    Sykes experience not so excellent. On booking, website not working so telephoned instead and was going to be charged extra for this service until I objected. Also requested clarification of travel instructions and this was eventually ignored. Sykes needs to do a little better. Patrick White.

    We could not have asked for anything else. Our host Claire was really friendly and helpful. I would recommend Yr Hen Efail. Thank you.
