“Excellent location, beautiful cottage. Snowdrop cottage was really clean with well equipped facilities. Beautiful area, loved the fact we had the choice of a walk on the moors or a walk on the beach.”
“Grange Cottages, Flamborough - Guillemot Cottage
Great place to stay in Flamborough, excellent cottage accommodation, fully equipped kitchen, walk in shower room, large bedroom (ours had a four poster!). TVs and WiFi. Location brilliant for visiting local attractions and towns, don't forget to check out the RSPB site at Bempton cliffs - the puffins might be in town! Scarborough, Filey and Bridlington all within easy reach plus Danes Dyke and Flamborough Head just down the road. Had a very enjoyable week including sunshine and blue skies for 7 days, wow. Sure to be back soon.”
“We had a recent stay in Peels Place Noddle in Eskdale and had to leave the property a day early, as the damp and mould in the cottage triggered allergies for most of the guests and I suffered with my asthma. The house could be lovely and is in a beautiful location (a bit tricky to find and our car only just fit down the lane), but needs a complete renovation. It needs more than a deep clean (strong smell of years of accumulated dirt); furniture and fittings date from the 1970's, furniture is badly stained and damaged, curtains are filthy, very old with missing curtain rails, kitchen lino is badly damaged and all kitchen cupboards and fittings dirty, and very dated. Evidence of a damp problem with black mould, rotten windows, ensuite shower is unsafe to use (freezing cold to scalding hot). More minor issues; only one set of jets working in the hot tub and it clearly hadn't been cleaned recently, no play station that we could find as advertised, the large notice board in the entrance way full of family photos from the 70's and 80's just felt a bit inappropriate for a holiday cottage, the key didn't work for the front door, the downstairs sink was out of use. On the plus side, Miles the owner is really lovely, friendly and kind. I'm sorry for Miles to be leaving such a negative review (and he did say he would get a plumber in and would address the problems but it needs more than a bit of patching up). I really feel that the house should not be let to the paying public in such a state, especially with the cost of self catering now so high. To be fair to Miles it is not the first terrible house we have rented through Sykes, and it's a lesson learnt not to use Sykes again as they clearly do not vet the quality of their lets.”
“The accommodation, in my experience has been routinely good - the quality and location of the accommodation is extremely high and there is always access to every service and utensil that might be required. Moreover, the assessment of space and propriety of party size is spot on.”
“Just had our 2nd year running staying the Old cowshed Banwell weston supermare using Sykes cottages, great value for money and easy to book and pay in installments. Time to book again for next year 😌 🤗”
“Very easy website to use and book through. Competitive prices and discounts. Nice to see the same properties on their books, good reflection of consistency. I always check with Sykes for their prices are usually the best.”
“We were very happy with the house. It provided all the necessary accommodation for 3 couples. It was extremely clean, instructions were clear and decoration is stylish. Views from the property are beautiful and there is a handy shop just down the road. Several pubs are nearby and Chester’s cafe is not far. You could just stay in the area and have no need to go to the busy towns. Will definitely recommend and return to this property if we need this set up again.”
“Brucap Cottage has everything you need for a holiday and is perfectly located for the beach.
It is clean, well maintained and comfortable.
We got lucky with the weather and the garden furniture was put to good use”
“The apartment we stayed in was lovely with beautiful sea views from the kitchen diner and the lounge.
However, we found Ilfracombe was not for us. It's very hilly, very quiet with a lot of places shut down and not many places nearby to visit as we like to use local buses when we are away.”
“An ideal apartment in Salcombe, very well eqipped, plenty of hot water, heating if required and parking, a bonus in a place like Salcombe.
2 small grumbles, the settees are not comfortable and the door onto the balcony was stuck ( this was dealt with promptly when reported but I was amazed to deal with a pleasant young man in Kosovo on the phone !)”
“The cottage was in a very convenient location for using public transport and for Pannett Park, which is lovely at any time of year, and particularly appealed to my granddaughter, who loved all the apparatus in the children's playpark.
The cottage was well appointed and there was suitable heating available. The shower was excellent.
My only small criticism was that I couldn't work out how to get tv channels as programmes were happening, but had to do 'catch up' on iplayer etc.
We all had a thoroughly enjoyable holiday, and I would be very happy to stay at Abbey View in the future.”
“I already sent one review. Good location, clean tidy, good showers. Needs somewhere to hang coats, table in kitchen and a couple of chairs and a place outside to hang wetsuits.”
