What our customers say about their holidays

  The booking process itself through Sykes was extremely easy, quick and user-friendly.

  A comprehensive confirmation was sent to us including several details from the owners. Details of location, parking and key pickups was also provided making the arrival at the cottage very straightforward. The cottage itself was immaculate and the welcome basket was indeed very welcoming! It even included treats for our dogs! Beds were comfortable and warm with lots of wardrobe and drawer space if required. Kitchen and bathroom were both spotless and had plenty of storage. Our only niggle was the shower. The pressure was very poor and we both had to use it as a hand spray. The temperature was good though and I don’t know if perhaps we didn’t use it properly. Would suggest perhaps that it is checked out anyway. I have chosen not to mark the cottage down because of the shower though because in every other way it was perfect and I highly recommend. Thank you very much ❤️

  This is a lovely modern cottage.

  The furniture is modern with clean lines and has been thoughtfully decorated. However , is only big enough for 2 even though it states in the description that it’s big enough for 4. The bed was a bit uncomfortable, this could really do with replacing. The description is a bit misleading- the cottage is very close to the sea, but you are not able to walk on the beach because it is mainly rocks. However, a 10 minute walk brings you to a sandy/rocky beach you can walk on. I you can easily get to other areas by car. We went to Loch Ness but unfortunately didn’t see Nessy. Although parking is on a first come first served basis, we didn’t have any problems finding a space. It is on a narrow street, and you do tend to bump into the neighbours as you are coming and going, but they are very friendly (and love dogs). The welcome hamper was lovely, and appreciated by both humans and dogs ❤️

  As perfect as a holiday let gets and the best we have stayed with through Sykes.

  While the property looks good on the advert it is even better in reality. It is the first place we have stayed where we didn't feel the need to clean things before using them. The property was spotless, everything had been thought of. The bed was comfortable too which seems to be a rare thing in many holiday lets. The views from the property were fantastic! It was nice to have a welcome pack, something a lot of places don't do now, what made it even nicer was it was thoughtful and homemade - the bread was delicious. The helpful pack in the property had also been considered and was well written was clear and simple instructions for everything in the property - really useful. We'd love to revisit at some point. Thank you to Margaret and Wilson for making our holiday so lovely by providing the perfect property!

  This property is really stunning, not just because of the actual cottage itself, but also due to the great views, especially as you enter the back garden through the double glass doors.

  The garden is spacious as is the cottage with an open plan lounge/dining/kitchen area. Bathroom downstairs consist of a power shower/ toilet and is spacious, whilst upstairs you can enjoy a bath in a free standing bathtub which is overlooked by a ceiling velux window to view the stars at night. All the bedrooms are roomy with the main one being the double bedroom downstairs just across from the bathroom. The owners live about 100yards away but were totally unobstrusive , but were there if you needed them. Great place and had a wonderful stay despite the wet week and the dog thought the garden was heaven

  Lovely cottage, Fantastic surroundings with a lovely walk in the woods by the ponds.

  Thank you for providing the snow during our stay it made a grate stay even better. My only gripe is that the lighting in the kitchen is not the best the cooker took an age to warm up and the hot water ran out quickly, but may I be so bold to suggest a few changes you may wish to do (and save on running cost) change the booster pump shower to a full electric shower and install a Multipoint water heater for the taps removing the need to have a hot water storage tank, change the cooker to an electric oven and a induction hob and replace the LED lamps you have from 1st-2nd gen to new 5th gen units.
