What guests are saying
From the very beginning, the owner was super helpful and incredibly easy to contact, always replied to our queries.
When we arrived, we had a welcome treat, some lovely chocolates left out for us, which was such a thoughtful gesture. The highlight of our stay was how much the owner went above and beyond to help us with our transportation. We were there for a wedding, and he connected us with a friend who had a minibus to take us to and from the airports and venues. The driver was also really friendly and amazing - he gave us a mini-tour, made sure we knew our way around, and shared a lot of the local history and stories about the area with us. It turned a simple ride into a wonderful experience! The cottage itself is beautiful, welcoming, and it was amazing that every single room has its own en-suite bathroom, which gave everyone in our group plenty of privacy and convenience. We cannot recommend Gatehouse enough. Fantastic host, and a wonderful property!
We stayed 1 night for a wedding.
The house is lovely, ensuites in every room comfy beds, black out blinds, Immaculate throughout . Everything you could need was provided The hosts left us chocolates which was so thoughtful and appreciated. We will definitely be back for a longer stay
My family and I recently stayed at The Gatehouse.
It was brilliant and the location was great, just being a short walk into the main town with a good choice of bars, cafes and restaurants and easy access to the main bus connections. The host was extremely pleasant to deal with when we needed to contact him. I would definitely recommend this accommodation . Unfortunately Sykes Cottages were very poor to communicate with, so it was a pleasure to chat with the host when his mobile number was forwarded to us for him to answer our questions and queries. Thank you for our wonderful stay and hopefully we will return sometime soon. Karen
