What our customers say about their holidays
Jim - Verified booking
A clean cottage, very convenient for the centre of Thirsk and its attractions.
Not sure though why it deserved its 5tick rating by Sykes :we have stayed in much better standard Sykes 4 tick properties It wasn't a particularly welcoming cottage and had none of the homely touches we have found in other Sykes cottages (initial tea /coffee etc , cleansing materials, books, games,etc) , parking access was awkward with the narrow gap and cobbles, the parking area itself overgrown , it was a dark dingy cottage , the lighting was not well thought out for practicality either upstairs or downstairs, the lounge seating was Ok for 2 adults but not 4 (see other guest comments) , the outside sitting area for 2 was basic and close to the waste bins, the beds weren't particularly comfortable or warm, we had to buy our own hair dryer (normal provided in Sykes cottages) , no laundry basket provided, some sort of divider/curtain for the opening between the kitchen and lounge to reduce the noise when using eg the washing machine would have been appreciated, the kitchen/diner layout was not ideal use of space and the oven /microwave both quite complicated to work out how to use, the washing up bowl wasn't large enough to fit the dinner plates ,the cloakroom downstairs was quite cramped ................

Absolutely lovely little cottage 90second walk from the centre of Thirsk.
The property had everything we needed (apart from a jug in the kitchen) the adjoining neighbour was extremely friendly and gave us the use of a single garage to store our bikes. The so called off road parking was completely unacceptable, the vehicle access was dangerously close to a wall and the front of the property - an inch at best either side of the car with no room for error. (Renault megane size vehicle) Larger height vehicles or bikes on roof etc would not pass under the arch way from the road either! The front neighbours also blocked access by parking in front of their garage door in a way that made it impossible to get by for the majority of our visit. The cottage does provide a parking permit to allow roadside parking when itâs available. This is not ideal when you have a dog and bicycles etc to move to and from the cottage. If you have a tiny car and are brave enough the cottage has a type of off road parking, if not, its roadside only. In my opinion it should be clearer about the parking situation. The cottage is lovely apart from that!!

This is one of the cleanest cottages I have ever stayed in.
The property owners have made a good effort to combine rustic charm with modern style and luxuries. I can only assume that the owners are either meticulous cleaners or that the property has been recently redecorated, because it was absolutely immaculate. The property was confusing and difficult to find, but the upside of that was that it made the property very secluded and private, which I enjoyed very much. Often with these rural cottages you have to park far away from the property and lug all of your belongings to and from the car, but the property's gated driveway made this a pleasant exception. Sleeping wasn't too bad, since the area is so quiet, but the bed is quite firm. This, in fact, is the only aspect where I could recommend improvement - The bed would benefit from a mattress topper or entirely new replacement and the sofas are pretty hard too. All in all, this is a very enjoyable and well-stocked cottage and would seriously consider booking again if I return to the area.

The owner mentioned building work next door and there was a previous review online complaining about the early noise and the owner responded saying they spoke to the builder etc.
We were out early most days hiking so it didnât bother us except the last two days. The builder started at 06:10! They were using a circular saw at 06:30! Utterly ridiculous and unreasonable. Generally the cottage is lovely, great location and modern decor and we would stay again if the owner changed the mattress in the back bedroom. We fed back to the housekeeper during our stay and I see previous guests had moaned in the guest book in the cottage about it as well! We were advised it was new in March. Itâs a very soft squishy Emma Mattress. Itâs already gone past itâs best and when you lie on it your feet are higher than your head! We had to sleep with our heads at the foot of the bed. Add extra plump pillows (no option for a flatter pillow) and a winter duvet, in the summer, it made for an uncomfortable nights sleep. Such a shame because apart from the bed and builder everything was great.

This cottage was a great find.
Much to my joy, there were fresh flowers in the kitchen, milk in the fridge, crisps, sweets and a local cake awaiting us along with tea and coffee. Tea towels and cleaning products were supplied too. The woodburner was laid and ready to be lit. The owner had obviously listened to previous suggestions and acted on all of them except for supplying an airer. There is an outside line but no pegs. Parking off road at the front was a bonus. New kitchen and bathroom. Courtyard will be a lovely space in the summer with table, chairs and a bbq. Unfortunately, at present, the solar lights were not working but it is only March! Bench in the front garden catches the sun. Would definitely like to return here again. Village has 2 pubs, both serving food, an excellent butcher, petrol station and hairdressers (l think). Close to beaches and on a very efficient bus route.
