“Greeted by the male owner, he was pleasant, i had to ask for his name.”
His wife did not come near us, just waved from their house, she did,nt interact with us in the slightest and they both dissapeared after 2 days of us being there. We were left to get on with things and we thought their animals were very hungry including a 3 wk old lamb with no mother.
I texted the owner to see if i could feed the animals as it turned out to be stressful worrying about them. We left on the friday, nobody around only their 2 dogs barking madly at us from a cage.
if you,re an animal lover, it tugs at your heartstrings.
The people in the barn underneath woke us up every morning around 4ish, so you can hear all the noise from below.
lots of young lads one evening shouting and roaring with laughter from 5pm til 9-15 pm, i had to text the owner to ask how long did we have to listen to it after being out for 8 hrs, we were tired, one of them was her son, mates brought back while owners away i suppose. no respect for people paying lots of money for a holiday. more stress.
If you want peace and privacy, there wasnt any for us, also take essentials as they leave you no milk, no kitchen roll, not a t bag in sight, good job we brought our own, first place we have been without milk or welcome pack.
Also a hungry cat always looking for food.
Just feel its sad they cant interact with guests.
1st night we had no wifi, i had to tell the male owner, he sorted it next day.
feel i need to complain as for what we went through, it was,nt a relaxing holiday. the barn is right facing the owner,s house, if we would have known, we would not have booked it.
Sykes need to sympathise and put more info on this property.
We will complain to them.
You contacted me prior to arrival to ask what you need to bring and seemed content with the information
Check in time is clearly stated as 3pm you arrived early
The property is self catering not B&B
We live near the property so are entitled to use our garden, it was explained to you that they were playing cards having not seen each other for a while
At no point did you ask the lads to keep it down , had you done so they would have
Despite it being explained to you by myself and our animal sitter that the animals are all well and fed but are opportunists looking for treats you state they were distressed. As trustee of an animal welfare charity and the fact that the cat is one we rescued I find your comments inaccurate.
We didn’t “disappear” we went on a well deserved holiday after my cancer treatment. We are not obligated to be on site 24/7
I’m at a loss as to why you need to be informed of this
