The property was like new in a fantastic location, the owner was very helpful, our trips in the area were very enjoyable. We will visit again Thank You. 5 STARS My only rub is with SYKES. They booked us with wrong dates, were never available to correct their mistake, Ii wrote two polite letters to their Chief executive who never replied. Their cancellation policy stinks. But for the co operation of my bank who withheld some of the Barclaycard payment we would have been more than £500 out of pocket. Sykes behaviour was appalling. NEVER AGAIN will i use them. BEWARE ASHLEY WOODS

Extremely well fitted out with high quality appliances. Private outside area for sitting on lawn and flower bed area. Beautiful floral array surrounding entrance to Lakeside. Beach a short walk with the Lake opposite Swans Nest. An ideal setting. Thoroughly enjoyed our stay.
