    What our customers say about their holidays

    • Lorraine - Verified booking

      The cottage was fabulous.

      The owner, Elaine , was very friendly and accommodating and left bread, cheese, and milk for us which was lovely as we didn't arrive until after 8.30pm. I cannot fault this cottage, it is Sykes that I have a problem with. We booked 3 holidays in one go from you this year totaling around one thousand five hundred pounds. Each time we got back from our holidays I was emailed to say 'book another holiday and we will give you forty pounds off'. I asked if it could be applied to our booked holidays and got told no, as we had paid the deposits it was not a new holiday. Come on Sykes...... you could not apply the two amounts of forty pounds off each holiday?? This is why I am saying that you failed to meet expectations....you offer anyone money off their next holiday but cannot/will not give it to someone who has booked 3 times with you this year. All the cottages we stayed at were fabulous, the owners were all very friendly and I would highly recommend them.....but Sykes as a company - NO!!

      We arrived by Trikes, to explore the area, as such luggage space was limited.

      To arrive and find a bottle of milk in the fridge and tea/coffee making basics already there was an absolute boon, as there was no urgency to unpack and run back out for supplies; the welcome muffins were a lovely extra. One of the reasons we selected the property was the off-road parking for our two precious vehicles; something we could not find in town. However the walk to the nearest pub, and into town was easy, although an uphill return. The cottage is absolutely delightful, and has everything a couple could need. It’s a very peaceful and beautiful location, and we both slept very well indeed. One thing of note was how lovely the bedding and towels felt and smelled, to the extent I texted the key holder to ask what they used. My husband also made note of the towel brand, and I am sure will be tracking some down in the near future. All in all, a wonderful place to stay, and one we will return to in future to explore this glorious location further.

      What a fantastic stay we had at Pepper Cottage.

      So grateful that we were given such a lovely cosy holiday home that would allow our 4 dogs. Abby was only a text away providing any advice / recommendations needed throughout our stay. The cottage was soooo well equipped and was lovely and clean. The only issue we had was a lot of places nearby were either closed or weren’t serving food as it was out of season, so if you were to go at this time of year I would suggest properly researching places to visit / eat before hand. Very ideal dog walking field situated at the end of the street, and long walks mapped out through the “AllTrails” app that literally begin when you step out of the gate. We would definitely stay here again and are glad to know we have a holiday in mind for our pooches in the future :)

    • Abby - Verified booking

      Overall, a really great stay.

      Would highly recommend. There was everything we needed and more. The welcome basket was a great touch and some goodies for the dog wasn't expected, they thought of everything. The house was bright and airey and generally comfortable, although we didn't sleep too well on the really soft beds with giant pillows, we know this is our taste and personal preference so doesn't impact my score or view at all, but I'd suggest if you prefer flatter pillows to take your own. An L-shaped sofa would work really well and just give that extra comfort and intimacy for small families. But out 2 year old daughter and 9 year old dog enjoyed themselves thoroughly. Will tell friends! Thank you.

    • Marcus - Verified booking

      We found Drover's Cottage to be an exceptionally well presented and well equipped property.

      It was light and airy, and at no point, even during sustained very wet weather and with two dogs, did it ever feel cramped. Elaine and Thomas clearly put a lot of effort in to maintaining the cottage to a very high standard. The location is stunning, with great views across the valley, very quiet, and with direct access on to an amazing network of footpaths leading up on to Wolsingham North Moor and also down along the streams in to Wolsingham. Be sure to visit Hamsterley Forest and to walk from the door using the leaflets supplied in the cottage or downloadable from the Wolsingham Wayfairers website.
