Thank you for your helpful replies. The reason I wanted to make an effort myself is that I can cross-promote the cottage with our other business if I can quickly and easily take them to the cottage page. If I was to say to my contacts search 'xxxx cottage' on Sykes they'd find that the search facili...

2 questions about Sykes & yes I know you are not fans!
We are giving Sykes a go - I know that there are a lot of detractors here and maybe I'll be joining them in 12 months time but we are giving them a try. You can say 'told you so' in unison when I come back to have a grumble later. I have 2 questions that I hope someone can help with I expect that th...

Great, thank you for that - I'll take a look now. I'm guessing that I'm going to find negative scenarios on Trust Pilot and Lay My Hat because the people that are happy with Sykes don't really have anything to say whereas people with issues will be grumbling loudly. Are there are any happy Sykes cli...

Can you give me the pros and cons of going with Sykes please
We are green newbies about to buy a cottage that is already with Sykes and at the moment we can't see any reason why we shouldn't continue with them.

Letting companies that allow you to find your own bookings?
Hi there - I'm new and could do with a bit of hand holding please.
My first query is that I've seen the same property on AirB&B and Sykes, I assume that this is permitted?
Are there any other agencies that let you do your own thing as well as use their services?
TIA, Gill
