only or older children. The price for that weekend was a total rip off, we felt it was for some reason very inflated and unreasonable and we regret making the decision of using this site and staying there. In addition, the cancellation is not flexible at all making it very difficult to accommodate for the unforeseen and there's no option to pay additional for a cancellation insurance. For this reason we won't be using sykecottages again.

Really pretty barn in a beautiful location!

Clean, quiet and idyllic. Perfect for family get togethers. Ample walks in local areas.

Rose Hips Barn is a real home from home.

It's really well equipped - the kitchen had everything we needed, there were hairdryers in every room, even the dog was well catered for. My only negative was there was no travel cot and high chair which would've been really helpful when travelling already with lots of stuff but it didn't impact our stay at all and we would definitely stay here again. Beds were comfy, nearly all bedrooms had an en-suite, and the rooms were dark which helps putting kids to bed on light evenings. There was a utility with washing machine/ tumble dryer, a lovely outside area, beautiful views and great locality - plus a friendly and warm welcome upon arrival and even a thoughtful welcome pack. Really couldn't have asked for more. Thank you for a Wonderful stay

A beautiful house in a gorgeous location.

Wish we could have stayed longer

Great property - well equipped, lots of space and very comfortable.

Exceptional accommodation in an exceptional location ticked all the boxes for us giving us an exceptional week away.

Dog owners will love the beauty and variety of walks close by. Our grandchildren (8 & 9) are still talking about the two days they spent with us. They had a ball. Weather was kind to us for this time of the year and that helped but wasn't crucial as there is still lots to do. WiFi is not brilliant (buck up BT !) but that didn't take anything away from our stay. Mobile signal is 4G and that is more than enough for daily activities.

Beautiful setting and beautiful accommodation which suited our family reunion perfectly.

Lots of things to do and see in any sort of weather! Everyone had a lovely break and felt relaxed and at home. The dog loved the underfloor heating! Loads of parking and very private.

Had a great weekend in Rose Hips Barn.

The property was extremely versatile for the family and their requirements allowing us all to be together informally and formally at meal times and with enough areas to allow quiet and calm when needed. It was very clean and the rooms ideal and very comfortable. I would stay there again

Fabulous, comfortable, clean accommodation with all amenities.

The welcoming gifts is a lovely touch and the underfloor heating is bliss. The sunrise in the morning is pretty spectacular especially with seeing deer walking across the garden. Great location to visit family nearby. Will be looking to return. Thank you Rose Hips Barn.

Rose Hips Barn is a fabulous house with plenty of room, inside and out, for a family holiday.

The horses and chickens next door proved very popular with our grandchildren. The house is very well appointed, with everything you could need. We especially appreciated that most bedrooms were en-suite. The area itself is lovely, with great walks and Blackpool and the coast are only about 45 minutes away. I would thoroughly recommend this property.

The only fly in the ointment was the poor quality WiFi.

The cottage was beautiful, spacious, clean and plenty of homely touches.

I would definitely recommend it to a friend. 3

Superb property, good value for money.

The only disappointment was we had to return to home.

Rose Hip Barn is a beautiful place to stay, in stunning countryside with wonderful walks like White coppice waterfalls. We will be return

We had a brilliant break in Rose Hips Barn The house was in a beautiful setting, so very well equipped, comfortable, had great views, ample parking.

We had a lovely welcome pack waiting for us Great setting for exploring the pennine walks/easy access to the lakes All in all a welcoming wonderful place Highly recommend

Loved the Barn.

Ample space for the 7 adults and one dog who shared the home. The owners left a bottle of wine, bottle of milk and a selection of biscuits for us on arrival. The only disappointment was the BT WIFI, I believe BT need to do better. We hope to visit again sometime in the future.

Gorgeous converted barn with high quality fixtures and fittings.

The beds were super comfortable! Easy to access the property with the instructions from the owner. The photos don’t do this gorgeous property justice!

Owners were lovely and on hand but not intrusive in your face being close by.

The barn was beautiful! Only downside was the wifi was a bit dodgy at times. Welcome hamper was a nice touch x

A fantastic cottage in beautiful surroundings.

Very well equipped. Although we always go fully prepared for our dogs, re towels, dog beds, bowls, etc, the cottage had also provided everything for them, including treats! We were also given biscuits and wine, Which was a lovely touch. Would dedinately recommend this cottage.

Rosehips Barn was beautiful, well equipped and great for a larger group to have plenty of space.

We loved it. The only difficulty we encountered whilst we were staying was intermittent access to Wifi

I can't say enough good things about this cottage, superb for a family get together.

Lovely cottage and an amazing stay.

Property was very clean and some treats were left for us and the dog on arrival, which was a nice touch. Will definitely be coming back.

Rose Hips Barn was total luxury.

Very spacious and high quality fixtures and fittings.

A spacious venue catering for all ages We were celebrating :2 80th birthdays ages ranged from 80 - 12.

&8 years Had a wounderful family weekend would recommend to other families Thank you

I booked the Barn to celebrated my husbands 60th Birthday with all the family.

The Barn was fully equipped with all kitchen accessories, lots of storage, a large fridge, enough crockery and cutlery for 12 people. The only things you need to take are your own personal toiletries and food. There was more than enough room for 8 people. The whole family found it very comfortable. The owner Deb's as very accommodating allowing the Children age 5yrs and 2 1/2 yr old to see the horses and chickens. The long drive allowed the children to ride their scooters without any fear of traffic under our supervision of course. There is plenty of walks in the area, all detailed in the information booklet and only 40 minuet drive to Southport. The whole family thought the Barn was fabulous . Our daughter has booked her family summer holiday in Cornwall through your company after spending a weekend at Rose Hips Barn. Thank you Sykes Cottages for making our family celebration just what I wanted, and I found it value for money.

Fabulous barn conversion with spacious accomodation.

We had a lovely, relaxing break.

This is without doubt one of the best houses I have ever stayed in.

. It had everything you could possibly want in s a beautiful location.

This break was for my husband to spend quality time with his two girls and his grandchildren.

The cottage facilities certainly enhanced the time spent together. There was enough room for the little one to have her sleep time in quiet during the day while the rest of us had family time together. The amenities in the bedrooms meant everyone had an ensuite except us who had the bathroom which meant with nine of us in the cottage there was no waiting to use the loo! etc. The cottage is situated in lovely countryside but near to many places to visit. The owner left us some lovely biscuits, a bottle of wine and a bottle of milk for us on arrival which was very much appreciated. The kitchen is very well equipped for use and provides well for the number is the cottage. The beds were very comfortable and all slept well We had a wonderful holiday in this cottage and many happy memories made with our family, thank you. Maureen Wolstencroft

The property is very high spec, a real home from home.

The owners were on hand if you needed them but not in your face. Wine and Biccys on arrival was a lovely touch. The location was lovely with lovely walks from the property. Ideally set for days out in Lancaster, Blackpool and the Pendal District. The Italian food at The Red Cat was to die for. A bonus was a week of wall to wall sunshine!

Very comfortable and spacious barn conversion.

Well equipped, warm and cosy. Delightful location. Dogs made very welcome with dog towels,snack and beds.

Beautiful house with a touch of class!

Rose Hip Barn was well equipped and tastefully decorated. We enjoyed the peace and quiet while in and the hustle of the attractions nearby. Thank you for the 'welcome treats'. Much appreciated! Next time, we hope to book for the whole week.

Perfect house for an extended family holiday with two dogs!

they loved the fields and the treats! The house was extremely well equipped and would definitely stay again!

We were a bit surprised to find such a rural oasis in what we thought was a pretty urbanised area.

Although it is dog friendly it is not secure enough to keep your dogs in the garden it will be the same for small children.

Excellent host.

The cottage was beautifully cleaned and the additional welcome gifts were a lovely touch, dog bed, towels for the dog and doggy treats. Bottle of wine was well received by the adult visitors. The cottage was equipped with the very best of equipment and very tastefully decorated. The surrounding garden and fields were beautiful and our dog had a great time running through the field at the back of the house. The cottage is perfectly situated for walkers. We hope to return next year.

Rose Hips Barn is lovely throughout.

Clean and everything you could possibly need. Kitchen was a great space to share the cooking and still be with those sat in the lounge area. Dog beds, bowls and towels came in handy. Great space for dogs, free run of field. We felt the barn was very homely and comfortable. Thank you for the welcome gifts from the lovely owners. We had a great time, would definitely return.

Fantastic place to stay would certainly go back again.

This was our second stay and we will no doubt return.

The accommodation is extremely clean and very well equipped with everything we needed. The owners are next door and are very accommodating - nothing is too much trouble. The setting is beautiful - lovely big garden with great views and lots of stunning walks on the doorstep. A lovely welcome pack was left for our arrival and very much appreciated. Every last detail has been thought of - right down to the dogs needs! We were even lucky enough to be there during the Easter heatwave. A great week - we would definitely recommend to anyone.

Stayed here recently in a group of 8 it was absolutely beautiful.

The house was amazing and beautifully kept. We were met with wine and biscuits the owners had definately gone above and beyond to make us feel welcome. This is by far the best place we've stayed in and we do this get together every year. The underfloor heating was a bonus and kept the house lovely and warm. I would highly recommend this house and look forward to staying here again.

The barn was beautiful.

It catered for all we needed, and we would definitely use it again if we were in that area. Very pleased.

Beautiful cottage ,large open rooms, warm underfloor heating, peaceful location ,very tastefully decorated ,beautiful furniture ,comfy beds ,great bath ,kitchen equipment fantastic for holiday let ,lots of little extras in kitchen and bathrooms and wine and biscuits too, had a lovely chilled 3 night stay with family in atrocious weather but what a fab place to seek refuge .

Beautiful house, lovely surroundings, extremely well equipped enormous kitchen.

There are a few steps on the ground floor so maybe not suited to very young children.

Fantastic barn in a lovely setting.

Owner Debbie very helpful and welcoming. The barn was superb for the 7 of us and 2 dogs. We spent the majority of our time in the gorgeous social kitchen and living area. 3 out of the 4 bedrooms ensuite which is great for a large group. The main bathroom was also lovely. We would definitely look to book again. Thank you for a great time!

Such a relaxing holiday in a beautiful cottage with great surroundings

Simply superb in every way.

5 star property in a lovely and relaxed location. This property really is a home from home.

The cottage is stunning and exceeded expectations.

The space was homely, clean and fresh. Lovely views. The kitchen was well equip Our dog had a great time in the fields and there was dog towels to dry her off and comfy dog beds too. The under floor heating was so hot at times but welcomed when we returned from our walks. Hope to visit again in the summer to make use of the bi-fold doors. Note to Sykes: the cottage was listed as the Lake District which I had filtered out as it was too far from where we needed to stay - It was only by chance I found it.

We have stayed at many holiday cottages and this is by far one of the best.

It was spotlessly clean everywhere and every last detail has been thought about. The furnishings and fixtures are all of a high standard - the bedding is excellent quality and super comfortable. The welcome gifts were generous and much appreciated by everyone including the dogs! The entry instructions were clear and easy to understand and contact with the owner when needed was answered promptly and nothing was any trouble. We had a fantastic week, enjoyed many walks in pretty countryside and relaxed in luxurious surroundings when back at the house. We will definitely be looking to return here and would highly recommend it.

'Absolutely fabulous' - Rose Hips Barn is an outstanding holiday rental.

The barn was spotless, the furnishings were beautiful and a lot of thought has obviously gone in to providing all that one would need when away from home e.g. tea, coffee, sugar, hairdryers (one in each bedroom!), loo rolls, hand wash, bubble bath etc, etc. Set in a beautiful rural part of Lancashire but near to good pubs and restaurants and easy motorway access. A bottle of wine, chocolate cake and milk in the fridge were a nice touch on our arrival. I've stayed in many holiday home over the years, this was simply - the best!
