    What our customers say about their holidays

    • Melvyn - Verified booking

      Keepers Cottage is a lovely quirky cottage set on the hillside near Nenthead.

      The views from the sun room are wonderful during the day with copious amounts of birds visiting the well stocked bird feeders right outside of the window. You will also see a red squirrel visiting the feeders as well as a woodpecker. The sheep on the hillside in front of you are fun to watch as well as the rabbits. The sunsets at night are also gorgeous and it’s hard to tear yourself away from the peace and tranquility of such a lovely place. We loved our time at Keepers and would highly recommend it. The hosts are so friendly and helpful, meeting us on our arrival and showing us around. We were also welcomed with homemade scones and free range eggs, Yummy! We must say the hosts were the most friendliest people we have encountered on our stays within the 30 plus cottages we have holidayed in. The Pennies are an outstanding source of beauty with quaint little villages scattered around, well worth a visit. We enjoyed visits to Barnard Castle, Hexham and Carlisle. Alston have a lovely railway which meanders through the countryside. Lots of things to see and do with plenty of lovely walks. We would highly recommend staying here and visiting the beautiful areas of the North. You won’t meet more friendlier people than the Northerners!

      "Finders keepers" Well what a lovely homely inviting cottage this is.

      My husband and i knew from the moment we arrived that we were going to enjoy our stay here. On arrival we were met by the owners Mark and Jo and given a tour of the cottage, from the conservatory the views are amazing especially watching birds too and frowing to the the feeders is very entertaining. Jo left us eggs from their chickens, and delicious home made scones that went down a treat with our first cup of tea. After spending days out and about we looked forward to returning to the peace tranquility, and the views that this cottage offers. The bed was very comfortable, and we found the layout and facilities of the cottage worked very well for us. Mark and Jo are very welcoming, never intrusive, and happy to share recommendations of things to see and do, also providing many leaflets of attractions for you discover. Thank you for sharing your lovely cottage, we would recommend this place to anyone seeking beautiful surroundings, with lots of places to visit within a short drive, and we would love to return in the near future. Best wishes Sandie & Roger

      When we stayed here there was a ladie underneath us, and omg did she have problems!

      All she done was bang the doors all night long and we never got any sleep. We had enough so we left early and as we was packing our cars she thrown a pair of her knickers at us, and omg we was shocked. We did not feel it was safe as she clearly had issues. Tony and Susan offered another week end stay for free as a gesture of goodwill, which was so lovely of them. We have just came back from staying there again and had a peaceful chilled stay. Massive thank you to them. We loved it there and we will be going again well long as that unhindge women is not there again haaaa. Sorry I no she won't be lol but we will be. If you want to go anywhere with beautiful views walks and amazing I would definitely recommend staying here. Thank you again xx

    • Lyndsey - Verified booking

      The cottage was fantastic it was warm and cosy and so clean, the people were very friendly and even though they lived on the property were happy to leave you to your privacy or have a friendly chat if you wanted.

      However the customer service and helpfulness shown by the sykes team was disgraceful, I had emailed 6 times, months before our holiday with a number of queries and they were ignored until I got one rather rude reply basically saying either go and don't have the things i queried (which i found out you had misinformed me about and the couple running the cottage said were never an issue anyway!!) or cancel and lose yr money! There was no sorry we have ignored you or how can we help correct this or even sorry you have concerns? Just a blunt either go or cancel no refund reply!! Needless to say we won't be booking through Sykes again and have advised others of this before they consider your site if at all.

    • Confirmed Guest - Verified booking

      Firstly perfect setting for a rural retreat. Absolutely fantastic view, it was nice after the last few years to sit and just look into the distance and relax. On the clear night the stars were amazing. The accommodation was finished to a very high standard and equipped with everything you could need for a weeks stay, including jigsaws which my husband really enjoyed. The bed was comfortable and the shower was exceptional. The contents of the welcome basket well received. Benjamin the border collie really enjoyed himself, though I think the proximity of the sheep gave him pause for thought. He definitely enjoyed the garden. Could not fault any aspect would definitely book again.
