I had visited Sticker before when I was very young, but had never appreciated what a lovely little place it is. It has an excellent local pub serving delicious home-cooked food and a dog park the like of which I have not experienced before (wish my local council would build one near where I live). The owners were delightful and welcoming and the house had every modern convenience we could have wished for. We loved being at Chy-Whel and were sorry to have to leave when our holiday came to an end.
