When making the booking I booked from 31st May for 5 nights leaving 5th June. The email confirmation stated arriving 30th May for 5 nights leaving 4th June which isn't what I booked. When I tried to get in touch i was forwarded to Sykes who's customer service has been very poor. I contacted Sykes on 16th May and yet to receive a response to resolve the issues.

Hi Mr Gribbon,
Thank you for taking the time to share your feedback. We’re very sorry to hear about the confusion with your booking dates and the difficulties you’ve experienced trying to resolve this.

As a booking platform, we work with our partner providers to manage reservations, and we’re sorry to hear that your experience with follow-up support has not met expectations so far.
We’d really like to help ensure this is properly looked into for you. Please contact us at support@dogfriendlycottages.co.uk with your booking reference so we can review this with the relevant partner and assist further.

The property I'd been searching for on…
The property I'd been searching for on many different sites popped up on yours. I had used this property in the past and on different cottage sites including yours, I had tried to find it again but I was unable to type in the name to locate it. I did have some problems trying to pay the deposit, the postcode kept being "taken off" even though the full address was listed. It took 3 tries to pay. Also when I was using different sites including yours, I found that the filters were not specific enough ie. entering 3 bedrooms needed, I got 2 bedroom properties shown and entering 2 bathrooms I got 1 bathroom shown. I don't remember this confusion when I've been looking in the past

Easy to use - better than Sykes
Easy to use. Once requirements have gone in (along with details of "Drive Time" limitations|) , then seeing the availability on a Map is a great bonus. Being able to confirm the Drive Time using Location Postcode is a definite game changer. Don't get either of these benefits with Sykes.
