Reviews
An absolutely fantastic cottage and most definitely the cleanest and well furnished holiday cottage we have ever stayed in. The overall cleanliness of this property is a credit to the owners. We have booked to stay again. A definite 10/10 from us.
Just wonderful! We took my parents for a couple of nights getaway as my mum was facing major surgery the following week. The Cottage was beautiful and perfect for the five of us with sleeping arrangements. The owners messaged us and left us a lovely hamper on the dining table. We will definitely return and offer a huge thank you to Sykes Cottages and the Owners for a hassle free and very comfortable trip.
This place is furnished and decorated to a beautiful standard, linen and towels are of high quality and the small touches like wine, milk and chocolates upon arrival make your welcome that much warmer. What I would advise is to book early to avoid disappointment as I lost a few dates due to dallying and I realised the demand for this place is high and soon books up.
Upon arrival the cottage was above and beyond or expectations . The cottage had everything that we required , Thank you for the welcome pack that we received upon arrival this was a lovely touch and very welcoming . The surrounding area is very friendly and close to the local shops and we enjoyed our walks around the town. we are now looking forward to our next stay thank you .
If your looking for the perfect place to stay you can’t go past this beautiful cottage. It feels like home from the moment you arrive with everything you could possibly need for your stay. The beds are comfortable and everything has recently been updated. It’s position in the village is ideal with everything within easy walking distance and you can’t go wrong with a great fish and chip shop just up the road. The owners made us feel very welcome with a lovely Christmas tree in the open plan lounge and dining area and the fireplace was lovely and cosy on the cold winter nights. We will definitely be back and recommending this cottage to our friends. Thank you so much to the owners for making our stay in Pickering so enjoyable.
