    What our customers say about their holidays

    • Eleanor - Verified booking

      We were moved to this cottage last minute the evening before our holiday by Sykes who suddenly cancelled our original booking.

      Only 3 alternative options were given, the other 2 being further from the lake district so not suitable. The owner was extremely friendly and helpful over the phone and the location in the centre of town was great, and we were grateful they accepted the last minute booking. It had a large kitchen, was clean and warm and a visitor permit for parking was provided. It worked well as a base for exploring the Lakes and isn't too far from Windermere and Ambleside. Our main issue was that this was not an equivalent cottage to the one we had originally booked (this was entirely Sykes doing and not the owner's who had given accurate details when we checked their listing so please don't hesitate to book this cottage if it meets your requirements). We had booked a 2 bedroom pet friendly cottage that slept 4 adults, with large living room and views, and had made sure this had wifi which my partner needed to be able to work, and also had a washing machine and dishwasher. Unfortunately the cottage we were moved to had none of these and Sykes suggesting this was an equivalent alternative for the same price I feel was very dishonest. My partner ended up having to leave early due to the lack of wifi and phone signal and there was only one bedroom and one bed, which would have been a bit of a squeeze if 4 adults had been coming! We have still had no response/apology or partial refund from Sykes and I would be very hesitant to book with them again after this experience.

    • Allison - Verified booking

      Sykes responded to our requests promptly and efficiently.

      However, there were a number of issues with the property that should be addressed given it is a 4 tick property. The main concern was the cleanliness. The lounge carpet is filthy. I accept it is a rural location but I have photos of the dirt and stains on the carpet. I really do recommend the carpet is cleaned or the flooring is replaced with slate or tile. The house was clean on the first inspection but as I moved furniture and items around it was apparent that it was not given a thorough clean eg underneath the sofa to retrieve toys or breadcrumbs under the marble chopping board. I thought the bathrooms were fantastic and clean. The other niggle was the main kitchen bin was broken so the clip lid was not working and had to be prised open and shut. I called and asked for it to be replaced. It was replaced with a bin with no lid which is equally inappropriate as this would then expose the contents and smell of the bin in the kitchen. I loved the location and the kitchen was well equipped but I do think the cleanliness and replacement of broken items took the polish off the property. Despite the above, my family and I had a wonderful holiday in the lakes and Sykes contributed to making this happen.

    • Martin - Verified booking

      Great location,stunning views.

      Plenty of space although no clothes storage /wardrobe in the twin bedded room for some reason (??). Spotlessly clean (credit to the cleaners), comfortable super king-sized bed too. Needs a few little details to be addressed-e.g. door stop behind front door needs replacing to stop damage to wall (plasterwork was already damaged) and same for the door on to the patio area. Noticed also that the kickboard along units below cooker was actually UNATTACHED and fell off easily-needs securing asap. Would also help to have privacy glass or curtain on the front door, especially at night when lights are on. Information leaflets- located in the understairs cupboard- need updating (some were from 2018!). Some damp stains on ceiling near some of the the Velux windows too which should be dealt with before serious damage to ceilings etc.Just sorting out those little things would make a huge difference and keep the property "fresh".Noted that previous renters have made similar comments but nothing seems to have been done to address identified issues - and at these prices, why not? Needs a little bit of TLC.

    • Kate - Verified booking

      This is a fantastic cottage - newly converted semi-detached barn conversion.

      It was perfect for us as we were grandparents staying with our adult children and 2 small grandchildren. The space was ideal for family with children and had 3 bathrooms and 3 comfortable bedrooms. The outdoor space had exceptional views and an area to enjoy them! There are suggestions for walks leaving from the cottage. The village of Staveley was charming and had a number of eateries, a brand new park for the kids, a brewery and the best gelato we have ever eater at Kimi’s. It was peaceful with no urban light pollution making it perfect for star gazing. We also enjoyed watching shearing activity at the working sheep farm next door. Activities in the Lakes are within east reach and there are plenty of pamphlets at the property with suggestions of things to do in sunny and inclement weather. Thank you to the owners who checked on us to ensure we had everything we needed! Thank you also for fitting us in at short notice when our camping experience with a 3 and a 1 year old went awry in the very wet weather!!!

    • Kimberley - Verified booking

      The property is in a great location to access Kendal for the high street and other facilities.

      However we would recommend accessing from Kendal College as it is easier to get too. When we arrived we were unimpressed there was a pizza in the freezer and the fridge itself was not clean and the owner has no cleaning facilities such as spray and bleach for you to clean in case you need to therefore we had to use washing up liquid. The sink also was dirty and smelled which we had to clean. I would recommend bringing your own bed sheets and duvet cover and pillow as these did not look clean. We enjoyed visiting Lake District and went to Old Man Coniston, Cathedral Cave, Rydal Cave, Aira Force, lots of national trust and many more places. I would recommend to the owner to spend more time cleaning, give cleaning stuff to visitors ie kitchen spray, bleach, make the place more welcoming such as a welcome basket, more mugs for drinks, more clear glasses.
