Birch Cottage Reviews

It would be difficult to find anything negative to say about this holiday property. It is unusual for a holiday property to fully meet our expectations, but this one does. Our dogs love it and so do we. Only very minor comments are that we could not find an egg whisk in the kitchen and the grass was a bit long.
Wonderful property. Felt instantly relaxed when we got there. Hosts fantastic and there if you needed. Comfortable and clean. Loved the hot tub. Property is in a fantastic location.
We really liked this cottage, it is an excellent location and the garden is very secure for the dogs. The owner is friendly and helpful.
Steven
Such a lovely cottage in a beautiful setting. Property itself had a really lovely modern interior with all the facilities you could possibly need. We loved the hot tub too! We spent early mornings in the garden enjoying the stunning views. The owners kindly left us a lovely welcome pack of bread, eggs, bacon & lots of other goodies. Lots of lovely places to visit nearby. Rye is a lovely town & Camber sands is a great beach. We are National Trust members & found lots of lovely properties & gardens nearby to visit. We would definitely recommend Birch Cottage as the perfect place to stay whilst exploring this beautiful part of the country.
Beautiful cottage, everything we needed for our stay, great welcome pack on arriving, so peaceful, garden was perfect, plenty of outside seating, totally enclosed and safe for our dog, had a wonderful week.
Louise
Home from home property, no problems or issues. As always another good Sykes cottage
We found the property as per brochure. a very restful week was had by all in the party. we look forward to a return visit in the future. many thanks.
Trevor
We loved everything about Birch cottage and Rye area. The accommodation is first class, everything we needed plus goodies nibbles and drinks for our arrival which were lovely. Thank you. Lovely private garden overlooking fields and enjoyed the hot tub in the garden. Very dog friendly, dog safe garden and poo bin in garden which many places overlook. It was a heat wave, the week we were there, so the only minus was unable to have a window open at night as all were garden doors. With normal weather this is probably not an issue. Rye is lovely, nice walks in the area and we did several NT visits. Thank you again.
The whole family had a fantastic time at Birch Cottage , it was easy to find in great surroundings. The owners are very nice and did not bother us all week but on hand if there was a problem. The highlight of the week was the HOT TUB which was used every day. Back next year. Thanks
Anthony
The cottage was very nice but the outside area wasnt, the grass hadnt been cut, the patio area needed sweeping and the weeds down the side area were enormous. It didnt spoil our stay, but the outlook could have been better.
We had a lovely time at Birch Cottage. We were very comfortable and loved the high standard of the decor and beautiful view from garden. Bit disappointed not to be able to walk dogs without getting in car though.
The cottage was perfect. Everything you could possible want. Great hosts, brilliant location, warm comfortable and very welcoming. Even our dog felt at home! Fantastic views and a lovely hot tub to relax in.
We couldn't fault Birch Cottage it has a real wow factor for design and comfort and the views across to Camber Castle and Winchelsea Beach are stunning. The owners were so friendly and always on hand to answer any questions or help with suggestions of where best to walk our dog etc. We have already booked to go back next May so I guess that says it all!!
We had a great stay! ! Birch Cottage is a modern, organised and well equipped property with a lovely view hot tub was a treat even on cooler days! The garden was very dog safe for our little one! Lots of places to visit, and always nice and cosy to come back to in the evenings.
Excellent little cottage with superb views. Welcome pack was very much appreciated and sitting in the hot tub as the sun goes down looking out towards the sea was perfect.
We absolutely loved staying in Birch cottage, so much so that we booked our next stay before leaving! Everything was so user friendly for staying with our dogs, and genuinely welcoming for them too. Secure garden as described , in fact so secure and quiet my nervous dog relaxed for the first time ever away from home. The property is beautifully appointed throughout for a comfortable stay for us humans too. Lovely welcome pack, and the view from the hot tub is stunning.
An outstanding property, with more comforts than you would have at home. Near to Rye for shopping, walks nearby, and the seaside.We enjoyed the wonderful location and views from the garden, and sitting in the hot tub! The owner Nina, was very kind and was on hand for any info we may have wanted. I will definitely tell friends and hope to be down ourselves again in warmer weather.
Birch Cottage was one of the loveliest cottages we have stayed in and definitely the most dog friendly everything was perfect and even better than we thought it was going to be from the pictures and description. The location was very peaceful with a distant sea view from the garden and the interior of the cottage was very spacious, well designed and beautifully decorated, equipped with everything that we needed. All in all a very relaxing enjoyable stay and would definitely recommend this property.
Very well presented and spacious accommodation. The owners have created a lovely place to stay with great attention to detail. Excellent bathrooms with large showers and baths. Modern open plan kitchendiningliving room with high ceilings giving a very spacious feel with lots of light. Extra nice touch was the food hamper on arrival with a bottle of wine and other goodies in the fridge!. The owners were very welcoming with some great advice on the local area.
The country house offers everything for a perfect holiday. The rooms are spacious and very tastefully and comfortably furnished. The equipment offers everything that is needed and much more. The beautiful garden with ist beautiful garden furnitures invites you to play and relax and from the whirlpool you have a wonderful view over the beautiful landscape to the sea. And the landlady is very welcoming and always available for questions about the apartment but also helpful if, for example, restaurant or excursion tips are needed. We have spent a wonderful family holiday at Birch Cottage.
