What our customers say about their holidays

  • Nicholas - Verified booking

    This cottage is ideally placed for exploring the Lincolnshire coast.

    It is very close to the centre of Mablethorpe and provided enough parking for two vehicles. The Sykes listing says that the bedrooms have sloping ceilings. This is true. What they fail to mention, possibly deliberately, is that anyone over 5' 6" tall has to duck down to get through any doorway in the house. The ceiling on the upstairs landing varies between approx 4' 6" and 5' 6" and this headroom continues to the far wall of the front bedroom. I am 5' 11" tall and despite being very careful I caught my head on two door frames. Worse than that I tripped going into the back bedroom as I was concentrating on avoiding the low ceiling on the landing. I staggered sideways and took the skin off my elbow as I crashed into the left hand wall. I hope I am wrong but it would appear to me that the height restrictions are not mentioned by Sykes in case potential customers are put off. This though would surely make you negligent if a serious accident occurs? The bed was comfortable. The sofa was seriously uncomfortable. The kitchen is basically equipped. We bumped into the owner of the cottage on the second day of our stay. We mentioned we couldn't find any oven gloves. He thanked us for mentioning it and said he would get some. They hadn't arrived by when we left at the end of the week. Our previous experience with a Sykes cottage was completely different. Probably the best equipped cottage we have ever stayed in. I tried to contact Sykes the week before our stay. The website advised that by phone would be best. I could not get through. I am sorry this review is so negative but the accommodation was poor compared to dozens of other holiday cottages we have stayed in.

  • Su - Verified booking

    After travelling from Inverness to my native NE several times a year for the last 19 years to visit family and friends, we have stayed at dozens of holiday lets, but this is our favourite and the best by far.

    Communication with the owner prior and throughout was excellent. So friendly and polite. Earsdon is a lovely little country village and perfectly based for visiting the coast. Having the best of both worlds was especially wonderful as we could take our little dog, who was spoiled for walks. We booked the cottage for 2 weeks over Christmas and it was lush walking in to see it decked out with a gorgeous tree, a garland running up the stair, a wreath and cute little decorations. All very tasteful and in keeping with the stunning decor. It smelled/smelt (never know which it is!) gorgeous too. It was immaculate, and so warm and cosy. This meant so much to me as we’ve walked into some places rated 4&5 star and they’ve been filthy and run down! They left a very impressive festive hamper on the table for us which was so thoughtful and kind. Got tucked into the cheesy crackers straight away. Such a warm welcome. The kitchen is so well kitted out. It even has a crock pot, which we used once to do a curry. We ate out mostly though as there are such nice places to eat nearby (the beehive along the road and 1910 at the Spanish city). I can’t even tell you how great it was to have a tumble dryer! God send. All high end appliances. Lovely comfy beds. So quiet at night! I can’t recommend this gorgeous little cottage enough. Will defo be booking again, delightful. Thank you so much to the wonderful hosts, it would be nice to meet you guys one day! X

  • Bill - Verified booking

    I have already written to you.

    We arrived on Friday 3rd to find stinking overflowing rubbish bins next to the front door of Oar Cottage. On Friday night I had to move my car so that a drains person could open the drains - the next door property, also owned by Ganesh, had stinking drains and sinks. I took photos of the bins, and raised this with Ganesh, the owner, who was on holiday with his family in Fort William Scotland, and did respond immediately, saying he was new to holiday lets. I also wrote to you with photos. You responded but minimally. The bins were not cleared until Wednesday; we left on Friday. The cottage was not in the state claimed in the welcome email, and Ganesh said this was the fault of the cleaner. There were large dirty mats in the washing maching, and Ganesh could not explain why these were in the machine. I sent a photo to him and to you. Probably the cleaner again! Your response was minimal. All that said, the cottage is a good conversion (we met the builder who took away some of the rubbish bags) and very well located. Despite the unpleasant and unsanitary smells and sights, and the surprises in the cottage for example the state on arrival and mats in the washing machine.

  • Elliott - Verified booking

    Our stay at Taylor’s Cottage really exceeded expectations.

    We stayed for a month as we needed a temporary base close to family and Northumberland to relax, having just moved back from Europe, and couldn’t have picked a more welcoming place. Check in was super easy, contact free and the owner made sure everything was provided upon arrival. The kitchen was a dream, well equipped, the interiors were extremely tasteful, it was warm, very clean and the bedroom was so comfortable with plenty of wardrobe space. There are plenty of good walks around the area, really nice pubs close-by, groceries can easily be delivered if needed, it is close to Newcastle centre and everything is within reach. It’s rare to stay somewhere that feels like a home, but Taylor’s Cottage did. Every detail seems to have been thought of to make your stay hassle-free. It was very peaceful there, we didn't want to leave and we can’t thank you enough for your hospitality!

  • Paul Betty and - Verified booking

    We thoroughly enjoyed our stay at Taylor’s Cottage.

    It is very well equipped and the local area is surprisingly quiet and peaceful. It was the best Sykes cottage we have ever stayed in. The owner responded very quickly to a problem - there was no rubber mat to use when showering in the bath, but she delivered one within hours of our request, thank you! Our main concern was the rear patio is not enclosed as described and therefore we could not leave our dog out there unattended (she loves to sit in the garden). The patio opens onto neighbouring gardens and our Labrador took a fancy to the neighbour’s tomatoes! Also, as someone else has previously mentioned, the pillows are much too big. Luckily, we brought our own having read previous feedback. Despite the garden issue, we would probably stay at the cottage again because it was so clean and well equipped with nice quality furnishings etc.
