Cottage Review:  

We booked this property through Sykes Holiday Cottages expecting it to be as described "a luxury cottage furnished and decorated to a very high standard". This is not what we found upon arrival. Although it may have been as described several years ago, this property is now extremely tired and in need of complete renovation. It was unclean, damaged, and the furniture extremely tired.

The first hour of our stay was spent documenting the extensive list of damage found, including damaged beds that simply could not be slept in. We also cleaned all the kitchen utensils as it had a grubby feel and we were not comfortable preparing or eating food until we had done so.

We thought that things would improve if we remained patient with the owner and allowed her to deal with the issues. In fairness, the owner did send someone to replace one of the beds (propped up by a concrete block), replace the kitchen sink tap and carry out some additional cleaning. Had this not happened, we would not have remained there.

The photos you will see advertising this property do not reflect the current state of it (as of September 2018) so it would be worth checking to so if the property has been refurbished since September 2018 as it could be a lovely place once again with some investment.

Ending on a positive note, the property is sited as close as you could possibly get to the main entrance of Alton Towers - less than a five minute walk.

Just to let you all , know that the pictures is not the same as the place. These pictures have been taken in 2011, so don't be fooled. Nice area, Just that the place needs updating. One last thing found breeze blocks underneath the bed to hold it up,As fours of beds were broken. Paid £1,000 four nights, what a waste of money.

Cottage Review:  

This place is so close to Alton towers. A five min walk and your at the ticket booths.

The cottage was ok. Parking was great. Outside it looks lovely and there?s outdoor places to sit.

Indoors was ok. We had a 1 year old and a 3 year old and it was not child friendly. The floors, fireplace, stairs and open plan made it stressful to keep an eye on a 1 year old.

The beds were comfy and bathrooms were lovely. Great showers.

I would stay there again if I was going Alton towers with friends or older kids. Location is worth it alone.

We were looking for a last minute break before school starts again, and found this cottage available to rent. The pictures looked perfect. A nice modern cottage within walking distance of Alton Towers, and within driving distance of the Peak District.

The owners were friendly and very helpful once we had booked and we found the cottage without too much trouble. It certainly looks impressive when you pull up the private drive. The cottage is one of three with private gardens and a shared courtyard.

However, we were a little disappointed to note that int

Lovely stay in a great location just outside of Alton Towers gates. We used for a group stay of friends and wasn't using Alton Towers as out of season. Was good value for a girly night and fab accommodation :-)

Great location for alton Towers. Just across the road and round the corner - but quiet. Checked in by very friendly local. Set in courtyard with 2 other cottages - but own private yard/BBQ/seating.
