What our customers say about their holidays

  The photos of the property on Sykes Cottages site make it appear larger than it is.

  There was a sharp broken tile in the kitchen, a door off its hinges up stairs which was just left leaning against the wall, loose bath panel, poorly repaired sofas which looked horrible, the wheelie bins were full upon our arrival meaning we had nowhere to dispose of rubbish, the chairs at the dining table were in a poor state, there were not 2 washing machines - 1 was a tumble dryer which is actually better, the property was full of left food from previous tenants in the cupboards and fridge, the washing machine had lots of hair in it, I got trapped in the side porch as there is no handle on the inside, the fan in the twin room was thick with dust, female sanitary items were left in the bathroom cabinet, the bottom of the fireplace was hanging off, dog food left in a cupboard, medication left in the kitchen drawer along with syringes (without needles). There was a torn sheet on one of the single beds. I had to wash some of the plates before I could use them as they were dirty, the frying pan was sticky with grease and still had remnants of oil in it. One of the security lights outside lit up the downstairs double bedroom making it difficult to sleep, there was the same problem upstairs in the balcony room as there was no curtain at the window. The hand rail on the steps outside was too big to grip and the rail the other side of the gate couldn't be used as it was all splintered. It was surprising that dogs were not allowed on the furniture as it was all already damaged. All in all, the property was not at the standard the photographs showed, in fact some of it was incredibly dangerous, I feel that I have paid far too much for the stay there and would welcome a partial refund. The property was very clean and comfortable but I will not go again.

  Lovely property, overlooking the beach and sea.

  Peaceful and quiet, but equally near enough the amenities etc in Mablethorpe. Great communication from the owners. Equipped well, kitchen items, cleaning materials etc. Just a couple of things I would say need adding....... There wasn't a hairdryer. And there wasn't an "instruction manual" for appliances etc, or local information, such bin days, local doctors, pharmacy etc. We had a lovely week, a family 3 adults and 4 older children (teens)

  Lovely stay clean and very homely, problem with heating resolved straight away, beds comfy, Children loved being able to chill in their own rooms with TV, s few cracks on kitchen and bathroom floor but didn't affect our stay, close to amenities, next to beach, have booked already to return hopefully may have a upstairs loo as plenty of room for one, would recommend to anyone

  Lovely place to stay, the garden was perfect for our little dog, really safe and enclosed.

  Really close to the beach for access to dog walking. We loved the little treats left for both us and the dog. Leaving a bowl of fresh fruit was excellent, better than cake or processed food as I have a medical condition that means I can't eat them. So being left fruit was really special as most places don't do that. We will be booking again. Thank you.
