• "A beautiful home from home cottage."

  We stayed here for a month, and we can’t recommend it enough! The kitchen is fully equipped, washing machine, dishwasher, fridge freezer and the added bonus of a coffee machine ! Warm and cozy, with the added benefit of a coal fire for those cozy evenings, in a very spacious living room. The large secure garden was perfect for our little dogs, who wanted to play out all the time. Hosts are great and anything you need just a call away. Can’t wait to come back next year for our 3rd visit !

  Thank you so much for your lovely feedback, Property Owner

• "Things that you would expect were non existent."

  Only one bedside cabinet, no toilet roll holder, no drainer on sink. No bin in bathroom. OK only minor things but important normally. Needs updating in bathroom, and sofa and chairs were dirty. On the plus side, spacious cottage and well heated.

  We are sorry you found issues with the above. If you had been in contact with us, we could have rectified this for you. We are not aware that any of the sofas or chairs were dirty & everything is thoroughly checked by the cleaner after each stay. Feedback has been taken on board. Property Owner

• "Lovely property."

  Very clean & cosy. Excellent communication with flexible check in and out times. Lovely little conservatory with great views. Massive negative with a Gardner in the garden from early morning. (Before 9) for most of the day without even any communication from owner. My self and my husband both have health problems after a busy couple of days we had decided this would be a rest and chill day. Breakfast in bed, looking at the garden. and plans to eat lunch in conservatory The reason we had booked for 3 days also. We are quite private and found this very intrusive. Woken by a strimmer and a man right outside the bedroom window. Consequently, we had breakfast with curtains closed and didn't use conservatory. I realise garden maintenance is needed but this should be booked around changeover days, just like cleaning and any other maintenance. We were only staying 3 days, surely the Gardner could have done it the next day when we were checking out.

  I apologise that the gardener was an inconveneice, he comes when the weather is forecast good. i apologise about this. the gardener does come on a weekly basis & cannot always be gaurunteed to be on the change over day of the week. Property Owner

• "Lovely homely accommodation, beautiful setting we really enjoyed our stay and would recommend it."

  There are a couple of bits that could do with some work, the hand rail to the lounge was very loose, hand towel holder loose, only one bedside cabinet in double bedroom other than that it was just wonderful, the patio was great to watch the sunset from.

  The facilities were good, although the single beds were a bit lumpy. Unfortunately for some reason there were only 2 teaspoons! We had to buy some. Overall the cottage was lovely and I would happily recommend it to anyone.

  Thank you for your feedback, sorry about the tea spoons, items can disappear sometimes. Sorry they had not been replaced. Property Owner

• "Our stay was fine and reasonably comfortable."

  Having to go from the kitchen through the lounge to eat at the dining table is a bit of a pain. The only serious issue we had is the toilet seat is very wobbly and could be dangerous. We have stayed at West End House twice and found the owners very helpful and pleasant. Thank them very much

  Thank you for your feedback. I can confirm this issues mentioned have been rectified. I am really sorry to hear you did not raise this to ourselves or Sykes Cottages during your stay, we provide our contact number in the key collection details and Sykes Cottages are contactable 24/7. We would have been more than happy to attend during your stay to make it more comfortable. Property Owner

  Great location for walks; within minutes of leaving the house there was access to public footpaths, that led to great pubs and down into town. The house itself was very comfortable and fulfilled all our needs; the gift of eggs and wine was much appreciated too. The garden was secure and you could always find a spot in the sun or shade throughout the day to enjoy the flowers and relax.

• "We had a nice few days in the cottage which is very nice BUT we were annoyed with Sykes Cottages who gave photos showing the garden."

  You are led to believe that it is the back garden. It is not, it is the front garden. There is no back garden at all. Front garden is by the road with the traffic running by. We note that Sykes cottages dont put that in the photographs. That disappointed us. The cottage itself is faultless and the people that own it were lovely.

  Great location too. Walking distance to three pubs and the village of Thornton. We had a little dog with us and all the pubs were dog friendly. The cottage had a lovely enclosed garden which again is great if you have dogs or children. Lovely garden furniture if it's warm enough to sit out and if it is a bit chilly there is a lovely conservatory that looks out over the garden. We received a lovely email from owners a couple of days before our stay explaining key collection etc which was really useful. Owners also left some goodies in kitchen for us including freshly laid eggs from their chickens, milk, biscuits, bread and a bottle of wine. All yummy and much appreciated.

  It is well equipped with a lovely sized enclosed garden which is brilliant for dog owners. Equally there is a porch to clean the dogs & store muddy boots, which hopefully people will do to keep the Cottage in its lovely state. It is isolated enough to get a quiet good nights sleep & equally positioned for neighbouring towns & motorway networks. The owners always on hand should a problem occur which as a solo female traveller is reassuring. I would definitely recommend & stay again without hesitation.
