• "We had a lovely stay in Faye cottage."

  Clean, cosy, comfortable and very homely. The stairs are steep but we did expect this reading the description and it wasn't a problem. Lovely little enclosed garden, safe for our dog to enjoy too and lots of birds visited which we enjoyed. It's position in Edwinstowe village, which was lovely and very friendly, is ideal, with amenities just around the corner and five minute stroll to Sherwood forest. No problem with parking on the street just off the lane. It is a lovely area to explore and we would definitely like to return.

  Thank you Jill for your lovely feedback! I'm quite proud of our garden ,& it's nice to know we're attracting wildlife! We did notice the cottage was left " Spick & Span" Thank you! & We would love to have you return! Best wishes, Carol & Paul' & thanks once again, this means a lot to us. Property Owner

  The extra space in the conservatory and a reasonable size garden made it feel spacious for two people. Comfy bed and proper wardrobes with plenty of storage. Will definitely be our first choice next time we venture into Edwinstowe!

• "This is a wonderful cottage."

  We really enjoyed our time there. The private garden was an added bonus. The bird song was very uplifting everyday. All very well maintained, we found it homely and comfortable. Food shops and restaurants nearby, yet the cottage is lovely and quiet. There is such a lot to do in the area. We would highly recommend

We were surprised how the all the flowers had grown in the garden! Hope you had a safe journey home, & thank you once again for your lovely kind words . Best Wishes Carol & Paul Property Owner

• "This little cottage is nestled between 2 others in a quiet, private lane."

  Don't be put off by having to leave your car on the road, it's a few steps away. And well worth a small compromise. Plus, you can unload right outside the door. Inside is just gorgeous, if you like, quirky, character, it oozes charm. Spotlessly clean, has everything you could want, absolutely loved this place.

  Thank you so much!! Doubt we could compose a better description if we tried!! But then there would be no surprises would there? (smiling!) So happy you enjoyed your stay! We love it too ! & Thank you for the lovely card ! it was very well received! I rushed round to my friend nextdoor to show her! Hope you all had a pleasant' & safe journey back home! & Thank you again! Kind Regards , Carol & Paul Property Owner

• "Faye Cottage in Edwinstowe is a truly delightful place to stay, perfectly combining comfort, style, and an unbeatable location."

  Close to the heart of the village, it offers easy access to local shops, pubs, and the beautiful surrounding countryside, making it an ideal base for exploring the area. The cottage itself is wonderfully cosy, with a warm and inviting atmosphere that makes you feel at home from the moment you arrive. Every detail has clearly been thoughtfully considered, from the soft furnishings to the overall layout, creating a space that is both practical and relaxing. One of the standout features is the gorgeous décor. It strikes a perfect balance between charming character and modern elegance, with tasteful touches throughout that give the cottage a unique and stylish feel. It’s the kind of place where you genuinely enjoy spending time, whether you’re unwinding after a day out or simply enjoying a quiet morning. Overall, Faye Cottage is a fantastic choice for anyone looking for a comfortable, beautifully presented stay in an excellent location. Highly recommended.

  Thank you so much for your wonderful comments, Believe us, it was very warmimg to read & we feel made up! We love it too & have even thought of leaving our own cottage to move in but, unfortunately it's not big enough for our needs , Thank you once again! & we're delighted you enjoyed your stay! Kindest of Regards, Carol & Paul Property Owner

• "Cosy & comfortable base for my week's stay in this lovely under rated part of the England I used to call home."

  Kitchen is adequately equipped but not outstanding. Heating in bedroom needs sorting. Hence the four star rating.

Overall we hope you had a pleasant stay . On your enquiry about renting from us directly, We apologise but any bookings are arranged only through SYKES HOLIDAY COTTAGES & not personally through us, Sorry for any inconvi enience, Hope you had a safe & enjoyable journey home,Best Wishes, Carol & Paul Property Owner

• "Although we have taken a while to submit our review (just a busy time for us), we spent a lovely Xmas at Faye Cottage."

  Softly lit, warm, and beautifully decorated for our Xmas arrival, we found it cosy and comfortable – and I agree with another reviewer that the pictures don’t do it full justice. We were worried the bed might be too soft for us, but it actually achieved that happy state of being soft but supportive. We very much appreciated the welcome message and its accompanying gift which included Xmas table décor and treats as well as wine, milk and butter etc, albeit that the Cottage is well-placed to pick up anything you might need from the nearby Morrisons Local or Co-op as well as pubs and restaurants. The location of the cottage itself is peaceful despite the ease of access to the main road, bus routes to Mansfield/Nottingham etc and yet a couple of minutes further and you are in the peace and nature of Sherwood Forest; we took a somewhat longer walk to Rufford Abbey (but we could have taken the bus had we wished). The lack of an oven (though there is both microwave and air fryer) which we both knew to be the case and would not normally bother us, was a little more challenging at Christmas (but we managed to knock up something suitably festive nevertheless). The stairs are a little narrow at the bottom, so you need to watch your feet, but not too bad if you are reasonably mobile. The smallest of niggles were a saucepan that didn’t seem to be compatible with the hob and the shower pressure/flow was not great. A couple of suggestions would be a colander in the kitchen and a nightlight using the socket outside the bathroom would have made the up and down entry to that room from the bedroom (with the stairs just outside the bedroom door) feel a little less challenging at night. All that said, we wouldn’t hesitate to stay here again and Carol and Paul are clearly generous and thoughtful hosts who even followed up when they suspected we may have left some items behind.

  What a lovely review!! We're very pleased you enjoyed your Christmas & We'll take on board your suggestions ' We totally agree the stairs are steep, but, we thought it was mentioned on the Sykes information notes,but, nevertheless we will recheck & maybe put more photos on to make guests aware., We are lucky to be on the edge of Sherwood forest & its lovely leafy walks, We do hope you both decide to return in the future & thank you so much for the wonderful indepth review!! It was very well received!!Thank you!! Carol & Paul Property Owner

• "Beautiful homely cottage."

  I don't think the photos capture it's real character and beauty. Very clean and a lovely welcome pack when we arrived. The location of the cottage was perfect. Access to the forest is a 5 minute walk, plenty of places to eat in the village and handy co-op less than a 5 minute walk away. Would definitely recommend and consider staying here again.

  So glad you enjoyed your stay! & Thank you for the lovely comments on our cottage & the location, It's very much appeciated! Thank you so much! Property Owner
