• "Delightful!"

  Clean, well equipped and quiet despite being on a main road. Such easy access to York and surrounding area. Good local pubs, short walk to Tesco and easy bus journey to the rail station. Our week passed too quickly!

• "Absolutely beautifully presented cottage."

  Ian and Jenny couldn’t have done more, even the “Information Pack”, was very well documented. Property perfectly sited for walking into the wonderful City of York, or a few yards to a numerous choice of buses, which were clean, and very frequent. Lastly, a big thank you for a superb “Welcome Pack”. We will be back. Mike and my Senior Manager (The Wife), Brenda

• "This is the first property I've rented as holiday accommodation through Sykes and it sets the bar very high."

  The quality of the whole cottage is extremely good as was communicating with the owners regarding access to keys etc. Moreover, the property's information folder couldn't have been more informative. The icing on the cake was the cottage's location: on a short bus ride to the centre of York and with good facilities nearby. My next booking with Sykes has much to live up to!

• "This property should be the benchmark standard for all your properties!"

  It is perfect in every way and then more! Do yourself a favour and go and stay there! We have experienced a few of your properties in the past months and this one is far and away the best! Here are some things we appreciated: -price -location -space - excellent sized bed, excellent mattress, pillows and bedding -central heating that can be adjusted -a kitchen stocked like at home with nothing else required other than your food. -a washing machine and dishwasher -immaculately clean -a welcome hamper of British food - friendly hosts who made me feel comfortable to talk to and they also replied to every message asap. - plenty of information brochures - an elaborate instruction book on how to use every appliance. - off street parking -double glazed windows - a large shower cubicle with plenty of hot water and good pressure - light airy and spacious apartment - a Bluetooth media player/radio that allows us to play our own music - wifi that actually works very well.. unlike nearly every other place! -recliner chairs to lounge in Look after these people because they are the ones giving Sykes a good reputation!

  Their attention to detail for our comfort and convenience exceeded our expectations. The house has absolutely everything you need and more. We parked our car and it didn’t move until we came home. You can walk into York in no time. We had a trip to Leeds and Harrogate and walked to the train station in York in 30 minutes. However, there is a bus to both places less than 100 yards from the front door of the property. We will definitely go back and have no hesitation in recommending.

The bed is very comfortable with good quality bed linen. Although the cottage is on a main road it seemed very quiet at night and we were not disturbed by traffic noise. Buses stop close by, so we left the car in the private off-road parking space at the back of the cottage for part of the week. We also walked into the centre of York several times - strolling, it took us about 40 minutes, and is a pleasant, almost level walk. Stablefold is a fantastic place to stay and we would definitely book again if visiting York.
