  House badly needs maintenance and thorough deep clean.

  The floorboards are completely gone to deep holes on the main corridor. Dangerous. Mould on walls, especially in the bedroom with ensuite. Plumbing sounds like it could explode. Bedding stained (duvets and pillows). Lots of random old stuff left in kitchen area. And shed. Upstairs double bed so creaky could break at any point. (And it was only a young slim girl sleeping in it) Garden has many loose paving stones on steep steps and unguarded steep stone drops. Very dangerous if older or children. Electric garden gate not working at all despite your arrival instructions. Outside furniture horrendous and bbq had been used as a fire pit with large half burned logs still there. Most of the saucepans and frying pans do not work on the induction hob. House information pack pointless, as out of date. No info re recycling. Torches provided but not working. Sign in lounge said “logs and kindling” but none there. No welcome pack at all, even toilet rolls. I am appalled Sykes gives this a 4 tick rating. However… the house is in an amazing location with superb walking, pubs, shops etc all close from the front door. And the views from the house are magnificent. And a red squirrel in the garden

  Had a great time the cottage was perfect for our needs.

  Only improvements could be on two issues; sykes information was that we had to leave the cottage at 10 AM on departure day but the owner informed us, by a note, that we had to vacate by 9AM in order to deep clean. Whilst we understand this need, consistency of approach would be appreciated to reduce the slight tension at the end of the holiday about when we were supposed to vacate the premise. The cottage says that waste for recycling was not collected but had to be taken to recycling centres, a minor inconveniencebut whilst we were there we saw that the local authority did collect recycling and wondered why this wasn't done from the cottage (ie if it was a cost issue). Even so I would have preferred to have recycling collected. As it happened we only made one trip to a recycling centre and on the day of the departure, the cleaner, a very pleasant lady called Beth volunteered to dispose of our recycling.

  We had a lovely week at Felldale.

  The pictures on the website did not do the place justice, the views were stunning and the walks really were right from the front door. The beds were comfy and the showers always hot. The access was tight and I was glad my husband was braver than me getting the car up the narrow lane and very thankful we hadn't brought our van as I don't think we would have managed to reach the property. It was a shame the cleaners were only just arriving as our party arrived and luckily the weather was kind enough for our entry into the property to be postponed an hour but this was possibly the reason the place was not as clean as we might have expected. The oven had not been cleaned and I think the main issue with the carpets is that the hoover bag needed replacing. Overall we had a gorgeous stay and I would not hesitate to book again.

  House was really nice, pretty much perfect for what we needed.

  Very clean, warm and comfortable. Great location. Plenty of information to help us on our holiday. The only point which would be good to address is there were a couple of bits in the garden where I felt it wasn't 100% secure for dogs however potentially the recent weather might be the cause of this. The gate leading to where the cars are parked was broken and not lockable and behind the shed, there was a section of the wall which potentially a dog could jump over. It looks like this was attempted to be fixed but I would suggest needs to be made a bit more secure. Other than that it was a very nice stay. Thank you :)

  Beautiful setting for a holiday cottage.

  Felldale has everything you need for a holiday. I actually found the sofas in the front lounge to be very comfortable although a tad challenging to get out off. And as others had said it is a bit worrying at first to see pale carpets in a dog friendly cottage, but this was not an actual issue. I did find the washing machine instructions totally baffling and an idiots guide to how to wash and dry a load would have been greatly appreciated, but that could just be me. All in all a great stay which I totally enjoyed, those views are just amazing. Thank you for letting us stay.
