We really enjoyed our 3 night stay and would not hesitate to recommend it! Booking online with Sykes Cottages was very easy & the communication & information provided was superb. Thank you!

“Overall we were happy with the property, just one or two minor niggles.”

There were no sheets on two of the beds and there was no wood for the stove despite the details saying it was included with the rental. It was a cold weekend so we bought some. Nice touches were the milk in the fridge and a cake for us. The garden was pretty and the cottage in an excellent location.

“Quality equipped and comfortable.”

Everything we needed for a weekend getaway. Ideal for 4, too cosy for 6 probably!

“Wonderful place to stay.”

Everything was clean and the cottage was warm, even though the weather wasn't! We found the location was excellent, good choice of shops nearby for necessary items and some lovely gift shops too. During the week we managed a day trip by train to Oxford (there's a mainline station with parking at Kingham). Local farm park (Adam Henson's) very good for a day out too. Owner was extremely helpful and we would love to come back. There is a busy road outside, but if you want to be near a town, that's part of being in a convenient location.

“In a great location 5 mins from Village centre .”

Marks and Spencer Foodhall 5 mins in other direction. plus Aldi nearby .Parking area right outside cottage . Owner not very friendly when we ran into problems with Heating and Cooker hob . Simple written instructions would have been so helpful iso we didn’t have to call him .instructions for rubbish would’ve have also been useful . Despite the above problems had a lovely weekend catching up with friends .

“We enjoyed our stay & the cottage was lovely but we did find a lot of the pans etc dirty.”

It could be lack of use. The information also needs updating - the booklet on the oven is out of date. We would have liked to put the central heating on but couldn't understand the instructions!

“Six of us and two dogs enjoyed a good four day stay at Victoria Cottage.”

We met the owner by chance on our arrival. He was very helpful. The house was very comfortable, everywhere very clean and well maintained. We would be happy to recommend this property to anyone.

“I would not rent a pet friendly house again We could smell dogs downstairs and on the soft furnishings and rugs It was very unpleasant.”

- Christine, July 2021

We send our sincere apology's about the smell of the property and wish you had contacted us at the time as we could have looked to rectify this issue for you. Our cleaner's are going to make sure all the soft furnishings's and rug's receive a deep clean to avoid this issue for future guest's. We thank you for your comment's and wish you well in the future.

“Lovely cottage, everything you need.”

Only thing would be to state that the garden has a walkway for other neighbours to get to their gardens so had to remember to shut the gate in case the dog got out. Also water pressure could be a little better as you couldn't run a tap when the shower was on otherwise the showers pressure dropped significantly.

“This is a really lovely cosy cottage with plenty of space and superb facilities.”

It is in an excellent location with easy walking access to lovely shops and pubs. We loved our stay! Thank you

“This cottage is fantastic.”

Beautiful in every way. We didn’t need anything as everything was well provided. Extremely clean, beautifully decorated and a lovely little garden to sit in. Great location to visit everywhere in the area. Easy walking distance to pubs, restaurants and shops (2 mins) We had such a lovely visit and would highly recommend.

“Great location to explore the Cotswolds.”

A short walk to the centre of Chipping Norton for pubs, shops and convenience stores. Ideal for two adults and our dog. Plenty of bedroom and bathroom space, but limited kitchen and ground floor area. A nice outside area.

- Danny, August 2020
Tracey August 2020

“The kitchen needs a door on as every time the oven or hob is switched on it sets the fire alarm off which is extremely distressing The kitchen needs a better range of cooking utensils as there isn't enough pans etc to make a proper meal for 6 adults.”

A number of glasses and crockery were chipped so we had to put them.in the bin I think this is from the lovely Belfast sink Need to have a drying facility there is no indoor or proper outdoor facilities for drying clothes after getting soaked by the British weather

- Tracey, August 2020

Thank you for your feedback. the Crockery, utensils and glasses have been replaced in the property. we do hope you enjoyed your stay at the property and we hope to see you again soon Property Owner
