I usually find Sykes really good but on phoning recently to ask a bout me being a able to contact owner regarding access to property I was going to the lady I spoke to was very unhelpful and lacked people skills very disappointed poor training or she didn't care πŸ™πŸ™πŸ™

Absolutely Stunning Property - the garden was immense and the lake at the bottom beautiful. The dogs had a great holiday they could chase about and play all day ( while we rested with a drink) Kitchen very well equipped but lovely pub over the road serving great meals ( Sunday Lunch,) Would definitely go back .

I have used Sykes for many years and enjoyed every place I've visited but I am only giving the 3 stars because if you have a problem good luck with that, there customer services are abysmal, you cannot get in touch with anybody at all on the phone or messaging

Easy site to use whether you are looking to book a cottage in a specific area or just to search for ideas. Lots of choices and booking is an easy process.

Our stay in the New Forest at Foxes Earth, was excellent. The cottage was beautifully presented, clean and well equiped.

It has the widest range of properties available and gives more detailed information about each property (e.g type of heating) than I have found with other agencies. Such a pity that it too often reverts to the Bloom site with its horrid vertical listings and far less information immediately available. I have also recently been trying to review a cottage but your invitation to do so only leads to a meaningless list of properties. Are standards slipping?

Im sure its fair to say this is one of the best seaviews from a holiday rental we have ever had-it was well equipped and comfortable and we hope to return

It was fairly easy to book,however,finding a phone number to book over the phone is not that simple. Once the booking had been made ,a number of emails kept coming, some of which did not appear to be necessary.

We really enjoyed our stay at Acorn Lodge. A few things to mention were the overwhelming smell of air fresheners which were everywhere, and the dining chairs were very low. Other than that a lovely lodge 😊

We have been using Sykes for a good number of years. There Cottages and Lodges are good value and we have never been dissapointed. If your first choice is booked up there are always plenty of options and if you need help you can speak to a real person. What ever the budget they have it. We would have no hesitation in recommending them.

We stayed at The old Kipper Hoose in Gardenstown. The house was fantastic with everything you could need and of a really high quality. The location was also excellent, right be the sea front. We had a really great holiday

We had a lovely relaxing break at The Folly. Chris and Sally met us on our arrival and were helpful and friendly and left us to settle in. The Folly is compact but has everything you need, well planned out, cosy warm and very clean. The hot tub is a bonus, great way to relax in peaceful surroundings. Loads of great walks on the doorstep and a decent pub a stones’ throw away. Also walking distance to Grassington where there are lots more cafes, restaurants and The Devonshire is excellent for service and food. Would highly recommend The Folly.

Excellent location with guaranteed parking in Whitby. Quiet dog friendly house located in a courtyard and has fully enclosed yard at the back Equipped with all amenities including a hot tub. 10 minute flat walk to the swing bridge and centre of Whitby. This was our 3rd stay at Salt Bay as this the best location we have stopped at in Whitby

Just on the outskirts of Brampton, Dove Cottage is one of a collection of cottages attached to a working farm. Very comfortable & cosy with everything that you would need for a leisurely base. Thoroughly recommended
