    “A letter of complaint is going to Sykes Cottages regarding the damp walls, broken en-suite toilet, leaking boiler, lifting laminate and leaking guttering.”

    It does not appear that this bungalow has been checked by Sykes at all.

    Very disappointed with this review. Everything in the property was brand new and immaculately clean when you arrived. This is a newly renovated property, the windows and guttering are less than 12 months old. Unfortunately you stayed during a week of storms. This is nothing to do with the guttering. The bathrooms are new, on inspection we have found one loose screw on the back of the toilet which has now been tightened. There was a problem with the boiler 3 days into your stay, which is obviously outside of our control. You reported the leaking boiler to Sykes at 11 am and a plumber attended the property at 1.30 pm to replace the broken part. Unfortunately during this 2 1/2 hour period you had left water spilling onto the kitchen floor, which has caused the laminate flooring in the kitchen to lift, which we will now need to replace. Obviously Sykes had checked the property as it is a new listing. I have read your letter of complaint and it appears to me you are just looking for a free holiday. Property Owner

About the location

KIRKBY-IN-FURNESS

Broughton-in-Furness 5 miles; Ulverston 5 miles.

Kirkby-in-Furness is a collection of six hamlets on the Furness peninsula overlooking the Duddon estuary. The village is home to a general store and two pubs as well as a railway station on the Cumbrian Coast Line. Just five miles away is Broughton-in-Furness which has much to please the visitor such as a pretty, cobbled square complete with a splendid horse chestnut tree, enclosed by shops, pubs and homes. The village provides an ideal base for a walking or climbing holiday, with ample opportunity to explore the rugged beauty of the Duddon Valley and the quieter Lake District fells. East of Kirkby-in-Furness is the ancient market town of Ulverston which still holds a street market every Thursday and Saturday. Today it’s well known as a festival town with events throughout the year, including walking and art festivals in the summer months and the renowned Dickensian festival in late November. One of the town’s great claims to fame is as the birthplace of Stan Laurel - it is now home to the only Laurel and Hardy museum in the world! Facilities include a wide range of shops, cafes, restaurants and pubs, a cinema and a leisure centre. All of the attractions of the National Park are easily reached and nearby family attractions include the World of Beatrix Potter, the Ravenglass and Eskdale Railway, the South Lakes Wild Animal Park and Muncaster Castle.
