“We thoroughly enjoyed our holiday.”

The cottage was very comfortable , clean and well equipped. We only had one complaint and that was the shower, for some reason the water did not run hot enough to complete your shower . You had to have a quick shower before it ran cold and if you were washing your hair a super quick shower , at record speed

“We had travelled from the Midlands with no problems following the Sat Nav to Slieghts.”

But got totally lost when in Sleights, I think you may have to look at their post code and place a big clear sign on entry of this private lane by Echo Bridge, which we passed a few times. The locals were very friendly. We visited The Salmon Leap B&B for a few drinks when passing, and highly recommend their homemade steak pie. Lovely area and lots of places to visit.
Mr Brown August 2020

“Fantastic location and easy access to local amenities and only a short drive to other locations for a visit.”

Cottage was excellent and the layout and decor was amazing. First holiday in this part of the world and will definitely be back.
Mrs Pegley July 2020

“The kitchen area was too dark should have velux windows in the roof to allow for extra light”
Mr Rodgers March 2020

“Lovely setting , beautiful & very well appointed cottage .”

We would love to return . Andrew , Ann & Maisie the dog .

“Fantastic property”

Beautifully modern, immaculately clean and warm converted stable with everything you need for a really comfortable stay. Near to beaches or moors. Very highly recommended for a lovely peaceful break.
Mr Warrior November 2019

“When I saw the pics of this place I thought it looked beautiful and it was even better in person!”

The little touches are fantastic and it was that good my other half said she wishes she could have moved there. We were there on a cold wet weekend and it was still amazing. Couldn't reccomend more!
Mr Mcdermott November 2019

“The location, comfort and cleanliness of the property was exceptional - great area to tour local villages and coast.”
Mr Hounslow November 2019

“Good location, quiet, warm and clean cottage.”
Mr Morris October 2019

“The only downside to the barn is the poor lighting in the lounge area.”

Also mention could be made of the road access with the large potholes in the unmade road area where care is required. Apart from this we had a very very enjoyable week. The barn was very cosy, clean and well appointed with a very good baker, butchers and fish and chip takeaway/restaurant and Spar shop in the village.
Mr Lough September 2019

“We found the cottage very comfortable .”

My wife and I love the moors and the dales and it is quite likely we would book again in the future .
Mrs Bargh September 2019

“Lovely cottage quiet setting everything you could need for an enjoyable stay will certainly stay there again”
Mr Brown August 2019

“Public right of way at bottom of garden”
Miss Davies August 2019

“What a fabulous barn conversion this is.”

Tasteful decoration and everything you could possibly need in the kitchen! Well equipped bedroom and possibly the best shower I’ve ever seen in the bathroom. Such a peaceful location. Ideal for exploring the area. Train only 10 mins into Whitby. Lots of beautiful countryside to discover. We enjoyed every minute of our holiday and have already booked for next year. Rachel is a brilliant, friendly owner and her little dog, Hugo was a hit with my daughter. Would definitely recommend without doubt.
Mr Mayer August 2019

“This cottage was very disappointing.”

It had absolutely no atmosphere and was not at all homely. A rug in each room would make a good addition to make the place look less like a box. It certainly wasn’t furnished to the high standard as described by Sykes, but was furnished with very basic items from IKEA. The sofa and chair in the living area were extremely hard and uncomfortable as was the mattress which was so soft you could both feel and hear the springs when you moved. The pillows had some kind of inner protector which made it sound like you were sleeping on a packet of crisps. The 2 pull down blinds in the bedroom do not stop the light coming in and as there are lights outside each door it is difficult to get off to sleep. Black out blinds would improve matters. We only had contact with the owner when we arrived and she had to go into the next cottage to borrow their pint of milk. On entering the cottage, we found a packet of Blue Riband biscuits which we thought was a bit mean after reading some previous reviews and compared with other greeting gifts we have received. We also found she had provided just 1 toilet roll. There was no toilet brush which one would have expected, the cold-water tap dripped constantly and the toilet seat moved when sat on. In addition, the grassed area at the rear needed cutting so as to make it usable. The owners mowed the grass on their own private pitch and put course to the front of their house so it would have been nice to have had the small area of grass behind the cottage mowed. In conclusion, this is the first time in 50 years of holidaying that we have been asked to strip the bed before we left!! What on earth do they do between the departing guests leaving at 10am and the arriving guests turning up at 3pm. Judging by the number of cobwebs everywhere, not that much. We will not be returning.
Mr Craig July 2019

“Beautiful cottage beautiful location loved every minute of my holiday will be back again thank you”
Mrs Murray June 2019

“In the write up it states there are velox windows, but not in the west cottage, so the main room is rather dark and needed lights on most of the time, but they are not very bright.”

Also only one toilet roll for the week! On the good side the barn was very comfortable and of high standard and very clean, also the outlook couldn’t have been better.
Mrs Bloss May 2019

“The holiday cottage was the best one we have ever stayed in.”

It met all our expectations and more from the decor, facilities and location. The location was also great for exploring the area. A very comfortable and welcoming stay at Lowdale Barns West. Brilliant and thank you
Mrs Matthams March 2019

“Lovely cottage.”

Warm, cozy and everything you need for a lovely stay near Whitby.
Mr Stones March 2019

“Perfect weekend spent in Lowdale Barn, cosy, comforting and relaxing location.”

Close to all the hidden gems around the moors and transportation is easy. Would highly recommend Lowdale Barns, can’t wait to return☺️
Mrs Andre-hardy January 2019

“Sykes was fantastic both before and after our stay.”

We have 2 dogs but our choices of cottages said 1 well behaved dog. They spoke with the owners and they agreed to 2 small well behaved dogs. Really impressed and the property didn’t disappoint!

“Perfect retreat”

This beautifully furnished, clean and comfortable cottage has been converted from a barn into a fabulous welcome cottage. Part of two cottages, it is a little distance from Sleights, out in the country with sheep surrounding the property, very quiet and private. The owners in the manor house close by, are there for help if needed. Close to Whitby, the sea side and the Moors. The location is really perfect. Thanks for sharing your home.
