Fabulous, luxurious property. Family bedroom was lovely and exciting for the children. Wonderful large dining table for everyone to sit round. Support the local fish and chip shop - all freshly cooked!!

My third visit to The Power House! As always, a very enjoyable time. Looking forward to coming back already.

We hired both Heritage Grove and the Powerhouse as one big house. This was perfect for our large group, giving us lots of space but the convenience of everything together. The property is stunning. We loved the staircase and all the special touches. This was another great holiday with Sykes and we would definitely recommend it.

The Power House was a very useful base for a holiday on the North Yorks Coast - a really convenient location. The owners were very friendly and helpful. Actually did have a really enjoyable time!

The house is very warm and spacious - ideal for a large family group like ours. We could all sit together in the lounge and we all fitted round the dining table with ease. The house is conveniently placed for the North Yorkshire moors and coast.

Loved the Moors and the coast. So much to see and do. The Power House has some really stunning features and beautiful furniture. Lots of care has been taken with the details; gorgeous luxurious quilt covers, stunning carved chairs in the hall, huge kitchen table for big group dinners and lazy breakfasts with the papers. Lots of comfy sofas, very comfy beds, well equipped kitchen. A lot of thought and effort has gone into this conversion. Would definitely recommend and return in the future.

The whole Sykes Cottages experience was excellent - attention to detail, furnishings, cleanliness and good representation of accommodation and area in brochure and on web site. All we can say is well done Sykes and Cottage Owners!
