  • "We had a great week in EY staying at Thames Cottage."

    The cottage is pretty much as billed and what you get is reflected in the price. The location in Roos is ideal, such a lovely village with great pubs and a fab deli. Dog walks on the doorstep too. The owner was really helpful and amenable to any requests we had. However, we’d have appreciated if the garden grass had been cut, would have been easier with dogs and mucky paws

  • "The Cottage is well appointed with everything the visitor could need."

    The Owner lives next door and called round to make us very welcome. The Village has a great pub the "Roos Arms" with lots going on. Also an excellent butchers and baker. Some really good dog walks around the village and very close to Mappleton and Tunstall beaches.

  • "In need of a deep clean through out ."

    I did spend three hours making the house habitable using the un opened array of cleaning products under the sink. We brought the lack of cleanliness to the 'owner 'Jaimie s attention after being at the property for less than half an hour ,who apologised profusely he explained he d had a family crisis and had not been able to do a thorough clean , we both felt sorry for him after he had explained the family crisis to us . He offered to pay for a meal or a free weekend stay , If we did not leave . We felt he needed a break so agreed to stay . He agreed the state of the cottage was unacceptable and it needed a deep clean . I got up at six the next morning and did a deep clean which took three hours. The water in the mop bucket was BLACK that was two buckets , both BLACK water full of grit and black dog hair. But it smelt much fresher. The television was not working on the Sunday , my husband asked Jaimie to come round, he only lives next door, when he knelt down to check the Ariel he said' oh my my god its filthy , I am so sorry '.. We made the best of it ,kept French door open when we were in the cottage to let fresh air circulate .It was worse on a morning when the doors had been shut all night , that horrible smell of musty un fresh , doggy smell coming from the sofas , which I did not clean as they are fabric and needed steam cleaning .We used a large throw I brought from home in case it was chilly on an evening , to cover the tartan sofa and our dogs clean beach towel for the cream sofa . We stayed five days instead of seven the rubbish bins were left under the kitchen window full , this attracted flies . I had offered to put them out but Jaimie had said no he would do it .He did not. This cottage is in a lovely location and we would have returned if the issues I raised with Sykes cottages had been rectified IE a token refund the price of a meal or free weekend Jaimie had offered . But these were just words and as Sykes complaints department manager kept REPEATING to me WE ARE JUST A BOOKING AGENT , YOUR ISSUE IS WITH THE OWNER , sooooooo If you dont mind doing a self clean before you start unpacking be Jaimies guest.

  • "Lovely quiet location."

    No welcome pack as stated but the owner’s son who lives next door (not intrusive) kindly got some coffee and milk for us. Only essential provided is a toilet roll so you’ll need to take kitchen roll etc with you. Also take a torch as there is no street lighting and it’s pitch black at night. Parking is just across the road from the cottage and the back garden is a good size, ideal for pets.The cottage is within easy reach of Withernsea where there are supermarkets, and the local beaches are lovely. Our dogs , and us, had a great time.

  • "A lovely cottage in a peaceful location."

    Located close to a couple of pubs one with good food and friendly service the other friendly staff. Butchers and bakers and local shop all close by. Nice are for a day g walk and also 10 min drive to Withernsea which was a fantastic beach with a great stretch for the dogs. The cottage was a little dated and the oven and extractor were not particularly clean. There was limited cleaning products. Bed was comfy and the host lived next door and was really helpful. Was some milk provided on arrival and also tea, coffee and sugar which was a nice touch.
