What our customers say about their holidays

  The general cleanliness was not good.

  We had to wash cooking utensils before using them, there was also bits of hair and dirt in the drawer of the kitchen units. The cullender had green stuff on the bottom of it, so whoever had previously been there had not washed up properly and there's even a dishwasher. So there's really no reason for it not to be clean. The microwave was also in a filthy state with bits of food splattered inside it. There were cobwebs by the fire extinguisher and down the back of one of the bedside cabinets. Additionally, the walkway down to the property is very treacherous, particularly after it's rained, it was rather slippy and one of the steps appears to have broken in two and when I stepped on it, part of it slid from under my foot because of the wet soil/muddy texture underneath and I almost lost my footing. This needs to be rectified, it's only a matter of time before someone does fall, particularly if it's wet. The final thing is that we could not see anywhere to put, or any instructions where to put, our rubbish, nor the dog's poo bags. Consequently, we ended up leaving our rubbish in black bags inside the doorway and I had to leave the dog poo bagged up outside, with the little bags all bagged up in a bigger bag. This is not what we would normally do on a holiday, but we could not find anything in the information folder in regard to this. If it is in there, it needs to be made clearer. Or place suitable bins by the cottage for this. We took photos of the above problems (microwave, drawer, cullender, walkway.etc) should you need to see them.

  The area is very pretty and peaceful and the cottage well equipped and had far too many towels for just 2 people for 1 week stay.

  The owner provided treats for both dog and humans such as wine milk tea coffee sugar sweets logs but whilst these were very nice , I would have preferred kindling, matches and paper and a clean ready to use wood burner., a properly working shower ( it was just a trickle, extractor in bathroom wasn’t working either). Toilet was slightly blocked on our arrival (something an owner should have checked during cleaning ( if that had been done properly). I sorted it myself quickly enough. Bed linen whilst clean was not the correct size for the bed size. Window blinds missing in the bedroom. Sofa and lounge floor covered in white dog hairs. Owners dog had left a ‘welcome gift’ of their own on path down to cottage (owner did clean this away quickly but more appeared during our stay.) The outside area was very over grown , long grass and weeds. I would not return to this cottage which falls far short of the usual standard I expect from a Sykes cottage. Such a shame as with just a little bit more effort on part of the owner regarding maintenance, it would be a good cottage.

  What a charming cabin!

  We needed a relaxing weekend break and we couldn't have asked for more - gorgeous views of the valleys, countryside, not to mention all the baby lambs we saw on the drive in/out! The interior of the cabin feels immensely fresh and stylish, with so much attention to detail, and a full range of cutlery and utensils which was fab! There is mobile signal and wifi which was an added bonus though still feel so disconnected from the rest of the world which is exactly what we were hoping for. The hosts were lovely to meet and very quick to answer any questions! The cabins are easy to find so long as you follow the directions correctly. So many wonderful places to explore. Our small dog and toddler were able to play at their leisure in the enclosed garden. There is a second cabin too which if travelling in bigger groups would make a great additional space, as well as an extra hot tub! The hot tub was especially relaxing and very easy to work. We will definitely be returning! You will not regret staying here, thank you so much for having us ♡

  What a wonderful lodge, a gem of a find.

  My husband and I (and our two dogs) had a very pleasant stay with fantastic views, accommodation and facilities, everything you would need and like for a relaxing break away as a couple, family or group of friends. Banty and Rachel had thought about the customer experience very well, which included a rather lovely and well thought out welcome pack, and also for the pooches. There was various books and games to play too. The accommodation was very comfortable to stay in, including the beds. We took our PS5 so we could also watch Netflix, Sky Go, listen to music, or play on the console as desired. The hot tub was very well maintained, one of the cleanest we’ve been in, and was very relaxing taking in the breathtaking views. The dogs loved being able to run around in the enclosed garden and to watch and listen to the sheep in the fields and also numerous species of birds. We enjoyed it so much so that we’ve booked to return again in a couple of months time.

  Perfection!

  - I can honestly say this is the best accommodation we have stayed in. It was immaculate. It had everything you need for your stay; cooking and cleaning up equipment, a hairdryer, robes and towels for the hot tub all provided. The finishing touches and attention to detail was exceptional, including a welcome basket of treats, and even some for the dogs. There are a selection of books and games available to play, my son particularly enjoyed the sketchbook and pencils to draw. The show stopper though, is the incredible floor to ceiling views you could watch all day from inside, outside, or the hot tub! You can explore parts of the surrounding land and head out up The Hill for even more spectacular views and if the night sky is clear you can take advantage of the darkness and gaze at the stars above. Thank you for a brilliant few days, we have already been look at dates to return to unplug from busy city life and relax in perfect surroundings.
