Easy to book through the app but very difficult to then make a part payment towards your holiday. Sometimes the part payment box appears to let you enter the amount you want to pay but not always, the last couple of days I can't get it to appear at all it'll only let me pay the full remaining balance not a part payment.

Had a great week at Mirk cottage. The property is beautifully finished, and the owner was very helpful when we needed new batteries for the TV remote!! We would definitely recommend Mirk cottage to anyone wanting to stay in the area, and will definitely use it again when we return.

Downloaded after booking a holiday. The info shown for the booking is incorrect, but correct on their website. Email Sykes with screenshot of incorrect info and they replied the Web version is correct. UPDATE1. SYKES IT contacted me regarding this and I believe this will be amended in future update. UPDATE2, Used app to try and make payment of first half of balance, in large numbers it stated correct£, only after card details entered my bank app wanted to give approval of whole amount. AWFUL!
