What our customers say about their holidays

  It is a shame you have to give a score to the place out of 5.

  As it wasn't 5 out of 5. It was close with a few exceptions. Firstly, parking - The location presents it's own challenges. We managed it, no problem. We did see a lot of people other people, including residents, having problems. Secondly, as soon as you enter the property, you get this slightly damp smell, which you encounter when you have had floodwater damage. It is not a new smell, but an old smell, which is hard to eradicate. It is clear the owners have addressed this issue with flood defences. Thirdly and lastly, we had a few fixtures and fittings that were in need of tightening. No big issue, as I had a few tools and we sorted them. Other than that the place was perfect. Very comfy beds. Perfect after a long day's walk.

  I would just like to say a very big Thankyou to Justin the owner of Holmerigg and Sykes holidays.

  We really enjoyed our stay at Holmerigg, it was exactly as described on Sykes website, but so much more, on arrival, we were happy to see how clean it was, and it was also very comfortable, with the luxury of two bathrooms. Car Parking was also no problem. having the village shop right next door meant we didn’t have to travel far to get essentials. Also the property owner Justin kept in touch with me which was lovely. Braithwaite is a lovely quiet village and a perfect place to stay when touring round the Lake District. Yes I would recommend a stay at Holmerigg, I would love to stay there again.

  Holme Rigg was comfortable and well equipped.

  Braithwaite is lovely, a good base for a Lakes holiday. Our issue was that we were not notified that there was major renovation work going on in an adjoining property with building noise starting as early as 7:30 every week day. On top of that the road running over the bridge was being resurfaced all week and again we had heavy lorries, rollers and workmen starting shortly after 7am during the week, Sykes need to ensure their cottage owners make them aware of potential disturbances like that as we thought we’d picked a peaceful location.

  A lovely house and well equipped.

  We really enjoyed our stay. We would recommend that the listing makes it clear that parking is on the road on a first come basis. We struggled throughout and with room for up to 5 adults, a party with more than one car will struggle. We also couldn’t initially find the bins and there was no recycling advice. The main bin was also full. Finally, there was an electrical problem with the kitchen sockets which we think is related to the dishwasher. We reported that directly to Skye’s by phone & email before we left.
