  So I wish I could include photos here as you would never stay in this cottage and unlikely to stay in a Sykes accommodation again.

  You needed a 4x4 to travel up the drive my car bottomed out several times with the potholes. Outside lights not working couldn’t see a thing, slippery decking slope couldn’t see key safe ridiculous. First initial impressions when entering were very positive, nice space and well laid out.and a welcome food pack Then… handle on the kitchen cupboard fell off, I noticed the floor kick board was kicked in. So the en-suite bathroom, the toilet was dirty,, I mean black stains and residue on the toilet seat, there was mould all over shower tray, water would not drain and after inspection found full of hair, shower glass filthy, shower extractor fan seemed poor under inspection clogged with dust. Main bathroom, the bath panel was kicked in, skirting rotted with damp, chrome filthy. Bedroom 3 with two singles, we used a cot, but both beds had broken slats so fell through when sat on them to dress the baby. I have phots of all this. Asked owner for assistance with outside lighting as it was dangerous his comment still on my phone was, “we had the opposite our lights on all night”,not what I wanted to hear. He came round and asked if all good with the property, it was New Year’s Eve and rather than cause a scene as I was so angry and upset and not in the best of moods and my partner didn’t want me to have a confrontation with him so I said all Ok, I wish I had shown him round I’m sure he would not have believed his eyes. Contacted Sykes sent them the photos, thought there might be compensation, a written apology. What a joke……… i

  On Friday 22nd of November we all arrived at Cranefield laithe, 4 couples and a two year old.

  It was lovely, clean, warm and everything we hoped it would be and more. In spite of having to contend with storm Bert we had the most enjoyable stay. Fabulous facilities, layout and style and it felt like a home from home. The layout was perfect and the on-suite bathrooms were stylishly designed. The bedding and mattresses were also excellent quality. We throughly enjoyed the hot tub despite the freezing temperatures and the log burner was a comforting focal point. The local area is so beautiful and plenty of walks and cosy places to eat . Malham Cove is a must see. The local people were so kind and helpful.This was especially noted when storm Bert meant we couldn’t risk getting back to our (home for the weekend) and a local guy who lives in the very quaint, Bell Busk was on his way home from the Bolton match and helped us to get to a safe point. Where our lovely host Racheal was more than happy to rescue us in her high, large wheeled 4x4 . We managed to get out for a beautiful Sunday roast in the Lister Arms too. So all was well and we continued to have a fabulous time till we left on Monday morning. We will return and we are already recommending to all who will listen.

  Superb location, well positioned for the east coast of Yorkshire.

  Close to Pickering. Very nice pub in the beautiful village of Cropton about 10 minutes walk. The Lodge itself is very clean and spacious in a very quiet but due to the trees dark location. Bedrooms are big enough but the double beds are too small for me and my wife but a King size would probably be too big for the rooms. Bed was hard and my wife found it very uncomfortable. Adequate wardrobe space. Bathroom is a wet room which is ok but took some clearing up after a shower as the water always escapes. The shower head clamp does not fit which needed some modification with a sponge cloth to make it useable. The Kitchen was very well equipped with Dish washer, good oven, and plenty of utensils. No washing machine which was disappointing. Lounge kitchen diner was very spacious and the furniture in very good order. All in all a pleasant stay but due to beds would not use again.

  We arrived early evening and were a bit worried about arriving in the dark. We were so happy to find the place lit up with welcoming lights, first impressions were very good. It was clean and tidy, high quality appliances and furniture and bedrooms very comfortable. The view over Robin Hoods Bay was amazing. The hot tub was running and we were so happy to be able to use it on the first night. On a clear night, sitting in the hot tub with the stars above was so relaxing. Our dog was able to wander around the garden and felt very at home. We didn’t use the garden room but looked lovely, or the BBQ….. maybe we will come back in the summer months for longer to enjoy those too. The location is perfect for walking to the Bay in about 30 mins (4 minutes in the car) and a 9 minute drive from Whitby. Can highly recommend. Absolutely lovely property.

  Lovely clean lodge, with good quality funiture and equipment.

  Great welcome pack including a bottle of wine which was much appreciated, as were some wonderful fresh raspberries delivered on arrival. The two bathrooms were ideal for us as a family of adults, lashings of lovely hot water, so all could shower and bath as required. Lots of magazines and games for use if the weather wasn't good. Very well eqipped with washing mashine, dishwasher, microwave, smart TV and Wi Fi, although it would have been useful to have some instructions on how to use the equipment, the cooker took me some time to work out how to use it as I have never used an electric cooker. We had a very comfortable stay, which was excellent value for the facilities on offer. The beds were a little too soft for us as we like a firm mattress, but that is a personal preference. We would happily book a stay here again.
