Sykes Lodge Reviews

Absolutely brilliant house and so well equipped!
Elaine
Fabulous place to stay we have had such a good week. The Lodge is amazing with plenty of room, well equipped and really comfy beds and bedding. Michael was amazing and was quick to help us with any issues. Thank you
Andrew
We spent October week in this fantastic house. Good communication with the owners from the start till the end of the holiday. The rooms were all unique and of a good size. We spent most of our time in the kitchen which was spacious and well laid out. A perfect area to eat, drink , chat and chill. The padock was loved by our two dogs who chased each other around in a safe environment . All in all I would highly recommend Sykes lodge. Perfect position surrounded by beautiful countryside but still only a 5 min drive to Malton and close enough to other towns and villages. The outside are is well maintained and the hottub is perfect for relaxing . The house is quite simply fantastic and made for a perfect holiday for all the family and our two dogs .
A beautiful house, tastefully decorated and lots of thoughtful extras. We hope to return for a longer stay!
Lynsey
The photographs on the website do not do the place any justice. The main bedroom and ensuite was amazing and everyone agreed the beds were so comfortable and very clean.
Very high spec property. All beautifully maintained. The dog enclosure was very useful. A swimming pool would be a great addition. The large circular table accommodated us all comfortably, but had an alarming wobble. A very relaxing stay.
Philip
We had a fabulous time at Sykes Cottage. The property is beautiful and accommodated our group of 15 very well. The rooms were exactly as seen on the site and the outside space added to what was an overall wonderful family holiday. Alexandra and Michael, were always on hand to help with anything and made us feel very welcome. Would certainly recommend this property and while it was our first time to Yorkshire, I am sure it will not be our last!
What a fabulous property. Spacious and luxurious with everything you need and more. It was loved by all members of our multigenerational family, and the dogs too. The owners were lovely and welcoming, unobtrusively there when needed and even helped look after our dogs when we went out. Wonderful holiday!
Lovely property. As described no issues.
Catherine
What a beautiful weeks stay in such a fabulous house and grounds! We certainly made the most of the glorious weather we were so lucky to have by playing all the outdoor games provided in the gorgeous grass paddock along with our two dogs. We did a lot of lounging on the patio and dipped into the hot tub with iced aperyol spritz plenty of fridgefreezer space for refreshments!!! Said hello daily to the friendly horse and sheep who made for welcome company during the stay! Theres something rather magical bathing in a hot tub whilst gazing at a beautiful horse shaded under a tree in a sunny green field and then later to the countryside starry nights sky. We definitely made the most of the kitchen facilities of which there were plenty and nibbled most days, cooked most evenings and ventured out to The Stoned Trough which was delicious one evening. The bed was insanely comfy and all rooms furnished to such a tasteful and high quality. All the showers were hot, powerful and never fell short despite the number of people stayingusing them. We loved mooching about in the robes provided too, how can you not feel relaxed and in holiday mode in a robe!! The local walks we had were all delightful, down at Kirkham Abbey and along a couple of the rivers nearby. The footpath maps online are most certainly not a 100 given so we did come across a few fields overgrown over path with nettlesrape seed which we embraced, some more willingly than others! All in all a tremendous holiday, enjoyed by both Hens for the initial weekend and then my family for the remainder of the week. Thank you so much for the hospitality of Alexandra and Michael. Firstly for creating such a wonderful place to stay we ALL enjoyed looking through the book! and being so accommodating with our very few needs. All the best.
From the minute you enter the property & see the beautiful garden & surroundings you know this property is well cared for. Inside the attention to detail is perfect. Tastefully restored, but we'll equipped with all mod cons. Beautiful property, great stay. It was a celebration for our Golden Wedding, perfect memories
Philip
Amazing, well refurbished property with very accommodating owners always ready to help out if needed. Perfect for a large family with separate areas if needed for a bit of quiet time.
Fantastic cottage Had everything we needed for an amazing weekend Thank you
Annalie
Absolutely amazing! A gorgeous cottage it is huge!! And it was so stylish and we all wanted to stay longer what a weekend we had and one we wont forget
Elizabeth
We had a fantastic long weekend for my 70th birthday. The property was extremely comfortable and well equipped and the children enjoyed the hot tub. We would definitely consider staying at Sykes Lodge again in the future.
Awesome property. Lots of space and great facilities. Great location with many attractions nearby. The owners were extremely helpful and friendly and just a phone call away if needed. Would definitely recommend.
Claire
We had a really lovely stay, the house is amazing and Micheal and Alexandra were always so helpful and prompt when we had only very minor issues! The space was perfect for our big family holiday and the hot tub was an added bonus! Thank you, we would definitely stay there again!
Amazing property that was perfect for 13 adults for a university reunion. The kitchen facilities are excellent, it was great to have 2 ovens and another combi oven. The large round kitchen table was perfect for meal times and for playing games. It could fit all 13 of us comfortably. We loved spending time in the hot tub, it was great we could also play music through the speakers! Our hosts were very welcoming and gave me a guided tour of all rooms and facilities on arrival. They were at hand almost instantly when the door handle came off to one of the bedrooms and to provide some additional bin bags & dishwasher tablets. I would definitely return to this property, the photos dont do it justice!
Amazing !!! House was beautiful,perfect for our different family groups. Lots to do within 1 hr travel local supermarkets great and a cheap petrol garage. Cannot find fault fabulous relaxed time had by all.
The house is lovely and its obvious it has been designed with care and attention to detail. Retaining some of the original features adds to the character and the layout provides privacy as well as excellent communal spaces. We had gorgeous weather so made the most of the outside space which was perfect for large gatherings. Furnishings and equipment etc were first class.
Allisha
This was the best property we have ever stayed in, the character and detail to modernise it and the effort and cleverness in the layout had something for us all! The rooms all had different character and the beds were all 10 out of 10 for comfort! The views and private land to play in added a complete tranquil of relaxation to our stay and fun for the children with the girls games provided, sitting and watching the horse and sheep with the sun shining was beautiful! Would highly recommend the only regret we have is not staying longer a week would be perfect to add some fun days out as we just didnt want to leave the amazing property! Thank you so much!
A lovely house and very well kept in a great position to explore Yorkshire
Fantastic place, a credit to the owners. Nothing too much trouble.
We had a lovely stay at Sykes Lodge perfect for our family gathering. Thank you for being so attentive during our stay and responsive with the plumbing issues and getting the BBQ out so promptly when the weather took a turn for the better ! The welcome pack was also a nice touch.
Family of 12 stayed at the lodge over the weekend of 25th March 2022. The property is beautiful and all the extra details make it a really special place to stay. The house was spotless and the facilities are superb. The communication received from Alexandra prior to our stay was brilliant and nothing was too much trouble. Michael assisted us during our stay and again nothing was too much trouble. We would not hesitate to return we had an amazing stay. Thank again Alexandra and Michael!
Alison
We had a wonderful half term break at Sykes Lodge, despite the awful weather. The house is absolutely beautiful and had plenty of areas where the children could go and chill, as well as the adults. We were really well looked after from Alexandra and Michael, lots of communication, we even received weather and travel updates on the storms. Thank you for a fantastic stay.
Second time weve stayed here, another brilliant time in a really nice house and location! Stayed in a number of similar places in the UK and this place is certainly the best setup for a large group Thanks again for a wonderful stay
Amazing stay! ! We booked Sykes Lodge as a mixed age group celebrating a family 30th birthday and could not have been happier with the property. The Lodge is extremely well appointed, everything we wanted was at hand and the owners went out of their way to make us welcome. We will definitely be back and would wholeheartedly recommend.
Sykes Lodge was absolutely amazing! The bedrooms where stunning and large open plan lounge and kitchen was beautiful! We couldnt highly recommend Sykes Lodgea enough!! We had an amazing time and will definitely be back!!
Lovely maintained property, helpful owners. Complimentary basket of teabags, coffee, crisps, milk and water in the fridge was a lovely gesture. We had a fab girls weekend away. Would recommend the lodge to friends and family will certainly return.
Amazing holiday, beautiful home and great hosts! Would highly recommend!
The lovely owners welcomed us in person, then gave us a guided tour which was very helpful, because we were left in no doubt as to how everything works and what was available to us. After that, we were left to enjoy the property very privately. The welcome pack was indeed welcome and the house is wonderful. Whilst the photographs are very good, the reality is even better. The kitchen is superbly well equipped, with every accessory anyone could possibly need. Malton is very close by and convenient for supplies. We had the impression that if there had been any issue with our stay, the owners would have resolved it immediately. We cannot find a single fault with our stay and are very happy indeed to have had the experience.
Stunning cottage with very helpful owners. We went with a group of friends and everyone loved their rooms. There was plenty to suit everyone. The hot tub was a definite hit but for those who didn't fancy it the large sitting room with a fire was great and having use of the paddock was great for games.
William
Brilliant place for a break away.
Kishor
Lovely property inside and out. Hot tub nice, clean and really spacious. Kitchen has pretty much everything you would need a microwave would be handy it think. Owners are really nice and very helpful, nothing too much trouble for them. Location is ideal to visit the many attractions within 3045mins drive. All members of our party really enjoyed our stay.
Absolutely fantastic! A beautiful lodge with amazing surroundings. Our party ranged from 11yrs old to almost 80yrs old and we all thoroughly enjoyed our stay. The owners live on site and nothing was too much trouble, they had thought of everything! The rooms were all decorated to an amazing standard and each room had a leaflet to explain the history on the room. Cannot wait to go back!!
Michael
This is a great property with excellent facilities and equipment. However, what makes it really special is when the property is combined with the lovely owners. They really want their guests to have an amazing time!
Matthew
The property is wonderful and has everything you need and easily accommodates large parties. Great location and local town with some great gastro pubs & restaurants.
We stayed as a group of 6, one of the best properties that we have EVER stayed in! Alexandra the owner is fabulous, super helpful and efficient. The property was perfect, kitchen was so well equipped, we wanted for nothing. All individual bedrooms with different themes. Living room was cozy with the real fire and the outdoor hottub a real treat, sumptuous bath robes and slippers also provided. Attention to detail was second to none, no expense has been spared on this property. Close to all local amenities, York and the East Coast. We are already planning our next visit for December this year. Thank you, thank you, thank you!

Situated in Malton in North Yorkshire this has to be one of our favourite family days out.  It's a theme park and zoo all in one stretching over a massive 400 acres. With thrilling rides for the very daring like Cliff Hanger, Corkscrew and Kumali, there are also more gentle rides for the little ones such as Frog Hopper and Helitoys.  Family fun attractions include the 4D cinema, the lost river ride and the Little Monsters Den of Mischief.

This all weather attraction caters for toddlers and children up to 12 years old with a huge array of climbing equipment, ball pools, slides, chutes and adventure areas. Adults can relax and enjoy a coffee and a snack while the kids are having fun.  The site also has a large and rather impressive outdoor area with pet zone and pedal track with Go karts. There is also a pond with fish and a sensory zone where children can touch and feel new and interesting things.
York Maze - YO19 5LT
about 13 Miles
If you are enjoying a lodge holiday in Yorkshire then a visit to York Maze is a must! This summertime attraction is now one of the most popular in the region offering fun for the whole family. The maze has been improved this year and is now bigger and better than ever before. Carved from an amazing 1.5 million growing maize plants it is thought to be the largest maze in the world! As well as the maze itself the site boasts an adventure playground, 9 hole crazy golf courses and an animal petting area where children can meet the cute and friendly animals that eat the maize and watch pig racing! Tractor and trailer rides around the maize are also available and are recommended for those with young children.
Jorvik Viking Centre - YO1 9WT
about 14 Miles
Jorvik Viking Centre is a fun and educational attraction offering visitors the chance to learn all about the Viking-Age city of Jorvik. Thanks to the Archaeologists from York Archaeological Trust the amazing houses, workshops and backyards of the Viking-Age city of Jorvik are on display and give a clear insight to the way of life all those years ago.  The site aims to offer an interactive experience with the state of the art time capsule and the blacksmith's furnace being the top attractions.

Within the site is a discovery centre, several pits filled with Roman and Medieval ruins and a science lab where children can take part in exciting experiments. Staff are on hand at all times to help the children and to ensure they get the most from the experience. The attraction can get busy during school holidays and pre booking is recommended.
Betton Farm Visitor Centre - TF9 3PS
about 17 Miles
Betton Farm Visitor Centre is the ideal attraction close to the North Yorkshire coastal town of Scarborough. This animal farm has all the cute farm animals you would expect to see and will appeal to younger children especially.  A great place to both play and learn we think the Betton Farm Visitor centre is great value for money.  Check out their website for the latest opening times and admission costs.  Some of the highlights of the day might include meeting Sofie the Shetland Pony and Henry the goat, as well as the pot bellied pigs called Porky and Hammy. 
Stillingfleet Lodge Gardens - YO19 6HP
about 20 Miles
A day trip to Stillingfleet Lodge Gardens is the perfect way to relax with several gardens to explore in the grounds of a historic farmhouse. The gardens were established 30 years ago and each has something different to offer. Expect to find dramatic displays of foliage and flowers as well as beautifully landscaped areas. Families will enjoy the woodland which leads to a wildlife pond and a beautiful wildflower meadow.

Scarborough Sea Life and Marine Sanctuary - YO12 6RP
about 21 Miles
If you are enjoying a lodge break in the Yorkshire Moors and Coast then a day trip to the Scarborough Sea Life and Marine Sanctuary highly recommended. This centre is one of the regions most popular attractions and is educational as well as fun. Visitors will enjoy a journey beneath the waves, meeting many strange, beautiful and fascinating creatures of the deep. As well as mighty sharks and beautiful rays guests can get up close to some more common creatures including star fish and can also meet the otters, seals and penguins at feeding time. The site also has children's play area and picnic tables as well as a restaurant and souvenir shop. Family tickets cost £46.80 but the Tourist Information Centres in Scarborough, Whitby or Filey often offer fantastic discounts.
The Grainary Wildlife Farm - YO25 3HS
about 21 Miles
Located in Harwood Dale Village, North Yorkshire we think this attraction makes a superb family day out and couples will also enjoy the nature walks in the area.  There are 6 nature walks in total surrounding the farm so walkers and lovers of the outdoors will be in their element. Some of our favourite walks include the Spring Flowers, Pond and Village walk which takes around 35 minutes, and the Meadow and Trees walk which takes one hour.
Sea Life Marine Sanctuary - YO12 6RP
about 21 Miles
Located in the Scalby Mills area of Scarborough this makes a fun family day out for those who are interested in marine life. The fantastic ocean tank is well worth seeing - it's been transformed into a Turtle Reef and you can see an amazing array of colourful reef fish and coral. You may also catch a glimpse of the tropical sharks and turtles. Offering good value for money this is a day out with a difference and an all weather attraction.
Peasholm Park - YO12 6QQ
about 21 Miles
This attraction is ideal for sunny days as the beautiful park is ideal for wandering out and taking in the scenery.  You can hire boats including rowing boats and canoes to enjoy the views from the water.  The pedalos with the dragon heads are always a popular choice too. Look out for special events including the Battle of Peasholm Park Naval Battle which has been described as a "must see".  You can also take a ride on the North Bay Railway which will delight children.
