"What a lovely place."
It was absolutely immaculate. Very well presented.
We had everything we needed. Tea, sugar, coffee and milk provisions already there. Which is useful, as you never know on these trips.
So, 10 out of 10!

"We thoroughly enjoyed our stay at 2 Kings Yard."
The property is well situated in this lovely small town. As soon as we stepped through the door we felt at home - the decoration is homely yet uncluttered and very welcoming. The kitchen is very well equipped with everything we needed for our stay. The rooms are over 3 floors with steepish stairs which worked well for us with older children but might have been difficult with mobility issues or very young children. We absolutely loved the house and would certainly recommend it and may well book a return visit.
Thank you so much for the positive review, Jennie. I’m pleased that you liked the house and even more importantly the delightful town of Sedbergh.
You are right about the stairs which is why, after earlier feedback, we installed hand grab rails to the first floor. This is why we welcome feedback from our guests, so thank again for taking the time to do this.
I hope we can welcome you back again!
Best wishes.

"2 Kings Yard is a lovely property in the centre of Sedbergh, with everything within walking distance."
Despite being in the centre of the town it’s very quiet. It’s beautifully maintained with quality fixtures and fittings and everything you need to self cater. The beds are comfy with quality bedding and towels, and the showers are good.
The only downside is the small lounge area, but this didn’t bother us.
Very good communication with the owner.

Sedbergh itself is a great place to have a break and as a base to explore the Yorkshire Dales or nearby Lake District. Lots of lovely walks in the area. We are alkready thinking about our next booking.

"2 Kings Yard is a perfect cottage to get away from the hustle & bustle of life."
The cottage is spotlessly clean & and everything is provided for your stay. All household needs are intuitively located—no hunting around in drawers/cupboards. Everything is where you think it would be!
And the beds! Beyond comfortable. Hotel-standard bedding & towels provided.
Great info basket on local walks & local history Location perfect for accessing The Lakes. Sedbergh is a lovely sweet town, thou it feels like a village. Coffee shops, pubs, Chippy. Traditional sweet shop -that is VERY popular. A few nice shops to browse. Our dog, Betty loved the " Pepperpot walk" every morning. Friendly local folk. One issue that may be important for some is you cannot park outside the cottage. Parking is three minutes away. But not an issue. Overall the best Sykes Cottage so far!

Tucked away from the main road but close to local amenities as well as beautiful walks. With spacious bedrooms, two bathrooms and a downstairs toilet, it was the perfect retreat for a family with two teenagers. The silence was golden and the views were gorgeous.

"We only used for B&B as we were visiting with family who live in the village."
Cottage was warm and had all the facilities we would want if staying longer and using it as our holiday home. Top floor shower took a while to get any pressure but that is to be expected in such a property, also the flexible shower head bracket needs attention as it will not keep the head upright. Rain shower works fine. The stairs would not be suitable for anyone with mobility problems due to their curve and steepness. Grab handles are there to use on one side. The property has been converted as well as possible considering it's age and style of construction. We would be very happy to stay there again. The kitchen is really well equipped and nicely laid out although we never got to use it much.
Thank you so much for your detailed feedback; it really does help. We will address the various comments where possible, although as you say, in some respects we are constrained by the property itself. I hope we can welcome you with a small gift should you be able to visit again.

"This is an absolute gem of a cottage."
Very well equipped (super sharp knives...a rarity in holiday cottages!), views of the fells from bedrooms, comfortable beds and lovely bathrooms.
The area itself has many wonderful walks from the door, both easy and more challenging and lots of information was provided in the cottage about activities/walks. Very good grocers in the town and some good pubs.
The only negative (and not really a big one) is no parking space at the cottage itself but the parking permit provided for the two (very nearby) carparks worked a treat.
Thank you for the feedback Janice. So glad you enjoyed the house and the town and the lovely walks. As you say, parking a short walk away is not perfect, but we try to make that clear before people book.

"The property was perfectly situated right in the centre of the village but still tucked away enough to be private."
The facilities were great and there were lots of cooking tools and accessories, everything you could need. The living area is a bit snug if you were 6 in the house but we were only 4 so it was fine. Communication from Paul the owner was excellent and very helpful. All in all a great stay, would recommend. Thank you.
Thank you so much for providing feedback Gillian, and I'm so glad you enjoyed your stay.
We agree that the living area is too small for 6 people to be comfortable, which is why, despite having 3 double bedrooms, we restrict numbers to a maximum of 4 guests :-).
Hope you can return sometime, perhaps for more cricket!

"Super cottage, tastefully renovated and comfortably presented."
Sedbergh ideally situated at the foot of the Fells. Lots of local dog friendly walks and several tasty eateries. All dog friendly, except for the Dalesman. We crossed the road instead and had two delicious meals at the very welcoming Red Lion.
Convenient for exploring the Lakes and definitely recommend the drive from Sedbergh to Ribblehead Viaduct, stunning views.
Thank you for such a comfortable stay and would definitely love to visit again, one day.

It is so beautifully decorated. All the rooms were so cozy and inviting. Don’t know if we’ve ever stayed anywhere with such a well supplied kitchen. We really enjoyed cooking in the kitchen. And all the pretty dishes made our meals that much more fun!
The instructions booklet was so helpful. I’ve also never encountered a home stay where such detail is left to answer any questions. The walk guides and local suggestions are also great. We didn’t realize how much Sedbergh had to offer and enjoyed the shops and pubs just a few steps away.
So glad you enjoyed your stay. Thank you for taking the time to provide feedback; it is much appreciated.

Beautiful cottage in a lovely friendly town, tucked away from the main street, 2 minutes walk away ( if that) from Sedbergh centre which had enough facilities to keep most people happy...the Red lion Inn was amazing with great food and a friendly atmosphere from locals and tourists alike! 2 Kings Yard couldn't of been any better, very comfortable and cosy with amazing bathrooms and the comfiest beds I've ever slept in,brilliant wi-fi which will please any youngsters who may stay there....in our opinion, perfectly located for a great holiday...tip for future guests, we travelled in 2 cars and found plenty of on street parking both in Bainbridge Road & Highfield Road and never had to use the parking permit once during our stay although it was out of season so may be different in summer but car park is only 3 minutes walk away so wouldn't be an issue....one suggestion would be some kind of hand rail on the staircase as they are quite steep, not a problem for younger people but could be a problem for the less mobile
Thank you for a great holiday and we look forward to our return!!

"We had an extremely enjoyable and comfortable stay at 2 Kings Yard: the property being very thoughtfully presented and well equipped, particularly the kitchen."
Such a luxury to have a set of sharp knives! A rarity in rental properties in my experience.
The bedrooms are thoughtfully decorated and cozy; my teenage son declaring his bed the most comfortable he’s slept in! Both bathrooms have superb showers.
The only negative of the stay was that previous guests had not put out the refuse bin for collection which was crammed full on our arrival.
I will be recommending 2 King’s Yard to friends and family, should they be staying in the Sedbergh area.
Thank you so much for the positive feedback! I'm sorry the bin was crammed full; we do rely on guests putting the bins out (fortnightly), and I try to remind them when this is due. Unfortunately, the guests prior to your stay didn't respond to my messages so perhaps hadn't receive them. We hope to welcome you back to Sedbergh again; I'll be sure to keep the knives sharp in case you do! Best wishes. Paul

We will be back :) As pro photographers, avid hikers, one ultra runner and cyclists we found the area amazing, less crowded, very close to the hills and beautiful. Very relaxing break, with walks right from the door. We loved the house and everything inside was amazing. The bed was as a good as any 5 star chain we’ve used, such as Banyan Tree or Shangri-la. Roll-top high-back bath was amazing, as was the bathrooms design decor. Attention to detail of the owner was everywhere, even in the small details of kitchen facilities (pots, pans, and even the little items that you appreciate being there, but that they were high quality too). We loved the ability to get to the lakes a couple of days, and that we could hike or run up into the How Gills from the door. Italian Restaurants, cafe, gastro pub, shop, bakery/coffee house and fish and chip shop are all very high quality. Take your pick you can’t go wrong. Worth every penny. We enjoyed our stay immensely.
