Mrs Edwards
October 2020

“Will definitely book again It was fabulous a perfect romantic retreat”

- Mrs Edwards, October 2020
Mr Bradley October 2020

“Lovely, comfortable, homely cottage.”

Enjoyed our stay very much. Ideally situated for walking into Shrewsbury and also visiting beautiful Shropshire.

- Mr Bradley, October 2020
Mrs Devey October 2020

“We didn't have a car but managed to get about quite well.”

Very nice comfortable cottage. The bedroom is so spacious. Only complaint is we could have done with some help with the recycling as at home everything goes in the green bin to recycle. Will definitely recommend to friends and family thank you

- Mrs Devey, October 2020
Mrs Bateman September 2020

“Everything about the trip was lovely.”

Shrewsbury itself, the surrounding area and the cottage. It felt very welcoming and had everything we needed without being cluttered. Two specific positives - a really comfortable bed and plenty of hangers. The only slight issue was I couldn't get the underfloor heating in the kitchen and bathroom to work but we didn't really need it.

- Mrs Bateman, September 2020
Mr Brooke August 2020

“The cottage was just right for us as a couple and the facilities were excellent, it was nice to have a small decking area to eat out in garden and relax and the walk to Shrewsbury city was very doable and enjoyable and the host left a clear route to do this which was helpful, all in all an excellent break.”

- Mr Brooke, August 2020
Mrs Butler July 2020

“The Mews were excellent.”

A great situation and place to explore Shropshire, we visited gardens, cycled and walked. We ate out in Shrewsbury a couple of times and the town centre is in walking distance. We met Liz who was really helpful and she kept the cottage to a really high standard. A thoroughly enjoyable break.

- Mrs Butler, July 2020
Mr Thomas July 2020

“Really lovely small barn conversion.”

Every possible need had been catered for and we were impressed with the quality of the kitchenware, bed and general amenities. It was perfect for our needs.

- Mr Thomas, July 2020
Mr Owens February 2020

“This cottage is perfect for a couple with a baby.”

We are from Shrewsbury and used this as a base to see family. Plenty around the area to walk to and it is very quiet too. Not far from town centre if you fancy a walk. The cottage is fully equipped for a self catering stay. Everything you can think of is available. It's not huge but for the three of us it was perfect. It had a lovely garden area but it was too cold to take advantage of. The owner is fantastic and will help you with anything that you need. The bottle of wine was a lovely touch after a long journey. We will definitely try to return and stay here.

- Mr Owens, February 2020
Mr Crosby January 2020

“We had a really comfortable stay for 3 weeks in this cottage.”

The living/kitchen area is small, but not cramped, the bedroom area is spacious. Good WiFi, good shower, everthing was excellent.

- Mr Crosby, January 2020
Mr Gardner November 2019

“Fantastic break.”

We enjoyed this cosy, well decorated and well equipped house. All instructions (incl. detailed 1.5 mile walk into Shrewsbury) were very good. Ideally located for travelling around Shropshire.

- Mr Gardner, November 2019
Mrs Lovegrove October 2019

“Great location for exploring Shropshire and in particular Shrewsbury.”

Comfortable, clean cottage with a warm welcome of a bottle of wine from owner.

- Mrs Lovegrove, October 2019
Mrs Ferguson August 2019

“Lovely accommodation, very well equipped and clean.”

Easy access to Shrewsbury town centre via the number 20 bus which runs every half hour. Great place to stay as it’s close to lots of attractions. Would definitely go back.

- Mrs Ferguson, August 2019
Mr Helliwell July 2019

“The cottage is not close to the town as claimed.”

It is well over a mile and takes at least half an hour to walk at a sensible pace. To do it in 20 minutes you would need to move very briskly.

- Mr Helliwell, July 2019
Mrs Toft June 2019

“Loved the character of the cottage with mod cons.”

Good parking facilities at the cottage. The owner had thought of everything to make it a comfortable stay. We found the cottage very peaceful and warm.

- Mrs Toft, June 2019
Mr Bates May 2019

“This was a superior let in terms of décor, furnishings and comfort”

- Mr Bates, May 2019
Mr Hood May 2019

“The cottage was in a convenient location to Shrewsbury town centre.”

The accommodation was excellent and the host Liz had left a lovely cake and a bottle of wine which was a lovely touch. Everything was there that we needed even down to washing tabs for the washing machine. Would definitely recommend this cottage to anyone wishing to visit the area.

- Mr Hood, May 2019
Mrs Lewis May 2019

“A very nice cottage in an unexpected setting which was on a housing estate.”

Especially liked the proximity to Shrewsbury which was only a 20 minute walk away and through a nice part of Shrewsbury. Also the owner had left a very helpful manual which gave instructions and also a book asking for suggestions of any improvements people may have. Hadnt come across anything like that before so top marks to her! Supermarkets etc were also near and handy. Would recommend this particular cottage to any couple wanting to stay in the area.

- Mrs Lewis, May 2019
Mrs Walker May 2019

“Bank Farm Mews cottage is very close to a bus stop, and a few minutes walk from the shops and a pub and a 20 minute walk into Shrewsbury town centre.”

The amenities at the cottage are all you need for a relaxing holiday. A welcome awaited us in the form of a cake and a bottle of wine. Such thoughtful details from the owner of the property, who is accessible if any problems arise. One different idea is a suggestion book for guest to comment within, reading through it, every suggestion has been acted upon.

- Mrs Walker, May 2019
Mr Rushton April 2019

“A very good cottage for exploring the area, we visited Shrewsbury on three occasions.”

The bus stop into Shrewsbury is 100yards from the property, every half hour Monday to Saturday. However the three quarters of an hour walk into Shrewsbury is well worth it. Attingham Park, Powis Castle and Upton Cresset are close by and worth a visit.

- Mr Rushton, April 2019
Mr Buckle April 2019

“Great location.”

Clean and all functional. Fourth time of using this cottage. Highly recommended.

- Mr Buckle, April 2019
Mr Forster March 2019

“The cottage was all that a courtyard le needs to explore the area.”

Cosy living area and comfortable bed. Thoughtful touches like welcome cake and wine, items like tea, coffee and even a new dishcloth and rubber gloves makes the stay feel more like home. Easy and pretty walk into Shrewsbury town centre too. Would highly recommend this cottage for a quiet get away.

- Mr Forster, March 2019
Mrs Fitzhardy December 2018

“The cottage was exactly as described.”

Liz had left a bottle of wine and a cake which was much appreciated. Another good point was , as well as the usual visitors book, there was also a suggestions book which was checked after each lot of guests and any sensible ideas were taken on board. The location was absolutely first class and it was easy to walk into the town area. There were also good bus services close by , plus a local Co-op and other shops within easy reach. The standard of the appliances andd other fixtures was absolutely superb, even down to the induction hob in the kitchen ( we already use one at home ) Also close to the park and ride at Meole Brace which saved you having to struggle with town centre car parks. I only have one small concern and it is that I suspect that the sleeping area could potentially be quite hot during the summer months unless there is very good insulation in the roof. Also not being able to shut off the sleeping area could be a concern to some.Also if you were to go out of an evening you would need a torch during the darker months as the access to the cottage is not lit at night.

- Mrs Fitzhardy, December 2018
Mrs Welsh November 2018

“We found the cottage to be exactly what we were hoping for and it's very clean and cosy.”

Liz has put a lot of thought into the facilities provided and had left a delicious home made ginger cake and bottle of wine to greet us upon our arrival. Good location too.

- Mrs Welsh, November 2018
Mrs Williams September 2018

“Cottage was perfect.”

Cosy and very well equipped. The welcome bottle of wine and home made ginger cake was a lovely touch.

- Mrs Williams, September 2018
Mrs Walker September 2018

“The cottage was perfect for us.”

Situated within a few minutes of the town centre of Shrewsbury. We were welcomed with a bottle of wine and a freshly made ginger cake. Certainly will use Bank Farm Mews on one of our regular visits to this beautiful area.

- Mrs Walker, September 2018
Mr Stephenson August 2018

“Book at relatively short notice.”

Nice accommodation.

- Mr Stephenson, August 2018
Mrs Carter June 2018

“A very comfortable, clean and well-equipped cottage.”

The owner had baked a lovely cake and left some wine which was a thoughtful touch. Pretty little garden at the back and car parking for a smaller car. Courtyard at front is busier with residents and we parked our bigger car outside the front door with no problems. 30 minute walk into town. Cottages are hidden behind houses.

- Mrs Carter, June 2018
Mr Gay June 2018

“Very good, lovely cottage and very convenient for the bus and shops.”

There was one little problem with the combi boiler - you had to run the kitchen tap in order to get hot water in the bathroom! Turn off the kitchen hot water tap and the bathroom tap would go back to cold. Never risked the shower. Otherwise a really good holiday.

- Mr Gay, June 2018
Mr Baker May 2018

“Lovely home made ginger cake provided by renters.”

- Mr Baker, May 2018
Mr Ingram April 2018

- Mr Chatham, February 2018

- Mr Seal, July 2017
Mrs Feery March 2017

We had a lovely week visiting the area. Will definitely return and stay at the cottage

- Mrs Feery, March 2017
Mr George March 2017

“This is a lovely little cottage is furnished and decorated to a very good standard.”

We enjoyed the walk into Shrewsbury which took us 30 mins and found it an excellent base to explore the area with plenty to do within a short drive.

- Mr George, March 2017
Mrs Freundl February 2017

“The cottage was immaculate, well equipped, relaxing and comfortable.”

- Mrs Freundl, February 2017
Mrs Howson January 2017

“Fabulous cottage.”

The owner goes above and beyond to make sure you have a good stay.

- Mrs Howson, January 2017
Miss Dryburgh December 2016

“Great location and comfortable facilities.”

Great launch pad to see Shrewsbury and its beautiful surrounding villages and scenery.

- Miss Dryburgh, December 2016
Alan186263 September 2016

“Wonderful Stay”

A very comfortable and well equipped cottage within walking distance of the town centre. The owner has used suggestions from previous holidaymakers to ensure that the cottage has everything that you need. A detailed walk to the town centre is provided showing the quickest route through the housing estates. Local shops, Post Office, Public House and takeaway are just a few minutes walk away. There are plenty of places to visit in the area and I would definitely recommend a stay here. I look forward to returning in the future.”

- Alan186263, September 2016
Mr Stickler September 2016

“Would have checked "Exceeded Expectations", but as this was our first holiday with Sykes Cottages I could only put Met Expectations, but if your other properties are of the same standard, both from the accommodation and attitude of the owner I have no doubt that they would exceed expectation.”

We were extremely impressed with Bank Farm Mews.

- Mr Stickler, September 2016
Mr Buckle August 2016

“We thoroughly enjoyed our time at 2 Bank Farm Mews, we would recommend it as a delightful, spotless and style-infused cottage.”

The welcome pack of wine, flowers and home-made cake was lovely. No complaints.

- Mr Buckle, August 2016
Mr Pryce August 2016

“The cottage is lovely,it is well equiped and it is a great place to come back to after a day out.”

The reason for the one down mark on location is that we like somewhere to walk to in an evening.Everything else was great, very pleased.

- Mr Pryce, August 2016
Mrs Franks July 2016

“The cottage was is in a very quiet and peaceful spot.”

You can walk into Shrewsbury in approx 30 mins which is a fantastic town with so many great restaurants and pubs.

- Mrs Franks, July 2016

There were lots of walks in the area and it was also handy for the local shops. I met the owner who should be very proud of the hard work she has put into making this cottage a real home from home.

- Mrs Daykin, February 2016
Ms Preece January 2016

“The owner of the property was absolutely wonderful, she was polite and helpful throughout our stay.”

The cottage was spotlessly clean, everything we needed was there and it was beautifully decorated. I can't fault a thing.

- Ms Preece, January 2016
Miss Snelgrove December 2015

Also in a nice location, an ideal place to get away from it all without being totally cut off from civilization.

- Miss Snelgrove, December 2015
Mrs Turner December 2015

“What can I say, this is a truly magnificent holiday cottage.”

Everything you would need was there and I can only add again that my experience at Bank Farm Mews was excellent. Well done the owner for making it so accessible. I would definitely stay again and recommend the cottage to family and friends. Thank you.
