Oak Apple Cottage

Had a fantastic stay in oak apple cottage views amazing so peaceful, lovely walk down to village and up into the forest, prefect if your into star gazing only gripe could do with some outside lights as pitch black wen letting dogs out for there last wee the little touch just didnt cut it .

But overall a very special place

Perfect setting for a quiet relaxing holiday

A lovely weekend at this fabulous clean, well equipped, comfortable house!

We arrived during the heatwave so our time was spent mostly in the garden, sat on the comfortable chairs admiring the trees, listening to the birds and admiring the glorious view. We only took the dogs out for a walk in the forest early morning when it was cooler and didn't use the lounge atall due to the hot weather but it would be really nice in the cooler months with the log burner. Everything is provided and the welcome basket was amazing! Secure garden for the dogs (even my chihuahuas), plenty of parking, a good vacuum cleaner etc and everything worked! Definitely one of the nicest holiday cottages we've stayed in and we've stayed in lots during the past 20 years! The peace and tranquility was wonderful...no neighbours, no noise..just quietness. A huge thank you to the caring owners who do everything they can to make this cottage so welcoming. We hope to return in the winter months and explore all of the surrounding footpaths!

Immaculate cottage in a fabulous peaceful location.

Stunning views across the valley down to the pretty town of Prestiegne which has a choice of shops and cafes and a lovely little art gallery. The cottage had everything we needed and was very tastefully appointed and a lovely little welcome pack. We had a minor issue with the hot water which was promptly resolved by the owners whilst we were out. This is a real gem of a place, one of the best we stayed with Sykes.

Lovely home from home, clean, well equipped with everything you need.

Its very remote within the forest with a forestry track for access which some people may find difficult and in bad weather could be a tricky drive up. There is a gate access with a key to be collected from another property on arrival so just to be aware of it. Lovely and peaceful only passing people are walkers and forestry workers.

Lovely spot in woods, house well kitted out with everything you might need, garden secure and safe for dogs, lovely hamper on arrival thank you.

A wonderful peaceful idyllic property, a stunning veiw from the big garden, very comfortable with everything there that you need.

And the dogs loved it there to!

We have spent the weekend at Oak Apple Cottage, A Beautiful property in Nash Woods, the house was wonderful, so spacious, it has everything you need, the welcome pack was so generous.

We sat on the balcony taking in the outstanding view. The perfect house to recharge and relax. Great walks in the forest listening to all the different birds and seeing the fox. We hope to return later on in the year for a longer stay. The owners couldn't have been any more accommodating. Thank you so much Michelle and Kirk

Couldn't fault thus gorgeous cottage & the amazing garden, our dogs were in heaven.

Views were great & deffinetly a relaxing break, hopefully we will return.

A return visit, simply exceptional!

House, facilities, situation and view are wonderful. It really is a gem. Thank you.

It was our second stay.

We loved it so much the first time that we had to return. Stunning scenery. Breathtaking. Complete peace and quiet. No neighbours, just birdsong. Perfect. The cottage itself is really clean, comfortable and cosy and warm. The beds were the most comfortable we’ve ever slept in. Lovely hot showers. And we all love the swing bench. Our dogs had a great time and they were safe and secure roaming the MASSIVE garden. There’s a lovely welcome basket and thoughtful greetings card on arrival. Such a lovely touch. Little extras like laundry and dishwasher tablets, plus shower gels and as much wood that you need for the log burner and fire pit. Presteigne is such a lovely, welcoming little village. Once again, we were sad to leave and hope to continue returning.

Had a lovely time away, so quiet and peaceful highly recommended

Beautiful property in tranquil setting exceptional spacious property in Nash woods loads of walks on doorstep surrounding areas so much to see if you want to leave everything behind and relax this is the place the welcome pack was very thoughtful and after our first night we felt so privileged to share this wonderful special place thank you

We went to Oak Apple Cottage to recharge our batteries and came away feeling much more refreshed.

The secluded location was perfect for us and we loved being right in the forest - lots of wildlife around so maybe take some binoculars. The balcony was great for sitting outside, even if it was raining as it was undercover, and taking in the view. We had everything we needed but still enjoyed a walk down to Presteigne for a stroll around. It was nice to return and light the fire though

We had a fabulous family weekend at Oak Apple Cottage.

It was set in the most beautiful woods and there were plenty of walks (and runs) for us all. We also walked into Presteigne which is a pretty village. We had a fantastic carvery at The Corners Inn Kingsland. The cottage was very well equipped with all appliances and the cottage was very comfortable from the sitting room to beds. I would highly recommend Oak Apple Cottage for a true get away from it all with a touch of luxury too. Thank you!

We have just returned from a fantastic Christmas holiday at Oak Apple Cottage and wow did it deliver.

The place is stunning if your looking for complete isolation away from the tussles of everyday life this is it! Countless muddy walks with the kids in the forest, the odd encounter with people who are so friendly. Absolutely amazing we will definitely be returning and cannot recommend enough.

We had a lovely time at Oak Apple Cottage.

The cottage was very cozy and it had everything you needed for a relaxing break. We loved the remote location of this property too. It had beautiful views and listening to all the birdsong in the mornings was lovely and relaxing. The garden was big too and safe for dogs to run around. We didn’t let ours in the garden though because it was wet and didn’t want to keep cleaning them but this garden would be beautiful in the warmer months. The owners left a lovely hamper for us which was gratefully received! We would return to this property

Lovely comfortable cottage in an amazing private location off the forest path.

Spectacular views, lovely dog proof garden. Perfect for walks through the forest or into Presteigne for the pubs, restaurants and shops, watching a wide variety of birds in the valley and stargazing at night. For us the only thing that could be improved is perhaps a bigger TV and maybe some sort of hifi in the lounge. Would be a nice addition for the evenings, as it is a lovely room to relax in. Really not an issue though and already want to go back!

A very impressive 'cottage' more a detached house truly amazing outside and inside!

plenty of parking space if more than one car Extremely well furnished and excellent heating of the whole house. I would not hesitate in recommending this property for a holiday. Lots of useful information on the local area supplied for your reference and a very very good welcome basket in the kitchen area on arrival. In conclusion I can only give it a maximum of eleven out of ten for everything. .

Superb cottage with every amenity you could need.

Beautiful location with a view to die for. Will return some day and enjoy more time in this wonderful cottage.

Such a beautiful house in a beautiful location.

The welcome hamper is so thoughtful and was much appreciated. We had a lovely week at oak apple cottage, perfect place for relaxing!

The cottage is in an ideal location for visiting this lovely area - a short walk from Presteigne surrounded by lovely views and forest.

Plenty of off-road parking, a one acre garden and everything you need for a perfect stay.

Loved our stay at Oak Apple Cottage.

If you like to get away from it all then it's the perfect destination. Such an idyllic and peaceful setting. It was perfect for our 2 Labradors with the enclosed garden but they also had Nash woods for longer walks. The property was equipped with everything you could need. The best rental property we have stayed in yet. Thankyou.

Gorgeous Cottage.

Beautiful scenery and soo tranquil. Hamper was a nice Welcome. Would love to stay again.

The property was exactly as described.

Very comfortable. Very well appointed. And the views were amazing. Dogs loved the huge garden which was totally secure (having 2 hunting dogs that was very important to us). Information about trips out and restaurant suggestions were great. Only downside was it was very remote so a long way from everything. Car absolutely esessential. If you love peace and quiet and no neighbours its perfect.

A really lovely cottage in a perfect location.

The views are great, and it’s even better that there are no other houses nearby. Our dogs loved the huge garden and daily walks in the woods. The cottage has everything you need and more, and is very comfortable. We loved sitting on the balcony, taking in the views. On arrival at the cottage we found a very generous hamper which was gratefully received. The cottage is in a great location to visit some nearby beautiful villages and small towns. We plan to return in the future as we thoroughly enjoyed our holiday.

Beautiful property in a lovely location, best we have stayed in.

would love to return

Wonderful cottage, just as described.

Very comfortable and well equipped with spectacular views. Our dog loved the enclosed garden, as did we! It is well situated - very peaceful but Presteigne with its shops and pubs, is only about a mile away. We would love to return.

The house, garden, facilities and location were perfect for us and the dogs.

We felt at home as soon as we arrived. The welcome goodies were so thoughtful. Even the dogs had their own treats ,towels and a with such a huge safe garden they had a ball. The weather was hot and sunny so apart from a walk to the village and a visit to Ludlow we stayed put and relaxed on the wonderful patio and balcony. Walks from our door into cool woods...perfect. We will be back. Thank you.

The cottage and the large secure gardens for us and our two dogs was every thing that we were expecting.

The kitchen is fully equipped and the essentials hamper awaiting on arrival was a lovely touch from the owners. The views and the sound of birdsong made a great setting we had a relaxing short break and will look to re book in the future. If there was anything I would say to get a few more board games and maybe cards for the ones that want to stay in. Thank you for making our stay an enjoyable one

Stunning location well equipped with everything even for the dogs.

Really enjoyed the weekend and the weather was good as well, would highly recommend to anyone and lovely walks around the area.

Lovely property in fantastic location .

Lots to do within short drive and great forest walks from the property itself . Plan to return .

Good standard of cleanliness and well equipped kitchen and utility room with plenty of crockery cutlery and utensils.

Lovely position and great open space with good fencing all around which made it ideal for dog Unfortunate that water quality was uncertain and need to boil water or use bottled water was a nuisance Water pump and oil heating was quite noisy and was a little intrusive overnight particularly if anyone ran a tap or flushed toilet but we got used to it Overall probably the best holiday cottage we have stayed in and made for a very enjoyable and restful stay

Beautiful cottage in an absolutely stunning setting.

Lovely woodland walks surrounded by nature, lovely little town with cafés and individual shops. We visited Hay on Wye and Ludlow and also paid a visit to the small breeds farm park mainly to see the owls. Hergest Gardens are also worth visiting.We had everything we needed in the cottage, beds were comfortable so slept well. If you're looking for a get away from it all peaceful break then you won't find better than this.

Lovely cottage in an idyllic setting.

Perfectly peaceful aside from the sounds of nature, with walks in the woods from direct from the property. Secure garden for four legged companions, well equipped kitchen, cottage was clean and tidy, we had a perfect tranquil stay.

A beautiful, spacious, well equipped house.

In a spectacular setting. The swing seat, and balcony were an added bonus. The garden is glorious and woodland walks a plenty in such a peaceful setting. Yet easy access to the town and exploring further afield. The hamper was great. Thank you. We had the best time!

We have just returned from our week away at Oak Apple Cottage, and from us ‘townies’ I would say saying here is a once in a lifetime experience.

You have a key to the forestry gate and as the only car travelling down the track (apart from the rare forestry vehicle) you are totally secluded! Heaven! The views are breathtaking and the walks and garden are superb for dog walks. The house is extremely well equipped and warm! A lovely welcome basket on arrival was a treat. And the owner was very easy to contact ( even when we locked ourselves out!!!) we will return.

Oak apple cottage was fantastic.

We had a lovely family break and wanted for nothing. The cottage, beds, showers, kitchen, space to relax inside and outside as well as the location were all perfect. The welcome bundle was incredibly indulgent and gratefully received. We had some great walks in the forest, down to the village and in the local area. I can’t see how you could have a bad stay here, if it wasn’t already booked up we’d be staying here as much as possible!

We were very impressed with the property as we booked Oak Apple Cottage to go somewhere a bit quieter that would also be very dog friendly and we were not disapointed.

The property was very warm even though the temperature outside wasn't. Our dog loved the outside space (as would any dog!). The welcome hamper was a nice touch as well. We really, really enjoyed our stay.

Beautifully maintained property and surroundings.

Saffron and Michael have provided a fantastic cottage experience. We were welcomed with a lovely welcome pack of treats and excellent guide book that gave us lots of ideas for activities for our family. Warm messages of concern we received because of some high winds were really gratefully received. We will be back to enjoy this wonderful corner of the world. Thank you Oak Apple.

Lovely house in great, secluded location.

Very comfy furnishings and generous welcome hamper. Really enjoyable holiday and friendly helpful hosts.

Fabulous, just fabulous!

! Absolutely loved our 4 night stay here, perfect location to get away, unwind and be amongst nature. The cottage is very spacious, with good sized bedrooms equipped with comfortable beds and lovely cosy bedding. The kitchen is superbly well stocked with everything you will need and all of really good quality which makes such a difference. The living area is very roomy with comfortable sofa’s and chairs with such a wonderful view across towards Presteigne, easy to see why this is upstairs rather than downstairs. The utility room is really useful, especially if you have a four legged friend that needs to dry off after a long walk, kindly equipped with a padded cushion and a jar of doggy treats

Excellent holiday, the accommodation was exceptional and in a perfect location with superb views.

. The owners made us feel very welcome, and ensured that we had a lovely vacation. Lovely welcome pack as well! Thank you very much, would recommend 100%
