Honeysuckle Cottage, Crossgates

Fantastic location. Cosy cottage and quiet. Will be booking again. Highly recommend to anyone with dogs who need a quiet safe place to stay.

Love this little cottage

Loved the welcome pack. Everything well equipped and clean. Living room was very dark but, luckily, we had great weather so could use the sunny decking area at the back.

Lovely little cottages so pleased to visit again

What a lovely cosy cottage to stay in over our bank holiday weekend. Couldn't fault the kitchen facilities everything was there to use. There was a lovely welcom for us and the dogs, very welcoming so nice. The beds was so comfortable clean beautiful bedding and the bathroom especially the new one was all lovely to use. If I had to make one tiny point it was the dust around the skirting boards on the floor mainly in bedrooms and lounge. But really this wouldn't stop us recommending or coming back we would love to stay there again. When we got there the WiFi just needed to be turned off to reconnect. we had a phone call of the owner straight away, and he sorted the problem in seconds. Thank you so much for a fantastic stay

The holiday park was very pleasant, short drive to local shop, the fly's were a problem despite having to keep the doors and windows shut, fly's still managed to get inside. Lots of dust and dead fly's behind the bed. The toaster didn't work properly unless you held it down. Would like to see a few cleaning utensils and a mop and bucket.

Great little cottage for first trip away with my spaniels. We had amazing weather but had it rained, I would have liked a mop to keep floor & decking clean , everything else you could need was provided. My dogs loved their complimentary ball & treats. Super comfortable beds. Will stay again when next golfing in Llandrindod Wells

I was very impressed from the start, this little cottage is beautiful and very cosy. It does accommodate 4 people but I think it's more suited for 2, 3 max. One thing I missed was a washing machine since we stayed for a week and with a child and a dog we were constantly muddy. And even washing by hand I struggled to find a place to hang our clothes. That is in my opinion the only downfall. It could've also been cleaner.. but that wasn't an issue since I always clean beforehand anyway. Overall we were very happy with the cottage and with the little things that show the owners care, for instance there were loads of entertainment books, games etc and a handwritten note of places to visit around the area. The extra bathroom was thoughtful but we didn't use it, the space could've been used as a laundry room. My dog loved the patio, he's a funny one because he doesn't like being wet and it was raining throughout our stay so being able to go quickly for a potty was brilliant. I am very happy with sykecottages services and will for sure book more holidays. Thank you very much

LOUNGE NEEDS MORE SEATING SPACE WASTED BY HAVING 2 SHOWERS

Great location? Lots of dog walks. Very nice! All the people were nice that we met and we loved having breakfast and our tea in the courtyard

We enjoyed our stay at Honeysuckle Cottage we enjoyed the Patio and the cottage was very clean the only downside was the front room which was small and very dark but realise that the privacy hedge contributes to that. the area we explored was brilliant and we spent a lot of time watching the Red kites, it would help if the Television in the front room worked better as it kept freezing but we did not worry but your next tenants might be thankyou for the stay and we cannot wait to come back again

Beautiful cottage with everything you need for a peaceful getaway. The dog was able to come in and out as he pleased as the back decking area was secure and safe. We found the only downfalls which was our own fault for not doing enough research was, no walk routes for the dog unless you walked on the road which was quit dangerous and no local amenities without the need to drive but overall a very nice break.

We enjoyed out week at Honeysuckle Cottage. It has everything you need and is a good location to start from when getting out and about. The enclosed decked area is a wonderful sun trap. However, the seating area indoors might be a bit small if you are likely to be spending a lot of time inside. The shower and hot water supply were good . Parking was good . We took two dogs with us and they are used to going to the toilet on grass so we had to take them out for frequent walks . There is a track opposite the main entrance to the site that is public right of way which is ideal. If you get a chance visit the WildOak Cafe in Llanidloes. Lovely and dog friendly

Recently updated semi detached bungalow so clean. Based on a small mobile home site, away from the main road .Kitchen equipment good, bit dark in living room but had nice sunny enclosed no view patio area. Enjoyed stay.

I thoroughly enjoyed my holiday with my two dogs Jack the black Lab and Ben the little Jack Russel. It was so lovely and relaxing to find you had left the heating on low and it was such a treat to walk into a cosy warm cottage it made me feel at home straight away. I had two senior moments on my stay and the owners came straight away even though they do not live near the cottage to try to sort out what was in the end a non existant problem? They were very sweet about it and made me feel comfortable and able to enjoy my holiday as I felt quite silly at the time so thank you again. The welcome box was lovely I loved the quality biscuits and my dogs enjoyed their treats and ball which was useful as Jack loses so many. There were so many places to take my dogs for their run which excited them so much and I found a lovely little cafe in Rhayader who let me take my dogs inside. It was nice to be able to park my car so close so I didn't have to carry my luggage far. Everyone and I mean everyone I met or passed by on my days out were so friendly it was really very pleasant. I didn't really need to take food as there was an Aldi and a Tesco virtually on the doorstep plus a local shop for odds and ends. Book it you won't be disappointed.

Very pleasant stay at a well equipped cottage.

We found the lounge and bedroom very dark and had to have the light on all the time. This was because of overhanging trees and bushes otherwise it was ok.

Stunning little cottage with all the basic essentials needed for a comfortable and relaxing stay. We will be looking to use Syke Cottages again elsewhere in the country. JH

Great week away The caravan park was quiet, cottage was clean with everything you'd expect. The stone Chef you look for on the entrance to the park is alot smaller than you think he's going to be but we still found him. The welcome packs were an added bonus. It might be worth noting that to get to the second bedroom you have to walk through the main bedroom slightly, same for the toiletshower area. This wasn't an issue for us but maybe worth taking note depending who you're staying with. Park is a small smattering of caravans and cottages and has no form of shop onsite, the nearest one we found was a Texaco garage we drove as its down the main road that had a shop inside and a cafe attached to it though we didn't get around to eating here. The town centre is only a 10 minute drive with an aldi and tesco. We found plenty of free parking around town and the big lake became a favourite evening walk, it had a kids play park nexto it with activities available in the day such as outside large chess and mini golf. The caravan park was a decent base to enjoy the various walking routes around Wales we enjoyed the walk with a duck on the signpost the most I don't recall it's name, some kind of nature reserve , you could go as far or as little as possible. If you want a visit to the coast its about an hour away, we went to aberystwyth with an ample coastal town to look around but there isn't any sand only stones and the sea quality was registered as poor. We found Aberdyfi beach a better beach with better sand, smaller town strip but still plenty of places for fish and chips, pub dinner, ice cream ect.. A trip to the Silver Mining experience was a good day out, we took a picnic and booked a tour for our 6 year old and he loved it ! The lady stayed in character throughout even with a group of kids firing questions at her lol then after the tour you're free to stay and have a look around the grounds. Many thanks for an enjoyable holiday

It is a small property only really suitable for a couple or with small child, as access to the second bedroom is through the main bedroom. It was adequate for our needs as we only stayed a week. It is very centrally situated for exploring the area. Overall it was a pleasant stay.

The property was just as described on the website, the directions were clear, everything worked as you would expect, and the cottage had good information about the local walks and facilities. Thank you.

On arrival place dirty and unprepared. Our fault apparently for arriving 30 minutes early. A window of between 10am &4pm for cleaning was part of instructions, clearly not adhered to. We were still there at beyond 4pm. Had to make alternative arrangements for two nights as no contact available. When requested compensation for the two nights told nothing doing. Very disappointed both with the lack of help and refusal of compensation. We are both in our 70s and had travelled for five hours to be there. Totally unable therefore to be able to recommend either the cottage or Sykes services.

Very pleased with the accommodation. Very clean and tidy. Thank you for the welcome pack, much appreciated after a long drive.

Great property, everything provided we could possibly need for a nice mid week break
