Courtyard Cottage

We greatly enjoyed our visit to the Courtyard Cottage at Meeson Hall, where the surroundings are beautiful, historically interesting and immensely peaceful.

Comfortable accommodation, all the facilities one could wish for in a most attractive home, and a welcoming host who, with the gardener, were the sources of a great deal of local information and advice - and the welcoming supply of home made jams and pickles, and eggs were much appreciated. We will return!

My wife and I had a wonderful 4 night stay at this delightful cottage.

Everything you could possibly need is provided and Mark one of the owners was very welcoming and helpful. Unfortunately we didn't meet Adrian the other owner. The welcome pack was also very well received! We wouldn't hesitate in coming back here should we visit the area again.

Beautiful rural location, very peaceful.

The property is so characterful and very well appointed. Mark was very welcoming and informative. A great base from which to explore the beautiful county. Will definitely return.

Stunningly gorgeous cottage, lovingly restored to preserve the original features, the place offered every little thing to make our stay comfortable.

Relaxing countryside walks at your doorstep and great hospitality by the owners. The welcome package was very generous and supplied every thing we wanted for the first night/ breakfast. I would highly recommend it for a peaceful break and definitely visit again!

This is a beautiful, warm and comfortable property with excellent facilities.

The owner Mark is welcoming, friendly and very informative about the local area. The welcome pack is excellent as are the jams and chutneys available to purchase. We walked from the cottage around quiet country lanes and everyone greeted us. There is a wealth of places to visit within an hours drive but coming home to such a cosy house after a cold and damp day was fabulous. We intend to return- the best Sykes accommodation we have stayed in.

A delightful, stylish cottage in a quiet spot to spend Christmas week.

Lots of extras you don’t get elsewhere. Owners on hand and extremely helpful. Made us welcome and comfortable with tasty treats which we were able to purchase extra supplies on our way home. Apple and Sultana Chutney was delicious! Thanks Mark for our stay and hope to see you again next year.

We received a wonderful welcome to a beautifuly maintained and picturesque cottage which surpassed our expectations.

We had everything we needed from the off and felt right at home. Being able to explore the beautiful grounds was an added bonus and the cottage was well situated to explore the towns and villages in the region. A wonderful holiday and we hope to return.

Our stay at the Courtyard cottage in was truly perfect.

The owner was on hand from the start to welcome us, giving a guided tour of the cottage’s facilities. We were warmly welcomed with homemade bread, jam and chutney in the kitchen. Such a relaxing and peaceful stay, in a beautiful setting with a good location for visiting north Shropshire. We will be planning our return for sure!!

tastefully decorated cottage, quiet location, generous welcome pack, lovely hosts - altogether one of the best holiday homes we have booked.

Such a wonderful cottage, EXACTLY what we needed, comfortable, quiet and cosy.

Well situated for gentle days out in interesting places. A perfect week.

Courtyard Cottage is a delightful period home in a beautiful, peaceful setting.

Tastefully decorated, with an abundance of original features. Our host was attentive and very helpful, and the generous welcome pack which included home made chutneys and jam was a perfect touch. Thankyou! We would definitely stay again and highly recommend Courtyard cottage. We look forward to seeing our hosts again.

My daughter and I enjoyed our holiday at courtyard cottage.

The medieval character, old wooden beams, small windows, wooden floors etc. gave a nice old homely feel. The host was friendly and helpful. The grounds were nicely kept, spacious and very relaxing to walk around. If the opportunity arises in the future to visit this part of the country, then we would certainly like to return to courtyard cottage.

The perfect stay!

A beautiful cottage in a lovely location with the most welcoming hosts we have ever met. We would definitely stay here again and wouldn't hesitate to recommend unreservedly to others. The cottage is peaceful, spotlessly clean and has everything you could possibly want for your stay. A delicious welcome pack awaited us with milk, fresh local eggs, homemade jam, bread, butter and chutney.

Very comfortable cottage, beautifully decorated.

Mark sets out a large welcome pack including homemade jam and chutney. Cleanliness is spotless. Plenty of space for upto 4 guests, well laid out so bedrooms are at either end of the cottage so privacy for all guests. Very quiet location, beautiful courtyard to sit in plus the extensive grounds to walk around. Easy booking process with Sykes.

A perfect spot for a peaceful break in lovely countryside.

This property is full of interest and charm, set in the grounds of a beautiful manor house. We enjoyed sitting in the lovely courtyard right outside our door in the sunshine. Mark and Adrian were very considerate and kind hosts, taking time to show us around the Hall and other letting properties there.

An absolutely beautiful holiday cottage that we thoroughly enjoyed staying at.

We were met by the owner Mark, who was the nicest, friendliest host we have ever met. Nothing was too much trouble for Mark and he looked after us incredibly well whilst we stayed there. The cottage is set in immaculate grounds , in a lovely courtyard. It’s peaceful and tranquil and perfect for a rest and a break away from busy lives. The cottage itself was immaculately clean and had everything you needed. I wouldn’t hesitate to book a stay here and it comes highly recommended. We have stayed at many holiday cottages over the years and this is definitely one of the very best. Thank you Mark and Adrian, we hope to see you again soon.

The property is in a beautiful location and is really lovely.

Spotlessly clean and a really nice welcoming basket. Unfortunately the owner was extremely discourteous and this ruined our experience. For this reason, I would not recommend this property.

Property was lovely and the owner welcoming.

Cottage was well-appointed and having the logburner already going when we arrived (at a pre-confirmed time) was a nice touch. It was spacious for 4, with the pantry in the kitchen providing lots of storage space (not always a given in self-catering properties). The courtyard garden was nice and being able to access the grounds was less important to us during the autumn (although it was great to have the space for children to play outside). During the summer, it would be great to be able to sit outside in the courtyard. We really enjoyed our stay.

What a find.

Such a lovely cottage, can’t recommend highly enough. Great location for exploring Shropshire and set in a peaceful & relaxing location -so good to be near nature . Friendly and informative hosts who were lovely and generous. We forgot our complementary jam

We had a wonderful time in Courtyard Cottage.

It's a beautiful cottage in a stunning location. Thank you for the welcome gifts and being so welcoming to our family. We had an amazing time!

We recently stayed at Courtyard Cottage and had a fantastic family holiday.

The cottage was very well equipped and very comfortable for a family of five. The owners are very welcoming and professional. We look forward to staying again in the future.

Having read lots of reviews for the Courtyard Cottage, I can't add anything to what has already been said, but to confirm our experience was amazing.

Such a lovely, relaxing and beautiful cottage. Host Mark was welcoming and friendly. Wouldn't hesitate to stay again.

Beautiful 17th century cottage, immaculately maintained and an absolute privilege to stay.

The hosts Adrian @ Mark are without doubt the most professional & friendly people we have ever met and supplied everything that is needed. 10 out of 10! We cannot wait to stay again, an absolute delight x

A very clean and comfortable cottage with all needs met.

Pretty courtyard and a helpful and charming host.

We had a wonderful week in courtyard cottage.

We took an 8 and a 10 year old along. They loved investigating the extensive safe grounds. The house was warm and cosy and had everything we needed. The owner, Mark, was very approachable and helpful and lived in the adjoining building but he was not intrusive. Equipment was good quality and everything was very clean.

The accommodation was beautiful and our hosts could not have been kinder, more helpful and more welcoming.

Our cottage contained everything you could wish for and a generous welcome hamper into the bargain. Would love to stay again.

Courtyard Cottage was an absolute delight and exceeded our very high expectations.

Unfortunately, our car broke down and it took the AA four days to fix it which we were extremely grateful to them for. That said, being unable to travel far for those 4 days wasn't a problem because Courtyard Cottage was so comfortable, cosy, well equipped and full of beautiful character. The grounds are also vast and beautifully kept. Mark & Adrian were also extremely welcoming and supportive (especially reference our car issue) which was much appreciated. We would love to return and cannot recommend Courtyard Cottage enough.

Mark was an excellent host and treated us extremely well.

He helped with providing recommendations for things to do and places to see and all were superb. He is an excellent ambassador for your company. No complaints!!

Wonderful cottage having been refurbished to retain original features.

Beautifully maintained with plenty of space inside and out. Owners on hand for any requests. Loads to see and do in the area.

Really delightful cottage and the setting is perfect for relaxation and de-stressing.

A very comfortable cottage, equipped to a high standard in a very tasteful way.

The property has lots of character and the location is perfect. The owners are helpful and this is a delightful part of the world.

The property was truly perfect.

It was very clean and well equipped with everything we needed. The grounds were stunning in a tranquil setting. The owner was really lovely he met us as we arrived and showed us around the property. I highly recommend this property. We will most certainly be returning in the future.

Courtyard Cottage is a wonderful place to stay.

Mark is very friendly and helpful (giving us some tips of where to visit) and gave us a very warm welcome. There was a lovely welcome pack of bread, butter, milk, tea, coffee and homemade jam. There is plenty of room in the cottage and although there were only two of us we thought there would still be ample room for more people. The bed was extremely comfortable and the kitchen had all the equipment you could need. The courtyard was beautiful and a good place to watch wildlife that flitted in and out (mainly birds). We would thoroughly recommend it.

A beautiful cottage that is furnished and equipped to an amazing standard .

Cleanliness second to none I have ever stayed in . The hosts were friendly and very welcoming . It felt like home from home . The courtyard was the cherry on the cake ! The welcome pack was an appreciated extra . We would love to return.

Courtyard Cottage is a very beautiful building set in glorious countryside.

Every amenity is provided and the owners couldn’t be more helpful amd friendly I really enjoy my holidays in the Courtyard and would recommend it to everyone.

We had a wonderful stay at this beautifully renovated property.

The owner met us on arrival and was very welcoming and friendly. Mark also gave us great advice on the local area especially on the best places to eat. The property itself is stunning. Beautifully presented and extremely cosy. We had everything we needed down to towels, a welcome basket and everything you could possibly need in the kitchen. The gardens are lovely to stroll around and the location is perfect for relaxing in a quiet idyllic spot. We loved our stay here and thank you so much for your hospitality.

Very warm and cosy atmosphere inside and out.

Definitely recommend.

The cottage is incredibly comfortable, welcoming, beautifully and authentically restored, clean, equipped with pretty much everything needed for our stay.

We were warmly welcomed by the property ower and left alone to enjoy the cottage and the peaceful, beautiful surroundings yet we knew we could contact the property owner if need be. We highly recommend this cottage for it is the perfect place for a relaxing break and a real countryside experience. London felt very far away indeed.

Excellent stay, will come back again.

It was a short break and made a lovely base for a trip to Shrewsbury.

A very beautiful property with a lovely feel about it.

A cosy fireplace and tastefully decorated. Nice grounds to walk around and friendly hosts.

We returned yesterday from a wonderful stay at Courtyard Cottage.

Mark and Adrian were warm and welcoming from the moment we arrived. The cottage was wonderful - spotlessly clean with everything we could possibly need. The cottage is well-furnished, and we found everything to be of high quality. The beds are comfortable, the heating was easy to control and the house was warm and toasty in a chilly November. There's a lovely log burner with kindling, firelighters and wood provided to get you started, but the house was so cosy anyway we didn't use it. Lots of light switches mean you can turn the lights on & off from lots of different areas in the house which was great. There were plenty of coat hangers in the walk-in wardrobes, and a hairdryer (thank you! I forgot to bring mine!). Some of the sockets were for 3 round pins, but there were plenty of normal sockets. The wifi was strong & reliable and the en-suite shower was hot & easy to use. The TV isn't a smart TV so don't plan to watch Netflix (wasn't a problem for us). We were given milk, eggs, jam, bread & butter, and tea, coffee and sugar. The website said to take your own tea towels but these were provided along with oven gloves, dishwasher tablets, washing up cloths, sponges & liquid, clingfilm & tin foil (very handy, thank you!), and there were plenty of spare toilet rolls. The cottage is in a wonderful area only 25 minutes from Shrewsbury, Ironbridge and Bridgnorth, and just over an hour from Chester. Mark gave us some great recommendations for places to eat. We especially enjoyed SpiceLand curry house in Woodbridge. Directions to the house on the website were perfect - it was easy to find, and our sat nav took us directly there anyway. The house is in a small hamlet so it's very rural and you definitely need a car, but this was part of its charm - and it was only a very short drive to the nearest shop. post office and restaurant. Would we return? Definitely. And we wouldn't hesitate to recommend the house to others.

A lovely cottage with fantastic period features.

It was a great location to visit some amazing places. The owners were super helpful in recommending places to visit and they were well worth the drives. Shower was a little temperamental and cubicle very small. Could do with better quality cooking pans/frying pans. Everything else was great.

Beautiful house in a beautiful location!

We had a fantastic time. A BIG thank you to Mark & Adrian for making us feel so welcome.

The courtyard was absolutely beautiful and the ground were pleasant to walk in.

We have had a blissful week at Courtyard Cottage.

The cottage is beautiful and very tastefully decorated, but also very comfortable and practical to stay in. The beds were comfy and the shower sufficiently powerful. The sitting room was inviting and spacious and the kitchen was very nice to cook in. Beyond the pretty courtyard, where we had supper most evenings, Meeson Hall has stunning grounds, providing a delightful backdrop with a rich history. Meeson is near many interesting places to visit and we were spoilt for choice in terms of day trips. Thanks for a lovely stay - we would love to come back!

Beautiful holiday cottage, very friendly and helpful owners.

Just to clarify as we weren't sure from the listing - there is one single room downstairs. Then two bedrooms upstairs - a twin with a bathroom opposite, and along the landing a king size with ensuite. The courtyard was a sun trap and the gardens great for relaxing. Lovely quiet location but lots of attractions within half an hours drive - we went to Ironbridge museums, RAF Cosford, Shrewsbury Prison, Hoo Zoo, Arlingham Court & Hawkestone Follies and a bit further afield to Drayton Manor - plenty to do with children.

The owners of courtyard cottage are very friendly and helpful.

The photos don't do justice to the cottage. The cottage was very comfortable and the best we've stayed in so far.

You, as a company, met our expectations.

However, the property’s owners and the property itself far exceeded our expectations (sorry if this sounds harsh but I firmly believe in credit where credit is due). I only authorise permission for this review to be used by Sykes (or the property owners) only if it is anonymised (you didn’t give me anywhere else to put this comment)

Courtyard Cottage is a gem of a find.

We had a week in this beautiful cottage which is superb. Everything you need is here and the hosts are and on hand if you need them. It's a fantastic place to stay and we will be back.

Mark and Adrian very friendly and welcoming.

Period cottage fabulous , spotless and very tastefully decorated. Quiet lanes, enjoyed wandering in the extensive garden, very peaceful. Great walks from the cottage but plan first as public footpath signs often obscured or removed!? Shrewsbury,Bridgenorth ,Much Wenlock and climbing the Wrekin were highlights and all four of us would definitely return.

Courtyard Cottage is a beauitiful property in superb grounds.

The property was clean and very comfortable. The owners made us very welcome and provided a lovely welcome pack. In the current situation with the covid-19 limitations we found the cottage an excellent place to stay. The property was well presented and gave us the confidence in the sanitisation procedures carried out there. Highly recommended.

Great cottage, great hosts, and lovely area to explore!

This is a truly beautiful cottage in the grounds of Meeson Hall.

Lots of herbs in the courtyard to cook with and free access to logs for the logburner in the massive fireplace. I bet this place is fantastic in the snow. Brand new kitchen just installed! Just fab alround.

A tastefully renovated barn conversion overlooking a very attractive courtyard.

The owners were very welcoming and helpful. It was probably one of the best holiday cottages we have ever stayed at.

Stunning cottage set in the most beautiful grounds.

It was so peaceful and ideal for a relaxing holiday. There was an excellent welcome pack which we enjoyed and the cottage was so well equipped that we were able to enjoy home-cooked meals eaten in the delightful dining kitchen. Such a great experience to stay in a Jacobean dwelling where you really felt the sense of history.

What a beautiful cottage this was in a lovely location.

Well equipped, charmingly furnished with modern conveniences, the owners providing a very welcome welcome pack after a delayed journey and a greeting in person on arrival. We were lucky enough to be given a tour of Meeson Hall which was impeccably presented and is testament to the highest standards Mark and Adrian set themselves. Wonderful.

Excellent home from home, good hosts, pleasant surroundings and beautiful countryside.

This please is absolutely amazing!

Highly recommend staying here :)

Stunning cottage in beautiful location.

Everything you could need is thoughtfully provided and the owners are very friendly and helpful.

An amazing cottage with fantastic facilities and lovely hosts.

The grounds are beautiful and the cottage so relaxing. Can't wait to come back!

Mark greated us on our arival and showed us to courtyard cottage which was better than the pictures showed .

a lovely cozy, quiet, and beautiful ground's to wonder round.

This was my second visit to the Courtyard Cottage and it still remains my favourite.

The privacy, comfort, and character of the cottage is matched by the owners, Adrian and Mark. They are there if you need them and make you very welcome. The attention to detail is 100%. The changes they have made to the grounds and the addition of The Bothy, the third holiday cottage is very exciting. I sincerely hope I am able to make it my third holiday stay in the very near future.

exceeded expectations gorgeous cottage, on a large estate, everything you would need there, nan gets couldn't have done more for you.

This was our 3rd visit to The Courtyard Cottage, good location and perfect place to switch off and relax.

Will definitely book again.

A quite extraordinary property difficult to describe.

Exotic or etcentric? Certainly unusual but very enjoyable. Sitting in the courtyard in evening was a particular delight. The property was very well equiped and comfortable. Many thanks to our very helpful hosts.

The cottage had loads of character , was immaculately clean , had a welcome pack with home made jam.

Directions were precise, with parking close to our accommodation. Lots to do in the area , we would recommend courtyard cottage to anyone wanting complete relaxation.

Courtyard Cottage always exceeds our expectations.

This is our third visit in this beautiful cottage, and as always it was a perfect experience. Our hosts are second to none, they do everything they can to help us have a perfect holiday, creating a lovely friendly environment . The welcome pack is a great beginning to our visit, without a worry about making that tea or coffee, when arriving after a long journey. A walk around the grounds on a evening is always something to enjoy, finding something different each time, with plenty of wild life to see. Shropshire is a beautiful county, with so many interesting places to visit, always knowing Courtyard Cottage is waiting to welcome us back. We hope to make our fourth visit. very soon.

Courtyard cottage was lovely with the most comfortable beds we have ever slept in.

The courtyard was a flower filled sun trap, very pleasant and peaceful to sit out in. The gardens were beautiful and a credit to the very hard working gardeners. A lovely peaceful haven to relax and rest. Thank you for a lovely holiday.

Excellent property with friendly helpful owners who can’t do enough for you so you can enjoy the delights of rural Shropshire and beyond.

Courtyard Cottage was a beautiful place to stay.

A lovely welcome from Adrian and Mark. The cottage is very well equipped and extemely comfortable. The cottage is set at the back of the Manor House in a peaceful setting. Guests can relax among the flower filled courtyard or stroll through the grounds of the property. A perfect place to stay in the country.

2nd stay at courtyard cottage perfect cottage & location for a relaxing break.

This is a wonderful cottage that feels more like home than a holiday let.

Everything you need is included and the building is fascinating. We were warmly welcomed by the owners and a great welcome pack was in the kitchen. The grounds to Meeson Hall are beautiful and although in a secluded location it's an easy drive to the main roads. We had a very relaxed few days and will certainly return.

Beautiful, warm cottage, lovely surroundings, welcoming hosts and lots to do in the area.

Appreciated the drinks and bread provided. Wouldn't hesitate to go back.

We are just home after a week staying at the beautiful Courtyard Cottage, and have to say that this was definitely the best cottage holiday we have ever had.

The cottage is beautifully furnished and full of character, with everything we needed to ensure a great stay. From the welcome pack of bread, home-made plum jam, eggs and milk, to the super comfy beds (first time I've stayed in any cottage when the bed was more comfortable than the one at home!), to the glorious courtyard with its riot of colours, it was perfect. Mark and Adrian were very welcoming and unobtrusive, and kindly gave us a tour of the Meeson Hall, which was amazing. The peace and tranquility of Courtyard Cottage made this a very relaxing and enjoyable holiday for us all, and the wi-fi is also very good, which kept my 14 year old happy! There is also a lot to do in the area, and we enjoyed trips to Ironbridge, historic Shrewsbury and our particular favourite trip was to Hawkstone Follies (which did leave us with rather sore feet, but was well worth it). A perfect cottage and perfect holiday, we would thoroughly recommend Courtyard Cottage to anyone looking for a quiet, relaxing break!

A lovely period cottage tastefully decorated, with with everything you need, including a welcome pack.

Peaceful location with grounds to explore and a good base for trips out. Mark and Adrian are excellent hosts, they happily gave us a tour of the main house took

Third stay at Meeson Hall - excellent owners, cottage and facilities - a gem in rural Shropshire.

We were warmly welcomed by Mark & Adrian.

They kindly showed us through their beautiful hotel before showing us to our accommodation. It is such a beautiful 17C property. Our accommodation opened out onto a flower filled courtyard. It had everything we could wish for, including a lovely welcoming gift basket. We loved returning to the quietness of the place and enjoyed the wildlife surrounding us. Would definitely return.

We had visited this cottage before, and our return confirmed all our memories.

A spacious and unique property adjoining a hotel, but with a high level of privacy. Kind hosts who provided a welcome pack and who ensured that we were well informed re facilities. We had access to a colourful courtyard full of flowers and packed with interesting features, plus access to the extensive grounds. We felt relaxed and at home, and had easy access to the surrounding area and places of interest. Lovely!

We came across Sykes by enquiring at Holiday Lettings.

Their involvement was limited to that of any portal. The property was something else again! SUPERB! It was infinitely more than we expected because the listing details failed to do it justice. The way that modern amenities had been built into such an old building was masterful. That the building has been recovered from being derelict by the present owners is a testament to their vision, imagination, sense of style etc etc etc!! Its position away in the country but within easy reach of Market Drayton, Newport and Telford is excellent as well as beautiful. So relaxing. With a big comfy bed - it is impossible not to enjoy. A walk around the gardens is well worthwhile as is a visit inside the tulip tree. Because our neice stayed in the B&B we were treated to a tour of the Hall itself which is another world again. The Owners were perfect hosts and extremely attentive - which we appreciated greatly. We would love to visit again. John & Alex Whittaker. After five years in New Zealand en route to a new life in beautiful Shropshire.

I was surprised not to find any hand soap in the property.

If I had not brought some special hand cleaner​ that we could all use I would have to make a special trip to buy some. I have never stayed anywhere without soap before. It was great to have the wood burner logs included. I would have liked a couple of serving dishes and spoons but we coped well enough without.

This is an outstanding property in a lovely location.

Very clean and comfortable accommodation which had a lovely atomsphere. Original features abound. We would love to visit again. The owners are friendly and accessible and showed us round the other properties on site and the Hall. These are different, quirky due to the age of the buildings, tastefully and individually designed. Highly recommended.

Fantastic stay!

! Loved our cottage, which is updated with all the modern conveniences without sacrificing any of its historical charms. Everything we needed was thoughtfully provided by our welcoming hosts. Setting is peaceful and quiet, yet only a short drive from many attractions. One week was not long enough....

This was a perfect place to have a 2 week winter holiday.

The cottage was amazing, and the setting was fantastic. The owners were only too willing to show us around the main house and to tell us the history, which we found fascinating. We really enjoyed walking around the gardens to see so many snowdrops and crocuses, then to return to the cottage to the log fire. There was also plenty of places to visit in the area. We hope to return in the future.

Since booking my holiday cottage, I have been bombarded by emails from you.

Even when I had booked Cortyard cottage, I was still getting asked to book Courtyard Cottage. The cottage was excellent and I am happy for you to publish the feedback. The comments regarding Sykes are for your eyes only. Thank you

If you need to set a benchmark for self catering accommodation then look no further than Courtyard Cottage at Meeson Hall: from the thoughtful welcome pack to the highest quality linen and more.

We were greeted on our arrivall by a new luxurious throw for the sofa - as Mark and Adrian had immediately acted on a suggestion by the departing guests. Adrian and Mark are attentive hosts, without being intrusive. All you could wish for in idyllic surroundings. Which means we shall be returning in 2017 for our third consecutive year.

The cottage had everything we needed, it was warm, comfortable, spacious and beautifully decorated and stood in the most idyllic surroundings.

Our week was spent visiting the potteries and museums for which we bought annual passes, this proved to be the best value for money, there was plenty to see and experience regardless of age. As a family we had a wonderful time, meeting up with Mark and Adrian after a year meant we had a lot to talk about and it was good to see how the hall (Messon Hall) had been completed - truly spectacular! We believe a week in the cottage is great value for money and would highly recommend it- full marks.

The Courtyard Cottage was superb in every detail thanks to the skill and care of the kind hosts, Mark and Adrian.

We had a delightful quiet break in a beautiful property fully equipped with all provisions for which even the most discerning guest could wish. Everything from the stunning flower display to the lovely welcome pack and tasteful furnishings contributed to our enjoyment of a really special holiday. Thank you Sykes and Mark and Adrian!
