“From start to finish our new year break was amazing.”

The cottage was exactly what we expected plus more. Neat , tidy , clean and the welcome pack was a bonus

“The cottage was beautiful and very clean but the things that were slightly disappointing was there were a lot of wasps around the pool and the pool area wasn’t cleaned everyday so when going to the pool the pool cover was covered in dead wasps and dead wasps needed fishing out of the pool before my children could swim.”

Also the owners didn’t come and introduce them selves or even say hello so we felt we were intruding on their property for the whole week as we weren’t formally welcomed into their property when we arrived and also after having a power cut for a whole night due to a storm no one came to see if everything was alright the next morning which didn’t make us feel very welcome or wanted on their property, on the plus side there was the cutest dog who visited everyday and kept my daughter entertained and as already said the cottage and it’s surroundings was beautiful

- Ms Street, August 2020

Thank you so much for your feedback. We are very sorry for any inconvenience caused by the wasps nest that was in the vacinity, this was removed at the earliest opportunity. Due to the current ongoing situation, a meet and greet was not deemed appropriate. We are glad you enjoyed the cottage and the area and thank you for your kind comments. Sykes owner relations

“Primrose Cottage is one of three cottages in a lovely courtyard setting with the main house nearby.”

Jacqui was lovely and couldn’t do enough to make sure our stay was as comfortable and pleasant as possible. We had a selection of items as a welcome pack including some lovely local cake, jams and bread and a chilled bottle of wine in the fridge - lovely! The cottage was clean and very cosy. The swimming pool and hot tub were superb and a real luxury. The cottage is well placed to explore Cheshire and the Peaks. We enjoyed some local walks as well as the lovely Rudyard Lake and Tittesworth Reservoir. Very happy to recommend Jacqui and Mark for a fabulous holiday experience!

“We all had a fantastic time at primrose cottage.”

A very relaxed holiday this has been for us all and really home from home. The kids are missing seeing scrappy & Bella every day and the pool was a real treat! We will definitely be returning again!

Miss Boaler May 2019

“We had an amazing stay here!”

We loved the hot tub and the pool and made the most of it. We managed to get out and try the local pubs and attended a beer festival while staying which was lovely. We came here as two young couples who needed a relaxing break from everyday life and we really found it here. The kitchen was perfect we managed to cook all our meals in the kitchen and Asda wasn’t too far away for us to go and buy the food in! Highly recommend and can’t wait to stay again.

“Excellent location, with many attractions, interesting towns and beautiful countryside within an easy drive.”

Owners on site who were most welcoming and helpful. The cottage was very comfortable, well appointed and warm. This is the second time that I have used Sykes Holiday Cottages and I have not been impressed with the efficiency of the administration - a slow response to acknowledging payment and a the boast of providing a location guide being inappropriate for this cottage's location i.e. the North Wales suggestions were 80 to 100 miles away. The same applied to the previous cottage that I hired from Sykes Holiday Cottages.

“Little gem”

Fabulous pool and spa. Cottage is cute, well equipped and on a lovely rural farm. Take care booking through Sykes as they have this listed as N Wales / Snowdonia, but Snowdon is over 2 hours away. There are some nice villages and walks locally. Would also recommend the nearby Bear's head.

- trippytop, February 2019
Mr Buck February 2019

“The cottage it’s self was fantastic and I would recommend it to anybody, the pool area really tops the whole experience off.”

My only complaint is the way it says North Wales & Snowdonia on the main listing it is not in north Wales or anywhere near it luckily we were not meeting friends this time or it would of turned into a very expensive taxi ride £100 plus.

“Another wonderful stay”

Had yet another wonderful stay. Really cant fault primrose cottage. Everything was spotlessly clean cottage and surrounding area. Loved the little extras. Heating was on for us arriving after a long drive and there was everything there to grab a quick cuppa. Our 10 year old loves the pool, was desperate to get in it each day. Its brilliant being able to reserve it for your own use although to be fair we wouldnt mind sharing. There is a garage a short walk away for milk and papers and a small shopping area a few miles drive away. Nothing is too much trouble for Jacqui and Mark. Cant wait to book our next visit

“I had a lovely holiday in a lovely warm comfortable cottage with a splendid swimming pool and hot tub next door-what a treat!”

Jacqui was so friendly and welcoming,she made me really feel at home and had gone to the extra trouble of decorating the cottages in time for Christmas.l shall be booking again.

“Wonderful Family Break”

We visited primrose cottage as a family of four for a half term break and could not have been happier. We were greeted by the lovely owners on arrival who gave lots of information about the local area ( places to visit, tips on good restaurants etc) it was a much appreciated warm welcome . The cottage itself is modern, clean spacious and well eqquiped for four people, and thanks to the pool and hot tub on-site we even had a couple of days without leaving site! A wonderful break I would highly recommend and will definitely be returning to.

“Excellent holiday”

This was a fab holiday for my family beautiful views, clean and very friendly. Jackie was excellent with the kids, also advising us where best to eat and where to visit. The pool and Jacuzzi were amazing!!! Already booked to come back can't wait to see you all

“Exceeded Expectations”

From the start Jacky was so helpful with our booking nothing was too much trouble that we knew we that we would be in good hands. Upon arrival our cottage was so clean it almost brand new, the grounds around were so well kept that there is clear attention to detail and everywhere is so clean. The photographs of the pool and Jacuzzi do not do it justice it is simply one of the best places to relax and unwind. The owners Jacky and Mark have such local knowledge that finding a great restaurant every evening was a breeze. From the start our expectations were exceeded and we can't thank Jacky enough for all her help what a gem in the Cheshire countryside. We will defiantly be back again soon.

Mr Lloyd November 2018

“Thankyou I had a lovely stay whilst I was on tour.”

The cottage had wonderful space and was very clean. The host was so friendly and went out of her way to help me. Very warm and cosy in the wintertime too! The only very small thing I would say for improvement was if there was some mood lighting/lamp for in the evening when downstairs relaxing. The owners of this cottage clearly have put alot of time and effort into making this place feel great. Well decorated and the swimming pool and hot tub was a real treat! Thank you so so much would highly recommend and would stay again x

- Mr Lloyd, November 2018

Thank you for your feedback. We are glad you enjoyed your stay. We have now added lamps downstairs to improve the lighting. Sykes owner relations

“Great place to stay”

What a lovely place to stay! We found a little welcome pack for us which was very welcome and treats for the dog as well! The cottage is very comfy and well equipped with oven, hob and washing machine, with tumble dryers also available if needed. The cottages swimming pool is excellent too, the kids and I loved it was like getting into a big warm bath and had a good few hours playing and soaking in there! Throw a slide and hot tub in the mix and it’s a great addition to the cottage. We spoke with Jacqui the owner when we got there, who was very friendly and told us of some good places to eat etc and that was very useful! The cottage is in a very peaceful place which would be great for walking dogs etc but also good to escape for some peace and quiet for a bit if that’s what you want. It’s also close, very close - as in less than 10 mins drive to Sandbach and Congleton - where you can find food a plenty with everything from Chinese to Indian to fish and chips and pizza. We know, we tried several of them! A little further afield is Crewe where you can find things like Nando’s and Frankie and Bennys. It’s also very close to the Peak District where we spent several days walking near Bakewell and Buxton. There is so much to do you will be spoiled for choice. The Peaks can be a bit of a drive though so be prepared to travel a little bit to find the best if you go that way. Overall a great place to visit and stay, and if we go back that way one day would gladly look to rebook and go again.

Mr Alderdice October 2018

“Lovely cottage very good welcome package.”

Pool was very good especially if you have kids. Not really any shops or restaurants within walking distance if you don,t want to drive. Only negative point where the beds very creaky and low to the floor, could maybe invest in good quality beds.

- Mr Alderdice, October 2018

Thank you so much for your feedback. We are happy to say we have now upgraded the beds. Sykes owner relations
Mrs Travis July 2018

“The cottage is lovely, the pool and pool facilities are fantastic and the owners delightful!”

There was a fantastic welcome pack of coffee, tea, fruit juice, milk, sugar, jam, bread, butter, wine and beer! This is situated within an hour of Liverpool, the Peak District and North Wales so we had amazing days out and highly recommend staying here. We will definitely be returning.

- Mrs Travis, July 2018
Mrs Ashworth July 2018

“An absolutely lovely place, the owners made us and our grandchildren really welcome.”

The swimming pool and hot tub are a real highlight, perfect for the kids. The welcome pack was a nice touch, I couldn't decide on tea or wine to start with! Good places to visit - Sandbach, pottery painting at Astbury, kids playground at Brereton, and Brereton heath nature reserve for dog walking. The peak district is near enough to drive over to as well. I'd definitely recommend this cottage.

- Mrs Ashworth, July 2018
Ms Quigley June 2018

“There were no hitches.”

All information was accurate. We were travelling with Irish Ferries - the ferry was out of service and we had stress ensuring that our travel plans could change. This was in stark contrast to the reliability with the holiday accommodation booking. The family were welcoming and we had a great time.

- Ms Quigley, June 2018

“Absolutely AMAZING.”

.. so friendly and helpful. Really enjoyed the stay and the place. Pool was a bouns n hot tub. Fantastic family made us all feel so welcome

- Mrs Kemp, March 2018
Mrs Sanders January 2018

“Really beautiful and well presented cottage.”

Children's facilities (ie cot and highchair) were of a good standard. The swimming pool was just fantastic, with on site towels, showers and toiletries provided making it really easy to go swimming with a young toddler. Location perfect for lots of great pubs and plenty of things to do with our little one including a lovely animal farm (Wheelock). A generous welcome pack-tea, coffee, butter, jam, fresh bread, wine and beer! Thoroughly enjoyed our break.
