• "Thank you Steve and Dawn for another wonderful stay at Eric House."

  We enjoyed the house even more this time as we stayed in each evening after our trips out during the day when the weather was kind. The location of the house is brilliant for visiting both the coastal resorts and inland villages.You have thought of everything to provide a home from home holiday and the decor/equipment and maintenance is first class. The welcome gift was very much appreciated and delicious thank you. Of all the holiday accommodation we have stayed in over the years, Eric House is the best and we are looking forward to visiting again in 2024. Best wishes, Stuart, Sue and Philip.

  Hi all, We are so pleased that you had another fantastic stay at Eric House and that we have maintained our standards since your last visit. We look forward to welcoming you back during 2024. You are most welcome. Best wishes Steve and Dawn Property Owner

• "This is the second time we've visited this house."

  Its absolutely amazing. One of the best Sykes houses we've used. It's the perfect base to travel around Yorkshire: Filey, Scarborough, York, Whitby. The house is immaculate and has everything you need! Would highly recommend.

  Thank you Joanna, It was lovely to see you as you arrived. The feed back from your children in the visitors' book was so cute. Glad you had another good stay. Hope you choose Eric House again in the future. Dawn and Steve Property Owner

• "This was our second stay in this fabulous house."

  Extremely well equipped and very clean. Nice welcome back gift and card left for us. Across the road from a charming pub where the locals and hosts made us feel very welcome. This house lacked nothing and we will definitely be back next year! Weather slightly disappointing after the heatwave a couple of weeks earlier, but didn't stop us walking along the beach every day. So relaxing, I wish we could live here! Thank you.

  You are more than welcome to return again, Adrienne, and found that we have maintained the standards at Eric House. Wish we could guarantee the weather but sadly not. Property Owner

• "An excellent base for our family get-together and to meet up with friends from when we lived in the area 30 years ago."

  Eric House provided EVERYTHING that we needed. It was very comfortable, clean and well-appointed in all areas.....from kitchen/diner through outdoor seating, indoor lounge/TV room, library room and the three roomy bedrooms. Cannot recommend highly enough. We had a superb week.

  Late reply, but thank you for your feedback. We are glad that you found Eric House comfortable and clean, and managed to catch up with friends during your stay. Perhaps you need to catch up again sooner so we may see you again. ;) Kind regards Steve and Dawn Property Owner

• "The house is an excellent base for exploring this part of Yorkshire, very well-equipped, good temperature control (but see below), clean and comfortable."

  Good-sized kitchen/dining area and spacious lounge, while the snug is a nice bonus. Bedrooms decent-size with comfy beds. Bathrooms also roomy. There is good access to Filey and/or Scarborough for things like shopping and entertainments. We arrived in a heatwave, so the aircon was extremely welcome, but we later proved that having multiple sources of heating/hot water was also a good idea when the immersion failed. We were able to turn on the boiler instead. Thanks to Steve (owner) for his help in sorting this out. A couple of small points: for young children (i) a stairgate would be handy, and (ii) the single bed's design is potentially hazardous for a child--travel cot (available) would be a better choice. All in all, a nice house that worked well for 4 adults a 3-yr old and a baby. Many thanks!

• "Although brief, we greatly enjoyed our stay at Eric House."

  Everywhere was spotless and the provision of milk and tea/coffee facilities by the owners was much appreciated. It's a lovely place and the interest provided at the back by the birds and squirrel was most entertaining. The house itself has an excellent layout across the rooms and it is in very good condition. Our only concern was the road outside which carries so much traffic and perhaps your website should mention that the house is located next to a very busy road. We'd certainly recommend Sykes for bookings and we feel that Eric House is a lovely place to stay!!

• "Yet another winner from Sykes Cottages."

  If I could have marked Eric House with an 11, I would have done !. It is a cozy, comfy detached house, outside Filey. It is walkable to the beach via a well established hedgerow walk in about 45 minutes, but we learned to park up in a layby opposite the windmill ( just by Filey's 30 MPH sign) that saved us 20 minutes each day. Filey is old fashioned, and has many green spaces and park benches, and has an air of Georgian gentility. Our excursions were to Pickering ( steam train ), visits to Scarborough, where we found free parking for three hours by the harbour, and many steps and walkways up the hill to St Mary's church, where Anne Bronte's grave can be found ( street parking for two hours there ) A trip to Bridlington turned out to be a bit of a let down, though. Back to the house - the parking area was big enough to drive in, turn around and drive out, but I will say the road was busier than I expected. I especially liked the chimes of the church bell throughout the night, and the dawn chorus from the rookery in a nearby copse. Country sounds that add to a country cottage holiday. Only thing missing was a wall clock in the lounge. Have to mention a nearby pub called The Piebald , famous from ' Four in a Bed' some years ago. Famous for the 52 types of pie available. Did not make it this trip, so I will drool over that menu until next time !

  Lovely touch of essentials in the property for our arrival.

  Thank you for your feedback. We are glad that you found the house clean and cosy and had a good holiday. The area is beautiful but we may be a bit biased too :). kind regards Steve and Dawn Property Owner

• "This was a lovely cottage."

  I could have moved in and lived here! Everywhere was spotlessly clean, all the appliances worked, and there was enough crockery, utensils and cook ware for whatever you wanted to do. The little garden was a delight and we saw more goldfinches in one day than I have seen in the rest of my life! Sat in the conservatory watching them every evening while I waited for dinner to cook. Owner was friendly and helpful. We texted and he always replied quickly. Nice courtyard for parking. What more can I say? I would go back tomorrow!

• "We have had the most wonderful stay at Eric House."

  The property is beautifully presented throughout and everything we could have wished for was provided. We were so lucky to have brilliant weather which allowed us to sit outside and watch the different types of birds coming to feed. All 3 of us were sad to leave and we are hoping to return later this year if availability allows. Thank you so much to the owners of Eric House for making us feel so welcome and comfortable.

  We are very pleased that you had a wonderful stay, and managed the good weather as a plus. There has always been a fantastic selection of garden birds and I love to watch them too. We hope you do manage to come back later in the year. You would be most welcome. kind regards Steve and Dawn Property Owner

• "Eric House was easy to find and was warm and welcoming when we arrived."

  Heating easy to adjust. We had a very comfortable short stay, as there were on 3 of us. Easy access to Filey and the coast. A shame that we did not have time to try out the local pub just across the road - maybe next time. Our only criticism is the lack of crockery and the size of the cups/mugs. There are only 2 larger mugs and the rest are small. We ended up buying another from a charity shop. There is a dishwasher and we did manage, but if there had been 5 adults, the lack of crockery means you would need to wash up after every meal. Extra plates etc would make a massive difference to the whole experience.

  Thank you for your feedback, Pauline. We are glad that you had a good stay and found the house warm and welcoming. We have put in some larger mugs and additional crockery as you have suggested. kind regards Dawn and Steve Property Owner

  Spacious, clean, warm and with everything you need. The house is lovely. Games books and some great photographs displayed on the walls. We used it as a base and went to so many places close by. Filey, Scarborough, Bridlington, Whitby and Hull.

• "The listing was extremely accurate and we thoroughly enjoyed our stay."

  All of the basic essentials were there, the property was lovely and clean, very spacious and there was ample parking. The outdoor area was beautiful and well maintained. We really have nothing negative to say. It took us 5 minutes to drive to the beach and there were supermarkets locally. We were given all of the relevant information in ample time. We would absolutely stay again, thank you
