“Great selection of properties to choose from, all parts of the country are covered, to fit everyone’s budget. We have used them a few times now, never had any issues with them, trouble free holidays so far, excellent company.”
“No interest in supporting me when I reported the most filthy cottage I've ever stayed in. Hard to contact, and clearly don't vet properties properly any more. Thoroughly disappointed in them.”
“Sykes cottages is a very good website for booking short holidays! Any questions and you can call up the customer service centre. I really enjoyed my stay using Sykes cottages and would recommend this to anyone.”
“Have been using Sykes Cottages for about 10 years and have always found them exactly as described on the website. Have never been disappointed with the holiday accommodations.”
“We loved the cottage. We stayed there previously some years ago too.
It in a lovely location.
Maybe too quiet for some.
Very close to the light house and tin mines wirh beautiful sunset views.”
“Sykes were impossible to get hold of before our holiday. We wanted confirmation of double beds in both room. After 4 attempts to speak to someone they confirmed the beds but it did not happen. Ilfracombe itself with incredibly steep walking paths were impossible for me to use. This should have been highlighted in the description of the area. We had to leave 3 days earlier because I couldn’t leave the flat. I am 72.”
“Stayed at newlands cottage near Keswick. Brilliant stay. Everything we needed. Only slight problem was initial finding cottage as sykes map location and directions showed cottage nowhere near actual location. Spoke to owner and used what 3 words. Perfect. Sykes need to check their directions especially in remote locations. Otherwise very good.”
“Really enjoyed our stay here. The parking is a little limited as others can park near the property and unfortunately there’s only room for 3 cars. We were lucky that we only had an issue once. The place itself was clean and tidy and the children enjoyed the pool. We found the welcome email very informative from the owners and they were on hand to answer any questions before our trip. Would hope to come back again one day.”
“We had a delightful week in Lowena. It is perfectly located for the pub and shops and the beach. It was a great base for exploring the local area and the hosts were really helpful in making sure we had instructions and got in to the cottage. We will be back!”
“Sykes have always been are go to for UK holidays as they have the monopoly on the market.
However I recently had to resolve an issue and contacted Customer Service and the process was abysmal. Long hold times, unhelpful agents, difficulty with communication. Very stressful situation. I will rethink using them in future.”
“Group of 12 golfers.
Excellent accommodation, had everything we need for our stay. Tv took awhile to get working but apart from that really can’t complain. Shame the weather wasn’t great as we didn’t get the chance to use the well looked after garden.
Highly recommend, hopefully be back again.”
