“I have stayed in many holiday cottages but this one is the worst by far.”
The photo's made it look lovely: I do like quirky, but this is a very unpleasant place, it is so neglected and could do with a good clean. It's badly in need of some TLC. I did not cook in the kitchen as it was not hygienic; the wooden worktops need a good scrub, they are filthy and stained. The sofa and chair has seen better days.....so uncomfortable and unsupportive, it needs to go on the tip! The throw on the sofa was filthy and smelled strongly of dog. I could go on and on about this ...

I could go on and on about this cottage, but enough said. I came home early as I could not face another evening and night in that place. I love Whitby itself and will be back but obviously not in Inglenook, I can get a much better place to stay in for the price I paid here or even less. Sykes Holidays have disappointed me greatly in promoting such a property at the price I paid. I feel I have been robbed. I will be much more careful in future when I am choosing a holiday home. I hesitated over whether to leave an honest review, but decided that I owe it to those who look on these sights and expect the reviews to be a true reflection of what to expect. I am so sorry to do this Judith, but I hope you will take this on board as Inglenook could be a lovely little cottage with some time and money spent on it.
I’m sorry you didn’t enjoy your stay at Inglenook. I wish you had contacted me when you arrived rather than me finding out from your review after you left the property.
Inglenook is unique and is how it is by design, it isn’t a vanilla holiday let. I do apologise, the throw should have been replaced. I acknowledge your comments on the sofa and we will review. The worktop is oak and is disinfected at each change over, it is also sanded and oiled regularly.
