• "A really pleasant place to stay very clean and tidy."

  My only concern was the bathroom floor was very spongy to say the least other than that it was a very peaceful and comfortable place to stay

• "A lovely cottage which was spotlessly clean."

  Great to have towels ect to clean dogs as weather was atrocious. Only thing I would suggest that it could have enclosed garden which would be good in the summer as you could leave door open for dogs

  Hi Linda, Thank you for your lovely review! We're delighted to hear you enjoyed the cottage and found it spotlessly clean. It's great to know the towels and other items for the dogs came in handy, especially with the challenging weather. We truly appreciate your suggestion about having an enclosed garden. This is something we plan on doing in the near future to make stays even more enjoyable for our guests and their furry friends. We look forward to welcoming you and your dogs back again soon! Best wishes, Jacki and The Team at The Grange Holidays Property Owner

• "The holiday cottage was nice and clean but attention needed to some aspects: Coffe Machine not working properly and leaked badly Fridge freezer badly needs defrosting, drawers in freezer difficult to open due to build up of ice Bathroom door did not lock Would not recommend Sykes Cottages due to inaccuracy of listing (ie enclosed garden), also very difficult to speak to anyone and didn’t respond to emails."

  Only made verbal contact when the owner of the cottage got involved

  Dear Phillip, Thank you for your review and for bringing these issues to our attention. We're glad to hear that you found the holiday cottage nice and clean, but we're sorry to learn about the problems you experienced during your stay. If we had been informed about the bathroom door not locking and the coffee machine leaking, we would have taken steps to rectify these issues promptly. Regarding the fridge freezer, it is defrosted periodically by housekeeping, and we've made them aware of the situation. We appreciate your feedback, as guest experiences are very important to us. We also apologise for any confusion regarding the listing of the enclosed garden space. Your comfort and satisfaction are our priorities, and we value your comments.

• "Firstly, the main complaint we had was the no secure garden for our 3 dogs."

  The cottage next to us did have a fenced off garden. We were informed by the maintainer that all the cottages are being given Fenced off gardens gradually as we were not the only people to complain. The electric oven didn't work, so we had a new one two days before leaving. So prior to that we were using the microwave or going to the local pub, that was brilliant food. There was no vacuum, broom/mop in the cottage so it was difficult to keep the floor clean . We don't like to leave any property with mess. My husband did get a vacuum from the laundry room (wasn't sure if that was correct).The area wasn't ideal for dogs, we only found one good beech for them to have a good run around.

  Dear Karyn, Thank you for sharing your feedback with us. We appreciate your comments and apologise for the inconveniences you experienced during your stay. We understand your concern regarding the lack of a secure garden for your dogs. We're in the process of gradually installing fenced-off gardens for all the cottages, and we regret that this wasn't completed for your stay. We apologise for any inconvenience this caused and appreciate your understanding. We are also sorry to hear about the issue with the electric oven and are glad we could replace it before your departure. We recognise the inconvenience it caused during your stay, and we're grateful for your patience. Regarding cleaning supplies, we apologise for the oversight. We aim to provide all necessary cleaning equipment for our guests' comfort and convenience, and we've addressed this with our housekeeping team. It's perfectly fine that your husband retrieved a vacuum from the laundry room, but we are looking into ensuring all items needed are readily available in each cottage. We understand that finding suitable areas for your dogs to run and play was challenging, and we appreciate your feedback on this. We strive to provide a welcoming environment for all guests, including their pets, and will consider this in our ongoing efforts to improve our offerings. Thank you again for your valuable feedback. We hope you had some enjoyable moments during your stay and that you'll consider returning in the future once our improvements are fully implemented.

• "The only reason I scored a nine for comfort was that I did bump my head a couple of times upstairs on the low beams."

  I am six foot tall so this maybe more of a problem to someone taller.

We apologise for the inconvenience caused by the low beams upstairs, especially for taller guests like yourself. We appreciate your understanding and honesty in your review.
