Freshwinds Reviews

Gorgeous house in a very peaceful location. We had ages 5 to 75 on this break and we all had a wonderful time. The pool and hot tub were a great hit with everyone. House was very well equipped with everything you could possibly need. Would definitely highly recommend it.

Samantha

Brilliant place to celebrate the chilling 40th birthday with swimming pool and hot tub. Nice cosy and fab layouts. They love your ice machine for their nice ice cold cocktails!

We had a fabulous time at Freshwinds. The instructions, directions and communications were spot on. Steve was very welcoming when showing us around. The property is well appointed and we had no problems relaxing and keeping ourselves entertained. The pool room, karaoke, swimming pool and hot tub were a treat and there was plenty of room for us all to find a quiet nook if needed. We are already planning next years trip!!

The house was great with plenty of room for 13 people. We were a bit disappointed that there wasnt a lot of fridge space as the big American style fridge was tucked away in the pool house and had a sign on not in use. Although we used the pool, it was a bit on the cool side and we didnt stay in for too long , though the hot tub was well used. The younger members enjoyed the x boxes, karaoke machine and the pool table Just a 10 minute walk to the local pub which has a good sized garden

Naftoli

This is a fantastic, tranquil property, with excellent facilities. Stephen and Robert are great communicators and went out of their way to make our stay as comfortable as possible.

Overall it was great for a family holiday and the children in the party loved all of it. The kitchen was well provisioned but a little bit tired.

Jillian

Absolutely brilliant stay everything you could wish for for the children and adults. 6 adults and 5 children had a lovely family stay.

Rebecca

Absolutely fantastic weekend thank you. Everywhere was immaculate. We had a group of 10 of us and there was plenty of room. The swimming pool was warm and used lots. The spa great. So much to do. Unlike other houses there was plenty of room for us to sit and eat together. Beds were really comfortable too. We had a delivered curry from Lodge India, which was lovely. Highly recommend.

Had a fab time the property was brilliant there was nothing it didn't have outdoor area was stunning especially at night with all the lights . Kids loved it so much to do the pool, table tennis ,football pool hottub . Owner was friendly and accommodating was a perfect holiday

Thomas

Absolutely beautiful. The venue was excellent to celebrate our Birthday together 70th 66th 16 of us stayed Inc 6 grandchildren they loved the pool and hot tub. Everything was on hand and we made good use of the washing machine and tumble dryer. Bedrooms were spacious and spotless. Enough toilets to go round gardens were great with plenty to explore. 100 We will definitely be going back. Tv and Karaoke went well in every room. The only Downside of the whole holiday was the owner of the house next door. Had a JCB going from 08.00 to 17.00 Destroyed any peace and tranquility for which we needed. To help us rest bite from major ongoing terminal operations. We also had an infestation of ants which may have been caused by the groundwork that was caused by the next doors owner. They also had a fire going which sent ash over into our pool area contaminating all our excellent facilities which we had to clean up before we could carry on with our holiday. It truly spoilt our holiday. And was of no fault to the excellent venue. We would highly recommend Fresh winds and look forward to a return Health permitting.

Excellent property and facilities.

Leslie

Well what can I say to do this property justice, it absolutely exceeded all our expectations! ! As a family its very rare to get us all together for any length of time & this property allowed us to do just that this weekend! At no time did any of our five grandchildren aged between 6 & 12 say Im bored which is in its self amazing!! The pool area along with the hot tub was used all day with an array of inflatables to use!! There was everything you could wish for from darts to ping pong, Xbox to karaoke which we all used!! The kitchen was well equipped with everything you could need along with washing machine & tumble drier which came in handy for the pool towels provided!! This was the perfect 60th birthday celebration for my husband who just wanted his family together & he loved every minute as did everyone!! We have so many photo's & precious memories made!! A special thank you to Stephen Smith who went above & beyond to ensure we had a memorable stay!! Would definitely consider going back some time in the future!!

We were a group of 16 aged between 1 and 73 and the house was just perfect for us. I was a little worried that it was going to be a bit run down as the photos show the house is quite dated but I dont think the photos do the house justice at all! The place is immaculate! It is old fashioned in parts but it has been so well maintained and is spotlessly clean. It feels so homely due to all the added extras the owner has considered for all ages, the biscuits and bottle of port on arrival, the decor the games and toys, Xboxs, karaoke, the little ones loved the giant dinosaur in the bedroom and the little man cave outside. The games area in the garage was a huge hit too. We loved that we could easily switch the table up to change from pool to air hockey and table tennis and also play darts too. The outside area is amazing and despite the endless rain we still made use of the pool and hot tub. Summer here would be spectacular! The kitchen was very well equipped with everything you need, even herbs and spices in the cupboards. We reported that the washing machine appeared faulty and even though we said it wasnt an issue and that we didnt need it anymore it was replaced within half an hour. All the bedrooms were a great size, nicely decorated and very comfortable. If I can suggest one improvement it would be hooks or something to hang bath towels on to dry. Really minor but that was the one and only thing I thought could be better. Overall, absolutely perfect stay, thoroughly enjoyed by all.

Spent four days celebrating 80th Birthday with family of 11 people. All facilities as described and everyone enjoyed their stay. Swimming pool and hot tub were much appreciated, together with all the other facilities which kept us occupied even though the weather was cold and wet. House was lovely and warm and comfortable. Special mention to Steve for his handover and help. Nothing was too much trouble for him.

The photo's don't do it justice. We were a party of 13 adults for a 50th Birthday and we had plenty of room, the facilities are neverending. Everything you could want and more. The bottle of Port and the gingerbread was very much appreciated.

Angela

Was a beautiful property and nicer than the pictures. The facilities and attention to detail with extras for our stay, sets this property apart.

We had a fabulous weekend celebrating my 70th birthday, there were Fourteen of us, ages ranging from 30 to 79. All our needs were covered, most of us ventured into the pool, which, considering it was early February, was fairly warm. The hot tub was very welcome after our swim though. A lovely time was had by all.

Charlotte

We went to Freshwinds for a large family Christmas. Loads of space and something to entertain everyone. The bedrooms were great sizes and very well looked after, the living areas were cosy and homely. The extra effort made for our family was lovely, Christmas lights everywhere and presents under the tree. We were worried beforehand about lack of fridgefreezer space to accommodate 13 of us, but there are extra appliances dotted about. A night out in Newcastle under Lyme only cost 20 back in an uber. The nearby Coop.was well used. So many little quirky extras to this place, we loved it

Very comfortable house with everything you need, we were a party aged 1 to 60, made good use of the hot tub and a couple of people even braved the pool despite temps of 4 outside. The decorations lit up the house outside and inside making it feel very much like Christmas. Walked to Loggerheads for a meal which took around 20mins and would recommend a visit to Trentham Gardens, well worth the admission fee with a number of shops at the entrance to the gardens too.

Stayed here for a week at end of September with family members ranging from ages 579. The weather wasnt particularly nice, quite a lot of rain so unfortunately children couldnt enjoy the garden as much as they would have liked. BUT it didnt stop anybody enjoying the pool & the hot tub, both very nice & warm. The indoor sporty facilities were used & thoroughly enjoyed. The rooms & facilities were clean & comfortable if a little dated in places. Plenty big enough for our family party of 11. Maybe lacking in another bathroom & would have been great to have had an outdoor shower & toilet. But, all in all an extremely enjoyable break. Thank you.

Great location and house. So many facilities and things to keep you entertained at the property! Would stay again

Mohammad

Lovely house was enjoyed by the whole family. Host was super helpful and accommodating. Highly recommend!

Furnishings and decor require updating. Kitchen units need attention as do some torn and ripped carpets. Hot water was not always available.

Dated, but very clean, great facilities x

Carina

Lovely house perfect for our stay. We were a party of 11 adults with 8 children 5 of which were in travel cots so plenty of room for all! The house was clean well equipped and we had a great fun. The pool was a bit too cold for us to use in the weather we had but clean and wellaibtained would be fab in summer. The hot tub was well appreciated as was the darts and ping pong area. Garden was massive and spanned several areas which was great for an Easter egg hunt and the football pitch was also well used by the young and adult boys. Thanks to the hosts for an easy and pleasant stay including returning items left behind!

We had a lovely stay at Fresh winds, friends travelled from all over the country and it was easy to get to. Great facilities and lots of room. The house is a little bit dated but that didn't impact on our stay at all.

Outstanding facilities for leisure activities, very spacious and comfortable ... Outstanding facilities for leisure activities, very spacious and comfortable the only minor draw back is there are only three bathrooms with one being ensuite Highly recommended for family weekend

We went here for a belated 30th birthday get together with family and we couldnt of asked for a more perfect property. It had everything you could ask for, the hot tub & pool was such a treat and the lights outside made it even more special,The location was stunning and so peaceful, lots of special memories were made here that well remember for a long time. Thank you!

George

We were four families and stayed for the weekend. All the boys aged 10 had a fantastic time and made full use of all the facilities including the games rooms, pool and hot tub. We too thoroughly enjoyed our stay and found the house comfortable and clean. We were 13 people in total and the only downside was the hot water run out fairly quickly, so a few of us had to have cold showers and the heating didnt seem to work all the time. This did not however take away from our experience and we will def be looking to book again in the future.

Tracey

This place was amazing every think you need. We will definitely be returning

Jeffrey

Freshwinds was an absolutely gorgeous place to stay. Lots of room and lots to do. From the pool table to the football table, to the heated outdoor pool that isn't small! About 8ft deep at one end and a comfortable maybe 4 ft at the other, plenty of room for lots of fun!, to the amazing hot tub, which comfortably sat 5! to the extensive gardens where there is always something to see, to the football pitch, to the selection of games both indoors and in the summer house too. There is also the karaoke, another nice addition, although we didn't use it, it was nice to know it was there. Comfortable beds, beautiful views. Amazing. My words of advice to anyone is this, please be aware, it is based on a hill, which is quite steep. Also, there are a fair few steps, so please bear that in mind...But honestly, once in, I only popped out for supplies and we spent the whole week there relaxing and enjoying the house! Stephen then maintenance gentleman, popped by most days, just to make sure all was OK, and the gardener came most days to upkeep the garden, but we rarely saw him, if we did he was helpful and kind. The biggest issue we had was the fridge, as it simply wasn't big enough or working well enough, for the size of the house. There is an extra American fridge freezer in the shed by the pool, but, not practical for food for the kitchen all the way through the house. I'm hoping this gets sorted as that was the only major issue we had. I can highly reccomend this stunning house to anyone. Thank you for letting us enjoy it! I'm hoping to return in the future.

Lauren

Freshwinds was a lovely holiday home in a lovely quiet area. We had views of fields with horses and rabbits every morning. There were 5 families altogether and there was plenty of space for everyone. Great choices for entertainment with TVs with Sky and Netflix, karaoke, table tennis, game consoles, football, trampoline and toys for kids. The hot tub was kept on throughout and they came to clean it during the stay so we could make good use of it, which we did It was a little cold when we stayed but we were able to use the pool a couple of days as the heated aspect took the edge of. The inflatables provided were a nice touch and gratefully appreciated by the kids. We went on some country walks and visited Tretham Monkey forest nearby which is a must. However most of the time we spent relaxing at the house as there was so much to do and the main reason we had come. The staff who look after the house and gardens are extremely friendly and helpful. They even came to help us diagnose a car issue wed had on the way up and recommended local garages for us. Our only negative was we felt their should be more towels provided considering the hot tub and pool but as long as you pack some extra towels youll be fine as there is a washing machine and tumble dryer available. Would definitely consider booking again!

Amazing family stay at Freshwinds. We were so lucky with the weather so made full use of the pool, hot tub, BBQ please provide matches or a lighter for this though, had to ask the gardener!. Karaoke machine was a big hit, as were the Xboxes and tons of tellies for the children! Would benefit from a bigger fridge and indoor recycling bins but we were very happy with our choice of holiday house. Thanks to Steve for showing us around when we arrived, very friendly and helpful.

Fantastic house,one of the best we have rented from Sykes. A big thankyou to Steve and his team were really helpful,sorting out quickly the small problems we had. Pool a real hit with the family as well as the table tennis table. Had a super meal at the Peel Inn, real home cooked food, and within walking distance of the house. Hope to return soon.

We all had a brilliant stay at Fresh Winds, it's a beautiful house with everything you need for your stay, would definitely stay again.

We stayed here for a Hen weekend & had a lovely time. The house has amazing space inside & out. The only reason I've not given it a 5 star is the towels do need to be abit bigger & please buy a better hoover as the one you have is way to small for the size of the house. Overall I would recommend this property to others. Thankyou

Yvette

It is a lovely property but very difficult to find unless you have spoken to Steve or Rob who will then tell you the better directions to put in your satnav to find the property. Steve and Rob are both very approachable. The property is ideal for a multigeneration family holiday. Helped by really good weather we were all able to make full use of the pool, hot tub, table tennis and the fabulous gardens.

We have just spent a week with family at the property, the rooms were spacious and comfy, with pretty balconies. Inside space was good and plenty of room for us all to sit and eat together, The outside space was better than we thought, the pool was heated perfectly, along with the hot tub which both got used by everyone all ages. The hosts were helpful and waiting for us when we arrived, would return.

It was a great to have such a great place for holiday and everything was there ... It was a great to have such a great place for holiday and everything was there I would say 5star and mr steave and his wife so great and they eat there when we need them
