What our customers say about their holidays

  On arrival we were greeted with a foul smell in the kitchen.

  On inspection we discovered a dried spillage that seemed to have been there for some time. We had to clean the fridge before we could put out food away. We also had to clean the cutlery drawer and its contents as it was sticky and greasy. The pans especially the frying pan was dirty with stuck on food. As the keys are stored in a combination key pad we didn’t even know the owners were on site to deal with this issue until we had cleaned up the mess and read the manual. By this time the clean up had taken place. We did send the owners one of the photographs we had taken to show them. We stay with Sykes regularly and this has never happened before. We rang the owners the following day with a heater query as the apartment was cold due to the heaters being on a timer. We mentioned the smell and the spillage and they blamed it on the previous occupants. But the fact that they never checked the kitchen area before we arrived is not the previous occupants fault. This should have been done before we arrived for our stay. The aerial connection on the TV was poor and intermittent so watching a programme from start to finish was impossible. When we messaged the owners for advice they did not respond to help us with a solution.

  We visited Skirden View cottage for a home away from home trip with our dog.

  We often eye up small cottages that have a modern feel, quiet sites and beautiful views, and this location was just the option we needed. We took full advantage of the hot tub facilities in the good weather, despite there being no covering over the hot tub, it was a beautiful view looking over the fields and the animals past the farm. The amenities and welcome hamper were so well thought out, and most items of household goods in the kitchen/living space were available, especially if you have booked a longer stay. We visited lots of the local pubs, especially the local, The Spread Eagle for a few meals. They were very welcoming, had a great variety of theme nights, good food/drink and dog friendly! If you are looking for somewhere to go for nice walks within a 30 minute drive, Bolton Abbey Ruins and Malham Cove (for any of you Harry Potter fans) were well worth the tough walks - make sure to bring walking boots! We would definitely look to come back to this location again, and thank the hosts for an amazing stay. Thank you!

  Just came back from a 2 day break at this Flat .

  "Shorefields" Very clean inside and well furnished. However, slanted ceilings created problems and bashed heads several times. Nice view from Bedroom however, from at least noon to 8pm everyday the loudest drinking area below the bedroom with the most disgusting language and lewd remarks from beer swilling drinkers who had been purchasing booze from the store underneath the flat during all that time. No social distancing and certainly no pub license. Alternative was to sit in the lounge that faced a campsite and constant flow of people to the store, and had no opening window. Absolutely furious that none of this was mentioned in the booking? What is wrong with you people aren't you supposed to go out and check these owners properties. Please refund our money so we can escape to somewhere to recover. Ann & John Ford - We Have been hanging on your phone line for 20 mins so far????

  Didn’t want to leave - a beautiful and spacious apartment with a fabulous view of the sea and amazing sunsets.

  The kitchen is fully equipped and a lovely welcome/starter pack to make you feel at home. We made good use of the cooking facilities. The bedroom is huge - we are used to a king size bed and the room could easily take one. Felt at home from the off and will surely return! There is a coin operated washing machine next to the shop and a meeting place to have drinks and share good times. The site has a friendly feel and everyone waves and says hello. Pat was very helpful/friendly and on hand if you need anything. We visited beautiful little villages close by. You are not far if you want to visit Morcambe or go a bit further to the Lake District but there are lots of walks/coastal paths and places to explore and discover within walking distance. The is another apartment right nextdoor is you have a bigger party. Get booking

  Absolutely fabulous property, without doubt one of the best we have stayed at.

  Clearly a lot of thought has been put in by the owners to ensure the comfort of their guests. Fixtures and fittings were outstanding throughout with top quality on display in every room. The little extras such as the extensive welcome pack, fresh flowers and fluffy bathrobes and slippers provided that touch of luxury which was really appreciated. The views from the ceiling to floor doors were amazing constantly changing with the weather. Hot tub was the icing on the cake and a great way to relax at the end of the day. Cottage is in a fantastic, peaceful location but makes a great base with loads of brilliant visitor attractions within half an hour’s drive. Overall we had a tremendous week’s holiday at Skirden View and would have no hesitation coming back - very highly recommended.
