“We had a lovely week here, great cottage with good facilities.”

The village of scalby is very nice with some lovely walks, nice pubs and a village shop. A very good base for visiting Scarborough, Whitby and Bridlington.

“The written directions weren't very accurate but the post code was spot on.”

The cup's weren't very clean so we had to bleach them other than that, very nice.

“Lovely place in a beautiful setting, the views are amazing out the back.”

The beds are very comfortable and fresh, but the the drawers in the right hand bedroom need fixing as the bottom one is broken. However the ground floor has a beautiful wood flooring which would be nice if it were clean. The living room looks like it hasn't been cleaned for sometime, there's loads of muck under the sofas. The windows in the living room didn't open and given the weather conditions it was uncomfortably hot. This is the second time we've stayed in this cottage, and would certainly stay again, it would be nicer if it was clean on arrival

“Dirty and Broken.”

toilet flush broken (reported by previous guests). Reported and very reluctant to do anything, blamed previous guest for "meddling with it". It is BROKEN it JAMS when you try to flush, it has a hole in it, it is dirty. Said would sort it out "first thing". Well "first thing" didn't happen. Shower controller broken (reported by previous guests). Temp controller did not stay in place, rotated so shower got hotter and hotter, risk of scalding. 3 days later shower controller was replaced. But why not fix the toilet at the same time? Black mould in shower cubicle especially on mosaic tiles. Whole cottage is very dirty including plate draining rack, venetian blinds and mirrors. It is not just wear and tear, it is ingrained dirt, this place has not had a proper clean in many months. Website says cottage available from 5pm. Said it would be ready at 4pm. A pity he did not spend the hour fron 4 to 5pm actually cleaning the place. Sykes have gone down in my estimation by continuing to list a property in this state.

“Could be cleaner beds nice and clean we had to wash the drinking glasses and Mugs before use”

“Very basic and very overpriced.”

Kitchen equipment poor. No casserole dishes to put in oven. No basins or jugs no teapot no spatula or big spoon. The oven wasn’t clean. I found large slugs on the kitchen floor on two occasions late at night. The windows downstairs don’t open and there is no fan. Consequently it got very stuffy. The light bulb in the lounge lamp had not been replaced although it had be reported previously. The bed linen and towels were clean and fresh. The bedding and the towels were fine .

“Beautiful cottage in an ideal spot, enclosed bbq area needs gate fixing.”

Close to shops, cafe and pub. Excellent place for walking and also buses to Scarborough and whitby. Only small niggle was the dust in the living room, under the sofas and on the window sill. I will definitely stay here again.

“Value for money, as the saying goes "it does what it says on the tin!”

“Top shelf in fridge broken, also no light in fridge, although it did work.”

clock on wall not working 2 out of a set of three coffee tables had broken legs the dining room blinds wouldn't close maybe only small niggles, but I advised the contact person who said it would be sorted. It wasn't while I was there.

Martin April 2021

“Ideally located in a picutresque part of Scarborough and for exploring the North Yorkshire countryside and coast.”

The cottage was comfortable and warm with a reasonably well equipted kitchen. General clenliness of the property was poor, dusty, cobwebs, and a bit grubby in most rooms. The fridge is rather old but works fine and the same goes for the microwave. We definetly would consider it again but think it was relatively overpriced for the quality of the cottage.

“Given the current pandemic the property wasn't clean it needed to be better especially as extra time was allowed before check-in.”

- Dorothy, August 2020
Louise July 2020

“The cottage was spacious and parking was easy.”

There was plenty of room to store our belongings. In general the cottage was a good standard but some updating is needed. A bathroom cabinet and a full length mirror are needed.

- Louise, July 2020
Joanne September 2019

“We had a lovely time staying in this cottage.”

Perfect location especially if you have a dog. Woke up to deer in the back garden! Excellent for places to go and nearby coastal towns and moors. Would definitely recommend. Cottage comfortable with everything you need.

David July 2018

“Nice enough accommodation but lacking homeliness (and loo roll!”

After a long drive to get there it would have been good to have had just one roll..) Strong smell of damp plaster throughout. Otherwise a functional place to stay for a short break.

Loved the fact dogs allowed. Liked the garden area for the dog and the field out the back was great. The use of a washing machine and dryer was handy after muddy walks. A great place to stay.
