    “This is a first-rate rental property in every way.”

    The house is beautiful and kept spotlessly clean. All the amenities you could wish for are available and this is backed up by a very friendly and helpful property manager, Otto, for whom nothing is too much trouble. Small things also make a big difference, such as comfortable beds and pillows. Most likely the best UK rental property we have had with Sykes so far. Thanks to Otto and the owners for a very comfortable and enjoyable stay.
