“Fantastic location for Alton Towers, on the doorstep.”

Lovely cosy cottage with log burner. Perfect for family and friends to get together.

“Heythrop was slightly run down, the flooring in the lounge and kitchen was damaged when we arrived and the dishwasher although working wasn’t easy to load.”

We chose Heythrop due to the location to Alton towers which was perfect, but unfortunately couldn’t use the outside areas to a very aggressive Pheasent who was keen to attack anyone who dared step outside the door.

“The owner is taking the proverbial.”

The place is filthy; the dishwasher is broken, the fridge is broken; the oven filthy, the hob filthy, the bathrooms filthy, beds not made or changed. The bathrooms a disgrace, urine stains and pubic hair in beds, dirtiest pillows we have ever seen. Sykes should be ashamed to continue listing this property. I will be surprised if Sykes publish this feedback!

Thank you for your feedback I am sorry to hear your comments regarding your holiday at Heythrop The owner is very concerned about the issues you have raised as they weren’t made aware of any of this during your stay Your feedback is not typical of the comments that Customers leave. We want all our Customers to have a fantastic holiday & report any issues that they have during their stay so they can be resolved. Sykes owner relations

“The cottage is well furnished and in a prime location, very good viewing from the cottage, the deer farm is close to the cottage and option of morning walk, fresh air makes mind fresh.”

If any one would like to take a long breath and love to see natural beauty I think this cottage is perfect. Car parking is available too. We enjoyed a lot.

“Perfect location for a family visit to Alton Towers Theme Park with a 10 minute walk to the gate”

“Perfect for a large group.”

A lovely place to stay and just right for our large group. There was plenty of space including the outside patio area where we enjoyed a barbecue. We had reasonably good weather and enjoyed exploring the locality. The proximity to alton Towers was a bonus as it is within walking distance. The only complaints we had were just minor niggles as the bedside lamps (one in each room)were not working. We also found that the lighting at nigh-time in the living room was inadequate. The shower screen had been broken previously and needed replacing, the owner suggested we continue using the shower, however this led to constant water puddles on the floor and we had to buy microfibre cloths to place in the area. On the whole we all enjoyed our stay and would definitely book again if we needed to cater for a large party.

“Excellant and comfortable break”

Superb accomodation. Excellant location for alton Towers, walking distance and saved hassle of parking. Accomodation was very spacious and ample room for 8 adults and 2 children. Great having the 4 bathrooms. The scenery surrounding the cottage was breath taking and created a very relaxing atmosphere making us feel rested after out holiday. The living area was spacious and plenty room for all to sit comfortably.

“Brilliant stay in fantastic accommodation”

We booked this cottage through Sykes and the whole process was very easy. The group was five couples (all old university friends) and this was virtually the only property we could find with five bedrooms and four bathrooms. Four double rooms (two with en suite) plus a twin room and two bathrooms was just brilliant for our purposes. We loved the massive lounge and the bid dinner table and benches which we could all sit round for a meal. We were travelling from around teh UK so the location was great too - right in the middle for us. The cottage had everything you needed (apart from bin liners!) - and if that's the only fault we can find you can see how much we liked it! Would definitely recommend this. Almost don't want to as we want to keep it a secret so it doesn't get fully booked!!

“chilled out relaxed fun times!”

the house is lovely and the grounds are tidy and well presented, there was ample parking and it snowed when we were there and the steep driveway was gritted. The bathrooms were very clean as were all the living spaces. The beds were very comfy and the kitchen was clean and well supplied with disehes plates pans etc! it was lovely all sitting chatting round the fire and there was planty of seating for all 10 of us! We would book again and are looking into going back there this year!
