    What our customers say about their holidays

    • Janet - Verified booking

      We really enjoyed our stay at this wonderful, comfy and characterful cottage.

      it was spotlessly clean, excellently equipped and felt like a home from home. All the bedrooms were spacious and welcoming, and having the ground floor bedroom and adjacent shower room was ideal and much appreciated by our 80+ year old aunt. The location in a quiet village is great for local walks and relaxing and it made a great base to explore the North York Moors, local gardens and historic sites as well as bustling market towns. There's a pub and 2 eateries but no shop in the village, but there is a fantastic farm shop just 5 minutes drive away. Our only suggestions to make it even better are to provide a few more cereal and dessert bowls (we kept running out), and to provide some alternative lighter weight duvets or blankets as we were lucky enough to visit during the heatwave when 12tog duvets were far too hot! The listing could also be clearer about the patio and garden access. We enjoyed using the paved patio area up a few steps and OK for our elderly aunt to reach. But we were a bit disappointed that there is not yet any better access and no sitting area in the pretty side lawn - but appreciate that this may be to minimise any risk of disturbance to neighbours. Overall Auburn House is a delightful cottage that we'd happily recommend to others in search of a relaxing and cosy base for exploring wonderful North Yorkshire.

      Sykes Staff have been nothing but friendly and accommodating, they were not to fault for our unsatisfactory stay.

      The property however had dust webs left in corners (despite cleaners) and offered no QR code/Covid guidelines, no antibacterial hand wash or sanitiser (good job we took our own). We were greeted by a wasps nest by the front door obviously using the property’s roof. The door with its large double glass windows offered no privacy from passers by using the shared drive and communal laundry room given the fact the shower and toilet were right behind it which resulted in us having to hang a towel over the door. The pictures of the garden were misleading. It clearly shows a grass area which had been cordoned off and belonged to another property which only left the stoned area you see in the pictures which would have been fantastic if it weren’t for the fact they are not friendly to the paws of our fury friends which meant our pet friendly get away wasn’t in fact so pet friendly at all and his off lead play time went out the window. The directions to the property are not clear, even using ‘what four words’ we had difficulty. In the end we were forced to contact Sykes which then had to contact the owners who added another couple of steps to the directions. Frankly if it weren’t for the fact we had to rely on a family member for travel and our signal was so spotty we never would have stayed.

      The kitchen of Auburn House is well equipped.

      the house is clean but those are the only good points. Problems: The house is cold and it is impossible to heat it to a normal 20C as the thermostat, in a tiny, unlit passage has been set so that it goes off & returns to 9C after a short interval. There is a woodturner in the kitchen, 4 logs, 4 pieces of coal, firelighters & 3 pieces of kindling were supplied.3 uninsulated outer doors, one with gaps do not help. Sittingroom with gas fire but single glazed windows!. Dated decor, with old furniture (from sale room?) tarmac outside space, no usable garden for summer guests. General air of meaness & lack of welcome - lots of locked cupboards, information sheets telling guests not to put sticky hands on the sofas !No welcome pack. Warn winter guests to bring lots of logs, hot water bottles and winter clothes! This was by far the worst of Sykes properties that we have booked over the years. Auburn House - never again!

    • Bart - Verified booking

      We really loved our stay in this little cottage, the cottage has been finished to a high level with comfortable furniture.

      It is in a great location to relax for a long weekend. We enjoyed dinner at the nearby Pheasant Hotel and walks along the river to Nunnington and chilled in the yard in front of the cottage. A couple of things that could be improved... the check-in and check-out times are not great, 6 pm check-in is very late. The dining table is not very usable and it would be great to be able to use some of the gardens of Holly Cottage as sitting in the sun on a bench is not the same as a bit of soft grass. But overall a great experience with some small improvements to make the stay even better.

    • Ed - Verified booking

      We had a good time in the house.

      Two things only would have improved things. 1 Better signage to say Auburn House as photo view provided from side of house only visble looking back not forwards as went up road. As no number satnav unable to locate place accurately and bigger swinging sign in garden would have helped. It was only visible high up in brickwork! (2)The weather was cold at times and central heating only came on in middle of night or very late anyway, so needed better timings on it as these were locked away! Nevertheless, a really excellent place nice and clean that we hope to return to another time.
