The Park

We had a great stay at The Park.

The property was comfortable and had all the equipment we needed (except a recycling bin in the property) . My only feedback is that there is no welcome info to explain pool booking rules, wayfaring around the estate etc. The info there is is very old (likely put together in covid times). Could the pool booking rules be more flexible perhaps? (30mim slots only and up to 5 people). We had a great time thank you

Property was in a beutifull location , and well presented , ideal for large families or parties , pool and gardens were a good size , we noticed other cottages of various sizes which we woulds certainly consider booking in the future .

Our stay at The Park was great, everything was perfect from the accommodation to the surrounding countryside, especially the kitchen which was so well stocked with pots and pans etc we really enjoyed our time and was the perfect place to bring together the family to celebrate our parents 90th birthdays - thank you

We enjoyed a fabulous week at The Park .

The setting was beautiful and the sighting of red kites were fascinating . The accommodation was ample for our group of ages 14 months to 65 years old. We were blessed with a week of sunshine . If there are any improvements I could suggest it would be about the outdoor furniture. The benches were very uncomfortable without the provision of outdoor cushions . Also they were difficult to move around the garden .

The accommodation was mainly excellent but there are some things that could make it extremely exceptional.

Some more cleaning items ie dish cloths and washing up liquid as standard would be good. I know there were dishwasher tablets, which is good, but also need dishcloths. The bedrooms were good but would be better with king size beds as this is what most people have now. Also, more plug sockets in the bedrooms. Most people charge their phones overnight by the bed but in room 3, there wasn’t a socket on one side, just an extension lead socket from the other side of the bed, which meant there wasn’t a bedside socket for the phones. A small dressing table with a mirror and a socket would be lovely so ladies can do their hair and make up. Some extra hangers in the wardrobe would also be good. In my wardrobe there was a mixture of child and adult hangers. However, none of the above detracted from our enjoyment of the holiday. We all had a lovely time but with the suggestions, it could be excellent.

As a large family, this is our 2nd time staying in The Park and we would definitely make another return trip.

There have been many lovely improvements made since our first visit and the accommodation suits our needs perfectly. Highly recommend.

Property very clean and comfortable.

Description very good. Situation lovely and very peaceful. Local pub highly recommended. Perhaps a note to drivers re the access lane? ( ie having high suspension or a 4x4 to cope with potholes and being a confident/competent reverser!) Two dishwashers not necessary but the addition of a washing machine would have been nice.

Excellent property for multigenerational family of 9.

As described in brochure. Friendly on site manager. Plenty locally to see and do. Spectacular views from the cottage.

The cottage was amazing and matched everything we wanted.

The kitchen was so well stocked with every utensil you could ever need. The heating worked really well, The Park has big communal areas, but we were never cold. The beds were so comfortable, and the en-suites spacious and modern. The scenery was breathtaking, and the ground were beautiful! Sharon, the owner, popped in to see the first incoming guests, which was lovely. My only grumble would be there was no information on how to reach Sharon in an emergency, or if we had a question. As for Sykes Cottages, I was really not impressed by their communication. Once you managed to get hold of them they were as helpful as they could be, but trying to get to actually interact with an agent was really hard. Everything is through WhatsApp, and it takes hours for them to reply. You cannot directly speak to anyone, the links they send do not work. The information on the App is incomplete. The Park - - 5 / 5 Sykes - - 2 / 5

Great property, great location and the Red Kites were an added bonus.

I could have stayed much longer but unfortunately had to return early for a funeral.

We had a wonderful family Christmas at the Park which was perfect for eleven of us to spend quality time with our daughters and their families including five very energetic young boys between 4 and 11.

We were greeted with a welcome box of Christmas biscuits and chocolates which didn't last long and was a very pleasant surprise. We loved the space available for the children to run around in the play barn and, even better, were the daily swims in the heated pool. The accommodation was perfect for us with en suite bathrooms in each comfortable bedroom and the addition of a decorated Christmas tree in the living room was a nice touch which put us all in the mood for the festivities. This was topped off by the arrival of a bottle of claret and a turkey baking dish from our hosts on Christmas eve, which are just the kind of touches to make us feel most welcome. Our stay was all too short but very memorable and one which was ideal for our purposes, for which we all thank our hosts for making it so enjoyable.

Lovely place, everything you could ask for was there.

Very comfortable and quiet

A very enjoyable short stay.

Lovely location and friendly host.

We (A group of 8 women) stayed here for the weekend between 19th- 21st July.

The house was perfect for us. Very spacious and clean. Everything we needed. The pool (Shared facility) was pleasant and a welcomed bonus! There is a Sainsburys a couple of miles away, where we stocked up on food and drink which meant we didn't need to leave the house. Would highly recommend and I'll definitely be returning.

We all had a brilliant weekend.

Beautiful house

We had a lovely holiday at the Park, the property was certainly big enough for our needs and well maintained.

Good size bedrooms and lovely en-suite bathroom & shower facilities and nice towels. Mattress did not fit the bed correctly but bedding was very clean. Kitchen/diner was very good with plenty of storage and appliances. Lounge was a bit tired with uncomfortable long settees. TV could be better. Outside seating area was very nice and grounds kept tidy. Barbecue was grubby but useable after we gave it a good clean. Plenty of parking space.

Our stay at the Park was lovely.

The accommodation fitted our family of 11 well and on booking never realised there was an indoor pool so that was an added bonus, which was enjoyed by all. The only thing I would suggest is that the quilts could do with being replaced as they were rather stained. I would like to make a return visit in the near future.

The property was stunning as well as all the facilities, it had everything we needed for our short stay.

As a family (12 of us) we recently stayed at the Park over the Easter weekend and had an absolutely brilliant time.

The house was everything we could have wished for and there was plenty of room for us all to move around and be comfortable. Age range was from 69 down to 2 years of age but everyone found it really comfortable. There were no shortages of anything. Sharon who met with us on arrival was lovely and answered any questions that we had. She left her contact details and said that we could contact her with any issues. We took way too much food with us ! and agreed that if we returned we would use the local Tuffins Supermarket which literally sells everything ! A wonderful time enjoyed by all of us. Thank you

We booked to celebrate a 70th birthday within the family.

Party of 12, beautiful modern bathrooms, the bedrooms are just what you need, clean and fresh. Fully equipped kitchen for the numbers, tall fridge and under counter freezer. (Adding this as this has been a factor when we stayed elsewhere with the same numbers). The owner came and introduced herself, stating if we needed anything we can knock on her, then a lady who manages the site also showed us around, both were lovely, nothing was too big to ask. We had a leak in one of the bedrooms, and that was dealt with immediately. Then the area had an issue with a armoured cable being cut through and the power would need to go off to fix. 20 minutes before the estate manager knocked with a tray full of candles and matches for us, was really apologetic. The pool was lovely and a factor into us booking it, the tennis court was great. In the barn there’s a child’s play area and a table tennis. Beautiful surrounding, apple tree pub 1 mile down the road. If you are looking for a nice meal out there’s the Clive Arms, food was beautiful. There’s a food court behind it, which was great for a cooked breakfast and a lovely farm shop. We booked a cab with Alan, he couldn’t have been more helpful if he tried! Absolute superstar. We would absolutely return, everyone was so helpful, it really made our stay perfect.

Excellent accommodation.

Each bedroom had good clean ensuite facilities. Kitchen had excellent electric cooker and 2 dishwashers which are necessary when cooking for up to 12 people. The swimming pool was initially closed for maintenance and we had to ask for the cover to be removed when we wanted to use it.

Enjoyable holiday, excellent accommodation, only downside - having teenagers- was the indoor play equipment - ie.

table tennis table, pool table, gym equipment - was out of action. If hadn't been for swimming pool and outdoor tennis court, and being only residents there, meant that teenagers could use these facilities when they wanted. Otherwise recommend wholeheartedly. Local pub also good facility

We had a lovely few days in The Park with family to celebrate some big family milestones.

It was good for everyone to have their own space and there were no fights for the bathroom in the mornings! Plus everyone in our party commented on how comfy the beds are. The local pub was nice and we all enjoyed the walk there and back. We also enjoyed a lovely meal at the Clive Arms which is a short drive from the house. All in all a lovely stay and we would definitely recommend.

Firstly I would like to say that our group of 10 friends enjoyed our holiday here.

The property was clean and the gardens were well maintained.A lovely view over the Shropshire countryside. Any problems were dealt with as soon as the owners were made aware of them. Suggestions for improving our stay:- Update the information folder and put the instructions for appliances in one place. The covered games area equipment needs attention as some things were unusable eg the table tennis table was not on level ground.

Ten of us enjoyed a wonderful week at The Park, helped by some lovely autumn weather.

Superb value for money, great facilities and in a very useful location to walk and enjoy the scenery and nature of the area. Also found some good pubs to dine in the evenings - special mention to The Lion in Leintwardine and The Plough in Wistanstow, both excellent. Thanks to the owners of Onibury Cottages for a memorable stay.

Had an amazing time as a group of 12 friends.

The beds are comfy and all the rooms were extremely clean with lovely showers, everything you need in the kitchen, only negative we would mention is the oven, it took an extremely long time to heat up and cook anything so be mindful. The views are amazing and we hope to return in summer so we can use the other facilities. People staying in the other cottages had private helicopters so we all enjoyed watching them.

We have just returned from a week at The Park.

The property suited our needs well (6 couples). The bedrooms were comfortable with great en-suites. Not a huge amount of shelf space but overall adequate. The lounge was big enough for 12 sitting on two settees and two chairs. The kitchen was essentially well equipped with an abundance of good glassware, dishes and pots and pans. 2 dishwashers were a bonus and were well used. Lovely big table and comfortable dining chairs. Big fridge and separate freezer - both great. The oven however left a lot to be desired, took ages to cook anything and if you left food in a dish near the bottom of the over the bottom ended up burnt! The hob was no problem. We used the swimming pool once and were not enticed back. Not a welcoming building and the so pool needed some TLC!! The photos of The Park needed a description with them as there were pictures of the ‘hospitality’ suite and we all thought when originally viewing the property on line that those pictures were part of the property we rented. We had a few issues that needed addressing whilst we were there and these were dealt with efficiently by the Manager Sharon. We loved the location and certainly would recommend The Park for a group of 6 couples. We enjoyed our week there very much.
