This cottage was the best equipped cottage we have used in many years.. It had everything we needed and also we were told where supplies were kept so that if anything ran out we could replenish them. There was also a very welcome basket of essentials provided so a cuppa was available without even unpacking the car! The owner was friendly and lives on site. She gave us some local information since all leaflets had been removed from the property due to the pandemic and told us to ring her mobile if we needed anything or information. We hope to return to this property again.

I booked the cottage on the recommendation of your admin on "CHAT".. I asked for a cottage with a kingsized bed and 2 bathrooms. Horseshoe Cottage, near Wigton ref. 921599 was offered to me. I read the description on the website and although the heading said TWO bathrooms the blurb only mentioned one, so I phoned to clarify. I was assured that there were TWO bathrooms so I booked the cottage. When we arrived we discovered that there was only ONE bathroom and more importantly only ONE toilet. I asked for two as we need two for medical reasons! I immediately phoned Sykes office and was assured that the matter would be looked into and I would be kept informed! I learned later from the cottage owner that she had been contacted by Sykes and was blamed for giving Sykes wrong information! I was sent an email with a complaints reference number but other than that I have had no contact from your company. During the holiday, a few days after I had complained I checked the description again on the website and even then it had NOT been amended and was still advertised as having TWO bathrooms. And amazingly (or perhaps not) it is still advertised as having 2 bathrooms now 19:17 on 05/09/2019. We will have been home for one week tomorrow. I am not at all satisfied with the service you provide, My gradings are all connected with this issue. The cottage itself was comfortable but the problems and discomfort caused by having to queue for the toilet canceled this out for us. The facilities were not as advertised ie only one bathroom not two, so this also accounted for my low rating. However, if someone was to rent it and only require the one bathroom the place would be ideal with no problems.

The cottage was lovely the owners very thoughtful as all the basics, which on previous bookings at other lets we had had to provide, were there a welcome pack of milk ,tea ,coffee and sugar but also salt and pepper, down to dish washer tabs and de-icer for your car windscreen if needed.. The cottage was really well provisioned lovely location and the upside down nature gave beautiful access to the views. Great place to use as a base for both the lakes, further north and into Scotland, would recommend the cottage as would its regular visitors listed in the comment book.

We had an amazing time at Horseshoe Cottage during Christmas week. The cottage was trimmed up for Christmas and this made our stay all the more special. The owner was very helpful and went the extra mile to make our stay more enjoyable. Would definitely go again.

The cottage is the centre of three holiday cottages in the farm. There were hens, sheepdogs, lambs, sheep and cattle, in a setting straight out of James Herriot. There were beautiful views. The bird activity was mesmerising, with swallows, starlings, goldfinches and even sparrows. It was very quiet, very comfortable and a very reasonable price.
