I suppose you couldn't organise good weather every day too please, for next time!!
Seriously . Everything was great.
Mrs Cohen, Pinner,
Jul 2008 | Friendliness of the people. How central we were to the coast,National Park,and other places of interest.The weather was good,no rain,which made the holiday
even more enjoyable. Good pubs, with a wide variety of food. And lastly, the wide open spaces,good roads and
hardly any traffic.
And also,we mustn't forget Quince Cottage, beautiful. We shall be back.

Mr Rodgers, Glasgow, East Dunbartonshire
Oct 2007 | Quince Cottage is a fabulous holiday cottage. It is tastefully furnished, in an excellent location for visiting the Northumbria coast and other attractions and the owners were very considerate.
Mrs Hallam, Nottingham, Nottinghamshire
Sep 2007 | This was an excellent base for touring the many attractions to both south and north, coast and country. It is a magnificent area.
Mrs Bostock-Smith, Woodbridge, Suffolk
Aug 2007 | We had invited friends from Denmark to join us and we were so pleased that everything was presented at such a high standard. The welcome basket of milk, teabags, teacakes and honey, plus local newspaper was very kind and thoughtful. The owners of the cottage were also very warm and welcoming on our arrival which all helped to make us relaxed ready for our holiday. In addition we enjoyed lovely weather the whole week - what more could we ask for!?
There was honestly nothing more anyone could have done to improve our opinion of Quince cottage or of Sykes' organisation. Many thanks to all!
