“Very comfortable house.”

Very modern so we aged persons 78 and 82 years had a few problems with tv and hob! A very nice village with brilliant bakery and butcher's.

We are very pleased to hear you enjoyed your stay at Martindale Cottage and Sleights; we’ve worked hard to provide somewhere comfortable and cosy for people to stay. It was good to meet you on your first evening when we helped you into the property and went through how the smart TV worked. Property Owner

“The cottage is very high spec and in a good position.”

The layout is great and we had a lovely family holiday. Unfortunately the shower in our room didn’t work which would have been a bigger issue if we hadn’t been there with other family members. Some communication around this would have been helpful as it was known and some goodies left to compensate. Generally well equipped and nice touches eg toys for children. High tech facilities so instructions would be helpful. A teapot and cafetiere would have been helpful for us older people. Would have given 5* if shower worked. Overall a positive experience and would recommend this property for a holiday base.

- Shelley, June 2024

Thank-you so much for your feedback, we're so pleased you enjoyed your stay. Now we have been alerted to the issue with one of the showers a plumber is resolving the issue. A teapot & cafetiere is now available for guests and we will provide some more information guides for guests. Property Owner

“We had a wonderful stay at Martindale Cottage & wouldn't hesitate to return in the future.”

Overall lovely accommodation, the only critique we had was the cleanliness when we noted a £350 service charge for cleaning. When we arrived there were lots of long hairs and dust around the white marble flooring in the unsuite, lot's of crumbs left in the bottom on the oven and the rug in the lounge was slippery under our feet so moved for comfort but found alot of sand and dust underneath. We shook the rug outside and tidied up with the dustpan and brush so it wasn't an issue, but we assumed perhaps it had been quickly over turned as we felt things had been missed. It was lovely to have a welcome pack. A well throughout outbtreats for humans and pet owners. My only feedback was the lack of sugar, salt etc in the kitchen which all other places usually provide. On a whole, the house and outdoor space was lovely, and the tree blowing outside the bedroom window in the sunlight with the view of fields was a wellbeing treat. Thanks for a lovely stay ♡

Dear Miss Howell, I am sorry that everything wasn't to our normal high standard. I will feed this back to ensure we provide the best possible stay for everyone. We would love to welcome you to come back again for another relaxing stay. Property Owner

Ideal to use as a base to get out and explore. The property is modern, clean and has everything that you could need. If you have a dog then this property has a nice enclosed garden too. We really enjoyed it and will be back.
