“I contacted Hayley on arrival as we couldn’t access the key and she text me back 3 hours later!”

Not great when you have 2 small children. We did manage to access it ourselves but you would think that the contact would be available around check in time in case of any issues. ...

Not great when you have 2 small children. We did manage to access it ourselves but you would think that the contact would be available around check in time in case of any issues. Lots of things that were mentioned in the welcome book were not available such as salt and pepper it did say there would be single use packets available. Also there is no mention of how busy that road is in front of the property it made us very nervous with 2 small children. And it was extremely noisy The information in what to do with the bedding and towels was contradictory in each bedroom and in the welcome book. Some said in the bag provided other said the bath ( for the towels) We had a lovely stay despite this.

Mrs Sissons December 2020

“A lovely cosy house in a lovely little village.”

We were only there for two nights and left the cottage only once as the children loved popping in and out of the hottub :)

Mrs Hargreaves October 2020

“Beautiful cottage with lovely comfy beds and great facilities , we really enjoyed our stay and will most definitely book the cottage again.”

- Mrs Hargreaves, October 2020
Mrs Blades October 2020

“Lovely cottage would recommend no more than 6 though as 8 people would be a bit much.”

Well equipped, the only thing I would say is the hot tub is a little small

Mrs Kirk-scrivener September 2020

“A beautiful property.”

A fantastic stay and with all the stress of coronavirus, Sykes cottages made our booking feel secure and dealt with changing the dates because of lock down in an extremely efficient manner. I was very impressed.

Mrs Whitrick September 2020

“Absolutely gorgeous.”

Set in a beautiful village

Mrs Thomas August 2020

“The hot tub wasn’t very hot on some of the days l phoned the number given and let 2 messages but nobody got back to me to say they had received the message.”

The house could do with a few more serving dishes and another shower in the bathroom and a few more outside chairs. It was very comfortable and quirky and we had a lovely stay, thank you.

Mr Hall August 2020

“Bigger than expected, comfy, floor a little too slippy probs due to cleanliness.”

Low door signs required, few bumps to the head! Haha

Mr Hall August 2020

“The cottage was beautiful and as described, we arrived and checked in no bother.”

The hob we couldnt get to work but worked around that. It would, in my opinion, be better if there was another shower at the cottage. The large bathroom could easily house a new shower unit as the smaller bathroom where the existing shower is, the room is very small and has a low ceiling.

Miss Stewart December 2019

“The house is gorgeous, everything was available when we arrived!”

our family stayed over Christmas week and we wish we had extended our stay a few more days as it was just so nice! kids and adults all loved the hot tub! was so nice to have the washing facilities there too as we managed to come home with no washing! Bonus. Only thing we would have changed was maybe a few more seats at the dining table as we did struggle on christmas day to fit everyone around it! But we have already booked a smaller one of the cottages for a stay for a few of us as we enjoyed it that much :)

Mrs Quinn October 2019

“This was an amazing 2 night break for my daughter in laws 30th birthday.”

The cottage was amazing. It could not have been any better. Everything was great quality from the most comfortable beds we have ever slept in. To the great quality food in the welcome pack. It was immaculately clean & the hot tub was amazing. I really hope we get to use the house again soon.

The surrounding area is nice and the local pub was very welcoming (great food) We have a brilliant time and made full use of the hot tub. We will definitely be returning.

Mrs Maloney December 2018

“The cottage was lovely and decorated really nice with lots of home comforts The fourth bedroom was extremely small The bathrooms could benefit from working locks and it would be better with another shower in the large bathroom.”

The hot tub was lovely and very relaxing The location was fab and although only one parking space at the cottage parking was never an issue at any time. The host was great and we had lovely texts

- Mrs Maloney, December 2018
Mrs Purdy November 2018

Mrs Dent September 2018

“Proximity to a main road needs to be confirmed in the property details.”

Advertised DVD wasn't there but one was provided on Sunday but with the wrong cable. Shower room tiny space, claustrophobic. Bath dirty. Bedroom TV didn't work. Need to stress low ceilings more in the property details. 'Welcome pack' was not as photographed on the property details.

- Mrs Dent, September 2018
Mr Dilworth August 2018

“Great Holiday, cottage was as described ,clean tidy and just as advertised !”

Thank you

- Mr Dilworth, August 2018
Mr Hill August 2018

“We stayed in this beautiful cottage for a week & could easily have stayed longer!”

So much to do in Yorkshire & the cottage provided us with a cosy base to return to. We made some wonderful memories & we plan on returning.

Mrs Crayden-reed July 2018

St Edmunds Cottages

Nestled in the peaceful village of Crakehall in the lower Yorkshire Dales, these cottages offer a serene destination for a relaxing break. From the outside, these pretty properties are aesthetically pleasing with stone frontages, window frames painted a tasteful mint green, and well-kept gardens with views over Bedale Beck. Inside, the cottages are a well-balanced mix of contemporary design and period features, with modern kitchens and bathrooms intermingling with exposed beams and original windows. The décor is neutral throughout with elegant splashes of colour complementing certain rooms. Despite the rural location, the properties are well connected with each offering WiFi and top-of-the-range Smart TVs. The village of Crakehall is regarded by many as one of the prettiest in the Yorkshire Dales, featuring a 5-acre green surrounded by Sycamore and lime trees, populated by stone-built cottages, some of which dating back as far as the 1600’s. It is split into two by a tributary of the River Swale, Bedale Beck, forming Little Crakehall and Great Crakehall. The complex of holiday cottages and their gardens overlook both the bridge and the beck, as well as the A684 road, which provides part of the Tour de Yorkshire route. The village is close to the market town of Bedale with its selection of shops and pubs, as well as museum and weekly market. If walking is more your thing there are plenty of picturesque walking routes in the vicinity, especially in the beautiful valleys of the Yorkshire Dales.
