  This is feedback for the owner, not the Sykes website.

  We had a few problems. 1) the ensuite shower. I attempte to use once and was either at risk of freezing or being scalded.!! Plus the actual shower cubicle is badly in need of repair. Broken screws resulting in the doors not staying closed and the water flooding into the bathroom.. also the shower is in need of a thorough clean as is the non slip mat!! 2) The front door was a big problem in the extra warm weather . expansion made closure extremely difficult. we literally had to forcibly slam the door to close the door each time we used it, which can be doing neither the door or the surrounding framework any good. 3) The hoover. When we attempted to use it the dirty stale smell was extremely off putting. You ask us to leave the house as we find it, but do not leave usable equipment to do so. 4) I had to descale and clean the kettle but it really needs renewed. Despite the foregoing we enjoyed our holiday, mainly due to the beautiful weather, and the peace and quiet .

  We had a really lovely stay at Stones Throw and the location is brilliant.

  It’s a good size property with a great kitchen stocked with everything you could need and more during your stay. This is the 3rd time we have stayed in the property over the last couple of years. We did feel on our stay this time though that there are some small updates needed as it is showing signs of wear and tear. -All beds desperately need new pillows, we actually bought some from Tesco during our stay. -The headboard in the main bedroom is falling off the wall. - The outside door handle of bedroom 2 is falling off. - The cushions on the sofas smell fusty and the sofas in general could possibly do with an update. - The back yard of the property looks tired, the furniture is broken, and generally looks like it needs a bit of TLC. - The toilet flushers in both toilets are loose and the loo brushes are dirty. All in all a great place to stay just in need of a little update. Many Thanks.

  We had the most amazing stay at Revilo Lookout 24-26 Jan to celebrate our friend’s 50th birthday. We traveled during storm Eowyn which was gale for winds but it didn’t spoil our trip. On arrival everything outside was secured which I was pleased about. We were welcomed with a hamper which was packed full of treats for our stay and a lovely bottle of red wine and Prosecco. The fridge had milk, butter, cheese and fresh orange juice in which was such a lovely touch which makes all the difference. The accommodation was beautiful, very well kept and immaculately clean. We made use of the hot tub on the Saturday once the storm had passed and the binoculars and telescope came in handy for stargazing at night with a clear sky. We had a wonderful weekend just laughing and catching up, we thoroughly enjoyed it.

  Despite the lesser spotted sun, we have all enjoyed a family holiday in this lovely villa with such stunning views. Our 18-month old and 4 year old have loved watching the birds, boats, horses and train-spotting as well as treasure hunting and paddling at the beach. We’ve had a great time visiting Warkworth Castle, Alnwick Gardens (brilliant fun in the water features!), Lilidorei, Northumberland Zoo and White House Farm in Morpeth, with a fabulous potting barn, bird show, handling sessions, soft play and so much more. Our favourite meal was at The Whittling House in Alnmouth. Thank you for such a well presented and equipped villa with comfortable beds and immaculately clean. We really hope to return.

  This was our second stay here.

  The house is perfect for our family. Plenty of space and a second bathroom is great! The new television was a great addition amazing picture and we enjoyed the fact we could stream things. Our dogs are always happy here with the enclosed garden and close proximity to the beach. Thank you for the wind breaks in the outside shed, ours broke but we didn’t have to buy new as there were two to borrow. The only one suggestion I would have is new pillows as they are a bit flat but that’s a small thing. I think it is great value for money and we have already booked to come back next year!
