Woodend Reviews

Christopher
To be honest we were,from reading recent reviews, a little concerned about this holiday but we turned up to a clean, bright, modern cottage. The smoke alarm was beeping but within 20 minutes it had been fixed. The kitchen was well provided but could do with a couple of pint glasses. It was odd having no live TV but with all the free ones and Netflix we didn't miss it. The small bedroom window still needs attention. We didn't have any issues with parking the whole week as it's a quiet little road. Outside had been tidied but left with empty planters after the season had finished. There were seat cushions but only quite small ones and a bit lost on the outside sofa. The bottom part of the garden is, as stated, shared access but noone used it except for taking the bin out for collection on Friday. On 1st use the hot tub had slightly too much chlorine and stung eyes. This dropped after the tub had been open for a couple of hours and wasn't an issue after this. Beds were comfy and bathroom lovely. Just needs some tweeks to make it that bit better.
Louise
This property is ideal for visiting all the local beaches and site seeing. The place was ok, but with some easy tweaks could be so much better. The cleaning team need replacing. The property was grubby. Dusty, cobwebs and spiders everywhere. Small bedroom window doesn't close and one of the sofa's springs coming through. The outside space, which is mostly why we picked this over others, hadn't been looked after for a long time. The cushion seating area was wet through, the cushions ruined, and we were unable to use. Virtually all the plants were dead and the paved area covered in debris from the trees, hadn't been swept for months. The hot tub, another reason we picked it, again was grubby and smelt massively of chemicals. Just really disappointed when it was expensive. Sadly wouldn't go again, this said the owner wouldn't have to do too much to make it so much better.
Debbie
The location of the property was perfect with a woodland walk opposite as we had our dog with us. We had a lovely holiday but with a few ammendments it would make the place much better. The property was clean inside, but one settee had broken springs, their could do with being more glasses in the kitchen, the window in the small bedroom did not close properly and the filter in the hot tub needed changingit said it was 12 days over due on the control panel.
Had a great time at Woodend. House was spotlessly clean and the welcome hamper was a nice touch. Loved the garden and hot tub. Ideal location for exploring Whitby, Scarborough, Staithes and Flaming Land. Great dog walks at nearby Stewart Park and Skinningrove beach which is a dog friendly hidden gem.
The house is lovely and well kept and was very clean. Unfortunately the previous tenants hadnt washed the crockery properly and it smelt as if they had been smoking. The garden was a real let down and it could have been so lovely. The pots and hanging baskets were full of dead plants and it needed a good brush.
Very disappointed. The property is not maintained to a satisfactory standard. The outside patio was not clean, with cobwebs all over the furniture, cigarette butts and beer bottle tops and table needed clearing before we could use it. All the plants in the patio were dead. Toilet seat was very loose and bulbs missing from the bedside lamps. One of the sofas was sunken and the springs sticking out underneath. We also discovered that the patio area is shared access to all the adjoining properties. If youre going to charge nearly a 1000 per week I would expect it to have been maintained to a much better standard. We wont be using Sykes cottages again. Ill be checking to see if you publish this feedback.
Great location with lots of walks close to the house. It would have been useful to have a key to the yard to avoid taking the dogs through the house to hose down. Yard had not been cleaned for a while and hot tub overdue for a good clean.
Georgina
Wonderful. Perfect location, cosy and faultless. Lovely 'welcome hamper' and the hot tub is amazing! Perfect base for exploring a beautiful area.
Catherine
Lovely house and very clean. hot tub fab. great welcome pack. The place is situated in an area which you can easily explore the east coast, good central location.
We had a wonderful stay. A really comfortable cottage with a super hot tub

The Grainary Wildlife Farm - YO25 3HS
about 20 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.
Flamingo Land - YO60 7EW
about 24 Miles
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. Check out their website for seasonal events which take place throughout the year and you can also gain more information about the zoo.  Flamingo Land is a resort as well as a theme park so you can also book accommodation there.
Scarborough Sea Life and Marine Sanctuary - YO12 6RP
about 25 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.
Sea Life Marine Sanctuary - YO12 6RP
about 25 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.
Betton Farm Visitor Centre - TF9 3PS
about 26 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. 
Peasholm Park - YO12 6QQ
about 26 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.
Castle Howard - YO60 7DA
about 29 Miles
Castle Howard is one of the regions most beautiful and historic landmarks and is located in 1,000 acres of parkland with breathtaking gardens to explore. As well as exploring the castle visitors can enjoy attractios including the unique Land Train - the best way to see the entire park. There is also a large lake offering boat trips during the summer months. In high season the site is very popular with families and offers organised activities for children including tours, talks, crafting and animal encounters. The site also has a Nature Trail which is fun for the whole family and an Adventure Playground where children can run off some energy.
Yorkshire Lavender - YO60 6PB
about 29 Miles
Yorkshire Lavender is an amazing award winning attraction offering breathtaking panoramic views of York, a Café, Plant Nursery and Lavender Gardens. The 60 acre site is set in an area of outstanding natural beauty and is an excellent choice for a day trip. The onsite shops sells Lavender products such as bath and body treats, skincare, medicine and herbal remedies.
