What our customers say about their holidays

  • Ruth - Verified booking

    Ust as lovely as it looks in the pictures!

    Luxurious cottage in stunning village with incredible views! Thankyou for allowing us to stay, even though only 2 nights were available in this peak time. Garden secure & beautiful. Cottage excellent standard, lovely waterfall shower, clean & tidy. Had couple of maintenance things to report but Sykes / caretakers were quick to respond, so assume was sorted for the next people? These were that the wooden door covering the fridge door was hanging off and dangerous ( very heavy and ready to fall from a height). No tools available or we could have unscrewed the remaining hinge and at least made it safe. The kettle had a slow leak so sat in a puddle of water! Only other comment is that there were a few cobwebs ( handfuls when plugging things in!) and the towels were tiny/ thin. Have since visited 2 more Sykes cottages with thick large fluffy towels which emphasised the contrast. A note about the ‘short’ driveway might alsobe helpful to some - our average 4WD was a squeeze to close the gate, so had to unpack and let the dogs in/out with the gate open. A truck or van would not fit. Shap village very friendly & gorgeous abbey cafe on the high street. Greyhound inn great food again very friendly .Swimming pool was very cold. Nice to explore a different part of the lakes.

  • Kerry - Verified booking

    Beautiful property and garden, clearly the owners have put a lot of work into making it look the business; a lot of modern touches while remaining in keeping with the age of the cottage.

    I loved that there was street parking directly outside, as it made it super easy to unload and load the car, especially with having my two dogs with me. Also loved the tap & hose by the front door for boot cleaning, so handy for muddy walks! The local Co-op shop was hands down the biggest and best stocked Co-op I've ever been to, you can buy all sorts there! And it's only a few mins walk up the road. Some very helpful leaflets for local attractions left in the cottage and also the cottage manual contained a lot of useful info. My only gripe would be (and its only a relatively minor one) is that there are no temperature markings on the electric hob dials or on the toaster temperature dial, so you have to just guess through trial and error what temperature you're setting them at. But all in all, we had a very pleasant stay and would certainly stay again, particularly as Lazonby itself was such a lovely place with very friendly people.

  • Diane - Verified booking

    We had a couple of issues at the time of year we went.

    The first was that bringing the sheep down close to the house meant the house was full of flies. I mean, so many flies :( This can be avoided by not going in the height of summer I guess!) Secondly, the garden is NOT dog-proof. If you have a dog who likes to escape then there are a ton of holes (evidenced by waking up to sheep in the garden!). This meant we had an anxious week worrying our dog would escape into the sheep field and cause issues. In the end, we kept him on a lead all week, but still, not good and much of a worry to my mum. The beds were wonderful, the house itself was lovely, and the location was perfect. I just can't in all conscience give the place a 5 given the flies but most importantly the fact that we booked this place as a dog-friendly venue. I would recommend maybe a non-summer stay... maybe when there are no sheep, and maybe without bringing the dog.

    We had a lovely holiday staying in your property, such a great location to just switch off from everything.

    I have already recommended the house to several of my friends with dogs as it was just the perfect location to walk them straight from the house. We have already spoken about booking again the next time we want to go to the lakes. The cottage was well maintained and has great facilities. A washing machine and dryer is such a bonus, especially after muddy walks. Also I loved the bath and spent several evenings relaxing with a book. We loved the wood-fire. The only down-side was the previous tenants had been smoking inside and the smell was quite strong. Obviously no fault of the owner as the no smoking rules are quite clear, just a shame. I did my best to try and lift the smell by opening all the windows/using air freshener but it will probably require some deep cleaning. Overall a wonderful holiday, we will definitely be back

  • Reginald - Verified booking

    Directions were incorrect - the house was on the right not the left and due to the gates having been repainted was not easily recognisable from the photos.

    Whilst the garden was very pretty, the grass was extremely long which made it difficult to enjoy, and possibly contributed to us being heavily bitten whilst there, very unusual for us (and we live in the countryside normally). There were no instructions for the property such as for bins etc, or how to use anything. There were leaflets for days out, but some very ‘local’ information would also be helpful, such as walking to Shap village too. The property was clean and tidy, and we understand in an old property there would creaky floorboards etc but the main bed in particular was very creaky which I’m sure could be improved. It would also have been helpful to have been prepared for the exceptionally narrow road to the village, as whilst we are familiar with country roads, this is particularly narrow for a small portion.
