“A wonderful cottage in a beautiful setting, would highly recommend”
Ms Parslow February 2020

“Lovely cosy cottage with lovely views, in easy distance of Buxton and places of interest and walks on the doorstep!”

The underfloor heating was well needed as we had two storms to contend with throughout our stay, must say the extractor fan vents in both the bathroom and kitchen never shut up banging with the winds!!
Mr Brewer November 2019

“Lovely accomadation in a fantastic location with great views and walks right on the doorstep Would thoroughly recomend”
Mrs Doughty November 2019

“Sykes provides quality properties.”

Listing tells you all you need to know when booking. This latest visit to Skylark proved that. Although the weather was poor we had a lovely warm cosy cottage for us and our dog to return to. Thanks.

“Wife's 40th birthday treat”

We were so pleased when we arrived to find a beautiful place to stay. It was such lovely accommodation. The surrounding area was some of the most stunning scenery we have seen. We would definitely stay again and would highly recommend to others to stay here.
Mrs Tunnard October 2019

“We had a wonderful experience booking through Sykes cottage and the cottage was just wonderful, cosy, clean and in a very good location for peace and quiet as well as a village in close proximity.”
Mr Constable September 2019

“The accommodation was just perfect.”

It was a surprise weekend for my wife's 40th and we couldn't have been more pleased. The surroundings were fantastic and we will definitely book with Sykes again.
Mr Young September 2019

“Well equipped and very comfortable accommodation.”

Very quiet location in ideal position to visit local attractions with many walks right on doorstep. Would highly recommend.
Mrs Wellard August 2019

“Just a slight update of kitchen equipment needed and the settees are a bit uncomfortable.”

Otherwise it's a lovely cosy cottage.
Mrs Rountree August 2019

“Lovely time in a peaceful cottage.”

Although there were people in the neighbouring houses, we heard absolutely nothing from them - each house is suitably secluded. Would recommend and would definitely return.
Mrs Sibley June 2019

“A small, well equipped apartment in a fantastic setting.”

The views from the lovely patio are stunning.
Ms Smith June 2019

“Fabulous accommodation in a wonderful location.”

The owners have thought of everything to make your stay perfect, even milk and biscuits on arrival. Great location for exploring the area. Can't wait to go again!
Mr Carey June 2019

“The cottage was very comfortable and the under floor heating was an excellent touch.”

The weather was terrible but we felt at home.
Miss Lumley May 2019

“This is our second stay at this cottage.”

The cottage has everything you need for your stay. Welcome milk and biscuits a very nice touch. Owners on hand if needed. Cottage is situated close to many walks and the pubs near by do lovely food. We all had a lovely time and will be back.
Mr Furnell May 2019

“What a stunning location and beautiful cottage.”

This was an ideal location for our stay and was beyond our expectations. We were made to feel very welcome. We would highly recommend a stay at this location and will be looking to book to go back soon
Mrs Howarth March 2019

“Amazing cottage with stunning views everything we could have wished for, spotless, so quite warm and cosy loved it, so many nice walks and lovely things to see would highly recommend be back again.”
Miss Vann March 2019

“What a lovely place to stay.”

We had a wonderful time, as did our elderly cat, who particularly liked the underfloor heating. The cottage was very warm. One thing that we would have liked was a standard lamp or additional table lamps for the evening as we found the ceiling lights a little harsh for relaxing with a glass of wine and a good book. I'm being picky though. We've already recommended Skylark to several friends.
Mr Settle January 2019

“We got snowed in & the owners said we could stay over the weekend if we needed.”

We stayed an extra night then managed to get out. Lovely gesture by them. The cottage was well appointed and a lovely place to stay. Owners were friendly and helpful.
Miss Madelin January 2019

“Beautiful cottage and location.”

The biscuits and milk upon arrival was a nice touch. Only one complaint was the creeky bed, which disturbed our sleep.
Mrs Freer January 2019

“Skylark cottage is set in a beautiful,peaceful setting.”

We loved the cottage and it felt like home as soon as we arrived. The cottage is equipped with everything you need. Hair dryer, iorn and iorn board, clothes airers. The kitchen is fully equipped and the owners even supplied basic cooking ingredients. There are lots of walking routes from Longnor so you don't even have to use your car. The owners have supplied a very good information pack full of places to visit and walk. We would definitely like to stay at the cottage again.
Mrs Hodds November 2018

“We had a wonderful time, the cottage was clean & very well kept with all the comforts of home.”

The only slight criticism I would have is that the property would benefit from a king size bed. The double was a little uncomfortable (for me) but certainly not a deal breaker & wouldn't put us off returning :)
Mr Hunter October 2018

“Skylark was literally paradise.”

The location was superb, the cottage was perfect, the welcome was warm and the views were stunning. So good infact we are re booking for next year but this time for 2 weeks!
Miss Russell October 2018

“Lovely clean modern dog friendly cottage with welcoming helpful hosts.”

Nice to have some biscuits and milk on arrival. Quiet idyllic setting. Longnor is a convienient location for walking the peaks/golf courses/mooching round the towns, with nice local pubs. We had a lovely break.
Miss Nicholls August 2018

“A little piece of heaven!”

! Beautiful cottage with a little welcome gift of milk and biscuits. We will be coming back.
Mr Easteal June 2018

“Loved our stay at skylarke would return again found the owners to be very pleasent and very help full”
Mrs Allen May 2018

“The directions that we were sent by Sykes actually took us to Church Cottage at Chelmonton,about six miles from Skylark Cottage.”

Fortunately the owner of The Church Inn is also the owner of Skylark Cottage and was able to give us the correct instructions. Everything else about the cottage and the holiday were delightful.
Mr Heaton May 2018

“The location was lovely and quiet although only a short walk to a couple of pubs.”

High spec and very clean accommodation. Very pleased
Dr Craig May 2018

“Enjoyed our stay at Skylark.”

Beautiful setting with nice hosts and very convenient for visiting the area. We would certainly recommend it.
Mr Mingay April 2018

“There are three cottage accommodations at this site all finished and furnished to a very high specification.”

The owners are on site (if required) and there is a very good handbook provided for each premises. Farmhouse property in beautiful surroundings where the major attractions are walking, peace, and the changing landscapes. Second time of visiting and will be going again. Thank you so much.
