"It’s rare to find a property like this."
The property is not five star luxury but that’s reflected in the price. We had use of a really warm pool and used the hot tub. Unlimited supply of logs for the burner, The teenagers played chess and snooker. The adults gathered around the fires and chatted. It was clean, it was warm and we had an amazing time. Plenty of spaces for the different groups in our party to relax. Beautiful views, lovely walks.
We would stay again. It’s quirky, it’s old, it is a bit tatty round the edges, it’s creaky it’s beautiful.

"Booked this property for a family members 50th."
The cottage itself is massive the kids loved playing hide and seek. Need a bloody good clean and really dated spiders every were but it was fine. Anyway Saturday night was our party night as some of our family had to leave sunday for work Monday. Lit the fire in the main livingroom all cozy, next min the roof starting leaking. I don't mean a little bit it was pouring in. Sofa was soaked, floors were soaked. It was coming in from the light sockets so couldn't turn lights on. Anyway we spend most of the night mopping, grabbing pans, bath mats anything we could find to soak it up. It's a shame really because we was having a ball up until then. I did contact sykes but owner said it was down to heavy rain fall. But am sorry my house doesn't leak when it rains. Being waterproof is sort of standard for
a house I would of thought.
guests where shown around the property on arrival, feed back was extremely positive.so shocked to hear the negative complaints.
There was local flooding in the area following an unprecedented amount of rainfall in a short space of time.(once in 50 year storm local press reported)
we were very appreciative to the guests for catching the water that came in the conservatory thanking them in the morning.
the guest I spoke to was quite happy and didn't state that the night was ruined
on inspection the sofa was dry and several low voltage lights effected had dried out.
we replaced the bath mats used to mop up

"Lovely characteristic old Manor house surrounded by lovely countryside."
Ample space for everyone, there was 22 of us and the bedrooms were large, enough bathrooms, and very generous living space. We cooked a huge roast dinner on the Sunday and the 3 ovens and 4 fridges made this very easy! Lots of tools pots pans in the kitchen to use as well.
The house is a classic old Manor house. It is old, the doors and floorboards creak, it is clean fresh beds, clean baths showers etc.
The bbq is small and coal so had to use the oven to cook most of our bbq.
If you are looking for a modern, clinically clean house - this one isn't for you.
The hot tub is up a slippery narrow path - again didn't bother us but might some. There is a chlorine guy that turns up everyday to check the chlorine levels of the pool and hotub.
There was a leaky shower which I messaged the owner about and he got back to me straight away.
Our group had a great time as we didn't mind the quirks of the house - it made trip and we would go back again.

"We had an amazing family weekend in this beautiful house."
It is in a lovely location looking across the valley at Chirk castle . Nice grounds with plenty of space for children to play safely and we made good use of the swimming pool and hot tub. The house itself is spacious with room for all to be together for meals and also find space for some quiet time if prefered. The boys enjoyed the snooker table, many spent time relaxing in the conservatory, playing games in the library or reading in the lounge. The kitchen is fully equipped with plenty of fridge space, cutlery, and crockery to cater for a large party. The aga makes this room cosy. Up an amazing staircase to a galleried landing and onwards to the spacious bedroom accommodation. The owner greeted us on arrival and was around to deal with anything we needed over the weekend. Everyone had a grwat time Thank you!

"Don’t bother!"
Whole Place looks like it needs a deep clean
The showers look like they haven’t been cleaned and some have mould
Floors and skirting boards are dirty in some of the rooms
Cobwebs and spiders in rooms
Carpet looks grimy in some of the rooms
Two of the beds were sloping so people had to change beds.
Couldn’t get Jacuzzi bath to work but it looked grimy so we probably wouldn’t have used it anyway
Very poor lighting in the kitchen when trying to cook
Lack of updated appliances, e.g. coffee maker, blender
Some of the pans are very tired and could do with updating - 1 large frying pan without non stick - not much good for 15 people!
Mice in the kitchen at night running around
Outside really needs a lot of work. Could be a beautiful space. No quality seating for comfort or dining. Dirty plastic chairs rusting table. - seating without cushions. Doesn’t look like they’ve ever swept the floor outside or bothered weed in the area to make it look presentable for guests. Owner left the house 10 years ago and looks like they haven’t touched it much to it since except to knock bits of tatty wood around weak spots outside.
Barbecue hasn’t been properly cleaned up from the last guest and was just a rusty mess
Hot tub area needs looking at very poorly maintained also access to it was but precarious and needs maintenance - bodged decking area.
Whole out side area looks like it needs maintenance - sweeping, cleaning weeding
Steps up to grass are not family friendly at back
Shed full of tat on display in garden
For the money that is paid it should be so much cleaner and provide comfortable outdoor seating.
Swimming pool is an older lined pool (not tiled) lots of ridges underfoot and very slippy for the children outside the pool. Also the ledge is very narrow around the pool so not great. Didn’t charge us for the hour but but to be honest if they had we’d have thought, it was a bit of a cheek.
To top it off, they held a community event on the front lawn which were only asked about two weeks before we arrived - explained it was an annual Solstice event, didn’t explain there were other options or that it was a night event. Made it out to be, ‘abit of music, bouncy castle and few beers and chip butties’. However, on arrival there were already three large colourful tents on the front lawn blocking the country views and use of the lawn. People and vehicles were milling around in preparation and a knock at the door for electricity. The next day more people and vehicles until the event started much later than we expected and and then a live band started at 9 pm around 20 metres from the house!! Music only went off when I messaged at 12:30 am because no one in our group could sleep. More people moving around outside the house and heavy machinery to remove the tents once dismantled. Joke! Total lack of privacy and intrusion that was never explained prior, Simon downplayed the impact on guests.
Poor communication from the owner who keeps talking about discussing the situation with the committee rather than giving us a part refund. This seems to be a trend if you look at some of the other reviews.
Not a lovely bright, clean country Manor House by any means- To be honest, after staying there, I’d have struggled to pay 2k for it for a weekend Let alone closer to 4K!!
So far, we’ve been insulted by an offer of £150 refund!
Don’t waste your time, effort and money!
Hi Sonia
I'm so sorry that you felt it necessary to write such a damning review
as yourself and your family socialised with us for the full duration of the community charity event ( party) enjoying all of the free hospitality, including food beer wine, etc. live music and bouncy castle for the children.
All of the above was arranged with your full knowledge and our prior request for permission to hold the event during your stay.
I have, in fact, text messages from yourself saying how much you were looking forward to the party, etc. We also brought the event to a prompt end, immediately after receiving a text message from you asking how long will on for
post your holiday to receive a request for a large sum of money as a refund for your inconvenience with regard to the event having taken place.
When refused,
You proceeded to make some untrue and very unfair complaints, none of which were brought to our attention during your stay with us.
This is a very unfair review, and We suggest to readers that it be taken in isolation! It's definitely not a true reflection, and we welcome any future guests to carry out a pre-inspection of the property.

"The actual property was beautiful however lacks abit of cleanliness."
Very spacious perfect for big groups. The mattress's in the annex are so uncomfortable-we slept on the sofa on the 2nd and 3rd night. The heaters don't work in there either which we reported.
We had a water issue no warm water for more than 12 hrs. We was told its because there is a lot of people at the property and the boiler takes longer to warm the water. Some of us had to have a shower in cold water after using the pool and hot tub. It's not ideal and really need to update the boiler system. You cannot expect people to wait 12 hrs for warm water. Also two bathrooms were broken and we had to get someone in to have a look at it. You don't expect these issues when you pay alot of money. I felt like Simon didn't really care. We got a £250 refund at the end. I wish I could recommend this property and even come back but I wouldn't as the house really needs TLC and money spent on it to maintain it. It's a real shame to be honest.
My only advise would be to READ ALL THE OTHER reviews prior to booking as I didn't and wish I did first!!

"BM is a beautiful house, the location, decor and the actual house is great - highlights are the grand staircase and the purposeful kitchen."
Simon is helpful, friendly and responsive-important! The kitchen was very well resourced and the smaller additional kitchen is so helpful. The pool was amazing and clean. Gym was less so, needs more equipment. Squash was great fun. The house was generally clean. I've read issues with heating, we went in July and this was fine, the additional heaters in the rooms really help. We had a great time, a week away, at the end of July. The outdoor space (at the front) is lovely, not huge, but large enough for some games and chilling. Plenty of wood and we had a good fire going in the conservatory throughout our stay. Bbq and the area around it was fine, designed for log fires but we did vamp with easy to light coal too; plenty of chairs and seating space. Bedrooms upstairs were lovely, the two rooms in the annex need love. Skyes cottage says the library sleeps two, this is not accurate and has been confirmed by Simon (also no oven cloves needed, not sure why Skyes say that!)
However, the house needs work.
1. Bigger issues - we had a leak, two I think. One leak was so significant that water woke us up; we were offered no partial refund/ compensation and I guess I was too polite/daft to ask. That night was stressful and really difficult. We were running around with pots trying to 'catch' the incessant drips and reduce damage to the room. We also had to wake others up, so my elderly father had somewhere to sleep.
2. Smell of damp. It's an old house. It needs work, clearly. The damp can be strong and some of us developed a cough by the end of the week.
3.the tennis court needs love
4. I think the price is steep for a house that needs quite a lot of love and work.
Short term issues:
1. Not all ensuits have doors that close properly and one room leading to the terrace/hot tub did not have a lock. This is tricky in a family room.
2. Bedroom 8's shower didn't work
Thank you for taking the time to review our property. We are so sorry and disappointed at finding out you wished to leave some negative feedback points for the property.
We were made aware of the leak on the last night of your stay with us and made sure to come and check this incident out immediately. We found that the leak was coming from the bathroom shower above and was only apparent when the shower screen door was not fully over the bath causing it to drip onto the floor.
Given this, we do believe this to be an isolated incident and are confident that no further issue will incur.
We have been to the property and can tell no signs/smell of dampness, we did have a leak very early on in the year however went through an extensive drying phase to make sure there was not a single spot of damp.
We made sure to stay in regular contact via text to make sure you were enjoying your stay.
We do apologise if the points raised impacted your stay however it was only the leak that was raised to us and this being on the final night, as a gesture of goodwill we would like to offer you a refund of £50 in hopes this will make up for the leaking from the shower.

But we had a lovely weekend and were lucky to enjoy a beautiful Christmas tree nicely decorated. We loved the house and would definitely recommend it for a break away.

There were 23 of us in our group, ranging from 2yrs to 85yrs. The property had something for everyone. We loved the swimming pool, gym, pool table and hot tub and made use of this daily.
As you'd expect with a large property, there were things that didn't work (e.g. showers, heating). However, the property owners were excellent at responding to calls and immediately rectifying any issues. This is a big plus in our opinion!!
We are a family of cooks - and everyone enjoyed the large kitchen, Aga and the separate small kitchenette in the annexe, as well as the well proportioned dining room and living rooms.
Our family enjoyed walks around the property; Chirk castle is about 20minutes walk across fields (steep in areas), as is the aquaduct. For further trips, we visited Barmouth beach (about 1hr40mins by car) and a few of us climbed Mt Snowden (about 1hr30mins away).
We would definitely recommend this property to similar sized groups. In fact, we've already recommended to other families.
We hope to return again soon, as there are many more beautiful walks and activities that we couldn't cram into a week!! (Paddle boarding in Bala for example!).

"Our feeback is in relation to the property rather than the service that Sykes Cottages provided."
The property was undoubtedly at some time a grand house. The owner was very polite and helpful, given the size of the house there was plenty of room for our family during our stay.
We were desperately disappointed with the overall cleanliness and hygiene of the property - more so given the times that we all live with and adjust to now.
We honestly felt as though we had to clean and/or check every item that we used in preparing and consuming food and drink. Cups, glasses and plates in the cupboards were returned there dirty, the fridges needed a 'super' clean, the bar-b-que was horrendous and had not been touched since it was last used.
The property was generally tired and needs a serious refresh. When one pays the rental fees demanded for this property it would be expected that all the showers were operational and manageable - NONE of the showers had adequate water flow, the temperature could not be managed (they were scolding hot and could not be reduced).
Several light bulbs had expired and not been replaced, the kitchen area is inadequately lit for an area regulalry used to prepare food and clean. There was a box of items under the kitchen sink that were damp and moulding, several taps constantly leaked and toliet cisterns constantly running. Dog litter and prior guests toys on the lawn, no mattress covers on the beds.
It's a list, not exhaustive and not written by someone with a complacent or negative nature - just an opinion that so much more should be provided and done to ensure that visitor's felt comfortable, safe and clean when prices being demanded are so high.
