Active members of the group may wish to venture beyond the wrap-around courtyard with its seasonal colourful flower borders and exotic summer planters to the adjacent paddock for the exclusive use of guests to enjoy fun and games or some off-lead romping for the dogs. Access to the surrounding parkland is by arrangement with the property owner. There is parking available for up to 10/12 cars with immediate access to Sykes Lodge with additional parking available.

Natalie

The house was absolutely perfect. A group of us stayed here for a week and it was everything I had hoped for and more. The property owners were great and sorted a couple of requests out immediately. There was plenty of room for everyone to have their own space as well as large social areas. We loved the hot tub. The location is great, enough into the country to feel away from everything but only a 10 minute drive into the local town. I would love to come back one day.

Maureen

An outstanding property in a picturesque area of Yorkshire! This spacious, beautifully presented accommodation exceeded our expectations it had everything we needed for a very memorable family holiday. The enclosed grassed area was perfect for 6 young grandchildren to safely run and play in, the dog loved it too! Hot tub was a great hit with Mums and Dads! Alexandra and Michael were excellent hosts, responding happily to any requests or questions, which we really appreciated. This was a very special holiday which has given us many wonderful memories to cherish! Thank you so much Alexandra and Michael, we hope to return soon!

Lovely property, bang up to date and in a great situation for that part of Yorkshire. Super for a family get together.

Sykes Lodge was the ideal property for our extended family gathering. We were lucky with the weather but even if this had not been the case the proximity to so many attractions, York, Scarborough we went on the train and Malton on the doorstep 3 miles ensures that there is always something to do. In addition the size of the property allows everyone to choose between activities and relaxation. The owners are on hand to help out if required but provide a comprehensive welcome pack which explains everything as well.

Gordon

One of the best cottages we have stayed in. Alexandra the owner could not be more helpful and nice to receive an email direct as this owner really does care that you have a great stay. Thanks very much a wonderful stay and the use of one of your fields for the little and big kids to play cricket.

Lauren

Our Sykes Lodge review: Stayed for my Sisters Hen do for 3 nights and had an amazing stay. The house is to a very high standard and has pretty much everything you will need in the kitchen for cooking and cleaning. The only thing I would say is whilst there is alot of cooking equipment there were no basic oven trays to cook with and had to use roasting pans etc instead which is obviously fine but these were heavy so only a few people were able to cook each day. We also noticed that the WiFi password in the kitchen was spelt incorrectly with 1 h instead if 2 but this was easy enough to figure out. Other than that we had a wonderful weekend and would definitely come back. All the rooms were beautifully made up and the beds were very comfortable, the mattresses are nice and firm and the bathrooms were very clean and wonderful to relax in.

We stayed at Sykes Lodge last weekend. The house is simply stunning! Large spacious areas all renovated and decorated to a high standard. The kitchen is a great size to socialise and everything you need for a stay with friends and family including a large round sociable dining table. The beds are very comfortable, again all styled beautifully especially the main bedroom which has a stunning large bathroom with bath and wet room shower. The weather was kind to us so we were able to take advantage of the outdoor areas, hot tub and bbq. The only issue we had was with the green button on the hot tub which were warned about, unfortunately one of our guests pressed it so it took out the power in part of the house but as I said it was our fault so not a major problem. Maybe a sign on the button could be added and advise where the circuit board is located. All in all we had an fabulous weekend with friends and would not hesitate to return and recommend to others. The local town is just a few minutes drive away. Thanks again for a great stay!

Michelle

Sykes Lodge exceeded our expectations. It is a beautiful property with brilliant original features that make it such an interesting place to stay. All our needs were catered for with ample amounts of everything cups, glasses, cutlery etc. The property had lovely spacious communal areas which is perfect for a large group. The grounds were beautiful and the horses and chickens were very lovely to admire in the nearby fields. The hot tub and decking area was a fantastic space to sit outside and relax. The hosts were very informative on arrival and responsive to any query. Which was only an extra towel needed. I would recommend this property and would definitely come again.

A great place to stay for families! Plenty of room, discreet areas, kitchen well stocked with crockery, cutlery, ovens, fridges etc. The children loved playing hide and seek with all of the rooms. Very nice outside area although we were unable to benefit due to poor weather. The paddock is ideal for dog owners and we had two dogs and so perfect.

Christopher

We spent a week in this beautifully renovated property. It oozes with character and charm in every corner. Alexandra and Michael were exceptionally friendly and the 2 very minor issues we had during the week were tended to immediately. Every single room has its own style and whoever decorated these rooms certainly has an eye for design and detail. Without doubt the best rental property we have booked!
