The house is run down old fashioned and very cold, and smells musty. It was like stepping back in time. We would not recommend this place and felt it feel way short of Sykes normal standard. Believe the reviews.

We use Sykes a fair bit and feel as though we have to write to you due to the very poor state this property is in. The property in general is filthy, run down and in need of a revamp of some drastic kind or even be taken off your website. Do you have a policy standard of lettable properties? Do you visit for checking for what the property advertises? As we use Skyes often do you not have a reputation to keep? We went away looking forward to this break, and we're horrified that this property could actually be let? Outside Scuffs, chip.marks.and generally dirt on the front step, this actually carries right through the property with damp areas, plaster coming off walls and ceiling and big holes. Kitchen bin had no lid, unhygienic. The back yard is a disgrace. Green slippy slimy paving that has never seen a jet wash. 2 drains outside filled with rubbish and lots of cigarettes ends. Inside Filthy stained carpets, smelly old wardrobes that we didnt use. Filthy stained kitchen chairs from 1970 which we didn't sit on. Mould in shower. Limited old utensils and dishes. Doors that don't shut properly. Sofa, filthy stained and rpped and full of rubbish under the cushions.e.g. tissues copper coins etc. All drawers full of junk. All pictures are so old they have damp yellow stains. This is not a quick lick of paint and a bit of DIY and a clean but a serious inspection. You and the owner are making a profit which is not acceptable. I have already raised a complaint. We look forward to your response. Ruth & Johnny

The door handle fell off when closing the door. Both sofas need replacing, We struggled to get out of them. The boiler needed resetting every time it was in use We couldn't get the oven to heat up Glasses ,cups, plates and cutlery had to be washed before use. The main bedroom carpet was badly stained.
