    The owner rang me the day before to say I could check in early as the property was empty, and this thoughtfulness is a perfect example of how the owner thinks about her guests. There was a generous welcome hamper as well. I would recommend this cottage as a perfect base for exploring around the area.

They thought of everything and supplied some excellent extra touches. The welcome pack is very informative and very useful. There is a parking space at the back of the property which is accessed down Althea Terrace ( take the first left ) a lovely garden complete with furniture to use in the warmer weather. There are even two dressing gowns and slippers for guests use. The roll top bath is divine. There are lots of books, dvd's and board games to enjoy on days when the weather is cold or wet. The bed is very comfortable and we were sad when our week came to a close. I highly recommend this cottage and we found the neighbours were so nice and helpful.There is a little shop and post office about a minute walk away and the Fox and Hounds takes another half a minute to walk.

    I'm not sure if it states this in the description but it might be worth noting the low ceiling in the bathroom and also the low ceiling between the kitchen and the living room. It would also be helpful if the directions to the property were revised - on approaching the property you need to drive down Althea Terrace and then turn first left into the parking area.

    Well equiped with everything you need including a well stocked welcome pack. We made good use of the of the log burner as it was a cold windy weekend we were there. Situated in a quiet village location but close to Lincoln for city visits. The only gripe is the sofa cushions could do with replacement foam. We certainly recommend this holiday cottage.

    Hello Paul, Thank you for your lovely feedback and the wonderful message you left in our book. The sofa is an over stuffed feather type and it does need a thump to get them back in place. We our looking to address this shortly. Hope your journey home was trouble free. Property Owner

  • "The holiday property was first class and we could not find fault."

    If we were to be really really picky then some more cutlery and crockery would be great but that would only be to save on using the dishwasher too much. The host was excellent and very caring. However I would not recommend Sykes Cottages as we had a voucher given to us as a present which we were unable to use due to lockdown....the company refused point blank to extend it.

    Hello Mark, Thank you for your wonderful feedback and a little advice about the crockery. I have now increased the amount in the cupboards - that was a good idea Property Owner

    We really loved the decor throughout and the warm ambiance. We were very appreciative of the welcome treats and the thoughtful touches to ensure we were comfortable. Tracey messaged us soon after arrival to give us her contact number in case we needed anything or had a problem - which we didn’t. The Cottage is so cosy and the log burner was a treat. We enjoyed exploring the local area and would recommend The Carpenter’s in Fiskerton for a lovely Sunday lunch. Thank you so much.

    Not only had the owner left us a lovely welcome pack there were other little details which helped to make us feel welcome, like spare bathroom items we would quite often forget, bath robes and slippers, spare washing and dishwasher tabs etc. This attention to detail is so important. The cottage was beautifully decorated and had a sweet little garden. I thought from the pictures it may be a little too twee but it wasn't at all. The rooms were all spacious. There were plenty of books and DVD's and information about the surrounding area. Other guests had left some recommendations of places to visit, eat out etc. We visited the local National Trust properties and spent 2 days wondering around Lincoln.

    It is beautifully decorated, we'll maintained, spotlessly clean and has car parking directly in front of the garden gate. The cottage is located just opposite 'the green' and is in a particularly quiet spot, so no road noise at night. The cottage was well equipped with everything needed for the perfect stay, we can't praise the accomodation enough, needless to say we had a very enjoyable, relaxing stay. Lincoln city centre is only a 10 minute drive away, so the cottage is in an ideal location for visiting this historic city. We can't recommend this accomodation enough which is a credit to the owner and can't wait to return. Thank you Tracey

    I think I hit my head about five times in the week. Thankfully the weather was wonderful. Your information on how to register for COVID is onerous and involves some timewasting. You ask us to put all the party details on your website which I did. You then ask us also to send these details to the property owner if we do not have or use the NHS track and trace app. We do not use it. The owner was suprised to hear this, first time she said, maybe everybody has the NHS app. Why ask us to complete all the party details and then you do not email them on the owner? Her email was also listed incorrectly in the welcome folder. Probably corrected now, I hope so. You emailed me a lot before the trip, mainly with advertising. So overall experience of booking and payment site was about 5 out of 10. The only thing you did really efficiently was take my money! Mike

    The well maintained garden was a bonus, especially as it turned out to be a sun trap. We spent some considerable time relaxing there. A great deal of thought had been put into the details and the details count. The kitchen was well equipped and the lounge warm and comfortable. The bathroom, with both roll-top bath and walk in shower, came with a range of towels and extras that one might have forgotten to bring.
