  • "This is how a holiday cottage should be!"

    Spotlessly clean, everything you could need, washing up liquid, dishwasher tabs and even clothes detergent all supplied. Enclosed garden space for our 2 dogs. Bedrooms and bathrooms were excellent quality too. Lovely views, ample parking. A wonderfully generous welcome basket with cake, tea, wine, biscuits and coffee and milk and butter in the fridge. We’ve stayed in some ‘good’ holiday cottages over the years and they’ve turned out to be shockers but but this is one of the best if not the best! The owners were were friendly, welcoming and helpful and I highly recommend this cottage.

    Carol and family always on hand to help with any questions. Garden facilities very restricted however and fencing would have been desirable to create privacy between each property. Removal of dog fencing would then have been preferred. Outlook onto neglected farm buildings not desirable.

We ranged far and wide during our week, visiting Fountains Abbey, Rievaulx, Pately Bridge, York, Harrogate and Whitby, all of which were beautiful.

  • "Really comfortable and thoughtful restoration of old farm buildings to create three cottages."

    Impressive views and peaceful surroundings although situated on a working farm. Extremely comfortable beds, large bedrooms and beautiful bathrooms. Very well equipped kitchen - we wanted for nothing. Good wi-fi. Fantastic welcome pack with superb products from Betty's of Harrogate. All in all an excellent experience in terms of accommodation. The only downside for us, as non dog owners, was the fact that the people in both the other cottages each had two dogs and we were assaulted by a cacophany of very loud barking every time we went in and out of the cottage. The dogs were not always kept on leads and invaded our section of the garden and left their mess which was not always cleared up by their owners. Had it been summer I would not have felt comfortable using the garden and I definitely would not recommend this property to anyone who does not like dogs.

    This is definitely the best sykes cottage we have stayed in. We arrived shortly after the arrival time and met and welcomed by Carol the owner, who fetched us some extra blankets for our baby. We were very surprised to have a lovely hamper waiting for us filled with many items from Bettys Tearooms aswell as fresh eggs, and the fridge having butter, milk and orange juice. It had everything you could possibly need for a self catering holiday. It was a lovely touch that a new looking, solid cot was provided, which we had struggled to find elsewhere (and seeing this in the images before we booked). The decor was minimalist, but still stylish (ideal for a 15 month old and keeping breakables out of reach). Its clear Carol the family put alot of passion and time into the cottages as since making our booking and arriving, they had electric car chargers installed and Carol was very keen to hear our feedback when we were packing the car on the morning of our departure. Bravo and we hope to return in the near future!
