Reviews
"This is a light and airy apartment/ cottage in a lovely location. It is exceptionally well equipped for self catering. It has beautiful views over Long Mind from its floor to ceiling lounge window.there is a wood burner with logs for cooler days. The bedrooms are large and both have a bathroom which is a bonus. The double bed bedroom has its own balcony with table and chairs. The apartment was clean and very welcoming. There is the added bonus of a garden , summerhouse, garden furniture, barbecue and a super hot tub. Ideal for relaxing after a day out strolling around lovely Bishops Castle or enjoying one of the super walks directly from the property. The tennis court, with equipment is also very enjoyable for a game. The apartment is a short walk from the main area of Bishops Castle where cafes, shops and excellent pubs/restaurants can be found. The owner is welcoming, friendly and very knowledgeable about the area. All in all a marvellous place to stay and we hope to return."
"Stayed many times, last 2 visits November 2017 and January 2018, never disappoints. Hot tub great after 13 mile walk in the snow on long mynd. It's a bit weird running across garden in the snow wearing just a swimming costume. Great location, only few minutes walk from any of the pubs, and there are a Few in Bishops Castle - never usually get further than Three Tons and Castle Hotel but this time also got to 6 Bells and Boars Head, and both very nice. Would recommend and are going again March 2018."
"The location of the cottage is ideal for walking or cycling, with no need to use the car if you prefer not too. The town of Bishop Castle has everything you need with plenty of pubs to visit. We ate at the Boars head pub, the food was excellent as were the owners, very welcoming. The cottage is very well equipped with everything you need, the log burner and hot tub were great at the end of the day after a long bike ride. Would definitely recommend this cottage."
"Don't bother going here place is filthy couldn't even go in hot tub the canopy was covered in green algae and if I could have found a mower I would of cut the lawn.Never book with Sykes again complained to them and haven't even had the courtesy to reply.i"
"Stayed many times and always great. Location of apartment perfect for Bishops Castle, especially Three Tuns PH and Castle Hotel. Apartment always clean and furnished beautifully, log burning fire fab after walk on long mynd and once you have been in hot tub."
"A lovely cottage on the edge of the market town of Bishops Castle. It has everything you need and a little extra. The hot tub is a real delight and fantastic for that early morning coffee or relaxing after a day exploring the area (I can recommend Lake Vyrnwy, beautiful). The cottage was roomier than expected with a large lounge and two good sized bedrooms. The wood burner was lovely and there was plenty of fuel provided. Bishops Castle is a nice little town and I would definitely stay here again."
"Location and accommodation fab, hot tub and wood burner great. Would definitely stay here again. Love Bishops Castle."
"We have just had 4 lovely days here its so relaxing, enjoyed a game of tennis relaxed in the hot tub, our 2nd visit to this lovely apartment which is very spacious and nice to have your own TV's in the bedroom, lovely surrounding areas to vist."
"Stayed for one week this August and loved every minute! Furnishings of the highest standard and immaculate! Little touches like good bedding and towels made the difference. The hot tub made the place extra special"
"We would strongly recomend this place to stay. Very clean and cosy. The town is a bit quiet, was difficult to find a place to eat on Sunday, so you better plan in advance :)"
"We have stay here twice within four weeks, the accommodation is of the highest standard, there is everything you think of to make your stay perfect. The standard of furnishings in the apartment are high quality, which gives you a sense of luxury which makes your breakaway even more special as you feel like you are renting a luxury apartment. The kitchen is again high quality with everything you could need to create a filling meal after a day exploring the beautiful surroundings, the added bonus of a slow cooker is fantastic and the dishwasher also makes it more of a rest not having to do the the dishes after a meal. The log burner with the endless supply of logs made for cosy evening, as well as the hot tub which was a fantastic way to start and end the day with complete relaxation. The owner of the apartment was so helpful and welcoming, and really cared that you were comfortable and enjoyed your stay. All in all we had two fantastic holidays and would recommend it to anyone visiting Shropshire as nowhere could match the standard of holiday accommodation on offer."
"Spacious and comfortable. Garden with summer house and hot tub. WiFi recently added. Very convenient for the interesting town (hilly). Within easy reach of a lot of good hill walking and cycling. Warm reception from helpful friendly owner."
"A very well appointed let with a super hot tub in the garden which allowed views of the Shropshire countryside. The bedrooms were luxuriously set up with TVs and i-pod docks. The kitchen was satisfactory (a few more utensils would have been useful). The location in relation to the town was ideal with a five minute walk into the centre. A wide range of hostelries and cafes was present. The garden was a relaxing place to while away the evening although the road noise was a little intrusive."
"Have just had a lovely weeks holiday here, so relaxing, hot tub was fantastic used every day, another bonus was the tennis courts, the owner was really friendly came to check that every thing was ok, beds were so comfortable and liked it that both bedrooms had their own shower and toilet, will certainly go back, only one niggle there is a busy road next to it, but didn't bother us. fantastic town and real ale pubs."
"Lovely place, great owner who really cares that you enjoy the holiday. Hot tub was great fun and made for an exciting end to most days for the kids."
