    • Mark - Verified booking

      I stayed in Oak Barn from the 15th - 29th July due to the sale of my property completing early and needing somewhere to stay for me and my dog.

      On arrival I was really impressed with the location and how immaculate the farm is. I was greeted by Elaine at the farm house who then showed me round the barn, which I must was spotless. The welcome pack in the property was very useful to help me find the local pubs/shops and dog walks, however Elaine was kind enough to let me use the fields, as my Beagle loves his walks. The barn is set over-looking the fields and is peaceful in the day, apart from the usual noises you would expect from a working farm, however these were by no means intrusive. Its amazing watching Elaine's husband working the animals and maintaining the properties. At night the lack of light pollution means on a clear night the stars are amazing and great to sit and look at with a cold beer, its such a lovely place to stay. I must add that on the hottest day ever recorded in the UK there was an issue with a burst water main in the village, obviously this was a one off and not Elaine's problem, however within an hour of me noticing the issue Elaine returned with huge 5ltr bottles of water to make sure me and the dog were ok. This I thought was really considerate considering the family had enough issues trying to keep the animals hydrated. I must say Elaine and her family made me feel very welcome during my 2wk stay, always polite, asking how we were, and with smiles on their faces. The farm is great, the room was perfect for my needs and the local pubs and woodland we wonderful places to visit. I would like to thank Elaine, and her family for their hospitality

      The cottage was very cold at times even with heating on There were only a few logs for fire and no information on where more was stored…empty firefighter packet.

      .so didn’t bother lighting fire…bought extra warm blankets from Corby supermarket..also lighter is not in kitchen..it is in basket with logs Fair amount of empty or almost empty containers under sink plus basket with various items was quite dirty..only hand brush..no dustpan to sweep debris into Large dirty stain on carpet..I rang Sykes immediately to report this I did not know it was shared access so my dog often barking as neighbours often passing by and she is a very protective dog. I would not have booked had I known..I prefer privacy. Would prefer dishwasher tablets as opposed to biscuits..I used dishwasher often so had to travel to supermarket to top up. Also I left Christmas earrings on side table in twin room and they disappeared…I could not find them even though I stripped and lifted beds…This made me feel very uneasy and I felt someone had been into the cottage while I was out.. Needless to say I left on the morning of 31st December…

      The Apple Barn is a little gem.

      It is beautifully and thoughtfully presented with plenty of attention to detail. Even the knives for food preparation were sharp (a first for me in holiday cottages). The bed and bed linen are great. Also there were white towels and grey towels so you always knew you were using your own towel. We would have liked more instructions in the booklet about how to dispose of food waste, dry mixed recycling and general rubbish. We were working from home and there is not a lot of space for two work stations but it is a holiday cottage not a live/work space. The wifi connection was excellent. We would happily come again but if we did we would try to book one of the other two units as they have a better view and access to the garden. Neither were available for our dates which were a last minute booking after another owner had let us down by cancelling our stay. We feel very lucky to have been here in the peace and quiet.

    • John - Verified booking

      Neil had maintained and decorated the cottage to make it a real home from home.

      The bed was very comfy. The kitchen was fully equipped for preparing meals. The setting of the cottage is second to none. It was like being transported to a gentler era. We were fortunate to have good weather to be able to sit on the patio and watch the boats and the people pass by. Most people, be they local or visitors, stopped to chat (and to comment on such an idyllic spot). We learned lots about the canal and its workings by talking with the many volunteers who helped with the lock gates. The walks along the canal are easy and pleasurable. The parking is excellent but the winding stairs might be a problem for anyone with mobility issues. We chose it simply as a good centre to visit Althorp, Northampton, Stowe and Bletchley Park - but it was so much more! There was nothing not to like (except, perhaps Neil, that annoying glass lampshade in the lounge!) That aside, thank you for a fabulous stay!

    • Katie - Verified booking

      We had a fabulous week in Norwell.

      The cottage is exceptional and perfect for 2. The kitchen was equipped with almost everything you needed for a week's holiday (though serious cooks should perhaps take a couple more sharp knives). We mostly ate in and enjoyed using the large range cooker. The sofa is large and the garden is a little sun-trap. Yes, the shower room is small but it's of very high quality finish and my partner who is 6ft 5" didn't have an issue. We used the cottage as a base to explore Newark (lovely little town), Southwell and Sherwood Forest. Would very highly recommend a visit to the National Holocaust Centre about 15 mins away. Some absolutely gorgeous pubs in surrounding villages and we ate one night at the local which was hearty fare! For a really outstanding Italian meal go to The Carpenter's Arms at Walesby. We loved this cottage and whole area and we'll definitely be back!
